黑鬍子旅館(Blackbeard's Lodge)

We stayed here last minute one night with our two dogs when the ferry wasn’t running due to wind conditions. The woman at the front desk was incredibly friendly and gave us a printout with local restaurant info(there’s only a few). She was incredibly accommodating to the unexpected, last minute bookings. The room was just what we needed to have a good nights sleep after waiting in the car all day for the ferry.

Sherry and the rest of the staff where so awesome. We needed a golf cart for the day and they had them on property. Also ran into an issue and needed help getting locked keys in the car, and in need of a ride to pick up breakfast before catching the fairy back home. They where awesome in helping us out. Definitely enjoyed the stay and will be back again to enjoy front porch time and relaxation. Thanks Keith & Carmen

Blackbeard's Lodge website pictures are deceiving. The lodge is very run down and in desperate need of a major facelift. Paint is peeling all over the outside. The Bridges Rooms are extremely hard to get to especially for senior citizens. The stairs to the Bridges Rooms are dangerous again especially for senior citizens. All stairs are very steep and difficult for senior citizens to go up and down. Website room pictures do not match the actual room. Once you've checked in, maid service does not give new soap or shampoo/conditioner daily. To get to the Rental Golf Carts in the back of the lodge requires walking on boards and pallets nailed together -- again very dangerous for senior citizens. To reach the lodge, you have to walk on mud, dirt and sand from the parking area. Not a place I would recommend to my worst enemy!

This is my 3rd trip to the island, 1st time staying in here. I loved learning so much history located throughout the lodge in photographs with hand written captions, and from speaking to the staff, who was also helpful. If you don't rent golf carts from them, you are still welcome to charge the one you rented at their charging station. Intereating fact maybe, this is the only place on Ocracoke that meets ADA bathroom standards. Be mindful that the historic qualities also bring a charming wooden staircase and a warm office area (possible respiratory concerns), but they offerany floor level rooms.

The place was fairly nice. Looks like it hadn't been updated in a while but there were no problems with the room.

Loved the host. Unique property. Needs renovation. The room we stayed in was small and seemed like two house-sized bedrooms connected by a weird door. The room was as clean as it could be. Everything is really old and could use a refresh.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The room was very clean and comfortable, and the kids really enjoyed the pool. The location was within easy walking distance of everything as well.

The he check in was fast and easy…location was great and will definitely stay there again

Ms. Sherri was an excellent host and made you feel like part of the family.
