What's nearby

  • One of the northernmost towns along the coast in North Carolina, Duck is an idyllic town on the shores of the Currituck Sound. This shot was taken from the town's boardwalk while looking West over the sounds. It is advisable to visit the location in Winter as that is off season - so you can spend more time taking in the beauty of the North Carolina coastline and also sunsets are usually much more picturesque around the time owing to the cooler temperatures and lower amount of atmospheric haze. Plenty of things around Duck to see. Further north, there is the Currituck Lighthouse where you can climb the steps to the top of the lighthouse. North of Corolla, there is an area where you can drive along the coast on the sand - 4X4s a must. Here you can spot some Spanish Mustangs, horses out in the wild. If you're lucky, you can spot them running along the beach in the surf. I'd recommend taking a tour through the Corolla Wild Horse Fund - the money from the tours is used to help the wild horses in every which way possible and the staff are knowledgeable and friendly. Thank you for stopping by and for the support. #colorful #goldenhour #weekend #waterlust #bestof5

The property waa truly fantastic. The bed was incredibly comfortable and it was wonderful to have a full size fridge. We appreciated having beach chairs available for our use and loved that was such a short walk to the beach. 100% recommend staying here!!

Cottage in the oaks

The cottage was very quaint. It was clean and well furnished. Although small it has what we needed Since I’m a bit disabled it was a little challenging at times but that was my choice to pick this particular place . I was a bit disappointed that we never met the owners

Anniversary Getaway

This was the perfect cozy cottage for a weekend anniversary trip. Great location within walking distance to the beach and to lots of shops and restaurants. It was the perfect place to stay to be away from the noise but also within in a few minutes of everything. The only downside was we wanted to grill one night and the gas tank was rusted shut so we weren't able to grill. Overall we had a great experience.

The tiny house was cozy and clean and there were a lot of thoughtful little touches like recommendations to restaurants and coffeeshops. We appreciated the clever use of space and the close walk to the beach. It was a lovely getaway. A couple suggestions: 1) include instructions for the hot plate . 2) Store items outside in a shed; the property looked a little cluttered.

Lovely stay in OBX

Adorable cottage and wonderful stay! Would absolutely recommend for a couple looking for a relaxing place very close to the beach! We brought our pup and he loved looking at the view of the trees out of the large windows. We even had some deer visitors at the windows right when we checked in! The place is super private with a very comfortable large bed and was well equipped with everything we needed. A fantastic location in Southern Shores close to Duck and such a short walk to the beach. I especially appreciate the historic preservation aspect of this cottage and that it’s a repurposed former life saving station building. Host also responded to all communication almost immediately! 10/10 would absolutely stay here again!

Cozy, yet high quality and walking distance to beach

We had such a wonderful stay at the cottage! John and his family were excellent hosts and thought of everything to make sure we had a comfortable, easy and relaxing stay. You can easily walk to the beach and the town of Duck is a 5 minute drive away. We slept like a baby every night with the King size Sleep Number bed and black out shades. There’s also an outdoor shower to rinse off with before entering the cottage. Highly recommend if you’re a couple looking for a quiet, relaxing weekend in Duck!

A coxy cottage & restful adventures in OBX!

My husband, dog, and I thoroughly enjoyed our time in the OBX and were happy to come home from our adventures each night to a cozy cottage. Located behind the owner's home, the cottage is quaint, thoughtfully designed, and comfortable. The sleep number bed was fun to fiddle with, the kitchenette was nicely stocked, the bathroom (although small) was functional/practical, and the swivel TV mount made watching a movie before bed feasible! We loved being able to use the beach chairs provided and had we stayed longer, we would have likely utilized the grill. The outdoor shower & water hose made beach clean up for us and our dog quick & easy. The space was clean, well-stocked, practically designed and tastefully decorated. We loved the huge window (so did our dog) and ample privacy (even in someone's back yard!). Although you can't hear ocean waves (you can hear nearby cars from the bathroom and porch) the location was ideally close to Duck (5 minute drive) and a short quarter mile/5 minute walk to the beach. The beach access was lovely and desolate. I am sure the lack of people was likely because we were not there in peak season but the cottage is located on a street without public beach access parking which likely makes this section of the beach less busy even during peak season. There were plenty of close by dog-friendly spots and we loved the close proximity to the Duck boardwalk. We would for sure stay here again!
