Wonderful stay!

The property was pristine and extremely well-equipped, with so many thoughtful touches. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful, and the walk to the beach felt very doable. We had a great time.

Longtime friends get together

The house was very tastefully renovated/decorated. The owners were very responsive and accommodating and we had a great time! The only thing we had to complain about was when we had to leave today!

Wonderful beach cottage in Duck

This lovely cottage was the perfect place for our stay over Labor Day weekend! It is very comfortable and cozy and beautifully decorated. The kitchen also has everything you might need. It's a short walk to the beach and you don't have to cross Route 12, which is great. It's really nice to have a place that isn't huge, too. Lastly, the owner communicated well and provided all the information we needed. We can't wait to return!
