Great location

We really enjoyed our stay in Manteo! The Roost was perfectly located near downtown, but was quiet at night. It was the perfect location to both hit beaches on OBX and enjoy Roanoke Island. The house had all the amenities we needed. We would definitely stay here again.

Not what we expected

After a late check in the home wasn’t clean. Just an fyi, Front area of home had a hard time keeping up with the temperatures. We stayed during a heat wave with crazy high humidity. The home is in a great location. Walkable area. Floors creek.

Great Vacay

My family absolutely loved staying here. The layout was spacious and inviting. The amenities were exactly as described and the check-in/checkout process was both smooth, and efficient. The location was perfectly nestled in a quiet community within walking distance of downtown Manteo, but within a reasonable driving distance of many local attractions, activities, and communities.

Nice weekend with my family

The location was perfect. Basically across the street from downtown and the festival park. We visited both. Friday night you could hear the bluegrass so we brewed coffee and enjoyed it in the pavilion across the street. We also walked to the farmers market and did the ghost tour. Parking only accommodates one car which was ok for us but is probably the only challenge. Really nice stay.

Great location

Loved our stay. Clean and comfortable house. Although there is only one space for a car, there is public parking right across the street. Just a few steps to shops and restaurants. Quiet neighborhood.

Perfect for families

We enjoyed our stay at The Roost! The property was well equipped and perfect for two families. We had everything we needed to host Thanksgiving, and the kids loved running up and down the hall. Our pups even loved the huge dog bed! The location was also perfect right in downtown Manteo which made for lots of great walks down the docks, and around town!

Great location

Location in Manteo with quick walking access to town and Festival Park. Great place for early morning exercise. Set up for 4 queen beds worked well for our family. Parking for one vehicle and limited supply paper towels (1 roll) and toilet paper (2 rolls 1 for each bathroom). Could improve bathing towels. Overall a really good stay.

The Roost

I have recommended this place to my family and friends. It was clean, dog friendly, and spacious for our crew. Adorable little walkable town close to many attractions but quiet enough for us to feel at home.
