Perfect place to stay in Duck. Location can’t be beat - oceanfront with the sound of the ocean beyond the back decks and only a few short steps to the sand. Walkable to the center of Duck Village. The home was immaculately clean and furnished with everything we could possibly need. We received a call from the owners shortly after check in to make sure everything went smoothly. We asked for recommendations for restaurants and they were spot on! We felt comfortable and completely at home during our relaxing week at the Sugar Shack. Can’t wait to return.

This was our second stay at the property. Location right on the beach can't be beat and the house has everything you need. We had our two kids with us and had a fantastic time

I can't express how nice our stay was here. Beach. Beach. Beach. The home itself was incredibly clean and had everything we needed to eat in most days. Relax on the decks. The beds are great. Bathrooms great. Even the outside shower was clean. The owners considered everything you would need to enjoy time away from home. Who wants to eat out in a stuffy restaurant when you have all you need and that view? BTW Harris Teeter always has excellent fresh food to make eating in simple. It's my 3rd trip here, and I'll keep coming back. It gets better year after year. The owners are always looking for ways to improve the property. Thank you for sharing your amazing beach front home with us.

This was the perfect spot for our family! Right on the beach, well-stocked, lots of amenities including some unexpected (and much appreciated) extra goodies! Bud & Janice are very friendly and responsive. It was a no-brainer to book again for next year.

We love this location! We have stayed here for a number of years. The ocean view is amazing with easy access to town for eating and shopping. We enjoy everything this location has to offer. Thank you!

Our family had a wonderful time exploring the area and enjoying the sound of the ocean!

This property has all you need and more than you’d expect in a rental, particularly in the kitchen, which is a huge time saver and relief as a family with a young child. The location next to the beach can’t be beaten, and the ocean views made up for the bad weather we unfortunately had for our stay. The owners are personable and clearly care deeply about their property and guests.

Better than advertised! Exceptionally well-stocked, clean, and affordable! Wonderful communication with the owners. The absolute best home in which we ever stayed!!! Will wholeheartedly recommend to friends!

Excellent house/duplex layout, exquisitely decorated and kitchen accents made it so nice and the walkway to the beach and ocean sounds made it a fantastic and relaxing stay!

Beautiful property that is obviously a treasured home with all the features. Clean , Well stocked , and views of the ocean from both levels. We had a hard time leaving for our adventures as we were just as happy staying home. Lovely Janice was so concerned with us getting a nice dinner after plane delayed arrival - she and Bud brainstormed nearby restaurants with descriptions for us. They also sent a list of “must see attractions”. Bud & Janice, thank you for sharing your home with us!

The house was right next to the beach. There are 3 decks. The house was spotless and was stocked with everything you could think of. It was cozy and comfortable. There were no problems whatsoever. We walked the beach, took nature hikes, went to the Wright Bros museum, walked the Duck boardwalk and ate at casual restaurants with great food. I highly recommend this place. Its a winner.

We LOVED our week long stay at Bud & Janice's Sugar Shack! It was exactly what our family of 4 needed! A perfect getaway in Duck! You can't get a better location. So scenic and so peaceful. And the beach is RIGHT THERE! The house exceeded my own high cleanliness standards. It was super clean. It felt like a home rather than a rental, which we really loved. Kitchen is fully stocked. Everything you could possibly need is there. Communication with Bud and Janice, from the start to the end, was wonderful. Our hosts even created a lovely basket of treats for our girls and our family which was a very sweet, kind and special touch! This was our first time to Duck and we will definitely come back! Thank you so much Janice and Bud :-)

The place was perfect , right on the beach, clean, quiet, access to everything. The Sugar eShack was absolutely beautiful, it gave u the feeling of HOME right away. Couldn’t have asked for more. The owners were helpful and responsive if we had a question and the area was amazing. Great people everywhere we visited. 👍👍👍👍👍

A lovely ocean view and a quiet getaway. We so much enjoy time at the beach and this is a perfect place to do it.

We loved everything about The Sugar Shack! Cozy and clean place with spectacular ocean views. Whether you just want to sit and enjoy the ocean or do some sight seeing this is the perfect place to do that! It was apparent that Bud and Janice want their guests to feel at home with all the amenities and special touches; not to mention quick to respond with any questions we had! Thanks for providing a much needed get away!

Everything about this condo just what we needed. Easy access to beach, amazing views for sunsets, and condo is well stocked and clean. It is clear pride is taken in caring for this property.

It was a perfect house and location for our family of 4. We really enjoyed the stay and the views from the house. Also appreciate the quick responses from Bud and Janice.

This was perfect. Lovely neighborhood, close to town and right on the beach. The property owners were so helpful and kind, and the home was spotless and comfortable. I had everything I needed or wanted for the week.

Quiet, cozy, clean oceanfront condo. Loved the space, enjoyed the view. Slept to the sound of the waves crashing along the shore. Perfect for an off season trip to Duck.

We love this property, so well maintained and thoughtfully appointed. Wonderful ocean views and very restful this time of year.

Amazing location for our off season OBX trip. Steps from the beach and gorgeous view from the upper floor. Townhouse was clean, cozy, and well equipped. Owners were incredibly responsive and wow it’s just so much better to rent from an owner and not a rental company. Would love to stay here again!

This place was situated right on the beach, which was great for long walks and listening to the waves. It was also convenient to walk or bike to the town of Duck. Inside, the property was cozy and very well equipped, with great wifi. The view from the primary bedroom was fantastic.

Well equipped vacation rental with many extra details! Do not hesitate to book this property! Wake to morning sunrise, oceanfront, short walk/bike ride into Duck.

This home is perfect for a small family looking for all the benefits of a larger home in a smaller package. The homeowners keep this property in perfect working order and make updates/upgrades every year. The property is well appointed having all the amenities you need for the beach. You can see the love and attention the owner’s give to this home that you will NEVER get renting from one of the larger rental companies. This is the third week that we have rented this home and we will be back again next year!

Loved the entire experience!

Awesome location. Comfortable space. Friendly owners. We continue to have great experiences at the Sugar Shack.

Great location and wonderful views

Wonderful! We’ll be back

Fantastic week in Duck! Great accommodations, location, and amenities. See you next summer!

We have stayed at the Sugar Shack for 10 seasons - we just love it! The 2 bed-2 bath is perfect for our family of 4. The house is always clean and updated. The owners are awesome to work with. The proximity to the beach is unbeatable; and the location of Duck is perfect for our early morning walks. All in all, this place is hard to beat for a small family.

As new parents with a baby, this townhome was both extremely well appointed with all the amenities you need and an excellent location just steps from the beach that allowed us to easily enjoy our trip and get our little one in for naps as needed. As someone who loves to cook, I was particularly impressed by how well stocked the kitchen was with most of the appliances and tools that you could need. I typically bring my own tools as that isn’t usually the case. It was also cozy without feeling dated as some beach houses can be. We hope to come again! :)
