We had a great week in this beautiful house! Everything we needed was included, down to spices and cooking oil. The host was very responsive and accommodating. The walk to the beach and into town was closer to 8-10 minutes. Having the pool up at the beach was really nice. The beach itself is somewhat narrow but we easily found space near the lifeguard. Would definitely stay here again!

Great Location

We had a great stay with family at the house. The location was perfect - a quick walk to either a beach or town, and we loved being close to the clubhouse for some pool time. The size and set up of the house was perfect for our extended family - everyone had space to be comfortable, but also congregate as a family.

Beautiful Home in Duck

This house was clean, modern, and perfectly located for a walk to the beach or a walk into town. The neighborhood pools were easily accessed and clean as well. We enjoyed our stay and look forward to the next one.

Summer Family beach vacation

A great accommodation in Duck, NC. Right near the pool for the little ones, not a long walk to the beach. Very convenient to restaurants and shopping. The owners were very responsive to the few concerns we had. I highly recommend this VRBO!

Excellent stay

Loved the house and location. Property Mgr was very responsive when I had questions. Nice that the house was so close to the community center pools and tennis courts; they should update their game room and playground - especially their swings.

Love this house!

We stayed with couple of families that we enjoy vacationing with. Location was great for a quick walk into town or the beach. The downstairs lounge area with games was the biggest hit! We loved it and spend a lot of time there. And the community center was a 1 minute walk, very convenient. Would recommend!

The location of this house is pretty perfect for walks or golf cart rides into Duck. The downstairs Tiki bar area was a fun spot for our family to Happy Hour and play games at night. I didn’t think we would use it that much but we were down there every night! Plenty of space in the house. Beds were comfy. Tons of beach items for our use. We really loved this house!

July 4th week

It was a beautiful home with a variety of things to do . The kitchen was so well prepared for cooking at home and everything was extremely clean. It was nice to have access to beach chairs, a nice grill, beach games and home games. The location is walking distance to shops and the board walk. We had a wonderful time. Owners were responsive and helpful.

Awesome Extended Family Reunion Site

We loved our special family reunion here celebrating our parents' anniversary and mom's milestone birthday. This was the PERFECT house to provide us with easy beach access, pool access (but not at the house so didn't have to worry about small children escaping and falling in), and Duck boardwalk access. We rented bicycles and spent the whole week just in Duck doing the shops, swimming, and beach stuff. Lots of space for hanging out, and our kids especially loved the covered outdoor hangout room w/ games and a tv & couch.

Loved this house and would definitely come back again. The location of the house is perfect, though our children definitely preferred riding their bikes to the beach rather than the walk. The layout of the house was fantastic for our family and we loved all the outside areas. Eating dinner outside on the deck in the shade was perfect. The beds were fairly comfortable and the house was clean for the most part. The floors could have used a scrubbing, but I appreciated everything else being very clean. The owner was a pleasure to work with. We were so very happy here for our week and will definitely be returning!

Amazing amenities and location

We’ve stayed at Duck before and knew this location was central to all we wanted but we did not know just how much comes with the house. The pools were amazing, especially the ocean side pool. The tennis courts were great, we also checked out ping ping and ice hockey in the community center game room. And then there is all the beach equipment you could need including 4 extra bikes to get around town and a beach wagon. We brought too much! Such a great property.

A fabulous home for our Duck vacation!

We LOVED Duck and 186 Schooner's Ridge was perfect for our family of 10. Grandkiddos camped out in bedroom w/ double bunks and queen bed. All 3 sets of adults had queen or king beds. The kitchen was fabulous and fully stocked. The table seated 10 and family room was large. We loved the hot tub and outdoor game room w/ picnic table and grill. The pictures are perfect. This home was clean with comfortable furnishing and close to the beach, boardwalk, and Duck donuts! We'd love to come back.

Perfect Beach Getaway for Families!

We had an amazing stay at Topped Off Duck! The house was extremely clean, well stocked, and had everything we needed for a comfortable and fun vacation. The layout was perfect for two families, with plenty of space to spread out and great common areas to relax and hang out together.The owners were fantastic—very responsive and friendly, which made the whole experience even better. We loved the location in Schooner Ridge, with access to great neighborhood amenities like the community pool, gym, and easy beach access. The beach itself was beautiful and just a short walk or bike ride away. We enjoyed biking into the town of Duck daily. We also rented a 6 person golf cart to help with beach gear and to drive up and down Duck to restaurants and shops. Highly recommend this home to anyone looking for a relaxing, well-maintained, and family-friendly spot in Duck.

Great house in Schooner Ridge!

My family loves vacationing in this neighborhood and Heather's house was just what we needed for a relaxing week away! The house is steps from the community center with an indoor/outdoor pool, playground and tennis courts. It's an easy walk to the private beach access and outdoor pool. They provide a wagon to get all of your gear to the beach or there is parking for neighborhood use only. Easy walk to food and shopping. Heather was also so gracious with my husband and me when we locked ourselves out despite the easy instructions for access to the house! Thanks for a great trip, Heather!
