Knotts
Island is a small community tucked into the extreme
northeastern corner of North Carolina, only two miles from the
Atlantic Coast and actually touching the Virginia Border.
It doesn't look like it on the map but it is indeed an island,
surrounded by water and impassable marshland.

Over the years,
the island has grown from a remote rural area into an exurb of
the greater Hampton Roads area.
Residents have the experience of country living but there's no
mistaking that the rest of the world is slowly moving in. One
mom-and-pop general store is now under threat from a corporate box
store. The once all-volunteer fire department now has full-time
EMT staff. And houses have been springing up over the years on
farmland that once had corn and soybeans springing up.
There's still a lot of hunting and fishing, boating, outdoors
activities, and beer drinking going on. We'll keep that alive
and well on this page.
This page is a snapshot of the old site, Knotts Island Online
Dot Com. That was the original and unofficially official web
site for the island for nearly two decades. Social media and
ambitious web masters pushed it slowly into the dust bin of
history.
