About this property
Secret garden retreat 3 minutes from the beach in the heart of Duck!
This magical spot offers a private courtyard garden, multiple spots for therelaxing, a mermaid fountain, and a dreamy outdoor shower, all within walking distance to the heart of Duck's 5-star restaurants and shopping! The beach and private access steps are only 3 houses away...Sunsets over the sound on the Duck boardwalk are within a short walk to the end of this street.
Perfect for solo retreats, couples get away or for introverts that do not want to stay in the larger homes with 60 of their family members! This is an ideal spot to start that book or finish that painting! It lends itself to being at peace and letting wordly cares drift out to sea. RELAX at this unique and tranquil getaway.
Bikes, beach chairs, beach cart, coolers, towels and boogie boards provided,just bring flip-flops!
This is the downstairs unit of my private home, so NO STEPS, yay, however one may hear foot or paw steps, but we are very respectful.
