Duck Down | Oceanfront | Hot Tub | Duck

An oceanfront cottage as cozy as a duck's down feathers, “Duck Down” is a perfect spot for families that want to bond and enjoy easy oceanfront access to the beach. This 5 bedroom, 3 bath house includes a hot tub and dog-friendly fenced yard (including a shaded area under the house). Amazing ocean views await you from the great room and decking. The kitchen has stainless steel appliances and granite countertops. A huge dining table has room for everyone, big or small, all at the table together for meals! There are actually two walkways all the way to the spacious dune top deck and steps to the beach, one for each level. “Duck Down” is furnished with tasteful coastal décor and appointments, pleasing to the eye for discriminating taste without losing the charm of a traditional Duck beach cottage. Look forward to long, lazy beach days, evenings relaxing in the hot tub, or playing with the kids on the beach or in the yard (with Fido, of course!). The kids will love the loft area just for them, accessed with a ladder, with an LCD TV for games and movies.

The views from the deck were amazing. Easy beach access although a lot of steps. The top deck was huge and made a great playground for the grandchildren. Lots of space in the great room for everyone and we all could sit at the dining room table with room to spare.

Location can't be beat!

Great spot on the beach. Great house. Could use a little TLC but didn't affect ability to enjoy the stay. Decks out to the beach and sitting in the hot tub listening to the ocean were wonderful.

Spring 2021

Duck Down was clean, well stocked and had amazing, ocean views. It has a wonderful, fenced yard and deck for dogs and the floor plan is perfect for families. We enjoyed being so close to all of the shops and restaurants! Thanks for a great vacation!

Christmas 2020

The house is a little worn and shows signs of repair work. It needs some tender loving care but was comfortable and right on the beach.

Great spot on the beach for our family and dogs

Specifically reserved this house as it is in Duck where the pups can run free on the beach. The house was super dog friendly with multiple gates restricting access to the beach from the porch, but giving free access to the dog run. The house had plenty of kitchenware and a huge table to seat everyone or do puzzles! Don't plan to use the grill though! Property management was awesome as well. We had a few maintenance things that needed to be addressed and they fixed them right away. Definitely would stay here again!

Location is amazing

We really enjoyed our trip and time at Duck Downs. The convenience to bring our dog and have a family friendly house right on the water was unbeatable. To walk down and back to the beach throughout the day made it so much easier than packing and loading up everything. The house itself is clean and has what you need for your vacation, though it feels a little weathered.
