Step back in time with this former Bed and Breakfast, turned vacation rental home. Miss Elecia Garrish has a wonderfully central location in the middle of Ocracoke Village, yet is far enough off the main road in a small residential area that it provides a quiet retreat. With 6 bedrooms and a maximum occupancy of 14 people you can bring the whole gang and enjoy family time. Miss Elecia also allows you to bring your 4 legged canine family members too! A Large central dining table is perfect for family meals, and with 6 bedrooms there is definitely room for everyone to spread out as well. Beadboard walls, and wood floors upstairs definitely support the feel of an older island home. Comfortable and convenient you can relax in one of the rockers or on the porch swing. Read or dream your hours away on the porches of this large historic Ocracoke Island home. Located on a quiet, dead-end lane in the heart of the village, this dog-friendly home is modernized while maintaining the original charm of the beadboard walls, solid wood doors, and wood flooring.

"Great location! - We were able to walk everywhere and enjoyed a quiet spot despite being so close to everything. The house has plenty of space, but very little privacy. The house is old and quaint, but served our needs for the week."

"The Garrish House was lovely, close to town and most adequately equipped. Plenty of room. One of the living room couches deserves a good cleaning. Saw a few cockroaches on the kitchen floor.
Overall good stay. Will likely return next year. Thanks."

"We had a wonderful time in Ocracoke - as always! House had wonderful kitchen and great location. The TVs were not hooked up in the upstairs bedrooms - would be good to correct that for future guests. "

"July 2018 Stay I love coming to Ocracoke, the fishing, the swimming, but mostly the people make us feel welcomed. I started coming here 3 years ago and wouldnt go to any other place on the coast or outer banks. OCR is the easiest place to check in with. The 1/2 day fishing trip was awesome! I love staying in the older homes, the character and thoughtfulness of the owners."
