About this property
6th House From Private Beach Access! Steps to Duck Town! 3 Bed, 2 Bath.
Friday to Friday. ONE WEEK AVAILABLE JUNE 26 TO JULY 3.
GREAT LOCATION. Quiet neighborhood that gives you the best of all worlds. It is a three-minute walk to the beach and a seven-minute walk to the heart of Duck. Leave the car parked and stroll anywhere including to restaurants, bakeries, ice cream shops, pizza places, the sweet shop, water sport rentals, bike rentals/paths, groceries, clothing shops, yoga, art stores, the book store, unique novelty and gift shops, the Duck boardwalk, the Sound, and THE OCEAN/BEACH. The park/playground and the kayak and paddle board ramp on the sound side is very close too!
Spend a day at the beach and enjoy ocean breezes from the deck at night. Watch beautiful sunrises over the ocean in the morning and stroll down to the sound front for dinner and take in a spectacular sunset.
ABOUT THE HOME: clean, updated beach home that sleeps 6 very comfortably. New in 2022: floors, TV, decking, and outdoor shower.
LAYOUT: Master Bedroom (upstairs); king-sized bed, ensuite bathroom, and sliding doors that open onto a sun deck.
Bedroom 2 (entry level, north facing): two comfy, full beds with a window to the quiet backyard.
Bedroom 3 (entry level, south facing): one comfy queen bed and a window for great daylight.
The second full bathroom is also on the entry level and is in the hallway outside these bedrooms.
NOTE: We do NOT supply bed or bath linens. Many OBX vacationers choose to rent these items from a beach rental company who delivers and picks-up the linens.
The living area has a full wall of sliding glass doors that exit onto the wrap-around deck. Lounge on the Adirondack chairs as you listen to the ocean waves. When you are ready for a meal, use the charcoal grill, or the completely updated kitchen to prepare something yummy. Eat in the sunny dining area or perhaps on the screened-in porch that sits off the elevated kitchen. And for the times when you don't feel like cooking, you can walk in minutes to any number of local restaurants or call for delivery.
Headed to the beach? Grab the beach chairs, drink cooler, and beach umbrella from the utility room and take a 3-minute stroll to the Christopher Drive private beach entry.
The house also has a large yard, basketball hoop, ring & hook game, a hammock, and plenty of space for kids (or adults) to play in a delightful neighborhood. And, when you are back indoors, you can download TV or a movie on one of two flat screen, smart TVs; listen to music from the sound bar; connect to the WiFi; play cards or board games; read; and relax!

Our family loves loves loves the Blue Box! Always exactly what we need, super clean, close to town, close to beach and the perfect place to relax. Will definitely be staying here again!
This was our third time at The Blue Box. We just love it! My kids love how close it is to the beach to boogie board and the outdoor shower to rinse off. The screened in porch is great It’s close to the boardwalk. Our host is responsive and the house is super clean! Definitely recommend!
We loved our stay at the Blue Box. It is a short walk to the ocean with convenient beach access.It is near several ice cream shops, great restaurants (our Favorite is SunSet Grille) and local gift shops.
Our family really enjoyed staying at the Blue Box. Our host, Bernadette, was easy to reach and gave us great info. We loved the location - so close to both the beach and town. The house has plenty of room for a family of 6 and there were several decks for everyone to hang out and socialize. The kitchen is well stocked for cooking and entertaining. The outside shower is a bonus!! We loved everything about this house and look forward to our next visit.

We had a wonderful stay and couldn’t have been happier with this property. The home was clean, comfortable, and very family-friendly, with plenty of space for everyone to relax and enjoy our vacation.One of our favorite things was the location. The short walk to the beach was incredibly convenient, and we loved that it was a quieter stretch of shoreline where we could enjoy the ocean without the crowds. It was the perfect spot for morning walks, beach days, and watching the sunset.The home was well-equipped, exactly as described, and made for a stress-free and enjoyable stay. The host was great to work with, and everything from check-in to check-out was easy.We made some wonderful family memories here and would gladly stay again the next time we’re in the Outer Banks. Highly recommend!
We look forward to staying the Blue Box every year. It's our favorite vacation!! The house is always clean, kitchen is stocked with anything you need, and the location is perfect. We couldn't ask for a better host either.
We once again had an amazing time at the Blue Box! We walked to the beach each day, to dinner each night, and shopping. Loved hearing the waves while we ate on the screened porch and hung out on the deck!
I was really impressed with the cleanliness of this house. Everything from the kitchen, bathrooms, showers to the yard outside. This property is well taken care of and we had a comfortable stay.
Really enjoyed the location jn the heart of Duck a few houses away from the beach. Outdoor shower and screened eating room were also super nice. It worked well for our family week.
The Blue Box was very clean and very well maintained. It had everything we needed. Outdoor shower is super and the A/C was cold during a major heat wave. Great location for the teens to walk into the town for shopping and treats!
Our second stay at this great house. We love the proximity to the beach and downtown. We love the screened in porch for family meals and games. Lots of space to spread out. The TV in the evening was great for movie nights. There are lots of sand toys and beach chairs. We’d definitely stay again!
We had a great stay in NC. Surf was rough and a couple of rainy days but the house made it easy to do lots of other things with kids. We had a great time!
Love love love this house and Duck! We've stayed at this home multiple times over the years and it never disappoints. Owner is always so kind and accommodating, it is so close to the beach and Duck, always clean and plenty of chairs/tents/toys to use. Can't say enough, and we'll definitely be back yet again!
Very clean, comfortable beds, well stocked kitchen, lovely yard and great location! Perfect for the 3 of us. We absolutely loved the screened in porch off the kitchen! Very easy walk to beach and Town of Duck.
This was my second time staying at this house, and a third one is to come in September! I LOVE everything about this home. The location, the cleanliness, spaciousness, the homeowner's responsiveness, etc. 10/10.
This is our third time staying at the Blue Box, and it was just as fantastic as the previous two times. Location can't be beat, cleanliness is top notch and amenities were spot on! This house has everything you need in order to have a wonderful time at the beach. And, the hosts are just superb! Our family expects to book it again and again! Thank you for such a wonderful time!
