This unit was perfect for a last minute getaway for my daughter and me. The condo was clean, cozy, comfortable, charming and provided everything we needed. Details provided by host were helpful and much appreciated. Would definitely book Wee Duck again!

Thanks for taking the time to write a review. So glad you enjoyed your stay and happy that our condo met your needs. We’d love for you to return.
Great location. Close to beach and shops. It’s a bit on the smaller side. I did think the pictures were a bit misleading. It does not have a washer and dryer which I did not read closely enough when I booked it. They are located on the main level. There is a distinct musty smell that bothered me, but maybe not others. The bed was difficult to sleep on just because we are use to a firm mattress. Overall good place if you are a couple. It would be close quarters for a family.
We had a wonderful time at this condo! It was adorable and had everything stocked in the kitchen that we needed! The location was perfect ( we were there during the tropical storm and had no issues!)Gwen was a fantastic host! We look forward to visiting Wee Duck Inn again!

I am so glad you weathered the storm and had no problems. I also appreciate that you communicated with me to make sure things were done to prepare for the storm. So glad you enjoyed our condo and we would love to have you return.
condo was nicely located to shops, restaurants, near an amazing boardwalk that we walked every day. Beautifully decorated condo with beach themes was so comfortable and quiet. Close to beach we felt like this was a home away from home, we enjoyed our vacation very much
The condo was located in Duck, NC. The ocean can be seen from the balckny. Shops and restaurants are walkable, or just a very, very short car ride away.

Thanks for taking the time to write your review. We appreciate it, and its helpful to others looking for a good place to spend their vacation. So glad you enjoyed our condo.
We had a great time at the Wee Duck Inn. The location was great, right on the ocean and walking distance to the Duck boardwalk. The condo was decorated nice and had all the amenities. Great for couples and loved the 2nd bathroom.
The condo was the perfect size for our family of 4. The unit was clean and updated and the welcome bag was the perfect surprise to kick off our stay. Drinking our morning coffee on the deck watching the water was amazing. It was an easy walk to the beach (less than a 5 minute walk from door to sand) and we will happily stay again while the kiddos are little. The Vincent’s know how to create the best stay for their guest!

This was such an amazing condo! It was in the perfect location and the beach right outside was amazing!! The boardwalk is close enough to ride bikes to. I would definitely stay here again!! Everything was clean and just as the pictures showed.

That’s great to hear. We are so happy you enjoyed your stay and look forward to your return.
My husband and I had a relaxed and pleasant stay here. The kitchen, though small, had just about everything we needed. The rooms were all spotless and the balcony, with nice seating, was wonderful. An ocean view too! Thanks for everything, Gwen.

Thanks for taking the time to review our property. Sitting on our deck is my favorite thing to do there. So happy you enjoyed your stay.
Everything was truly wonderful! The photos are quite accurate. The kitchen had absolutely everything I needed to cook. Short walk to the gorgeous beach. I will be back.

About the host
Hosted by Gwen Vincent
Since I was a child, I visited the OBX every summer with my family, and when I married, I introduced my husband to it. He fell in love with the area as much as I always had. Together we purchased Wee Duck Inn as an investment property during the time when our children were off to college. It turned out to be our little get away from lifes everyday routine and struggles. Our children, now married, and our grandchildren, love Wee Duck Inn as much as we do, and go as often as they can. We are so happy we made this choice years ago.
Why they chose this property
We love Colony by the Sea, and chose this property because of the location to the ocean and the very quaint town of Duck. In the past 15 years, Duck has grown in such a positive way. We enjoy being in Duck at our condo as much as we possibly can, and take pride in maintaining our condo for our family use as well as the use of many guests. We are happy to share our condo with so many who have come back year after year, making memories with their families and even honeymooners. It's just the right size for couples or small families. We have families that have raised their little ones to think of Wee Duck Inn as their summer home away from home, and reading the memories shared each year as the children grow is very heart warming. It's wonderful knowing that we can offer Wee Duck Inn to others to enjoy as much as we do.
What makes this property unique
Quiet, peaceful and comfortable, yet convenient to everything. Duck offers a mile-long boardwalk with boat launches on the banks of a sound linking restaurants, marsh and forest. Capture the sunset in the evenings while enjoying ice cream and many shops on the boardwalk. A scenic walk for those who enjoy walking. Well maintained and lit at night.
