Romantics, history buffs, and anyone who appreciates elevated coastal accommodations will enjoy a stay at the Burrus House Inn. As one of the few local inns with direct waterfront access, this Manteo inn is an upscale and tranquil destination where the waterfront views shine, and some of the best aspects of Roanoke Island and the Outer Banks are just minutes away.
The Burrus House Inn is located on the edge of the water in Manteo, and is close to a host of local attractions including the beautiful downtown area where an array of antique shops, restaurants, and on-the-water activities await. The inn itself features a main house with a porch that encircles the grand entrance, and upscale waterfront suites that feature double showers for two, a corner Jacuzzi for luxurious soaking, private decks, and bay views. Expert craftsmanship and refined materials are used throughout, from wide plank pine floors to soothing wall colors, and guests will soon discover that every corner of the inn is perfectly suited for relaxed living. With pretty bay views and a convenient setting that’s close to the Nags Head beaches and the heart of Manteo, but which feels miles away from the hustle and bustle, the Burrus House Inn will entice vacationers to relax and enjoy Roanoke Island’s quiet side.

This year, the Duck Jazz Festival proudly reaches its 16th anniversary, and with it, we unveil our artistic vision:“Duck Grooves: The Sound of Jazz,” is an electrifying celebration of jazz’s dynamic, ever-evolving nature, set against the stunning backdrop of the Currituck Sound. It’s a fusion of past, present, and future, where the timeless traditions of jazz intersect with the vibrancy of new, innovative sounds. Just as the sound of jazz flows and adapts, so too does the landscape of Duck where the rhythm of the music harmonizes with the natural beauty of the water and the surrounding environment.
The Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, with its black and white candy-cane stripes, is one of the most famous and recognizable lighthouses in the world. Protecting one of the most treacherous stretches of the Outer Banks, with a beam of light that spans 20 miles into the ocean, the lighthouse is also the world's tallest brick lighthouse at a staggering 208' ft. tall.
When you see the beautiful sky as it melts seamlessly into the sound you will know why this home is called Liquid Sky. With lots of glass, gleaming hardwood floors, and a view from every angle, you're sure to fall in love with this contemporary open home. There are many amenities like the well-appointed gourmet kitchen, screen porch, and private decks off of every bedroom. Situated on a peninsula, this home offers sailable winds from every direction, which makes it great for sailors of all interests. A newly constructed bulkhead with a private dock has truly made Liquid Sky a secret spot, a wind magnet without the crowds. The private dock allows you to go from couch surfing to kitesurfing in your backyard in a matter of minutes. Out front, the sound offers a shallow sandbar for kiters who want to do tricks and beginners who want the comfort of shallow water. A little further out there is deeper water with some nice wind swell ramps. Its central location is great for quick access to the ocean and other sailing spots. Fish, kayak, stand up paddleboard or sail from the front yard or jump your kiteboard and kiss the sky. Like things quiet? From the upper sun deck watch the birds or catch a glimpse of a kiter or windsurfer as they blast across the water by you. Relax in an Adirondack chair or soak in the hot tub with a glass of wine as you capture endless views of the awesome sunsets. This home offers a little something for everyone.
