We had a wonderful stay and would definitely come back. The hosts were incredibly responsive and easy to communicate with, which made everything feel smooth and stress-free from start to finish.The condo itself is newly updated and beautifully done. It was clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully maintained. We especially loved the backyard space, which was a peaceful and inviting place to relax.The neighborhood felt very quiet and safe, and parking was convenient and hassle-free. The location is also a big plus; within a pleasant walking distance to the beach, as well as shops and restaurants.Overall, a great experience and a place we’d happily recommend to others! Don’t wait, just book this place, you won’t regret it!

This was our first visit to the Outer Banks and we couldn't have asked for a better property to stay at. It is perfectly situated in walking distance to the beach, the sound, and main hub of shops in Duck. The amenities are private and the owners are super helpful and easy to communicate with. We'll gladly stay here again!

The unit delivers as promised. It was Zen from the moment we arrived until the minute we left. What makes the unit so special is the outdoor living space with pool, jacuzzi and recreation area. But the inside is very finely appointed, also. The owners are fabulous to work with. Added to that, Duck itself is like a stress refuge. The whole area exudes peacefulness and contentment. I would certainly stay there again and recommend you do, also!

We had a wonderful time at Duck! The condo was perfect for my hubs and me. We loved having our own private pool and hot tub in the back yard. The condo is positioned in the middle of the road which meant it was close to the beach and the town. We spent days at the beach and evenings in the pool and hot tub. Perfect trip for our anniversary!

Stayed here for a long weekend with my girlfriend and this place was perfect. Short walk to the beach and everywhere in Duck. Also comes with beach parking which made it easy to get to and from the beach with a cooler, chairs, etc. The private pool and hot tub was great too, especially when the beach was crowded. Plenty of towels and beach/pool supplies as well. Dan was very responsive and helpful. Will definitely stay here again.

Relax at the Beach in Duck NC

cozy apartment perfect for a couple looking for a relaxing beach getaway. we had our own backyard pool, and the beach was as close to ‘private’ as you will find anywhere, and only 400 yards away. while the unit does not have its own washer/dryer, all I needed was a few tee shirts, bermuda shorts, and my bathing suit in this beachfront community.

First time in Duck

My husband and I stayed for several days and we can’t add anymore superlatives to other reviews. The communication, location, privacy and accommodations were top-notch. The place was just fabulous and having a private pool and large yard to extend our environment outside was unlike anything we’ve experienced. Such a perfect location to be able to walk to beach or the village. Great memories made!
