Experience the nautical life when you stay at this cozy 3 bedroom beach cottage in Duck. The oceanside location means you'll be just a short walk to the beach access at the end of the street, with no major roads to cross. A bright and airy open-concept living area encourages quality time spent together. Prepare meals in the beautifully renovated kitchen with an eat-in dining area, or eat outside on the screened-in porch with an outdoor dining table. After a day at the beach, rinse off in theenclosed outside shower and then relax on the sun deck with cocktails and conversation.

Situated in the Bayberry Bluffs community in the heart of Duck, A Captain's Tale is within walking distance to the best shopping and dining in town, including The Waterfront Shops, The Blue Point, and Tommy's Natural Foods Market & Wine Shop.

    It was a very nice place, super close to the beach. The beach itself felt less busy than most and we really enjoyed that. House was clean and inviting.

    We really enjoyed our stay at this beach cottage. The kitchen was impressively well equipped — it had everything we could possibly need, and all the appliances were high quality (including the gas bbq). The screened-in porch was a great spot to relax, and the location was ideal: a quiet road for peace and privacy, but just a short walk to the shops in Duck and an even shorter walk to a quiet beach access. It’s a comfortable, thoughtfully set-up place that made for an enjoyable, relaxing stay.

    We loved our stay! The beds were comfortable, loved the screened porch and well appointed kitchen. It was a short walk both to the beach and to the town of Duck. Perfect location.

    Perfect for a small group. Worked great for the wife and I. Easily walkable to the beach. Duck restaurants nearby. Well stocked kitchen. Nice BBQ grill. Recently renovated and very clean. Giant big screen TV in the living room was a plus. Probably will stay again!

    A Captain’s Tale was a fantastic place to stay for our family - top to bottom. The property looked like the photos and was even better. Every detail of the house seemed so well planned and was only minutes from either the beach or grabbing ice cream in town! Highly recommend!

    Our first stay in Duck was wonderful. This house was very clean, has a well-stocked kitchen, and is tastefully updated. We enjoyed eating breakfast out on the screened in porch listening to the ocean waves. The master bedroom mattress was very comfortable as well. We will definitely consider this house again if we come back to Duck.

    Our rental a Captains Tale was the best rental we have stayed in. The place was very clean. They thought of everything you might need. The reservation process was easy. We will definitely be staying there again.
