Captain's Landing Waterfront Inn
This small, yellow inn is perched right on Silver Lake, within walking distance of most restaurants, bars, and the lighthouse. Owned by a ninth-generation Ocracoker, the inn has eight one-bedroom, 1½-bath waterfront suites, all with full kitchens; there's also a cottage and a penthouse suite. Amenities include boat slips and bikes for rent. Discounted weekly rates are available.
