Sea Vista Motel

This oceanfront 4.5-star motel is located just 3.9 miles from the venue. It's pet-friendly (with an additional fee) and costs roughly $350-$400 for a 2-night stay. I recommend booking early, as this area tends to sell out quickly around Thanksgiving.

Motel 6 Jacksonville, NC

Tucked in the middle of town, about 27 miles from the venue, this 2-star motel will always have our hearts. This area has changed over the years, but for us, it's forever filled with the memory of the night we met. It's close to restaurants with plenty to do nearby, pet-friendly with no extra cost, and offers free coffee/hot chocolate in the mornings. Just remember to bring cream and sugar. Stays are typically $120-$180 for 2 nights, with a $100 non-refundable deposit collected at check-in. As it is Thanksgiving time, we recommend booking early- rooms here tend to fill up fast.
