''They have an okay selection of candies and ice cream, but that's it, the rest of it is a junk shop. It's way overpriced ($14 for 12 oz. of jellybeans I bought over the summer of 2007)....''

''A few years ago, my family stayed here, we were driving around, and found it. The rooms really need fixed up and modernized badly. But, it was clean, and the service was excellent. The staff were friendly, and made the entire stay so enjoyable. The restaraunt is awesome. We didn't leave the whole week we were there. We are definetly coming back soon. This motel is very difficult to find on the web though....''

''I read some reviews online about this place and heard a lot about the fritters, so my family and I decided to check it out. DON'T order the fritters unless you like over sugared fried fruit. Although I did enjoy the omelet, and the prices were fair....''

''I thought this store was absolutely charming. I bought several items and am going to call to order some gifts for others as well. We come to Emerald Isle every year and you better believe I will be coming to this store once again. So many unique things to see, NOT the typical beach souvenir shop....''

''Pros: got it all
Cons: to big
nice place...''

''The shops have an amazing selection. The staff are the friendliest!! Wish they had a web-site so I could shop there all the time!!...''

''There really isn't much to do in the town so this is the place to be....sweets...caffene....they even got tthe Baskin Robins in there. One stop get fat spot......i love it!!...''

''The owners are very friendly and knowledgeable about surfing.I traded my old board in towards a new one and am extreamly pleased with the whole transaction. They also have alot of cool cloths and skateboards available....''

''love this surf shop. its the best in town wouldn't go anywhere else!...''

''We really enjoy picking up our fresh Carolina seafood from this clean and attractive business. Also important is the friendly and efficient staff. Another plus is being able to buy their shelled and deveined shrimp when you don't have a lot of time for fixing a meal such as scampi. I find this a very convenient place to shop.

''One of the most kind and generous person you can ever meet. He is an awesome Veterinarian with a tremendous heart, and lots of compassion. He is truly an asset to his field....''

''This store is the best on the beach, I just love the clothes they carry and the wear so well. I come down to the beach in March and June every year and buy tons of things. I have sweatshirts that I have had for years and they still look as good as the day I bought them. I look forward to getting in there every year....''

''Best place in Indian Beach/Salter Path to get fresh seafood. They will scale it, gut it, and fillet or steak it. Then I grill, steam or fry it. Same family runs it year after year. Usually good supply of soft shell crabs too....''

''We live in the area! This is a wonderful place. If you visit at just the right time, the kids (or you!) can watch the staff make HOMEMADE fudge! It is very neat. They offer a variety of flavors. My favorite is the Chocolate Peanut Butter. Go visit!...''

''This is one of the best fruit stands I hve ever had the pleasure of visiting. The old style tobacco barn will take your breath away, plus they have the best watermelons and tomatoes on the coast. I highly reccommend stopping by this place on your way to the beach....''

''July 2007: The best fudge on the coast of North Carolina! Suzanne was delightful!...''

''One of the best shops I have seen in a long time. ''Clipper'' is very knowledgeable in the wares he sells and buys. One of the best collections of good glass I have come across. Professional. friendly, and an all around good guy to do business with!...''

''Kind people, efficient, maticulously maintained store! Great souveniers - such a pleasure....''

''I disagree with the previous review. I have been to both of the Lowes stores mentioned in that review and MUCH prefer the Cape Carteret location....it is cleaner and better organized, the produce, deli, and bakery departments are fantastic, and I have never had a problem with them being low on the grocery items I wanted. They actually have a better selection than most of the grocery stores in this area. The service has always been efficient and friendly....''
