Dancing Dolphin | 240 ft from the beach | Private Pool, Hot Tub, Dog Friendly | Duck
Dancing Dolphin is an pet-friendly Outer Banks escape that your family will love! An open top-level layout (with great views) keeps everyone connected while allowing plenty of room to spread out. The thoughtfully designed kitchen features granite countertops and an island bar, connecting the dining area and living space with beautiful hardwood floors throughout. A loft game table offers an additional area for cards, poker, or puzzles.
Multi-level decks wrap around the home, providing plenty of space to relax outdoors, and the rooftop overlook offers a stunning ocean view. The four master bedrooms all have an attached bathroom and are spacious and comfortable. A ground-level rec room with a pool table adds another fun hangout spot after a day at the beach.
With the private community beach access just 200 feet away, beach days are effortless. After a morning on the sand, return to your own private oasis featuring a sparkling pool, a hot tub for unwinding, and plenty of seating to relax in the salty breeze. An outdoor shower and changing area keep the sand outside where it belongs, and the fish cleaning station makes preparing the day's fresh catch a breeze. Whether grilling up dinner or lounging with a book, the outdoor spaces are designed for making the most of your time by the coast.
Located in the quiet and family-friendly Carolina Dunes community, Dancing Dolphin offers easy access to Duck's walking and biking path, making it a great choice for joggers and explorers.

Great spot, so close to the beach
Excellent house. The entrance to the beach is just about across the street. Very relaxing and great help from the rental agency, as this was a last minute rental.

Beautiful Location
The location was beautiful, with easy access to the beach. The house was large enough to fit everyone, but the listing says sleeps 14, we had 13 people, and two of our teenagers needed to sleep on the couch. The home could also use some increased pest control. Overall, our stay was amazing. Check-in and out easy, communication with renter great, close to many amenities. Loved it was dog friendly!

Spring Duck
Very nice house with lots of decks and excellent views. Clean throughout. King size beds very comfy. Kids complained the single beds were rock hard. Hot tub worked perfectly. Beach a stone's throw away. Quiet street in a pleasant neighborhood. Ten minute bike ride to town on a wide bike path. I would definitely rent this house again. Two minor annoyances. 1) The showers. Cheap plastic inserts. Cramped. The architect must've thought very tiny people would be occupying the residence. 2) A few more essentials like dish soap, salt and pepper, kitchen brush, bar soap, etc would be appreciated. But, again, minor annoyances. A five star house.

Great Location and indoor space
A nice property but it would benefit from some updating and maintenance. Lovely indoor space and decks. The property was clean but the furniture and appliances are a bit worn and ready for an update. Internet was good. Beds comfortable. The kitchenware and small appliances need updating -cracked and chipped china and not enough of some items. Needs some decorating and TLC.
