Everything was great, very clean, cozy. You can see the ocean view from upstair. Just remember that you should bring your own dish washing liquid, soap, and trash bag, and bleach if you ever want to use them.
Our stay at Sitting Duck was awesome. The house is amazing. Everything is incredibly well thought out. The interior was freshly painted, and the living spaces had brand new furnishings, and new carpet. The kitchen is extremely well appointed with anything you can think of to cook with. We did cook in one night - got the seafood boil at Dockside in Duck - don't come here without trying it. The locatiopn of the house is perfect, it's less than a 5 minute walk to the beach, and less than a 5 minute drive to most everything in Duck (great restaurants and shops). The design of the house is easy to live in - a garage on ground level, all the sleeping areas on the first level, and the great room dining and kitchen on the second level with a wrap around deck with a view of the ocean and sunrise on one side and the sunset on the other. The owners clearly care about this property and it shows - including a phone call on our first day to see if everything was ok - we will be back!

Have visited Duck and OBX before and prefer the quiet area of Duck . Was a bit windy but still enjoyable . House a little further to beach than anticipated but that was ok due to weather . Most furnishing and decor is a bit outdated and all beds very uncomfortable but was still very clean
