Cozy spot for 2 on Ocracoke
River City, an unofficial Naval term, is a communication blackout or restriction, where ships and units are temporarily disconnected from communication with the outside world. This is how we feel when we are finally able to enjoy "River" - we are able to complete disconnect with the outside world. The compact nature of the space allows to relax while we are in the apartment without getting caught up rambling around a large space. Ocracoke is meant to be enjoyed outside, not stuck in a house

Artsy Original Island Home next to Nature Preserve
Built in the 50's, located in a quiet neighborhood next to Springer's Nature Preserve, we kept the homey cozy granny decor. There is a generous screened porch for entertaining and dining.

The trail is a lovely path to the waterfront on the sound-side of the island, and home to impressive live oak trees, a historic graveyard, and the site of Blackbeard the Pirate's final battle!
