It’s true that “Happiness Comes in Waves,” especially at this fantastic oceanfront home! Located directly on the oceanfront in Southern Shores, this gem is reminiscent of Outer Banks homes of yesteryear but with many modern updates. The ocean view is the star of the show in this open concept vacation home.
The great room on the middle level of the home is open, allowing light to filter through from both the second and third level windows. Kick back and relax with family in the living area and watch a movie on the large 75" Smart TV. The kitchen is spacious, and includes everything needed to prepare meals for the duration of your stay. Ample counter space and countertop seating are included for quick breakfasts or snacks on the go. Two dining tables are located nearby so that the entire family can enjoy meals together. A third table with two stools is included if more dining space is needed, or to construct a puzzle or play a hand of cards. There are three bedrooms on the second floor, offering a King and two Queen beds. Two of the bedrooms share a full bathroom and another full bathroom can also be found on the second level.
The top floor of the home is loft-style and overlooks the middle level common areas. The ocean view is the star of the show in the sitting room on the top floor. A desk facing the ocean is also included for those who need to work during vacation, and deck access is nearby to sneak out for some salty ocean air. Comfortable seating is available in many locations on the top level deck as well as the wrap-around deck on the second floor. On this level, you will find the master bedroom, which includes a private bathrom. There is access to the deck from the master bedroom. Two additional bedrooms can be found on the third floor, as well as a full bathroom.
Step outside to take a dip in the 16x36 saltwater private pool while you listen to the waves roll in! Relax in the hot tub, grab a beverage at the tiki bar or start a game of billiards on the outdoor pool table! A dune deck is situated at the end of the private walkway, perfect for enjoying morning coffee while looking out for dolphins playing in the ocean. Located approximately one mile from Duck Village, this home is convenient to all that the town of Duck has to offer. The bike path that runs along Duck Road makes it easy to reach Duck Village if you'd like to avoid driving. A stay at “Happiness Comes in Waves” will surely leave you with treasured OBX vacation memories!

"The kitchen was fully stocked so that we could cook great meals all week. It was very close to the beach and the layout was great for us and four adult children."
"Good service, prompt information about the home."
"Beach access, pool, open floor plan, well stocked kitchen"
"Great location with views of the ocean. Pool was very nice. The house was spacious and clean with a well equipped kitchen."
"Loved the closeness to the beach. The pool looked amazing but weather was a little chilly to make use of it. The house is beautifully furnished and decorated, but they desperately need teaspoons. There were only two, but service for many, many people. Overall, a fantastic place!"
"Great location."
"Clean, on the beach, very well decorated with great sea views, good amenities, in a perfect location just before going into Duck on a secluded street."
"The kitchen and gathering area is a fantastic space. The kitchen is well stocked with essentials and we loved the island and having two sinks. The pool is really wonderful and the overall location of the house is really convenient. Our three generation group really loved it."
"The home has a well equipped kitchen - best I've ever rented. Awesome location too. The home is very spacious."
"We had a great time, we had rain the first few days but the house was so beautiful and had a closet full of activities we didn't mind the few days of rain. Stunning sunrises, very quiet and calm area. The kitchen was was very well stocked with everything we could have possible needed. We had the best time."
"The nearness to the ocean, the pool, the cleanliness, the well stocked kitchen, the comfortable beds, the size and layout of the home, the closeness to Duck and the shopping there"
"the great room was spacious and comfortable for cooking, eating and socializing. Great access to the beach and plenty of parking. The pool was nice but could use more pool deck. Looking forward to seeing the additional improvements from the new owners."
"Location was great, much better interior than any of our past rentals."
"Layout was perfect for our group. Kitchen was was well supplied with everything we needed. Location perfect"
"Lovely oceanfront home with amazing great room, direct walkway to beach with dune decks, and great AV options throughout. We loved the main room and three bedrooms up and three bedrooms down arrangement. Highly recommended."
"This was the perfect home for our family vacation! We had 11 people and it was just right (although we could have easily added one more!). The open floor plan allowed for us to all hang out and be together yet have our own space in our bedrooms. There was plenty of dishes and pots and pans! We loved Happiness Comes in Waves!"
