Palmer Inn Estate

Palmer Inn Estate is a historic waterfront wedding venue and luxury vacation rental in Barco, North Carolina, near the Outer Banks and the Virginia line. Set on eight private acres overlooking Coinjock Bay, the estate combines coastal scenery, privacy, and historic character for celebrations and group stays. Dating to around 1850, the property was once part of Boswood Farm and has evolved from a family farmhouse into a restored estate for gatherings and overnight guests.

The property includes a six-bedroom main house, a separate two-bedroom guest house, expansive porches, landscaped grounds, ceremony spaces, and the Bay View Pavilion for open-air events. Its wedding packages are designed for full-weekend celebrations, with space for events such as rehearsal dinners, ceremonies, receptions, and farewell brunches in one location. Palmer Inn Estate also offers private event packages and non-event rentals. The pet-friendly setting welcomes garden ceremonies, military family celebrations, and other gatherings, while nearby vacation rental options provide additional lodging for wedding guests.
