''My family has vacationed in EI, NC for 10+ years. We will NEVER forget 2003. Our ''farewell dinner'' was at the Clamdigger. My sister-in-law had the Chicken Parm. Took 1.5 hours to bring out the food, service was horrible, bill was $120.00 for 4 adults, 1 child (no drinks- we're driving home.) By the time we returned to our rental, my SIL was puking. We called the restaurant, and they said, ''You can't prove it was us.'' Classy! We moan at the memory each year as we drive past this horrible plac...''

''I would just like to let people know this is the best place to stay. I have stayed here every year for the last 25 years during the summer or on special occasions (just to get out of town) I would recommend them to anyone....''

''My boyfriend and I wanted a get away and my sister found this place for us. We wanted a room with a hot tub and oceanfront. We stayed here and had the time of our lives. We will not go any where else. We brag about this hotel to everyone. Thank you....''

''My friend and I had a wonderful time here, i have stayed at the Seahawk before and thought for a weekend get awayfrom a crazy life, this would be the perfect place to go since it's very relaxing and calm. Very pretty yard and loved the hamick chairs. If your looking for a relaxing time this is the perfect place to stay. Great for familes....''

''We stayed here for a long weekend June 2005.... and had a wonderful time. The hotel is not your typical beach hotel..... it is VERY nice. The rooms are clean and very large. The morning breakfast was a wonderful treat... and coffee in the lobby 24 hours was great.

The hotel is across the street from the beach, but still very close. We will be back.... in a few weeks!...''
