À propos de cet hébergement

Sound front Sunsets from Dock, Pool, Porch & all rooms. Private Beach access!

Surround Sound is the only name that makes sense once you walk in the front door of this unique home. We have sound and canal views from every room. A highlight is watching the dazzling sunset while crabbing and fishing from the 100 ft. private dock. Or watching the sun or a full moon reflect off of the water like diamonds from the comfort of bed or the couch! Custom pool (closed from November to May) and swim spa (heated at your request for a heat fee typically 4-5 hours a day available rear round). We even have 2 rentable single person kayaks and life vest! This wooded, waterfront, private home is a 20 minute peaceful walk to the OBX beaches. We have a parking permit to the "homeowner's only" beach access with bathrooms and showers (7 min drive).

If the beach and the sound are not enough, we are a bike ride or 5 minute car ride to Duck's boardwalk shopping, restaurants, concerts and other activities. My kids love to bike for a snow cone or Duck Donuts. The area is bike friendly with paved sidewalks. We have 2 bikes for your use. Additionally, any golfers can enjoy Duck Woods Country Club which is just down Dogwood Lane.

Inside of the home we have 3 large bedrooms and 2.5 baths. The "boat house" sits on the canal-side of the house with an additional bedroom, full bath and medium pool table. This is detached from the main house and is a favorite spot for teens or light sleepers! At night, enjoy the sound of the waves crashing ashore from the beach and the owls chatting from tree to tree.

This was our first time in the Outer Banks and it was perfect. We actually spent most of our time at the house when we weren't at the beach. Tara truly thought of everything! Great kitchen to cook in, lots of towels for the pool, puzzles, games, travel toiletries, everything. The screened porch was our favorite spot. The men in our group caught crabs and cooked them just about every day. This was one of the best homes we have stayed at on vacation.

We’ve been renting homes in the OBX for 20 years, and I can honestly say Tara is by far the best host we have ever had. While we’ve rented oceanfront homes for years, this stay officially made us soundfront converts. The setting is so quiet, peaceful, and picturesque. We loved watching the gorgeous sunsets, taking in all the local wildlife…from deer to birds and watching the boats pass by. The private dock was a massive hit for our family for daily fishing and crabbing, and the pool was fantastic. The house itself is incredibly comfortable and remarkably well-stocked, especially the kitchen, which had more than any other rental we've stayed in. Tara has truly thought of everything. Spending mornings on the screened-in porch with a hot cup of coffee (and getting a little work done) was a daily highlight. To be honest, we didn’t even make it down to the beach because we were having such a wonderful time at the house! The location also couldn't be better: super central to everything, with grocery stores just right down the road. Tara’s response times were lightning-fast, and she went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable throughout our entire stay. Look no further for your next OBX trip…you will not be disappointed. Thank you so much, Tara, for helping us create incredible memories!

Surround Sound was the perfect setting for our anniversary getaway and our dogs first trip to the beach. The home had everything we needed and more to enjoy fabulous views, beautiful pool / spa, an incredibly relaxing screened in porch to enjoy the sunsets, along with dinners on the porch including a lot of blue crabs we caught right from the dock! Tara was the perfect host, keeping us updated, answering questions and providing a home beautifully decorated with privacy to enjoy nature, fishing, swimming and relaxing. The sunsets were amazing and our dog loved walking the property where we saw osprey, deer, rabbits and blue heron each day. Driving to the parking area for private beach access worked perfectly for morning walks on the beach, then going to Duck to walk the boardwalk for shopping and dining out. Having supplies provided for the beach, fishing, swimming and biking made it easy to enjoy the area, but we spent most of our time enjoying the home, screened porch, dock and pool. Thank you Tara for even leaving a dog toy! We so enjoyed our getaway, didn't want to leave, but look forward to returning in the future.

