Our stay was very pleasant
Our stay was very pleasant. The house is in a great location in Duck and the walk to the beach is not bad at all. The house was clean and well kept. We enjoyed the dock on the sound and seeing a lot of wildlife including deer, otters, and rabbits. The only thing lacking was some basic kitchenware including larger mixing bowls and a cutting board.

We were evacuated from Avon and were lucky enough to find this place in Duck
We were evacuated from Avon and were lucky enough to find this place in Duck. The home has beautiful natural light and incredible sunsets. The ocean was not swimmable and the beach could not be accessed during the peak high tides from the hurricane, but the sound was calm as could be. The dock made for a great alternative to the beach and the crabbing is incredible! It is also a short walk to the beach and manageable walk/short drive to all the shops in Duck.
We had a wonderful stay at the Mucky Duck
We had a wonderful stay at the Mucky Duck! The pier was our absolute favorite place! From morning coffee, to post beach and evening sunsets, the pier was the highlight! Our walk to the beach was lovely, along Oyster Catcher Lane and Skimmer Way, the Live Oak Trees were beautiful! Our daughters loved their retreat in the upstairs bedrooms, so spacious, with their own bathroom and amazing view! We would definitely love to return for another visit to the Mucky Duck!🦆
The place was great
The place was great! The only thing was that I couldn’t find a cutting board or salad bowl.
We loved Mucky Duck
We loved Mucky Duck! Beautiful water view of the sound, close to Duck restaurants and shops, and not too far from the beach. We were able to take advantage of Sanderling amenities. The place itself is adorable and super clean. Highly recommend!
Throughly enjoyed our stay at Mucky Duck
Throughly enjoyed our stay at Mucky Duck! The house is beautifully decorated and the furniture is perfect for relaxing and taking in the fantastic view. We loved the view from the upstairs king bedroom, almost felt like being in a treehouse overlooking the water. We found the house to be extremely clean, which we very much appreciated! While Duck is a high traffic area ,the landscaping at Mucky Duck makes it feel secluded. The location was perfect for our family, just north of Duck (past the heaviest traffic) with an easy trip to grocery stores in Corolla or a quick trip into Duck for the delicious restaurants and shopping. We highly recommend Cravings and Donutz On a Stick (delicious for those with Gluten allergies too) both were repeat stops for us. We loved Mucky Duck so much we’re looking at Fall dates for a quick getaway. Thanks for being a great host Natalie!
