David Williams House Museum

A lot of interesting information and artifacts

My husband and I only could spend a short time here as it was closing. However, we felt what we were able to read and see was very interesting as there was much to learn about the history of local life and the inhabitants of Ocracoke as well as the US life saving service. Ideally you do need some time to explore the house to get a full appreciation as to what it has to offer. We recommend it and would return the next time we are in Ocracoke.

We honestly weren't really sure what this museum was about, but we had a good time nonetheless AND it was free! We happened upon it during Christmas time and thus, we were greeted with cookies, crackers, and cheese. It was a pretty house with reminiscent items from islanders-past; a nice way to pass a half hour.

This little old house is a quaint piece of local history, located next to the Ocracoke Island's Cape Hatteras National Seashore visitor center. It can get a bit crowded inside though.
