About this house rental

We love our beach cottage and know you will, too. "Sounds Good" is a custom-built 3,320 sq. ft. three-level home loaded with great amenities. Our cottage has three master suites because privacy matters, a private pool and hot tub, and a well-equipped kitchen with a fully stocked guest pantry. There is a sports lounge on the ground level with a wet bar, billiards, and a large flat-screen TV for watching your favorite movies or for quality gaming. Call us crazy, but we still have cable TV throughout the cottage, and the main TVs also stream. Sounds Good is our second home, and we visit it often, so we only open our cottage to guests for a very short season, simply because we miss it too much when we're gone. One important note: though Sounds Good is in Duck, we are passionate about the wild Banker horses in Corolla, just 8 miles north. When you stay with us, $50 from your week's rental is gladly donated to the Corolla Wild Horse Fund to help these wild horses continue to thrive. Okay, back to cottage info... Our five-bedroom, five and 1/2-bath home is super clean. We are committed to keeping this level of quality for our guests (and ourselves). We aim to exceed your expectations because your vacation and investment are important. At the same time, we INSIST that our guests are respectful and gentle on our home. Sounds Good is a peaceful, laid-back place to vacation. We do not host parties and will not tolerate rowdy behavior; that's just not what we are about. We are about- is being readily available to you before and during your stay. We enjoy getting to know our guests and respond quickly to any need or question about the cottage or visiting the Outer Banks. Consider us your text-able concierge! We offer a well-stocked guest pantry; please see the photo in our gallery. Please bring your own linens and towels, or they can be easily rented from a company right down the street and conveniently delivered to the cottage. Sounds Good is in one of Duck's most charming communities, Carolina Dunes, and is near the ocean, only one walkable block to the beach access, and the Currituck sound is just 50 yards away from the front door. Enjoy the Currituck sound and sunset views from the front balcony. You'll be near all the things that make for a perfect family vacation: whether it's strolling along the Currituck sound walking trail, directly in front of the cottage, or wandering through the sound front shops (1.8 miles south - a walk or bike ride away), or dining at one of the many nearby restaurants, or visiting the Duck town park for an evening concert, you won't have to travel far or necessarily by car. Back at the cottage, relax on one of the spacious decks or enjoy a good book under the second-floor covered deck, or chill in the hammock swing. The fenced backyard offers mature live oaks and is extremely private. Cool off in the backyard pool or go kayaking using our two kayaks. Launching the kayaks from the community dock is just a block and a half south. We've got the gear: wheel dollies, paddles, and life vests. Game night is always fun, and our home has plenty of board game choices. Downstairs, the sports lounge has two TVs, one at the wet bar and the main flat-screen TV. There's an apartment-size dishwasher, microwave, full-size stainless refrigerator, and a high-quality 9' pool table. If you're looking for location, fun, relaxation, and comfort, Sounds Good has it all because it's not a busy rental; it's our home! House Gear: Four beach bikes, six beach chairs, various floats, two beach umbrellas, DVDs, books, a high-chair, crib, booster chair, changing table, pack n' play, all expected deck furniture, hammock swing, gas grill, Blackstone griddle, and beach buggy to cart your gear to the beach, which is only a 5-minute walk. Enjoy your vacation wherever you stay, but we hope it will be with us! Cheers! Tom & Kelly

We have vacationed in Duck for years, but this was our first time staying at this house, and it won't be the last! Everything was above and beyond expectations. The house was very clean and spacious, and the amenities top-notch. The hosts were so very helpful and kind! Our family had a wonderful time, and we can't wait for next summer!

Description of property and location were spot on! This home accommodated 8 of us very easily and nicely. They have included everything you can imagine for your stay and clearly share what you need to bring, which is minimal. Communication with owners is easy and they are all about ensuring you make wonderful memories. Highly recommend!!

Sounds Good was the perfect home for our family! Kelly and Tom were attentive, communicative, caring and helpful! The home was very clean, comfortable and had so many amenities and extras! We loved the pool and hot tub. They provide four bikes that we really appreciated. We rode them every day to the beach, and we also rode them into town. We played the board games almost every night. Another extra that we found very helpful is the full supply of toilet paper, paper towels, tissues, hand soaps, laundry detergent, ziplock baggies, foil, plastic wrap and more. Also provided was coffee, filters, a spice rack and condiments! Thank you Kelly and Tom! We hope to come back next year!

We had a great week in Duck at Sounds Good. The house is well equipped and well maintained. Communications with Kelly were great she was super helpful and responsive. We spent a lot of time at the beach and then retiring to the pool for the afternoon. Cooking dinner for the family was easy in the well equipped kitchen. Loved playing all of the games after dinner. All of the bed rooms were comfortable. We tended to hang out upstairs in the living room after dinner planning games but the wet bar/pool table downstairs looked very appealing we just ran out of time to take advantage. We were there for the fourth of July week so the traffic was a bit of a challenge especially through Duck but the house its self was fabulous and the Beach in Duck is second to none.

This home is fantastic! The owner is a fabulous communicator who also provides tons of tips and ideas for the area! She feels like a friend by the end of your stay (or even before you get there!). They obviously love their home and do everything they can for their guests to love it as much - which we did! The location is great - across the street to the Sound with great pier access, for watching incredible sunsets nightly. The town of Duck with tons of restaurants and shops is very close, which is convenient, and the beach is fabulous, especially if you love to boogey board and/or body surf. We kayaked on the Sound on the calmer days, which was great - and really cool because you can be out on the Sound hundreds of feet into it, and still stand, which we've never experienced. There is nothing that you will want for at the house - absolutely everything you think you might need, they have, from every kitchen amenity, TONS of extras for spices, coffee, condiments, paper plates, baggies - to even more with bikes, kayaks, pool and beach floats, chairs, and more. That helps so much with not having to pack all that for just a week stay OR having to go out and buy all the little things that add up, for a week stay. I loved also that there were labels for almost everything, so you always knew where to find things, and even easier, where to return things. We had 2 families, with kids from 2 - 13, and all of us loved the entire week and felt at home in their home.
