Our family had a great time in Duck for an October Fall Break. We enjoyed time both at the beach and in downtown village. The house is perfectly located on a quiet street with a few minutes walk to the beach. The access to the beach is on the same street as the house so very easy. Morning and evening strolls on the beach were quiet and relaxing. A nice touch was the bicycles included at the house when we wanted to go into Duck's downtown on the sound side. The bike ride is less than 15 minutes and the downtown area is very bike friendly. The house had plenty of room for the six of us (two adults, four older kids). The kitchen has a great set-up for cooking and there are plenty of utensils. We used both the stove and the outdoor charcoal grill for meals. TV set up was easy to add our Netflix and Amazon accounts when the kids wanted to watch something. My favorite feature of the house was all the decks for maximum outdoor relaxing. You can see both the sound and the ocean from the decks out front. What a great way to start the day with a coffee and a view of the sunrise from the beach and then back to the decks for happy hour and a sundown view from the sound side. What else do you need?
