Synopsis
In the mid-1800s, wealthy farmers and businessmen began bringing their families to North Carolina's Outer Banks to escape the blistering inland summer heat. Soon after, the region's first hotel was built with accommodations for 200 guests. By the mid-1900s, hotels such as the Carolinian, the Nags Header, and the Arlington as well as smaller motels and cottage courts like Journey's End, the Sea Foam, and the Cavalier dotted the coastline. Most motels were independent, family-run operations. Many guests returned yearly, reuniting with the motel owners and other visitors. However, by the end of the 20th century, many of these mom-and-pop establishments had become a distant memory, lost to wrecking balls and replaced by large beach houses. This book recalls these hotels and motels and their impact on the Outer Banks and its visitors.

    • Elizabeth Ownley Cooper's book is a real gem!

      As a person who has vacationed at the Outer Banks, NC every summer for over 52 years, I remembered many, many of the hotels and motels pictured in this book. The commentary and history provided with each picture was fantastic and much appreciated! Not to mention all the happy memories those pictures brought back to me. Thank you to the author, Elizabeth Ownley Cooper!
