OCEANFRONT Frisco - Tide's Edge Road - Twin Home: This is one of two nearly identical 6,450 sq. ft. sizable homes on the same road. Rent one or both for your group – ideal for accommodating huge-scale get-togethers, multi-generational families, or group gatherings for Outer Banks weddings and other special events. If SEA MIST is unavailable for your preferred week, its twin home, #368 Sea Whisper, just may be. Thoughtfully designed throughout for guests with accessibility and mobility needs, SEA MIST encapsulates casual luxury from top to bottom, a spectacular home that offers four soaring levels and broad ocean vistas. Even though the beach is steps away, your family will appreciate the sprawling private pool area, with an 18’x37’ pool (one of the biggest on the island), over 1,200 square feet of decking for sunbathing, an eight-person hot tub enclosed within a shady screened-in porch, and a convenient cabana bath. Stream your favorite playlists from Bluetooth enabled speakers at the pool and hot tub to set the vibe. For a break from the sun, step inside to the first level game room to catch your team in action on the enormous flat screen TV with DVD/CD and multiple speakers, or create your own competition with a competitive game of pool. A wet bar with mini-refrigerator and microwave keeps the drinks and snacks within painless reach. Nearby, access the all-level elevator entrance, laundry room with handy dishwasher and full-size refrigerator, and two comfortable master bedrooms, each with two queen beds. Every bedroom in the home has a private bathroom and flat screen TV/DVD providing ultimate privacy.

The second level is home to four king masters in which one is handicap friendly with roll-in shower, one opens to the deck with ocean vistas, another opens to a screened in porch, ideal for morning coffee while watching the dolphins. This level also has a comfortable den with, a 65" curved screen WiFi-enabled TV home theater system with BluRay player and BlueTooth-enabled sound bar. A kitchenette with full-size refrigerator, microwave, sink, two-burner stove, and dishwasher for simple cleanup is ideal for feeding all their favorite meals. This level also includes four king master suites: one is mobility-friendly with roll-in shower; one opens to the deck with ocean vistas; and another opens to a screened-in porch, ideal for morning coffee while watching dolphins frolic in the ocean. Another dreamy king master opens to a deck with impressive vistas on the third level, as does an expansive great room where floor-to-ceiling windows make the Atlantic Ocean the star of the show. Gather around a 65" curved screen WiFi-enabled home theater system with Blu-ray player and BlueTooth-enabled sound bar. Set up a game of checkers, chess or a puzzle the whole family can contribute to on the game table. There is also a desk on this level for those needing to do remote work. A nine-seat breakfast bar or table on the adjacent screened-in porch attracts early risers and latecomers both for that first cup of coffee. Avid chefs will appreciate the cavernous gourmet kitchen with two cooktops and three ovens to make prepping meals a breeze, along with double dishwashers for easy cleanup. Your efforts will be rewarded as you sit down to savor each memorable meal around an chic 14-seat dining table.

Two more king masters complete the top level, one with a private study, and the other with ocean and sound vistas.

Jimmy's Seafood Buffet

Home of the Crab Leg & Lobster Buffet for 25! years! Jimmy’s Seafood Buffet is a great stop for an all you can eat affordable dinner extravaganza. The buffet offers over 100 different items. It even serves Jumbo Alaskan crab legs and Jumbo steamed shrimp, something you will not find on any other buffet in the OBX. The buffet offers a variety of seafood and non seafood options. Try some of Jimmy’s seafood options and load your plate with blackened tuna, Louisiana crawfish, steamed scallops and mussels, fried oysters and deviled crabs. Not in the mood for seafood? Fill your plate with steak, pineapple glazed ham, fried chicken, BBQ ribs, and fettuccini Alfredo to name a few. The buffet also offers a kid section. Let your kids load their plates with chicken tenders, mac and cheese, and corn dog nuggets. Don’t forget dessert! The buffet also offers soft serve ice cream and a plethora of baked goods. 

 

It’s been 25 years since Jimmy’s Seafood Buffet opened its doors for the first time. Since that inaugural summer, the goal has remained the same: provide customers with a tasty, fresh array of seafood full of Caribbean flavor.

 

Elizabeth Dowless and her husband Jerry had always worked in restaurants in the Outer Banks, so when the opportunity to open Jimmy’s Seafood Buffet with a couple of friends arose, it was an easy yes. The Dowlesses bought out the business in 2003, excited to turn Jimmy’s into an Outer Banks staple. When Jerry passed away later that year, Dowless knew she wanted to continue pursuing their dream on her own.

 

Dowless went all in on the concept of a fresh, flavorful seafood buffet and her hard work paid off. Jimmy’s Seafood Buffet is a beloved fixture of Outer Banks dining, with customers returning year after year for the fresh fare.

 

“Customers keep in contact with me throughout the winter. I get people every day asking me when we’re opening for the season, and customers book their vacations around our opening,” Dowless says. “I absolutely love getting to see familiar faces come back to see us each year. I love seeing them lose their minds over the buffet! Their excitement is what I love most about my job.”
