Yes, the studio in building 18 has a great marsh view, our favorite view, but unfortunately it's on the first floor and subject to noise from above. We always request the Main Lodge mostly because of the elevator. DH golfs a lot, and insists on keeping his golf clubs in the room, so for up and down, the elevator helps. And since we stay for two weeks, the elevator is great for carrying groceries from the many trips to Kroger. Yes, we've seen Dolphins from the main building, mostly from the side that faces the inlet. However, that side faces the morning sun, so it can get pretty warm while you drink your morning coffee. I like 1135 best, then go onto back porch to look for dolphins.
