"Parking is disastrous. Plan on using the valet service at $15 a day so you don’t have to walk down the road to park your car and retrieve it. Management should plan to pave the grass out front. Other than that and broken ice machine very nice stay and good restaurant."

"Quaint and comfy cottage and you can't beat the view. An added bonus was the pods of dolphins we watched in the morning from the deck. We also rented a golf cart for the week and had a blast exploring the island. Cottage was very clean and well stocked. Communication with Debbie was excellent. Overall, a great place to stay on Ocracoke."

"Our stay at Silver Lake was wonderful, Hanna & John were perfect hosts and have done a great job with renovating both the hotel and The Jolly Roger!
