About this house rental

Our charming comfortable five bedroom /five bathroom beach house with large in-ground pool (un-heated) and hot tub is located semi-ocean front (just one house back from the beach) from the beach in Duck. It is only 100 steps from the driveway to the dune (OK...I have long legs, so it may take you 125!!). We are only a 10 minute walk to the quaint village of Duck, Outer Banks North Carolina, right opposite Duck Donuts! Our spacious ocean side outdoor decks and seating, the tiki bar and pool entertaining area around our large in-ground pool, coupled with our large lot and semi-ocean front location, makes this one of the nicest homes in Duck.

Inside our home we have three levels. The ground level has a Twin/twin bedroom, bath and TV room with glass sliding doors that open to the swimming pool entertaining area with tiki bar, hot tub, outdoor shower, spacious pool deck, and covered porch seating. The laundry area with full sized washer and dryer are also located on the ground level.

The mid-level area has our fully renovated kitchen with all new appliances, living room with new sofa and matching chairs with large flat-screen, full sized tv. Our dining room seats 10. Bedrooms on this level are a queen bedroom with private bath and one King bedroom with hall bath. The top level has a loft reading/office open area overlooking the lower living room/dining area with glass sliders leading out to our top deck with spectacular views of the ocean, sunrises and lovely sunsets. There is one king bedroom with private bath and one queen bedroom with hall bath.

Note: No elevator. Stairs to main living area and to second story bedrooms. Linens and towels are NOT included in our rental, but can be rented by guests directly with a linen rental company to help guests keep their costs down. Or guests may bring their own linens and towels. Pillows, blankets and quilts are provided.

The village of Duck is quaint, beautiful and welcoming with wonderful local unique shops, cozy cafes, grocery stores, delicious restaurants and water sports entertainment. Duck also has a unique sound side coastal boardwalk that provides great bird watching over the Sound and beautiful sunset vistas, dining, shopping, and dog-walking. Kayakers float by adding to the scenery. Great for families and couples who wish to walk around Duck after a fantastic day on the beach.

For car trips and sight seeing during rainy days, you are spoiled for choice: lighthouses, shopping, and a must visit to Jockey's Ridge, the east coast's largest sand dune and site of the Wright brothers first flight! Visit the Wright Brothers national monument and museum nearby and learn about our country's aviation history and first flight. Head north to Corolla for tours to visit the wild banker ponies, protected and wild. Year round the town of Duck is full of wonderful things to see, places to shop, eat, and enjoy beach time.

The host instructions were clear and very helpful. The house is perfect, within walking distance of Duck proper. the house is 100 yards from the beach and the walkway to the beach is right across the street. The house is very well furnished. Can't get much better.

My only wish is for a more comfortable sofa. There is no support for bad backs

The house was excellent. The house was very clean and the host was perfect .our family and dog loved it . The only one thing that I found that needs fixing . The outside grill could use a upgrade . One burner didn’t work and the ignition button wouldn’t work. We would definitely stay there again.

The house appears as pictured. Comfortable stay with enough space for our group (4 adults, one toddler). Excellent location as it’s just steps from the public beach entrance. Super quiet neighborhood and easy walk to the main thoroughfare for dining, shopping, etc. Main complaint is about cleanliness upon arrival. There was sand in all the living spaces upstairs and down (we entered with bare feet so we know we didn’t drag it in). Appliances were not wiped down. Greasy finger prints on the fridge, microwave, and stove. Crumbs on the stove top. Spills left on the cabinets and floors. It seems like all they did was clean the bathrooms (thankfully they were clean), and vacuum the carpeted area. There was dog food or cereal under the couch so I had to vacuum that up myself. In the process I accidentally stepped on a floor vent that had a plastic cover and my foot fell right through into the vent. Both my daughter and I cut our feet from accidentally stepping on that vent right in front of the sliding glass door. I messaged the host with the list of issues. He said he’d pass the feedback along to the cleaners and did not acknowledge the injuries or offer to make anything right (such as offering to send the cleaners back). It’s a shame because it’s a great location, but due to the host’s indifference we will not be back.
