Building The Outer Banks

In this episode of the Northern OBX Podcast, we sit down with Clark Twiddy of Twiddy & Company for an insightful deep dive into the history of Corolla, the Twiddy family legacy, and the evolution of vacation rentals and property management in the Outer Banks. Clark shares how the visitor economy—our regions and North Carolina’s number one economic driver—shapes every aspect of life in the Northern Outer Banks. We discuss the dramatic effects of COVID-19 on global tourism and how the OBX adapted during unprecedented change. With his unmatched knowledge of hospitality, local history, and the business of vacation rentals, Clark offers a rich look at the past, present, and future of this special destination.
