Description
The Inn at Rodanthe, as it was named in the 2008 movie based on Nicholas Spark’s popular novel, “Nights in Rodanthe,” starring Richard Gere and Diane Lane, is a beautiful oceanfront vacation rental located in the small Hatteras Island village of Rodanthe on the Outer Banks of North Carolina.
The storyline draws the viewer into the emotions of a woman, Adrienne Willis (Diane Lane), on the verge of divorce who accepts her friend’s invitation to fill in as temporary innkeeper while she is away. She agrees and travels to the Outer Banks. A first time guest of the Inn, Dr. Paul Flanner (Richard Gere) visits the area on personal business and becomes friends with Adrienne. They share their life story, fall in love and the rest of the story…Well, you’ll just have to see the movie for yourself.
During filming Outer Banks locals were used as extras and many locals caught a glimpse of the cast and crew as they filmed across Hatteras Island and the southern Outer Banks. Debuting in September 2008, the movie embraced the majestic natural beauty of Hatteras Island and the focal point of the story, the Inn at Rodanthe.
The Inn at Rodanthe was originally built in the 1980’s and at the time of construction, over 400 feet of beach and sand separated the home from the Atlantic. Throughout the years, coastal storms, hurricanes, erosion and repetitive ocean over wash put the home is severe danger. The home was condemned by local officials after filming due to extreme coastal erosion that placed the home literally in the Atlantic Ocean.
In the spring of 2009, a couple from Newton, NC who were extreme fans of the movie, considered purchasing the Inn at Rodanthe and began making inquiries with the current owners and local government about how the home could be saved. On January 4, 2010, the couple purchased the Inn at Rodanthe and an oceanfront lot, only a short distance from the original site.
