We had my parents and my kids stay with us and the home was perfect for our needs. We cooked quite a bit at the house and it had everything we required outside of a crab pot and wine opener. Everyone slept comfortably, the home itself was very well decorated and maintained and the pool was a highlight. We enjoyed walking to watch the sunset at the sound but did drive to the private beach each day (sometimes there was no parking available). Fay was great to work with through the process. We made wonderful memories and would return.

We enjoyed our second time in 3 years staying here. The house and pool are clean. A convenient walk to the beach and mile walk to town. The owner was available for any issues/concerns.

We have vacationed at OBX for the past 15 years. This house by far is the cleanest, most well equipped house we have rented. The home owner was quick to respond to all questions and provided great information regarding the area. We will be back!

We all had a wonderful time. House is beautiful spacious & very well equipped. The pool & hot tub were great & put to very good use. It’s a short but pleasant walk to the beach. Crossing the Main street may take a little caution & time but we had no problem with it.
Fay was easy to contact & got back to us timely on the few issues that we did encounter. The lights in & around the pool did not work & weren’t able to be fixed while we were there. We had a small issue with sugar ants near the kitchen which Fay addressed as soon as she could.
The two families staying on the second floor did notice an odor that seemed like pet odor. I didn’t contact Fay regarding that as I wasn’t aware of it early in our stay.
All in all we had a great vacation and have many wonderful memories to cherish.
Thank you Fay for sharing your lovely home with us.

The house filled our needs perfectly! It was close enough to the beach to easily walk and the shops were also quite close by. The pool was and hot tub were also great for swimming and relaxing without the sand or having to leave "home." The kitchen was equipped enough to make meals as well, which we did. All in all it was an excellent property and we had a wonderful time :)

First off I’d like to say Fay was wonderful. She made everything simple and was always responsive. The house was beautiful, clean and welcoming. Had everything we needed plus more. The pool and jacuzzi was amazing! Short walk to the beautiful beach. Would definitely book again at this property. The whole family enjoyed it. From ages 8-64.

We absolutely loved our stay here. We appreciated the open communication Fay offered us during our vacation; that was much appreciated. This home met all our needs and the common spaces were great for some family time! We loved the shaded outdoor space and we greatly enjoyed the pool and hot tub. It was just a short walk to the private beach! We all enjoyed the beach immensely and made wonderful memories! We would absolutely recommend this place!

There didn't seem to be anything really missing that's included in this property: pool, hot tub, lots of hot water, beach and pool toys and equipment. The place was very clean, which isn't always the case, either. Just use caution when crossing the road, but drivers did stop. It's a short walk to the beach.

Wonderful house big enough for our big group. Close to beach. Particularly enjoyed the pool and the yard, made for games. Very well stocked. Everyone, ages 4 to 78, thoroughly enjoyed themselves.

We absolutely loved our stay here. The home comfortably slept us 6 adults and the common spaces were great for hanging out / relaxing. We loved how private the property was and thoroughly enjoyed the pool and hot tub. Can’t forget about the short walk to the private beach! Hard to beat. Fay was amazing and super communicative. Lots of great memories formed here. Would absolutely recommend this place!

My family came for our first trip back to Duck after a couple of years not coming. The owner made the entire process of renting the property to accessing the property as simple as it could be. The property was wonderful. We had so much room. The house is gorgeous, clean and had all kinds of extras. We enjoyed the pool daily. The walk to the beach was short although you could drive over and park. We did both. The shops in Duck are a close walk and my teenage daughter and her friend made the trip on their own and enjoyed themselves. Overall wonderful experience and I highly recommend this property and owner to anyone.

First time in Duck and staying at this property made it an amazing experience! Fay was very communicative of what the property already had and what we needed to bring with us. The pool and hot tub were amazing after a long day at the beach. Great location, we rented bikes for the week and we’re able to get to shops/restaurants easily. Definitely recommend!

We had an amazing time at Island Beach Cottage. The house was perfect for our extended family and we all enjoyed the pool. The house is in a great location with a short walk to the beach and to Duck. The house is well outfitted for the beach (the beach wagon was perfect for toting my toddler grandson) and for cooking. The owner could not have been more welcoming and answered questions promptly. This is a A+ property and I highly recommend it

This property was amazing! Very clean with personal touches from owners. The location was perfect to bike or walk to the Sound, Ocean or town of Duck. If you rent house be sure to either bring your own bikes or rent them. The teenagers rode their bikes to the town a few mornings to the book store/coffee shop. They enjoyed coffee/tea and read books. The salt water pool was very refreshing. The house had many beach supplies available such as wagon, chairs, umbrellas and boggie boards. I usually stay right on the beach but the cost of staying on the beach is so expensive. I would rent this house again without question.

We had a great experience. Fay was super helpful and easy to communicate with through the whole process. The house was a close walk to the beach, and an an easy walk or quick drive to the center of town. We had kids from a year old to 8 years old and they all enjoyed the house! The pool was great, hot tub was great, and the house was stocked with everything you can possibly need!
We definitely will be back!

We had a great family vacation at OBX. Fay was incredible throughout the entire process. She ensured that everything was smooth sailing. She really wants you to have a wonderful vacation. Her rental home is lovely and the pool and backyard are great. We are a family of 12 and the layout of the home worked very well for us. This was our 2nd time in Duck. We tried to book here in 2020, but it was booked solid. If we come back to Duck, we would definitely stay here again.

This was a great property for our friends and family to come together for our annual summer trip. It was super clean. Very quiet. Only 1 mile walk to town. The owner was prompt in her responses to any of our texts. Gated area of the pool made us feel safe with our toddlers. Loved that it was a salt water pool. It was great having an extra refrigerator outside.
Only ‘negatives’ were the 2nd floor shared bath had a pocket door that didn’t shut completely. A little awkward.. Outdoor deck/stairs had some loose wood boards. And the game table is starting to fall apart.
Easy fixes. All and all, enjoyed our time!
