Innkeeper Response
Response to "Charming but Termite-Infested". We were delighted that the guests found our inn charming, and liked their room, complete with effective air-conditioning, a fireplace, and a double whirlpool tub with luxury bath salts. We are proud members of Select Registry, whose members must meet strict criteria before being accepted into the association. We must, however, clarify that the White Doe Inn is absolutely and caegorically NOT termite infested. We have had a pest control contract in place since we opened The White Doe in 1995. Never-the-less, during the termite season, termites will swarm from rotten tree stumps in the neighborhood and enter surrounding residences. This is not uncommon in humid coastal areas. We wish that these guests had reported this undesirable situation so that their problem could have been addressed immediately. We had an inspection done after we read the review and no termite problems were found. We have also alerted our housekeeping staff to maintain a close watch and so far have not seen any evidence of swarming since. Manteo, located on Roanoke Island on the outer Banks of NC, is a quaint coastal village that focuses on promoting its cultural and natural resources. There are no chain restaurants by choice because the community prefers to support small independent entrepreneurs. Among the excellent resaurants in town, we would recommend Full Moon Cafe, 1587 Restaurant, Orgegas, and Basnight's Lone Cedar. We suggest that guests let innkeepers know if they are not happy or if there is a problem with their accommodations. Innkeepers really do appreciate guests expressing their opinions so that they can make sure their stay is a good experience.

Review The White Doe Inn, Manteo, NC

Photo Album

The East Lake Bedchamber is so named because of the Victorian East Lake style furnishings that were family pieces from special friends. To enrich these furnishings, gold damask wall coverings and rich green fabrics are used. A beautiful dogwood impressioned gold-leafed antique mirror over the fireplace reflects the warm glow of the room as you relax in the comfortable sitting area or on the queen size bed. A shared balcony overlooks the Inn's Gardens and Veranda.In the Garret Bedchamber, one can experience the turn-of-the-century Victorian Orient with elegant china blue and gold colors, accented with antique furnishings. A black wrought iron king size bed and sitting area both provide comfortable alternatives for enjoying the fireplace. The perfect place to reconnect! To compliment the bedchamber, the spacious elegant bath is decorated in a beautiful complimenting décor. A fireplace located adjacent to the two-person whirlpool with hand-shower provides the ultimate touch of romance, relaxation and tranquility.
An important part of the Bed & Breakfast experience is the food. The White Doe Inn is pleased to provide outstanding service and a delicious full four course seated and served breakfast that will delight your palate and be pleasing to the eye. Great care is given to serving only the freshest foods that are garnished with edible herbs and flowers from the Inn's own gardens. Weather permitting you can enjoy your breakfast communing with nature on our beautiful back deck and veranda.The Virginia Dare has comfortable seating for two, perfect for reading in front of the gas fireplace.
If you dream of a romantic setting where time stands still and graciousness is a way of life, The White Doe Inn is the perfect venue for your wedding. In Victorian times, weddings were Grande Affaires with romance, love, and tradition being an integral part of the celebration. Today's couples often choose smaller and more intimate affairs. Whatever your dream, creating an elegant and stylish event with personal details and limitless creativity is our goal.The gardens at the White Doe Inn is a place to relax in the hammock, unwind in the gazebo, sit by the outdoor fire pit and roast marshmallows, maybe partake in a friendly game of bocce ball.
The White Doe Inn offers many indulgences that can be added to your stay. Brie Salad, Picnics for Two, Champagne and Chocolates are just a few of your options.