We had a fantastic stay at this property. In fact, my kids are already hoping to return next year. The house was exactly as represented in the listing, the owner was great and easy to communicate with, and the location was lovely. We hadn’t previously stayed in the Southern Shores area and weren’t sure what to expect. It was a quiet community with beach access provided just a short drive away. The pool was our favorite of any house we’ve rented. It has a nice entry (would also be good for babies and toddlers with the extended shallow end to sit and play with supervision) and plenty of space for the 4 of us to enjoy. The screened in porch was my favorite part. It rained the first 2 days we were there. Being able to sit on the porch and enjoy the rain on the water was a bonus. We did bring our dog with us. It was nice not having to walk her down lots of stairs to go out each time. She also enjoyed the screened porch as she could keep an eye on us in the pool. The house had everything we needed to cook and provided extras such as beach/pool towels, floats, fishing poles. I have nothing but great things to say about this stay!

The BEST house we have rented in 30 years going to Duck! Does not feel like a rental - it feels like a comfortable home you could stay at forever. Tara has provided everything you need to make it very livable - from linens, beach towels and chairs, to bikes and lawn games, even paper products and toiletries! The layout is so practical and inviting. Fantastic views of the water, a first floor en-suite, perfect for our 80 year old parents, and a separate bed/bath above the garage which offered valuable privacy for our daughter and son-in-law. The best part though is the huge screen porch! It stays shaded all day but is right next to the pool deck so you can stay out of the sun and still be a part of all the action around the pool. The back yard is very private with an amazing pool and tons of chairs and floats. The spa felt great in the evenings and easily fit all 8 of us. Gorgeous sunset views from the dock, as well as an easy launch spot for kayaking. The house is in a very peaceful neighborhood only a short mile to private beach access with parking, or 3 miles to downtown Duck. Also super easy to enter/exit island or head south to other beaches or shopping without ever having to get on Rt 12 - which is a huge plus on check-in/check-out days! Tara was a fantastic host and was responsive to all my questions before and during our stay. When I messaged her about one very minor maintenance item, she had someone there to fix it within hours! Five stars all around!!

The listing and pictures don't do it justice

This property is absolutely incredible. We've been going to OBX for a few years now and we've never stayed on the bay side, the location was amazing letting us get away from some of the ocean side hustle and bustle. The house was right on the bay with a beautiful pool and hot tub that provided our kids with endless fun for our trip. The highlight for me though was the covered (and screened) porch in the back. It's beautiful in the morning and evenings and stays cool and shaded in the afternoons. We loved this place and will be back!

A Great Getaway for Families of All Ages

I cannot say enough about this amazing rental property . The owners have truly thought of everything. The home was accessible for my elderly grandparents but had more than enough to keep the teenagers busy. From the kayaks and bicycles to the cornhole games, we were busy the entire week and we barely had to leave the house. It was clean and so peaceful, we loved enjoying family meals on the screened in porch. Our Great Dane also had the best week lounging in the yard and watching the wildlife. We truly cannot say enough about this place and are already planning a trip back. Thank you, Tara, for our best family vacation yet.

the best house

We’re two families who have travelled together for nearly 15 years - and without doubt this was our very favorite house. Everything was perfect: right next to the inland water that people call The Sound (we rented kayaks)with a view from every room. We saw a sea otter, an osprey catch a fish, herons… Ten minutes or less to the beach where you have special access - there we saw dolphins. Duck is the nearest town - loved that too. Inside there was thoughtful low key modern decor, orchids, a separate room for our teenagers over the boathouse, impeccably stocked kitchen and bathrooms - plus a host who really went extra mile to put up with an awkward request and was fully available. We’re already talking about next year.

Fantastic home and location

Excellent host and exactly as described. The screened in porch was situated next to the pool with a great view of the sound. It was a great gathering place. The pool is a good size that we could all enjoy. We had the master bedroom on the main floor which was great. The 4 kids were in an upstairs bedroom with the the parents in the upstairs master. We never heard them. My daughter and granddaughter were in the boathouse and they loved the privacy. Kitchen was well stocked with spices, utensils and pots and pans. Tara, the host had a welcome basket with goodies and fun prizes for the kids which was very thoughtful. There was great communication and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Highly recommended!

Wonderful family getaway!

