Midgett House in old town Manteo, OBX

When coming to Manteo, or The Outer Banks, North Carolina, why not stay in one of the quaint Historic Homes of Manteo? The cozy guest house in the heart of historic old town Manteo. You will have the entire first floor and private front porch for your comfort. The Neva Midgett House makes for the perfect vacation rental accommodations for your visit to Roanoke Island and the Outer Banks of North Carolina. The Neva Midgett house is listed on the Manteo Historic Home registery. The two bedroom guest home is located within walking distance to all that Manteo has to offer including quaint bookstores, wonderful restaurants, art museums, Festval Park for open air concerts, galleries and interesting shops. In fact, the Neva Midgett House was once a very popular antique shop and well known to residents and visitors alike.

Midgett House is a two bedroom guesthouse offering the perfect combination of privacy, quiet comfort, and easy access to our beautiful historic town. Rise with the sun and go for a jog along the waterfront or relax on your covered front porch with a hot cup of coffee and enjoy the flowers in the gardens. Hop on your bike and be instantly surrounded by the history and mystery of Roanoke Island.

THERE IS NOTHING MIDGET ABOUT Midgett House which includes the entire FIRST floor of this arts and crafts bungalow. The house can accommodate up to 4 guests.

From the front door, you will find your own covered porch to enjoy comfortable porch furniture and watch the world go by. The most beautiful beaches in the world of the Outer Banks are located within 5 miles of Manteo. Roanoke Island, centerally located, is perfect for a trip to the northern beaches to see the wild horses roaming freely, or south to the island of Okracoke by ferry. Either way you go, wherever you spend your day, you will return to the privacy and comfort of your own charming house.

The Manteo Walking Tour includes many of the historic homes including the Neva Midgett House. Remember to visit the many other wonders of Roanoke Island. The Lost Colony is performed nightly during the summer months. The North Carolina Aquarium is a quick drive to the original on Roanoke Island and to the new Aquarium opening in May 2011 on the pier in Nags Head. The Elizabethean Gardens are to die for--beautiful.

Hope you can come!

The Neva Midgett House

The Neva Midgett House is a quaint and nicely appointed historic home from where you can easily walk to the waterfront village of Manteo. The location also has quick access to beaches and other attractions on Roanoke Island by car. The home provides very comfortable beds with high quality linens and bath towels and a well stocked kitchen with laundry. Also has a nice yard and front porch with rockers.

Neva Midget House was perfect!

The Neva Midget House was in the perfect location, walkable to all town restaurants, stores and theater. We fell in love with Manteo and you will too, don't miss a chance to visit. The house was perfect, very clean and well equipped. The antique furniture takes you back in time yet had all of the modern amenities needed. SUPER comfy beds and a GREAT shower. We cant wait to visit again soon. Parking is on street directly in front of the house or the side street, it was easy and space was always available. The owner was very attentive and helpful with suggestions for local attractions. Don't miss the Lost Colony Play! The beach is about an 8 minute drive and if you like a more secluded beach experience, try Coquina. You can drive on the beach or walk to your spot. We enjoyed everything and there is no lack of things to do. Steeped in history, great food and endless fun. I would highly recommend the Neva Midget house for your next or first visit to Manteo.

Neva Midgett house

Great location in Manteo across the street from the town hall. First floor entrance foe easy access. All the conveniences for Kitchen and laundry. We stayed a week and it was the perfect location to launch our site seeing. Whether your going south to Cape Hatteras, North to Corolla, or west to Engelhard and Lake Mattamuskeet. Manteo also has a wonderful Downtown with shops and restaurants. Lots to see at Fort Raleigh, Elizabethan Garden,and the North Carolina aquarium. This is the place to stay.

The Place to be to Explore Manteo and Area

Perfect location for walking downtown and to take early morning walks with dog. Every afternoon on the porch. So relaxing. Comfortable beds, plenty of space for a couple with adult daughter and dog. Easy communications and we so appreciated Sharon letting us check in early to accommodate a Zoom meeting. I want to come back to Manteo and will work around availability of this place for sure. Remember to bring your own basic food items - grocery store and restaurants all within walking distance.

Our family of 4 stayed here very comfortably for 3 nights. First of all, the beds and pillows were wonderful —so comfortable! We also enjoyed the front porch rocking chairs and the house itself was charming. The location was perfect for exploring downtown. My son and I parasailed with Kitty Hawk Kites and there was plenty to do and see close by. Kids enjoyed the Wifi during our downtime. We would definitely stay here again.
