This small motel , just off NC 12 oceanside, is one of the friendliest spots on the Outer Banks. The Gray family which has owned Tower Circle for some 40 years, treats guests like old friends, and many of them are. Guests sit on the porch, swap stories, and enjoy the tranquil atmosphere and salty air.

The 15 units, including eight duplexes, four two-room suites, and two efficiency apartments, all open onto the porch. All units have cableTV and sleep from two to six people comfortably in twin to king size beds. All suites and apartments have complete kitchens. For optimum privacy, there are no phones in the rooms, although a pay phone is on site. All linens, pots and pans, and dinnerware are provided as well as daily maid service. A washer and dryer are provided as well as a fish cleaning station and deep freezer where you can store your catch. A childrens play area is on site.

It is a short walk to the beach, restaurants, and stores.

The Tower Circle Motel is open April through mid-December. During the winter, mid-December through April, rooms are available to rent by reservation only.

Credit cards, personal checks, cash or money orders are welcome.

There will be an additional charge for extra linen and rollaways.

We are located on Old Lighthouse Road, the first left as you come into Buxton, midway down the road, oceanside.

For old island charm and genuine southern hospitality , the Tower Circle Motel is the place to be.
