First Look: Edgecamp Pamlico Station Arrives on Hatteras Island, North Carolina
Hatteras Island, the southernmost of North Carolina’s Outer Banks, has a long legacy as a destination for kitesurfing, beach combing, and generally unplugging (complete with notoriously spotty cell service). Historically, lodging options included a smattering of inns, motels, campgrounds, and vacation rentals. Opening this month, the Edgecamp Pamlico Station hotel, designed by celebrity interior designer and potter Jonathan Adler, ushers in a new level of accommodations.
Pamlico Station owner Richard Fertig first came to the area in 2018 to learn to kiteboard. “I instantly found the island remarkable. The natural beauty, the wetlands—everything about it was so unique. I continued coming back year after year and found there were such limited places to stay,” he says. “I had the idea to create a hospitality experience that would open up this incredible destination to more travelers but also something that matched the Outer Banks’ world-class caliber.” The result is a residential-style hotel that offers a certain barefoot elegance along with wellness-focused amenities, concierge service, and easy access to nature. Each of the fourteen suites comes with an outdoor living space and water views of the Pamlico Sound.
Inside, the suites are cozy and upscale. “Our initial inspiration was Mother Nature—she’s the world’s best designer—and the environment surrounding Pamlico Station,” Adler says. “The hotel is alongside one of the largest preserved parcels of the Outer Banks’ shoreline, which is so beautifully remote and majestic, and we infused elements of it in the colors we used.” The interiors capture Adler’s signature upscale midcentury style, with a mix of ceramic tiles, organic textures such as mohair and bouclé, and cool metals.
“Design has the power to reflect back your most interesting and glamorous self,” Adler says. “And who doesn’t want to feel especially glamorous on vacation?”

Anchoring the bedrooms is the Adler-designed Riviera Wave Bed, featuring sand-colored bouclé and curved natural reeds that evoke the shape of water coming on shore. “I feel it’s important to design with a sense of place,” says the designer, noting that the colors of the surrounding landscape flow through the hotel’s living spaces in pops of green and blue.

“We mixed rattan and lacquer for a polished yet rustic look,” Adler says. Some suites come with a Malm fireplace in Bengal orange, perfect for warming up after a day out in the wind and waves.

Wellness is a theme at Edgecamp Pamlico Station, says Fertig, evidenced by a cold plunge and sauna for guests to use on demand. “We wanted to create a place where you can relax after a day of outdoor exploration. I like to say, ‘Play hard but recover intentionally.’ The wellness center was the perfect complement to the active lifestyle the Outer Banks offers,” he says. Suites come stocked with yoga mats, a Therabody massage gun, resistance bands, and a foam roller.

The building, formerly a retail center, has been thoughtfully designed to offer exterior access, which means guests can come and go as they please without having to traipse through a lobby. Railings and banisters are clad in organic material to blend into the landscape.

In the spa bathroom, floors and walls are covered in white and navy penny tile, and rain showers, stocked with Jonathan Adler grapefruit-scented amenities, stand ready to wash away sand and sunscreen.

Each of the hotel’s fourteen suites comes with a dining area suited for four guests and a full kitchen, which visitors may choose to have pre-stocked with their favorite groceries. The concierge team can also arrange for a private chef to prepare in-room meals. “We’ve reimagined luxury by blending standout design, personalized and private service, and unparalleled access to outdoor adventure, creating an experience that’s really unlike anything else on the islands,” Fertig says.

For the suite living rooms, Adler commissioned custom rugs made of 100 percent recycled materials. He says sustainability can also be about longevity and durability. “In everything I design, whether it’s products or places, I want them to be of extraordinary quality so that you can appreciate them for years and years without having to throw away or adjust a thing,” Adler says. “My motto has always been, ‘If your heirs won’t fight over it, we won’t make it.’”

Adler, who considers himself “first and foremost a potter,” took pride in selecting artful ceramics and tile. The bedrooms are accented with his sculptural Grenade Column lamps and Soleil Tile Art, crafted from colorful ground recycled glass and stoneware.

A circa-1968 photograph of a paraglider in Acapulco, by society photographer Slim Aarons, is the nostalgic centerpiece of a suite living room. Beyond taking inspiration from the Outer Banks, Adler says, “We drew upon other glamorous beachside locales, like the French and Italian Rivieras in the fifties and sixties.”

Shooting in park near North Carolina school leaves two dead and several hurt
At least two people are dead and “several” others are injured after a “planned fight” at a North Carolina park escalated into a mass shooting, authorities said.
Police have identified several victims and suspects after Monday’s shooting at Leinbach Park near Jefferson Middle School, according to the Winston-Salem Police Department.
Authorities confirmed there were multiple victims in the shooting, but did not provide an exact number. The suspects were still at large over two hours later.
Officers were called to the park just before 10 a.m. after reports of a fight, which then escalated into multiple people shooting each other.
Area schools are not in lockdown, and classes are operating as normal, police said.
“Due to the number of people involved, efforts are ongoing to account for everyone. At this time, some of those involved in the incident are juveniles,” police said.
According to local news station WFMY, at least three people were taken to the hospital. Officials have not shared their conditions.
Police said the shooting was an isolated incident and remains under investigation.

Three Underrated UNC Football Seniors To Watch in 2026
The North Carolina Tar Heels will be a young program across the board next season, with well over two dozen freshmen and numerous additions from the transfer portal this offseason. Expectations for the 2026 season are lowered dramatically after a disastrous first season for head coach Bill Belichick, though those expectations could help the Tar Heels fly under the radar.
As the Tar Heels approach the end of spring ball, it is time to look at the veterans of the team—the ones who have the experience to lead, especially on the defensive side of the ball. Let’s look at three underrated seniors for the 2026 football season.
Ade Willie, Cornerback
Willie joins the Tar Heels program after four years with Michigan State, as the former 4-star player in the 2022 recruiting class gets an opportunity to not only provide depth to the secondary, but potentially start Week 0 against TCU.
Willie played in over 30 games with the Spartans and brings experience in the secondary at cornerback and safety, along with quality length and closing speed to the football. For a defense that needs players to step up, the redshirt senior from IMG Academy will be asked to do so.
Isaiah Johnson, Defensive Lineman
The defensive line is beginning to look like one of the Tar Heels’ strengths for the 2026 season. Johnson, a former transfer from Arizona, enters his redshirt senior year looking to add another year of production after 40 tackles and two sacks this past season.
North Carolina has an impressive group of starters with Malkart Abou-Jaoude, Leroy Jackson, and incoming transfer Jaylen Harvey. Johnson adds value to the group as a run defender with the ability to penetrate the pocket. While not discussed as a key player, Johnson’s name will be used plenty during the regular season as a potential standout for the program’s defensive front.
Coleman Bryson, Safety
Bryson was a reserve player for the Tar Heels’ secondary last season as a big nickel defender in the rotation. Heading into his redshirt senior year, the former Minnesota Gopher is looking to become a full-time starter in the secondary.
It wasn’t long ago when Bryson was making plays as the 2022 Pinstripe Bowl Defensive MVP. His special teams abilities were valuable for North Carolina last season, and he flashed at times in coverage against tight ends, including a pass breakup in the season-opener against TCU. The Waynesville, North Carolina, native could be a key defender on the back-seven in 2026.
