The Sandy Duck is a charming colorful cottage that sits in a perfect location - exactly between the ocean and the sound in Duck, NC.

When it's time for a break from the beach, relax in the large rope hammock, play a game of horseshoes, or bring (or rent) bikes to experience Duck's multi-use paths and trails.

In the evening, stroll down to Duck's unique sound side boardwalk where you can shop, drink, and dine while taking in the spectacular sunsets.

Loved it!

This cottage had everything we could have possibly needed and everything was in great condition. The screened porch is very large and comfy, perfect for morning coffee and evening relaxing. Both the beach and the village are easy walk and the cart made carrying cooler and chairs easy. Loved our stay.

Comfortable and convenient

We were very happy with our 6 night stay in April. The house was comfortable for 4 adults and we really liked hanging out on the screen porch. The location was great with a 5 minute walk to the beach and about 15 minute walk to downtown Duck. We drove up to Corolla and down to Nags Head to explore other areas and enjoy activities like the Wright Bothers Memorial, Elizabethan Gardens, Lost Colony National Park and the Wild Horse Adventure tour. We were very happy we chose Duck for our base. The downtown is very appealing with a great boardwalk, nice shops and good restaurants.

Sunrise Sunset

From sunrise walks on the Atlantic each morning to sunset walks each evening on Currituck Sound we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The new kitchen is lovely with everything we needed and we spent lots of time chatting and reading on the delightful screened in porch. Delightful home and location - we will definitely be back!

Great house

We had the best stay in this wonderfully located beach house. It’s perfectly situated to see both glimpses of the ocean and the sound from the house. We LOVED the screened in porch so much! It was a lovely October trip for us and we had a good mixture of time in town, at the beach, and relaxing at the home. My kids especially enjoyed the swings and the hammock beneath the porch. We hope to stay here again in the not too distant future. :)

Ideal location for our visit

Love the location - easy to walk to the beach, sound, Duck shops and restaurants! Also, easy to drive to Corolla and to Mateo for sightseeing and dinner. The property is just as shown and described once we got the right house number (not 126)! We appreciate the dining recommendations of the hosts and learning of the property and Duck history. No issues at all. Thank you for sharing your cozy home.

Family friendly get away

This was our second time staying at this house and we love it! We travel with another family (each family having 2 parents and 2 young kids). The house is perfect for having one family sleep upstairs and one downstairs. Plenty of space for everyone to play inside and out and an easy walk or bike ride to the beach. The new screened in porch was aaaaamazing! We can’t want to go back!

Step back in time

We thoroughly enjoyed our vacation here. It was a bit like staying at Grandma and Grandpa's house as there are some updates but other parts of the house are showing their age. It was one of the first houses built in Duck. We were disappointed to find that there was no hot tub as the VRBO description says there is one. We would definitely stay here again as the place was clean, the screened porch was AMAZING, the location to the beach and town were both a very easy walk, and though dated it was clean and comfortable.

Great Location, Screened in Porch a favorite

This is within walking distance to the beach and the area of duck with the boardwalk, shops etc. A favorite was the screened in porch, large and has couches and chairs that are comfortable and a big table for eating outside. Adds a whole new room to your stay. Also the kitchen was well stocked and there were chairs and beach items in the garage. Just bring your Beach Towel.
