1 Bedroom House in Historic Downtown Manteo, Manteo
Traditional Manteo Cottage
The Little Lifeboat House is our premier rental cottage located in the heart of Manteo on Historic Roanoke Island. Modeled after a traditional North Carolina Lifesaving Station from the late 19th century, the Little Lifeboat House is a cozy one-bedroom retreat that is perfect for honeymoons or intimate weekend getaways. To spend a day by the ocean, head to the nearest beach access which is just 10 minutes away.
Inside, you'll love the open-style floorplan of the ground-level, which makes the cottage feel open and spacious. A large built-in entertainment center acts as a focal wall with coastal décor, a TV, and a cozy fireplace (seasonal). Lounge around on the sofa that pulls out to a bed for extra sleeping space. The fully functional eat-in kitchen boasts granite countertops, a Keurig, and provides everything you need to whip up a masterpiece. The kitchen island offers bar seating for two. There is also a convenient full-sized bathroom and laundry closet on this level. For a revitalizing breath of fresh air, take your coffee out to the brick patio every morning and take a few moments to unwind before starting your day.
Upstairs, you'll feel right at home in the comfortable Queen Bedroom with vaulted ceilings, plenty of natural light and a TV for binge-watching your favorite show before bed. Across the hall is a large bathroom complete with a separate toilet, single vanity and Whirlpool Jacuzzi Tub for ultimate relaxation.