The property is in a really beautiful setting in Southern Shores with amazing views over the sound -- mornings and evenings well spent watching nature's show from the fully screened-in porch or the end of the dock. The house worked really well for our group of 5 adults, 5 kids (ranging in age from 3-10) and dog. Plenty of room for all 5 kids in the bunk room, two great-sized bedrooms in the house for the adults, and the added benefit of privacy in the separate boathouse accommodation. The pool was ideal for us, as it has a very wide, shallow step, which allowed the 3 yo to play confidently while her older sisters/cousins swam in the main part of the pool. We alternated mornings at the pool with afternoons at the beach -- parking permits for beach access included -- or other nearby activities (water park, dolphin cruise etc.) OBX has much to offer for a family vacation, and Surround Sound was a fantastic base. Owner was really communicative, attentive and available. We would happily return.

Memorial Day getaway

This property is absolutely beautiful! My favorite feature was the screened-in porch – it quickly became our go-to spot for morning coffee, afternoon reading, and evening wildlife watching. Even though we had some rain during our stay, the porch made it easy to still enjoy the outdoors. With a dining table, loveseat, and comfy chairs, we were able to relax while watching river otters, ospreys, and even a baby deer passing by.A close second favorite was the pier – perfectly situated for the most stunning sunsets! It was peaceful and scenic, and a great place to unwind at the end of the day.The grocery store was minutes away and the kitchen was well-stocked with everything we needed to cook basic meals, which made it easy to settle in and feel at home. The layout of the home is also ideal for multiple couples or families. One bedroom and bathroom has a separate entrance, offering added privacy, and the main bedroom on the first floor is nicely separated from the upstairs bedrooms – a great setup if you’re concerned about noise or different schedules.Overall, this was a fantastic getaway. Whether you're looking to relax, reconnect with nature, or simply enjoy a beautiful view rain or shine, this property delivers. Highly recommend!

I agree that the layout is one of a kind and the back porch/dock are my favorite spots. We love this little piece of paradise and appreciate that you took such great care of it. Hope we see you next summer!

I would have given 5/5 on everything but there were a few minor things. The house and location is perfect. Quiet neighborhood in the middle of everything. Pool was awesome and being on the sound was so relaxing. The owner was very responsive and text weeks ahead of time to go through everything with us. The WiFi needs to be upgraded. Very weak and our mobile service was weak too. Not that, that was a huge deal because there was so much to do but definitely a minor fix that could be made. Also the upstairs bathroom toilet was problematic throughout the week. Had to jiggle the handle every time we flushed or it would keep running. And on the last night it stopped flushing completely. Owner knew about the issue so we were a little bummed that hadn't been fixed before we arrived. Again not a deal killer or enough to ruin our stay. We absolutely loved the house otherwise. Would definitely stay here again!

Thanks for the thorough review. My apologies that we could not get the toilet fixed sooner. We tried. As for the internet issue that was the entire island. Other than the one island wide problem, we have not had any internet issues. We hope you will stay with us again and give us the chance to earn all 5 stars.

What we loved:- Private beach is only a few minutes away, and is much quieter than surrounding beaches. There was always ample parking.- Quiet neighborhood with friendly neighbors. Surrounded by nature - we particularly enjoyed watching the osprey fish. - Beautiful view from the dock, we experienced some beautiful sunsets. Low light pollution - can clearly see the stars at night- Great for pets, the backyard backs to water and the rest fully is fenced off.- Spacious rooms and clean bathrooms. High ceilings in the living room.- Great for families. Lots of games and activities provided. Lots of fishing supplies provided. My son and I enjoy catching crabs right off the deck.- Well stocked kitchen. My wife and I like to cook, and we weren’t missing anything in the kitchen. Great appliances we particularly enjoyed the craft ice maker.- Pool is pretty and is fun in the evening with its colorful lights.Great location that’s close to great restaurants in Duck- Homeowner was responsive and made checkin seamless.Areas for improvement:- Jacuzzi only heated at specific times and for a fee.- Kayaks cost extra, and they are hard to get them into the water - the path was not clear.- The top bunk could use a guard rail, was nervous about having our son sleeping there. - The pedal boat was a little flimsy.- Check-out time was too early.

Thanks so much for the thorough review. We too wish the swim spa was less expensive to heat. Unfortunately, the peddle boat will have to be retired as parts are no longer made and I cannot replace steering mechanism. We and years of guest did enjoy it though. We hope you come back again! Your group was a pleasure to host!
