Privacy

Very nice place to have pool, sun, and hot tub to yourself. Nice and relaxing and fairly private. All is just a short easy walk away; beach, shops, restaurants. The owners seem to be very respectful of privacy making guests truly feel like it's Zen.

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!

Beautiful Gem of a Property in Duck

Beautiful and well-appointed property. Great neighborhood and location near the beach, restaurants and shops. Owners were thoughtful and nice. It actually snowed the day we were to arrive, and they cleared the driveway of snow for us. Interior was smartly decorated and very clean. Thoughtful owners provided advice on local attractions and dining spots. Also provided towels for the pool and blankets for the cool weather. Great owners!

Summer 24

We enjoyed our stay. Great place for a couple to get away and relax. Location is great, pretty much in the middle of town. You can walk to several eating spots and the beach. The swimming pool is excellent as well. The owners are very friendly and responsive. Would definitely recommend if you are visiting the area.

It is very Zen

From the introductory Video of the property to the quick response from the owners. Our experience staying here was the best we ever had in a VRBO unit. The location and amenities both inside and outside of the unit basically leaves you only needing your clothes and something to eat and drink. We would definitely stay here again!

A Jewel in Duck

We highly recommend this place!!! The house was newly renovated, clean, bright and comfortable. We enjoyed using the pool which was right outside our door. The location was great. The beach was close and it was a quick walk to town for restaurants and shopping. We had a very relaxing stay and look forward to visiting again.

The Perfect Rental

Honestly we were impressed! Very nice, very new, very clean, very private! The owners were super easy to communicate with and even give a great walk-around/instructional video explaining the place before you check in! Private road with a 5 minute walk to the beach. Also very close to local coffee shops and restaurants. Apartment was clean and comfortable, while you have tons of outdoor space with a pool and hot tub for a relaxing day!
