Missed part of out week due to Hurricane Isaias but we did add the trip insurance as it was highly recommended by the property.
Betty kept in contact with us to coordinate the storm related high traffic issues and our uncertain arrival time...Appreciated !!!
The hotel room was perfect...Queen Bed, Full Kitchen (Dishwasher Too), 1.5 Baths, Huge Deck, and all the needed accessories (pots, pans, silverware, etc. etc.)
Fresh fish market is 2 doors down with fresh flounder and yellow fin tuna filets.
Biked to Ocracoke Coffee and the Lifeguarded beaches are just minutes straight up the road.
100% Recommend Staying At Captain's Landing.

It has been a very challenging year. Dorian certainly affected the landscape and businesses on the island. Because of the pandemic, we were not sure we could even come until a week or two before our reservation on June 20 for a week. To keep the check in touch free, we did all pre registration before coming so when we arrive we went right to our room, unlocked with keys on the counter.

We arrived later in the day than we had hoped, around 5 PM. I opened the door and was greeted with a cool room, AC set on 72. Lights were on ad the TV was also on. We expressed some concern about not being able to get the in person tutorial they always give. We also were given instructions where to go if detailed help was required. We had been hot and tired, but suddenly it felt like we were HOME!

It is now almost two decades we have come to this lovely location. We cook a lot and find the kitchen well supplied for real cooks, great set of heavy bottom pans in all sizes. With 1 1/2 bathrooms, we each have our own space. Though we never use the pull out bed in the living room it is there for those with more than two people.

And the staff.....always the same, we did get to talk with them while social distancing, but they really feel like family to us. It was, as it always is, a wonderful, relaxing week. It’s really is like going home, only better. We are already signed up for next year!

Although my husband and I have been going to Ocracoke for the past 50 years , we’ve never stayed right on Silver Lake! We usually rent vacation homes, but this time it was just the two of us, and Captains Landing was PERFECT! Three weeks at this convenient small suite hotel was perfect! Our hosts, Betty and George, are awesome and there was no need that went unmet! The “suite” was much larger than expected as was the balcony! We were comfortably able to entertain friends for dinner and we enjoyed all the space and privacy. We were in Suite 104, first floor, no steps. The wonderful staff were so accommodating from Deena in the front office to Javier and his wife who were an excellent team for cleaning, etc. If you are looking for a perfect, convenient stay in the quaint village of Ocracoke, then this is your place!

When we first arrived, I was sure that I would end up giving the place a 5 star review. All rooms are suites with a full kitchen, small love seat and tv in a sitting room and a great deck over looking silver lake. The furnishings were typical beach condo grade, but everything was really clean.
The owners were very attentive but even though, we had some issues. The ice maker had to be repaired, the dishwasher didn't work and one of the owners unlocked the door and would have walked in on us had i not jumped up and grabbed the door!!
It was a mixup and they called and apologized, but it seems like they should have a better system in place to avoid that kind of intrusion.

Nice location, great views, decent rooms but frustrating that the equipment in the room wasn't checked out before renting it out and a little concerning that there isn't a better systme in place to ensure guests aren't surprised by someone entering the room.

We spend a week at Captains Landing every year and though we live riding around Ocracoke and see many other attractive places, we can't imagine ever wanting to stay anywhere else. The suites have fully equipped kitchens, and both the living area and the bedroom have sliding glass doors onto a balcony that is right on Silver Lake harbor - beautiful view.
Everything is in walking distance, with the local waterman's association's seafood store just down the street. This year we cooked and ate fresh-caught flounder, scallops, shrimp, and cobia, as well as enjoying meals in local restaurants. The Captains Landing staff have always been wonderful to us - we look forward to seeing them each time we return.

We know we could try other places on Ocracoke, but for a couple looking for the equivalent of a small condo with a fully equipped kitchen, Captains Landing is perfect - and it's also right on Silver Lake Harbor with beautiful views from balcony, living area and bedroom, and in a location convenient to everything - not to mention the wonderful people who run it and are right there if you need anything. And off-street parking and golf carts for rent. We loved the place the first time we stayed there, love it still, and hope to return the next time we stay on Ocracoke.

We had an excellent stay at Captain's Landing. Beautiful views over the water and gentle breezes to cool the hot summer days. Thank you Deena for the tea kettle and to all the helpful, friendly staff.

We stayed two nights here for an exploratory trip to Ocracoke by airplane. One of the owners picked us up at the airport and showed us the town before bringing us to our room. He also gave us two bicycles to ride around town with. We did ride to the beach for some surf fishing and walking. We enjoyed riding around Ocracoke which was a very charming place to visit and it reminded me of a New England Fishing Village. The room was clean and kitchen well equipped but we did enjoy several good restaurants during our short stay. Eating ice cream at the town square watching the sunset was a pleasure. We will be back and definitely stay at the Captain's Landing.

Terrific location, comfy room with the feel of an apartment, quiet, quick responses from staff, super easy check in and check out. We loved having a dedicated (roomy) parking space. This is our new spot at Ocracoke!

My husband Kal and I celebrated our 27th wedding anniversary March 8, 2023, with a week-long trip to Ocracoke. We were fortunate to have chosen Captain's Landing Waterfront Inn for our stay. Betty and her staff were very welcoming. From our hotel balcony, we enjoyed the scenic beauty of Silver Lake and the breathtaking sunset and moon rise each day, adding to the already remarkable landscape. From Ocracoke we also took a day trip to Hatteras Island. Our hotel suite at Captain's Landing was comfortable with all amenities. Restaurants, artisan stores, and recreational activities are a walking distance. The Atlantic Ocean is a few minutes drive. This was one of our most memorable trip.

I'm pretty sure they do not allow pets...A check on the web site confirms their no pet policy. Great property !

Answer from Linda B
Reva, Virginia20 contributions16 helpful votes
I wish I had the info you seek. I do not go there in January and in addition, the COVID-19 and Hurricane Dorian have affected how or if restaurants are open. Our favorite restaurant, The Back Porch, was not open for sit down diners when we were there in June. Because the room at Captain's Landing has a kitchen, we cooked in mostly. Right next door to CL, is a great fresh seafood store that we used mostly. Here you can literally get fresh seafood off the boat that day. Love their local shrimp. Hope this helps.
