CAPTAINS QUARTERS - AN ALL INCLUSIVE VACATION RENTAL LOCATED IN SOUTHERN SHORES!

Tucked away behind mature olive trees on a sandy corner lot in convenient "Southern Shores", this traditional beach box is only 300 yards or a 5 minute straight walk to the beach. Captains Quarters is 1000 square feet of practical and inviting vintage nautical charm, everything a small family needs on just one level for an affordable price. Custom tree-top decking offers private yet casual outside relaxing and dining, even a captain's look-out wth glimpses of ocean blue between rooflines. Below the cottage, thoughtful amenities include the compact carport, 2-stall beach shower, deluxe fish cleaning station with sink, full laundry, and a decked beach staging area with bench.
Guests at Captains Quarters will have private access to outstanding ocean and soundside community amenities, including a secondary "family-friendly" beach park that features ample private parking, showers & jons, picnic area & fishing pond. Our guests will also have access to a private soundside park with optimal sunset and waterfowl views, a soundside marina with boat launch, and some outstanding bike trails that network the entire area. Captains Quarters is located less than 3 miles south of the memorable destination of Duck central, home to lots of popular dining, shopping, world class spas and watersports. A lighted crosswalk at the corner of Dolphin Run provides safer access to the beach 24/7. Captains Quarters features direct property access to bike /foot paths, enabling our guests to stay as active and well connected as they want to be, yet have a central and cozy spot to retreat. Three beach comber style bikes will be available for use.
Parking in the circular drive is ample for up to three vehicles, or two with a boat trailer. The half acre property is fully naturalized, but offers a side yard space conducive to horse shoes or cornhole play.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 1.5 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

The Perfect Week Away…

We always enjoy our stay at Dolphin’s Run! Great location, terrific hosts, and the perfect getaway! It’s the most cozy and inviting place to enjoy some much needed downtime and family time! It’s also just a few minutes walk to the beach with a lot of restaurants and shops just a short drive away! Thanks again for a wonderful week!

Best Family Vacation To Date

Our stay at Captain's Quarters was beyond awesome! The renter was so friendly and accommodating and answered all of our questions promptly. Just a short walk to the beach and a quick drive to a private access beach with lifeguard on duty, the location of Captain's Quarters was perfect.

We all loved the house, it was homey and reminded us of our favorite aunt’s home. Very well stocked with basic necessities and ice cold water to drink upon our arrival. The only negative thing is when it rains the stairs are slick.

Great location, clean and quaint!

Stayed for a full week with spouse and two kids. The home is nice for a small family. Best features include the cleanliness and location. It really was a short 5 minute walk to the beach that never seemed too busy even during peak vacation season. We liked that it was within bike distance to Duck and to grocery stores and a fun escape room. We rode bikes to avoid the heavy traffic days on Friday and Saturday. Otherwise, it seems in the middle of alot of sight seeing options. Horses 45 minutes north, Pea Island and Roanoke 45 minutes south. Crabbing and fishing at a nearby community marina. The house is like a time capsule from the 1980's, which was actually fun and nostalgic to us young gen x folks. Right down to a Tupperware kool aid container. The entire time we felt like we were staying in a great aunt or nana's beach house. Immaculate and well stocked with everything you needed for a week at the beach. Including bikes, wagon, beach toys and umbrellas. The AC worked well, tv's in all the rooms, plenty of hot water. No complaints, would stay here again.

Family-friendly Beach Access

We had a great week at Captain’s quarters. Our family with two preschool age kids greatly appreciated that the house was stocked with more than enough paper products, soaps, towels and bedding, way more than any rental I’ve seen. The walk to the beach was extremely easy with two small kids and the house included everything for the beach we needed (umbrella, wagon, toys, chairs, etc.). There was ample outdoor space and the living space was nice and open. Although it’s a 1.5 bath, the half bath was so large, we could use it for storing toiletries and it felt like a second full bath. The house was very clean (and I’m very picky!) We fell in love with Southern Shores and will definitely be back!

Cozy Clean and Close to Everything!

It was a perfect stay for my little family! Just a few minutes walk until your toes are in the sand. It was in close proximity to everything you would need… grocery store, restaurants, and surrounding towns. It also had some fun trails around that my husband and kids explored by bike and scooter. They rode to the little town of Duck one day. The place was perfectly cozy, clean, and well stocked! Communication with the owners was great. We had such a wonderful time we already booked another stay!

Perfect and rustic

We loved this place! It had everything we needed and then some. Quick short walk to the beach, but there's a wagon to help with the haul. Plenty of beach items (chairs, umbrella, toys, bikes, etc.). There were six of us (3 teenagers and one pre-teen) and we had plenty of space. I enjoyed my morning tea on the upper level and the porch swing was great for relaxing at night. The shower underneath was very handy for beach returns. We would definitely stay again!

Captain's Quarters

Captain's Quarters is a great beach home and our vacation there was wonderful. We were are group of 2 couples and 1 single and there was plenty of room. The beds were comfortable, the house was clean, and we were provided with everything we needed from paper products to beach items. The house has a quaint, homey feel with cozy furniture and cute nautical décor. The decks outside are great for relaxing with a cup of coffee and the outdoor shower is very handy when coming from the beach. Beach access is 2 short blocks over and shops are a quick drive. The property manager was prompt with info and communication was excellent. My only issue with the stay was the lack of curtains in the bedroom. With just blinds there is a lot of bright light early in the morning and this makes sleeping past sunrise a bit difficult. I'd definitely recommend Captain's Quarters and would stay there again.

Home Away From Home

This home was perfect for our family of six. As soon as you walk in, you feel as if you're at home. The owners are extremely kind and ready to answer any questions you may have. I have to say that our favorite thing was the enclosed shower which is located underneath the house. It provides cold as well as hot water. It's sooo very convenient after a long day at the beach. You'll never drag sand into the house if you utilize this awesome feature. Hope to visit again one day.

Late May Beach Week

Our family was very impressed with the cleanliness and many thoughtful touches the owners have provided at this beach house. Cold bottled water, paper goods, towels, plenty of beach chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, even a box of extra toiletries in the bathroom for things one may have forgotten. We have only two things we think could use improvement. The beds, and some of the outdoor furniture. We're hoping they'll get to it in time, because we'll happily come back! Great location, pleasant to deal with...a real pleasure.
