New in our program, this home has many great reviews from past guests.

Hunting for the perfect Hatteras Island vacation cottage Set your sights on the newly renovated canal front Duckin Around. With a near-perfect canal-front location in mid-Avon, DNA has a small boat dock and a bulkheaded waterfront that is ideal for small boats, kayaks, SUPs, fishing, and crabbing. DNA has great concrete parking, two carports, an outside shower, and a park grill. This single story cedar shake cottage has a nicely furnished sundeck that overlooks the canal out back. Supervising kids in the yard or on the water is a bonus. The new vinyl plank flooring is gorgeous and easy to clean and maintain. The living area is well furnished and anchored by a 55” Smart TV and electric fireplace. The kitchen has all-new stainless appliances, a new Keurig coffee machine, and a dining table. The good-size king main bedroom offers a good neighborhood view, a Smart TV, and a full bath with a tub/shower. Bedroom two has one double-size bunk and a flat-screen TV. The hall bath has a tub/shower and is adjacent to the stack washer/dryer nook. Bedroom three has one double-size bunk and a flat-screen TV.

Bring your bikes because Avon has a superb village pedestrian/bike path that leads to some great restaurants and shopping. Duckin Around is so clean and comfortable that you will be flying back for a visit sooner than you think. Not to mention, the local DQ is only a five-minute walk, and the beach is just a ten-minute walk from your front door so you will have fun days of sweet treats and sandy toes at your fingertips!

    Excellent location for a dog friendly vacation. Easy walk to nearby coffee shops and restaurants. House was clean and in good condition. Only deducted a point because the master bedroom/bathroom appears to be an addition to the home as there is a slight tilt to that whole area. That didn't matter to us, but it might to some so I thought I should point it out.

    Duckin Around was a great family vacation in a nice quiet neighborhood. The location on the canal with a small dock provided for paddle boarding out to the open sound for nightly sunsets. The location is also great for a quick walk to the beach or nearby ramps for vehicle beach access (which is what we did each day). The house is well maintained by the owner who obviously takes great care of the exterior ( really nice) and interior of the home. Outside there is ample parking with two covered spots which was great for the jeep and to house all of our beach boards, sea kayak etc. Inside the kitchen is well equipped with pots and pans for daily cooking and lots of puzzles to keep everyone busy. Finally, the house AC worked fantastic on the extremely hot and humid days we were there. I would definitely recommend this home for an OBX vacation.

    We loved this property it fit our family of 4 very well. It was nice being on the water. We enjoyed being able to rinse off in the outdoor shower after being at the beach. The parking underneath was nice and gave us a place to keep our kayaks. The corn hole boards were nice in the evenings after dinner. The property could have been cleaned a little better. The ceiling fan had about 2 inches of dust. Since it’s a pet friendly property it’s also important to clean under the beds. Lots of pet hair in corners and underneath things. The property could use some paint and a new kitchen table. Other than that, it was a great place!

    We’ve stayed at many houses in Avon over the years and the was one of our favorites for a couple or small family. House is updated and cozy, with a nice spot on the canal out to the sound.
