Beautiful location, house needs some care before recommending

Sanderling location is beautiful. The house was once beautiful but now needs some maintenance/repair (especially the deck, railings, siding, replace screens, furniture has pet damage) or very clean for this early in the season (pet hair still in house, vents need cleaning of some obvious mold, outdoor furniture had to be cleaned before using, floors). We always enjoy time in Duck and this beautiful neighborhood, but this house needs some attention before we can recommend it to others.

Sea Lion great place for everyone!

We had a marvelous time at this home in Duck. It was just right for our family of 5, plus our dog. The location to the beach, restaurants, and shopping is great. We highly recommend this rental.

Sea Lion in Sanderling

We had a nice week at Sea Lion. The house was great overall but definitely could use some attention. The house is in a great location and the beach was not crowded. We enjoyed the great decks with ocean views and the lower deck and screened porch provided shade during the heat of the summer. The kitchen was well stocked but some pans were very dirty/greasy and unusable. The semi-private walkway to the beach was nice, but keep in mind there is a sand dune at the end that you must climb to get back from the beach. This was difficult for my active parent in their 70’s. Many blinds were broken or missing slats, or the wand to open/close them. The beds frames are wooden and creaky and some dressers were missing handles. The showers had mildew in them and could use a good cleaning, as could the carpets. I would definitely consider staying here again since it allowed dogs and the location and beach are so nice. Overall, the house was nice too, just showing it’s age and lots of use. If you are looking for an affordable house in a great location with close proximity to the beach and can manage the dune climb, bring you dogs and enjoy Sea Lion.

Solid 4 Stars

First time on the Duck area. Loved it. The property was within the Sanderling Restore. Overall beautiful, residential area. 50 Steps to a great beach.

The house is ok. The furnishings inside and especially outside just need to be replaced, period.

Manager's Response

Hi Michael, thank you for your review. We're glad to hear that the home met your needs and you enjoyed your time in Duck. It is truly a wonderful and family friendly area. Apologies that you found the furnishings in need of replacement, we will pass this recommendation along to the owner.

We have rented Sea Lion several times and always have a wonderful time. We especially like being able to bring the family dog and swim in the Sanderling pool. Highlights: outdoor shower, bikes, beach access, Sanderling lights out night policy for stargazing, wonderful porches.

Manager's Response

Thank you for taking the time and leaving us such a wonderful review. We are glad that you and your family love staying at Sea Lion, and the owner will be pleased to learn of your high praise. Bringing your furry family member gives a whole new meaning to family vacationing. We look forward to welcoming you back for many years to come!

Great location!

Sea Lion has a great location with boardwalk access to the beach in a nice quiet neighborhood making for uncrowded beaches which was especially appreciated during this past summer. Upper deck has a nice view of the ocean with comfortable lounge chairs. The wooden railing on the upper deck is very loose and shaky which could be dangerous. The screened-in room was a nice addition during hot days. The kitchen had a good layout but the cabinets could use a good scrubbing around the handles. Generally, the house is very comfortable and the location was perfect.

Manager's Response

Thank you for reviewing your stay at Sea Lion. The owner takes pride in providing their guests the best experience and I am sure they will love to hear that you had everything you needed. I will notify the appropriate departments about the cabinet handles and upper deck railing to ensure those matters are attended to quickly to improve experiences for the next guests. I am happy to hear that you enjoyed yourselves and we hope to have you back with us in the coming year!

It was a great place to stay because we had access to the beach within a few steps. The house was great with a modern fully stocked kitchen, the beds had newer mattresses and we're really comfortable. I would stay there again!

PERFECT LOCATION

We were in Duck for a wedding at the Sanderling. This house was perfect; location and size wise. There were just 4 of us but with storing the Wedding dress and other items the extra room was terrific. This is a very nice house within walking distance of the Sanderling.

Manager's Response

Wishing the wedding party all the best for the future. We are glad that "Sea Lion" was just right for your party of four. Please join us again in the future for your seasonal vacation.

Week at the Sea Lion

We enjoyed our stay very much, with just a few exceptions. We enjoy reading books on vacation in the evening and found that the couch had little support for the neck, so using pillows from the bedroom was necessary. The couch is old with not great support. Also the A/C unit blows down on your head. Would have liked some decent chairs to sit on.The beds were great!!

Relaxing Getaway

Sea Lion was exactly what we were expecting and hoping for... a relaxing getaway very close to the ocean. The home was clean, it had nice sized yard for outdoor games, and the deck space was great; including the screened-in portion. Plus the short walk to the private beach was perfect. Would definitely recommend this home. We look forward to returning.

Great Spring Break Vacation

This was a very special trip for my family. I am the mother of 3 boys (ages 18,14 And 11). My husband was diagnosed with cancer in Nov 2014 and passed away on March 16th. He was only 49 years old. We needed a getaway vacation and that is how we ended up in Duck. I brought my 3 sisters and their girls with us to stay for the week. We loved the house and the distance from the beach. The private boardwalk was a plus. The house had everything that we needed. We laughed and cried while we were there. We didn't want to leave. We would definitely recommend the house to our friends and family. Please thank the owners for giving us the getaway that we needed after such a difficult 4 1/2 months. Pam Dyba
