Loved everything about this home. It’s located in a great place not far from restaurants, ice cream and the beach. The private swimming pool was a plus. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you could need. The owner also has extra beach chairs, umbrellas and a wagon. Beach toys for kids. Beach towels.

Great location. House was spacious and comfortable. Beach accessories (cart, chairs, umbrella, and toys) saved us time and money.

Family vacay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Loved this property so much. With the three levels it gave us privacy, especially the lower level which is essentially a complete apartment with its own kitchen, living area etc.... Pool was super nice, too!

Exceeded Expectations!

The Fuzzy Duck was perfect for our family and exceeded our expectations. We especially loved the pool and covered deck. The beds and furniture were very comfortable and good quality. We also appreciated that the pool was fenced and separate from the house. Perfect if you have a toddler. We highly recommend and will be back!

Perfect place to rest!

My family does this trip every year, and every year we pick a new place to stay. We are coming from CA and TN, and we want a place that allows us to enjoy the beach easily, but to also enjoy each other. This place was just that! We were within walking distance to the beach, but also the house itself was perfect for nights where we just wanted to stay in and cook and play games. The neighborhood was quiet and in a great location to just about everything!!

Perfect House

Rebecca’s house was perfect for our family of 11. The house was clean, fully stocked with all of the essentials. We had plenty of beach chairs, toys, kitchenware, etc. The pool was so fun for the kids to have after the beach. Her small touches didn’t go unnoticed, as she provided extra gifts for the kids! We loved our stay!

Fun girls weekend!

Had a lovely stay at this property. The house was clean and exactly as described. The location was perfect! Walkable to beach and restaurants/coffee shops. I do wish we had been given a few extra trash bags. I understand buying our own paper products, but having to buy a full thing of trash bags for a 3 day trip was a little inconvenient.

Hailey, Thank you so much for the 5 star review! So glad you enjoyed your stay at Fuzzy Duck. We are sorry that you felt 12 small bags and 2- 30 gallon bags were not enough for your stay. We do let guests know that we provide a starter supplies. Sometimes this starter supply carries guests through 3 days. We do hope you will come back again soon!

Perfect Family Beach House

This house was perfect for our family!! The pool, the location to the beach, amount of parking spaces (huge deal for our family), the layout, balconies and the King beds!! We grilled most nights and also walked to blue mountain creamery a few times. So many reasons to book this property!!! Our only recommendation would be to have more lighting by the pool for evening swims. Overall a 10 out of 10. We will definitely rent this house again!! Thanks for a great vacation!

Great home with a pool and with a short walk to the beach!

We loved the Fuzzy Duck! The pool was amazing and being so close to the beach was a plus. Blue mountain creamery was a favorite as well. Highly recommend this property. The host is easy to communicate with and responds quickly! The home is clean and set up perfectly. Just remember toilet paper and garbage bags are supplied to get your vacation started and you’ll probably have to purchase more! There was only one roll of toilet paper per bathroom.

10 out of 10!@

We have a family vacation on 30A every year with our family, 4 couples, a 19 year old and a 9 month old (first trip!!). This has been the most impressive location we have stayed at. Every bedroom having its own bathroom to the amenities and thoughtful touches of having a welcome basket of snacks and other items to get us through the first morning. I always dread the "don't use our wash cloths and towels for make up removal" notes, but the hosts at Fuzzy Duck thought to include black wash cloths to cover this issue, along with little extras in the bathroom to make our stay more enjoyable. The house is sizeable and I actually think the rooms are larger than the pictures depict. We had plenty of room for all of us to hang out and eat at the spacious table for a family dinner. Fuzzy Duck was a great location to the beach, restaurants and shops, our younger guests walked most everywhere or rode the bikes provided. Job well done to the hosts and management of Fuzzy Duck, we would love to come back!
