The Lighthouse House

This memorable place is anything but ordinary. Nestled just 45 minutes from the Outer Banks of North Carolina, it promotes the local peace of the area without the hustle and bustle of the popular beach destinations. The Outer Banks is also the home of many lighthouse attractions; what better way to plan a trip to see lighthouses than to stay in a lighthouse-themed home!?
