Great stay, very nice property. It's in a small town of the main beach drag, so allows for a more relaxed atmosphere. Would recommend.

This charming property is located on the outskirts of downtown Manteo and very convenient for daily walks and driving activities. However, it is located on what seems to be a shortcut so it is very heavily travelled and busy at certain hours creating some road noise. Other than that itbhas everything you need, except a corkscrew, under one roof.

Check in was easy and the keypad worked great on the door. However, the TV would not connect to the cable, and we found dirty dishes in the cabinet. We had to rewash every dish and glass before we used them. The jets on the bath tub that was advertised as being a great place to relax didn’t work. They sounded like they were grinding and about to blowup. We called the agency and asked about getting things fixed. A guy came and got the TV working but we did not get the bath tub jets working or light over the tub replaced. Additionally if you are a big person the shower is downstairs from the bedroom and is very small. We did not realize that the main bathroom only had the bath tub. So we had to go downstairs to shower each day. And they have only one cabinet in the kitchen for dishes that you would need a step stool to access. There is no step stool so we could not use the serving bowls and extra bakeware even if we wanted to. We could have used a couple open shelves for the dry goods we brought with us instead of leaving everything on the kitchen counter. We also would have liked to have a small table to eat at and play games on. We tried to play Yahtzee on the counter and the dice kept falling off. We would not stay here again, and will try an AirB&B next time.

We very much enjoyed our stay in the Little Lifeboat Cottage. The location was perfect. Walking distance to downtown Manteo but in a quiet neighborhood. The accommodations were clean and comfortable. If you plan to do any cooking /eating in during your stay be aware that there are no pantry items but the selection of kitchen items/utensils is perfectly adequate as were linens provided. We would definitely stay here again.

Perfect location! We were able to walk or bike everywhere we want to go on the island. The accommodations were clean and well appointed for the two of us.

Great house and a great location - the only off-putting thing was that we had to be out by 9am on check out day - and to get a late checkout we had to pay more money. I've been using VRBO for years and a 9am checkout time is pretty ridiculous, especially when we couldn't initally check in until 5pm.
