Week at Duck

House was in a good location … 8 houses from beach ! Family loved the pool area … comfortable with lots of seating . Kids loved the loft area . Kitchen well stocked. Deck furnished well . Outside wood of deck in need of refurbishing / replacing . Bedroom floor bath sink drain not working . Lower level queen bed mattress needs replacing . Front grill was in horrible shape, but was replaced the day we left . All in all the owner was very responsive and we had a great week !

Relaxed beach getaway

We loved our stay at Suzanne’s beach home. The house is perfectly located for easy walking access to the beach and town. The kids loved the loft and the pool. The outdoor shower was perfect for a rinse-off after pool or beach. Quite relaxing and enjoyable!

Nice Home-Friendly Owners

We would stay again! The location was great-owners were very easy to communicate with when needed. I will say, the cleaning people could do a better job. But the isn’t a reflection of the owners or the house.

About the host

Hosted by Suzanne Elms

We are the Elms family and we live just a few hours north west in Richmond VA with our 14 year old son and 12 year old daughter. Suzanne grew up in Va Beach VA and has always loved and missed the beach. So when the opportunity presented itself, we took the plunge and finally a dream has come true of owning our own beach house...a house that we are happy to share with other families to create memories to last a lifetime. Hope you all enjoy your time here and fall in love with Duck like we have. Greg and Suzanne Elms

Why they chose this property

We have vacationed in Duck for several years with other friends and we just love the low key, quieter, family feel of the area. Each of the other neighborhoods in OBX has its own draw but Duck has become our favorite. This house is perfectly located in that you can literally walk to the beach OR to downtown Duck in minutes. Wee Winks Market and Deli, Blue Point restaurant and the ABC store are all a half mile away or less! We also own a house at Lake Anna (VRBO.com/510981) and have managed it ourselves since 2013. Check out our many 5 star reviews!

What makes this property unique

Nice quiet street that dead ends at the ocean front so no through traffic, lovely pool, picnic and hot tub area. Five bedrooms are well laid out so that everyone has there space. 3 full bathrooms plus an outdoor shower.
