Sometimes you just need a few days near the ocean to feel like yourself again. We headed to the OBX for a girls’ weekend and stayed in my friend’s rental house—one of my favorite hidden gems. Wraparound deck, private rooms, sunrise views, and just steps from the beach. From Morris Farms snacks to Manteo lighthouse wandering to a “blind date with a book”… it was perfect. If you’re planning a trip, I linked the house so you can see availability. | The Windsor Saloon
