About this property
OBX Box -- Semi Ocean Front w/ Pool and hot tub - Just a Minute to the Beach!
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.
Bedding: Two kings, two queens, two Twins.
Amenities include: private pool (not heated- open May to mid-October only) bar area by pool, hot tub by pool (available year round), outside shower, cable TV, free WiFi, DVD player, dishwasher, cook top stove, oven, charcoal barbecue grilling, washer and dryer, decks with deck furniture, pool chairs/furniture, parking for four cars.
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.
Cancellation policy: Full refund if cancelled more than 60 days before the start of your stay.

We loved everything about this stay. The house was beautiful and in an ideal location. We could walk to restaurants, stores, and the boardwalk. The beach was steps away. It was private, quiet and very relaxing. We hope to come back and stay again!
We have stayed here before and have already booked next year. Great location, perfect layout for families, dog friendly, and awesome pool. Hosts are very responsive and take excellent care of this property.
House is very well designed for the location. Loft to look out to the ocean and the sunrise. Accommodated our group of 9 very comfortably. Weather was awesome!
ObX Box was a perfect location in Duck. Ocean views and a 10 minute walk to shops and restaurants. The property was very nice and well stocked with basic supplies. Amazing amenities... pool, hot tub, outdoor bar, laundry, dvds and games/puzzles. 5baths
Spent the weekend in OBX to celebrate my husbands and daughters birthdays! Great location and loved the house!!!We will definitely keep this house as a front runner when we vacation again in the OBX!!Owners communicated right away with all necessary information!!
Spacious cottage, room for the whole family to have private space. Great location, short walk to beach. Our first trip to Duck, and this cottage offered everything we needed. Loved that it was pet friendly for our dog. All appliances worked perfectly, everything was exactly as described. Can’t wait to come back!!
Beautiful place, in a peaceful neighborhood. Beach access is right across the street. No complaints. Great shops right there. The owner, Mike was great, he responded all the questions right away.
We had a wonderful stay! The location was just perfect for our family. The beach is just steps away, shops and restaurants a short walk down the road. The house itself was a perfect base for our family (grands, adult “kids”, 2 lil ones and our fur baby). Having great weather in November was an added perk! We would definitely stay again!
We loved the location of the house - so close to the beach, especially with toddlers. Great pool and hot tub! We’ve rented this house several years and would love to come back.
Easy communication with host, property was as advertised. No major issues with any of the amenities. Beach access right across the street, just a couple minutes walk away. Would be a good house for several families.
Loved home and location!! Clean. My only comment would be the furniture in family room could be updated. Beds are comfy which is always a plus!❤️. Thank u!
Location cannot be beat, steps away from the ocean and walk to shops/restaurants, the house has everything you need (except linens but that fact is well disclosed in the listing), hot tub and pool (we will be back to enjoy pool which was closed for winter, also disclosed, of course), outdoor shower and excellent communication with the Owner. What more could one ask for?
We had the most amazing family gathering at this location! Layout of house provided everyone ample space to gather or relax with a book. Spectacular views of the pool area and ocean from the deck. Location of house was perfect for walking to the beach as well as the shops and restaurants in town. Hosts were highly responsive and ensured we had a wonderful stay. We look forward to staying again in the future!
We had a great stay at the house, which had everything we needed. Great living space, out door decks, and the house is across from the beach entrance! It’s a 1 minute walk to the the beach, which is less than 40 yards away. Great views from all of the decks of the ocean. Easy access and great to work with the hosts.
This was our 5th year staying at OBX for Thanksgiving week and we just signed up for our 6th. Love the place! Each year brings surprises of upgrades that keep the property current and nice. The walk to the beach takes 2 minutes and the town of Duck is just down the street. Couldn't be better.
Loved this location. Near the beach and town. Clean home. Puppy loved it too. Wish we could book it again same week next year. Good value for the price. Excellent host. So responsive.
This home is perfect. We were a family vacation and the set up with 5 bedrooms and 5 baths is perfect! There are 3 comfortable living spaces to allow for a getaway if needed. Lots of comfortable spots to curl up with a book, but also lots of great spaces for the family to gather all together for a meal or game time!
This house is steps from the beach, beautifully appointed, with great decor and thoughtful details. The owners regularly update the house, and are friendly and responsive. A perfect house for a smaller group.
We enjoyed our stay. The property is perfectly located in Duck. Walking distance to the town a street off the beachfront with very close public access. Each bedroom has access to their own bathroom and the public areas were great. We communicated to owner concern on cleanliness. We would rent this property again.
