The Clark family
purchased the motel and
cottage business in 1996. Their goal was to create an atmosphere
conducive to original Ocracoke vintage style lodging. It has
been almost a 12 year project and they
continue to meet customers who enjoy the same
memories of Ocracoke Island that the Clarks fell for
in the mid 70's.
Wayne enjoys assisting newcomers with their trip to
Ocracoke. Fishing and power boating are his
favorite hobbies. There is always time allowed
to trade fishing information and boating tips. His
newest boat project is reworking a 1992 Grady
White Explorer. Wayne's passions for boats is
never ending only surpassed by his love for his two
grand- children, Louisa and William. No one
would guess by his lifestyle that he spent 29 yrs in
banking, unless you happen to see him crunching the
numbers for our operation.

Trudy relishes in keeping things
around Edwards as much like it has historically been
(old Ocracoke) as possible. Her favorite hobby
is of course fixing up the motel and cottage units
as well as her own 40's vintage Ocracoke home.
Her 15 years as a Media Specialist must also have
trained her for juggling people, beds, fixtures and
reservations. Trudy has integrated her love of
retro decor by collecting vintage dish
patterns for several of the units as well as
scouting for mid-century clocks, vintage pictures
and those funky lamps. The remodeling project on the
bungalows in 2008 turned out
great! So, she is contemplating the next
upgrades, which will also incorporate that same
wonderful charm of vintage accommodations that she
fell in love with.

Bert is a 1997 graduate of NC State University. He majored
in Environmental Studies with a concentration in Coastal
Resources. He has been working on Ocracoke in the summers since he
graduated from high school. There was never any doubt in his mind
where he would be after college. He enjoys fishing and
bodyboarding year round. If you need up
to date fishing or surfing info, he is your go-to
guy. There
is seldom a day that passes that he is not either in
or on the waters around Ocracoke.
Sara, Bert's wife, is originally from Hagerstown,
MD. She discovered Ocracoke while on a family
vacation in 1996. It was then, she decided to
spend her summers here on the Island of Ocracoke.
Sara graduated from Towson University with a degree
in Exercise Science and also obtained certification
as a massage therapist. She enjoys running, surfing,
hunting and fishing. We congratulate Sara on her 3rd
OBX Marathon as well as another whitetail deer
trophy in 2008. She loves the outdoors
and is grateful that Ocracoke offers her an
abundance of those activities.
