Fantastic location, house was perfect, pool and yard are just right for larger family especially those with kids and teens. Also great for fishing since can walk to sound. Had 4 teen boys with us and they loved location because rented bikes and road back and forth to fishing at sound, beach and shops in ducks. Highly recommend!!!!

Outstanding property. Host communication was excellent and the location was excellent. Everything was extremely clean, kitchen was well stocked with essentials, and pool/beach supplies were available for guest use. Literally a couple of minutes walk away from the public beach, and a parking permit is provided if you prefer to drive.

We had such a wonderful stay! The owners were great to work with and were very attentive and responsive. They truly seemed to want to make sure you enjoyed your stay and had everything you needed.The property itself was great and had everything our family needed. During our 4 night stay, we couldn’t swim at the beach at all because of the dangerous rip currents. But it didn’t phase the kids one bit because with the pool and hot tub, there was still plenty of swimming to be done. And with the beach just a short walk away, we could still walk over and enjoy the view. We’d definitely stay here again and highly recommend this home to anyone visiting Duck!

Amazing Vacation

We have vacationed at OBX for the past 15 years. This house by far is the cleanest, most well equipped house we have rented. The home owner was quick to respond to all questions and provided great information regarding the area. We will be back!

Perfect first stay in Duck

First time in Duck and staying at this property made it an amazing experience! Fay was very communicative of what the property already had and what we needed to bring with us. The pool and hot tub were amazing after a long day at the beach. Great location, we rented bikes for the week and we’re able to get to shops/restaurants easily. Definitely recommend!

Great Vacation Home

We absolutely loved our stay here. We appreciated the open communication Fay offered us during our vacation; that was much appreciated. This home met all our needs and the common spaces were great for some family time! We loved the shaded outdoor space and we greatly enjoyed the pool and hot tub. It was just a short walk to the private beach! We all enjoyed the beach immensely and made wonderful memories! We would absolutely recommend this place!

Just Perfect!

The house filled our needs perfectly! It was close enough to the beach to easily walk and the shops were also quite close by. The pool was and hot tub were also great for swimming and relaxing without the sand or having to leave "home." The kitchen was equipped enough to make meals as well, which we did. All in all it was an excellent property and we had a wonderful time :)

Short walk to beach and sound

We enjoyed our stay at island cottage. Even though there is no crosswalk at the road to cross for the beach, there is a stop light at the next street and that makes it very easy to cross without a crosswalk. The kids loved the pool. Fay was great at communicating and very helpful with the checkin and checkout process.

Fun in Duck

We had an amazing time at Island Beach Cottage. The house was perfect for our extended family and we all enjoyed the pool. The house is in a great location with a short walk to the beach and to Duck. The house is well outfitted for the beach (the beach wagon was perfect for toting my toddler grandson) and for cooking. The owner could not have been more welcoming and answered questions promptly. This is a A+ property and I highly recommend it

Perfect friends getaway

Thanks to Fay who made our stay wonderful. The large pool and hot tub were perfect as they were, but became indispensable when the storms made beach swimming impossible. The home was large, so we had plenty of room, and got to enjoy some meals out on the deck. Walk to the beach was 5 minutes. (One thing to know: you've got to bring your own toilet paper.) Would be extremely hard to top at this price.
