Duck, North Carolina
Welcome to Duck NC and our home away from home. We purchased this home in May 2018 and since have welcomed many families to enjoy a vacation on the OBX. During peak season the property is managed by Beach Realty and can be found on their website as property D2905. During the off season we manage it ourselves through VRBO. The entire house has been updated and renovated to perfection, from the upgraded kitchen to the professionally hand selected decor you will be completely spoiled during your time away! Some of the fabulous upgrades not seen at many other properties include a crow’s nest/ocean watch area with TV and seating, refrigerated storage drawers in the kitchen island, a wine cooler in the kitchen/living room area and upgraded light fixtures throughout. This kitchen is the PERFECT gathering space for creating culinary masterpieces and enjoying quality time together; upgraded stainless steel appliances, custom glass tile back splash, antique pendant lighting, gigantic island w/seating for five, and flawless quartz counter tops set this home apart from all the rest. The great room space showcases a custom-built entertainment center with a huge flat screen TV for everyone to watch a movie or favorite sporting event. The King Master bedroom is located on the top level w/private en-suite bath including double sinks with granite counters and the GIGANTIC walk-in shower features dual shower heads and custom tile work. The Mid-Level layout includes new flooring in 2022, two Queen Master Bedrooms w/TV's, and a bedroom w/Queen and Twin which shares the Full Hall Bathroom. This level also offers access to the spacious exterior covered decks, an outdoor swing, and a hammock to enjoy the sweet ocean breezes. All rooms are tastefully decorated and feature updated bedding and furniture, the perfect place to rest after an action packed day of fun. **BONUS** Additional sitting area with a separate TV for the kids to enjoy their gaming systems, movies, or simply relax and unwind. The ground level is super functional and accommodating as well, the perfect oasis for the kiddos with double bunk bed sets w/TV. You will also find the Rec Room with a wet bar, full-size refrigerator, and stand alone ice so you won't have to climb up and down stairs for refreshments. Laundry is on this level with new LG stack-able washer and dryer and access to the pool area! There is a hot tub available year round and a huge outdoor pool open mid May through mid October. A gas grill on the upper deck will help you make the most delicious meals and offer up a game of corn hole or mega Jenga to top off the best day ever. There is a keyless entry for guest convenience. This is the perfect spot for your next trip to the Outer Banks, we fell in love instantly and you will too! Don't wait and book today at "Bright Dreams Ahead", the sweetness is waiting for you! Ocean Crest is a highly regarded subdivision on the South end of Duck, well maintained with permitted parking at the ocean access (a 4 minute walk from the home), tennis court, community pool and clubhouse.

Our stay was wonderful but went by too fast. The house was perfect for our family who were there for a wedding.
The place was very clean and a great location.
The house was just as advertised and very clean. There were so many extras in the house including a pack n play which we needed for the baby, beach chairs, toys, wagon, etc. The pool and hot tub were great. The location was wonderful and the beach was easy to access and quiet. The owner was very helpful. We had one issue (out of the owners control) that was immediately attended to. Thanks for the great stay.
Perfect house with lots of room! Loved the hot tub and there were so many toys. On a quaint street just a short walk to the beach. Perfect little neighborhood for little kids.
We were here for a girls trip and every single one of us commented on how pristine and cozy the house was. It has every accommodation accounted for plus more. It was clean upon arrival and Christi was wonderful with quick communication and prep prior to arriving. The games, cornhole, pool, hottub, and beach chairs are a major plus. We did go through a learning curve on how to use the kitchen sink (note: it’s tap-touch censored) but not an issue at all. I look forward to coming back. Thank you for sharing your home with us.
Overall a great stay! There were some minor issues: check in time changed last minute after flights and travel were already underway, the key code we were given did not work for the door (luckily my family had waited for the cleaning crew to finish and they gave us the correct code number), had issues with some of the batteries to the TV being dead/dying, the upstairs freezer gets off axel and doesn’t close fully sometimes (keep an eye out for this). The location is perfect - Close enough to things, yet gives a nice secluded feeling. The house is so big and cleanly and each room has super cute decor. This home truly does have a little bit of everything for everyone! Would recommend this house to others.
Loved this house! Very clean and spacious. Kitchen was extremely well appointed with quality kitchen wear. Location was close to both beach and Duck. This house has everything you need for a fabulous vacation. Highly recommend!
Great place to stay with family and friends! The house was clean, updated, and overall awesome for our two families! Excellent location - short walk to beach and quick bike ride to town! Christi was a great host! Thank you!!
Really enjoyed the stay, thanks!
This house was just perfect for our trip. We brought in our best friends from Oklahoma and showed them what the Outer Banks was all about. Bright Dreams was the perfect fit from the decor to the spacious interior and the pool and hot tub outside. The basketball court out front was another huge hit with the four boys between our two families! Hands down it was just a beautiful and relaxing space for us to spend time together. Christi was so good at answering all of our questions and making the check in/out process as seamless as possible. Highly recommend this home to anyone looking for a beautiful stay in Duck!
The house was very nice. It was spacious, clean, comfortable and only a short walk to the beach in a nice quiet neighborhood.
This house has everything you could need for a wonderful beach stay! We had 2 families, including 3 children on this trip and everyone had a blast. There was plenty of space and it was fully stocked! A very short walk to the beach and we even enjoyed a nice walk down to the boardwalk one morning! The great weather helped as well :). We will definitely return!
I have been coming to different areas of OBX for 20 years and this is the first house in about 7or 8 to actually look like the photos. Well equipped in the kitchen. Pool area was clean and had plenty of chairs and pool floats. Available bikes and beach stuff. Would highly recommend. Owner was easy to work with and very accommodating. Thanks for a great start to our vacation!
This place was absolutely amazing. The location was minutes from the beach. The pool was great and it was so close to the town with little shops we rode out bikes! It had everything we needed and more. Will definitely be back
My husband and my parents stayed here the first week of May to escape the (still chilly) weather in PA and we had a wonderful time. Any time I had a question, Christi answered me promptly and was very kind! The house was very clean when we arrived as well which we appreciated. We loved riding the 2 adult beach bikes that came with the house and they supply anything you could need. The beach is literally a 2 minute walk from the house and the neighborhood is really nice. We enjoyed the beach and finding all of the ghost crabs. Hopefully, we can make it back down again someday!
We had a wonderful visit! We love to cook our own meals and the kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. The living space was beautiful but cozy, and everyone slept great. We loved going down to the beach and taking the beach toys that were provided!
This was a beautiful home with all of the amenities, close to beach, shopping and restaurants- we enjoyed our stay-
