Room was clean and organized, just like the images! Front staff was kind enough to wait 15 minutes after office hours since ferry was running 15 minutes late. I was able to communicate with them through the booking agency and also directly about my booking and they were always helpful and nice over messages/phone call.

Limited parking area but we did arrive late on Labor Day weekend so that is understandable. Also found 1 bug on the wall in the closet but the staff had left bug spray which we were so happy that it was there !!! (also the lodge is located in a wooded area so the bug being in the room was not a surprise).

Pretty close to everything, I like how they keep it in its vintage era of old school hotels … older yet nostalgic. It was seriously nothing special but it was clean, the beds were super comfortable, and our room amenities were exactly what we wanted- especially having 2 bathrooms and a covered balcony- which we needed dues to rain.

Golf cart charger situation - 2 outlets with multiple extension chords and probably 8 carts attached. Mine didn’t even charge - the breaker probably tripped.

Even though the building is a bit dated, you can see all the effort that has been made to freshen the rooms up. Our room was beautiful and clean with a very comfortable bed.

For as nice as the rooms were- I was disappointed with the pool. The pool deck needs to be sprayed for ants and the pool itself doesn’t look clean due to staining on the bottom.

The courtesy of the clerk at check-in. Best Ever. Courteous-Friendly-Caring. She went out of her way to make us feel genuinely invited. She even introduced us to the "next door neighbors." TEN out of TEN !

Check out. We could have simply left our room key by the TV channel remote, but we chose to check out in person. Terrible experience. It was difficult to get the woman who said she was the manager of of her chair. Terrible experience and a sarcastic employee. You are losing alot of repeat business. Had to share this. Worst customer service ever experienced. But we will still come back since the owner family helped us with a hint as to where we could watch the Major League Baseball All Star Game when the hotel tv channel TBS did not work.

Small but lovely pool just outside our window one floor down. Being able to park under shady trees. Favorite dinner restaurant across street & best breakfast on island just around corner. Fresh brewed coffee or tea available near check-in & good ice machine close to that. Happy, kid-filled game room next to lobby, but lobby quiet for early am coffee & reading while wife slept in our still darkened room. Older facility needing some updating but lovely, charming, good value place. Recommended.

An elevator soon would help attract larger clientele.

Location was great. Could walk from the ferry coming to Ocracoke from Swan Quarter if desired. Facilities were older but I loved the ambience. The facilities matched the hotels name. The staff was great.

Parking wasn't well marked. Kinda make your own space but no one seemed to mind.

We stayed at Blackbeard's Lodge in 2015 and decided to return this year. This is not a 5 Star resort with all of the amenities. Blackbeard's Lodge is old and full of character. We are happy with the simple room, and they even allow pets (we brought our dog this trip). The staff is very friendly and helpful. Our room was very quiet, clean and comfortable. We spent some time relaxing in the swing on the porch outside our room. The lodge is walking distance to most places you might want to go. There is also a tram stop nearby that runs through the village.

There's really nothing that we didn't like. Having stayed before, we knew what we were going to find at Blackbeard's Lodge..

The staff were very professional and very nice. They answered all our questions and were very helpful. Our room was comfortable and very clean. We would definitely stay with them again.

There was nothing about Blackbeard’s Lodge we didn’t like.

Location, the pool, and just the friendliness of the of the guests.

Parking--it is tight, especially with rooms closer to the intersection at the end of the road...hard to get parked with all the traffic (golf carts).

The location and novelty of the property, especially with a child into pirates, is good.

Compared to our previous stay the room for a 3 person family was very small with a lack of any real storage space. The A/C unit was loud and there was a lack of accessible wall sockets. if staying again would have to request a larger room.
