About the host

Hosted by Darcie Marinchek

Host profile image
We are a family of four with a deep love for travel and the unforgettable memories it creates. For us, the coast is all about connection and simplicity — where life slows down, the sunsets are endless, and every day brings a new adventure.

Whether it’s kayaking through the canals, paddle boarding at sunrise, casting a line right off the dock, or spending the day at the beach just minutes away, we love the mix of relaxation and adventure that the Outer Banks offers. Evenings are best spent unwinding on the deck, watching the boats go by, and soaking in the peaceful surroundings.

This home in the Outer Banks has been in the family for more than 30 years, we know it is something special and decided to share so others can make memories. Located in a quiet, gated community with water access right out the back door, it offers everything we love — boating, fishing, and laid-back coastal living, all while being just a short drive to the beach, restaurants, and local attractions.

We are thrilled to share our home with you and hope you create lasting memories here — whether that’s out on the water, at the beach, or simply enjoying time together.

Darcie and Bruce

Why they chose this property

This home has been in our family for over 30 years, making it a place filled with special memories and traditions. We’ve always loved coming here for the peaceful, laid-back setting and the easy access to the water right out the back door.

The neighborhood is quiet and tucked away in a gated community, which makes it feel relaxing and private — yet you’re still just minutes from the beach, restaurants, and everything the Outer Banks has to offer.

For us, it’s the perfect balance of calm, coastal living and convenience, and we’re excited to share it with you.

What makes this property unique

Welcome to Bluewater Retreat, where elevated coastal living meets effortless convenience. Set on a peaceful canal in a private, gated community, our home offers a true waterfront experience — with direct access to the water right from your backyard.

What truly sets this property apart is the lifestyle it offers. From your private dock, you can launch a kayak or paddle board at sunrise, spend the day boating or fishing, and unwind in the evening with stunning sunset views over the canal. We’ve thoughtfully equipped the home with water gear so you can fully enjoy the experience without the hassle of rentals.

Inside and out, the home is designed for gathering and relaxing, with multiple outdoor spaces to take in the views, enjoy the coastal breeze, and spend quality time together. Despite the peaceful, tucked-away setting, you’re just minutes from the beach, top restaurants, and local attractions — giving you the perfect balance of privacy and access.

Bluewater Retreat isn’t just a place to stay — it’s a place to experience the Outer Banks in a way that feels both effortless and unforgettable.
