We stayed for a short, 4 night visit to the OBX and reserved one of the small cottages (two beds with an efficiency). The motel itself is a charming, old-school property that offers several ammenities and is located on the beach. Overall, the property is well-maintained and the staff were extemely courteous and friendly. The room itself is older (think paneling) but clean. The bathroom in our particular unit was quite small and a little difficult to navigate. I would recommend including some hooks for towels and small shelves to store toiletries and other items. If we had an opportunity to hang up towels we probably would have used them more economically during our stay. The kitchen included a full-sized fridge, stove, coffee maker, and microwave. We did not use the stove, but the fridge and coffemaker worked well. The plug for the coffee maker was not long enough to plug into the outlet, but we moved it out of the kitchen and it worked fine. We were informed that the SandSpur is in the process of being purchased by another local property, and there are plans to conduct some renovations, which will only enhance it. Overall, it was a good stay.
