Just Magical

Brought our family of 7 to the OBX for the first time and had a great time. The Sandcastle is a great place for a large group. Plenty of room and short walk to the ocean. Short distance to groceries and quaint little town of Duck. We had everything we needed to have a nice getaway. The owner is very responsive and check-in check-out was easy!
