Overview

Welcome to Happy Crab! This casual cottage is bright and cheerful, with high ceilings and sweeping sound views from two levels of wraparound decks. A palette of tropical colors and popular amenities set the stage for fun days in the sun. Shelves are lined with various games and books to enjoy during your vacation stay. There are two expansive gathering areas, a breezy screened-in porch, a crow's nest for heightened views, and a nice selection of private bedrooms. This community is located just a mile north of the Duck town center and provides convenient beach and sound accesses. Award-winning beaches, shops, eateries, and family-friendly activities are just minutes from your doorstep!

If you need more space for your vacation group, #415 Piping Plover has the same homeowners and check-in day, is located right across the street, and offers four bedrooms and a large private pool.

Our offices will be closed on December 25, 2026 for the Christmas Day holiday. If your 2026 lease check-in date is on Christmas Day please note that we will work to make special arrangements to alter your check-in date.

this was our second year, renting this house and we love it, as we are renting again in 2026! the house is very well stocked and we had all of our dinners on the screened in porch, thank you for sharing your house !! great memories were made i turned 60, and our youngest got engaged.

House was great - it was the nicest that we have rented in OBX. All of the little touches throughout the house made it wonderful. Thanks for having all of the dog-friendly amenities!
