DU909: Blue Bayou (Formerly Blues Run)

The best part of our vacation

From wall-to-wall windows, we sat and enjoyed looking out at the surf. Being the end of winter, we enjoyed the well heated house and beautiful gas fireplace. Plenty of room to move around and relax on the multiple decks and in the multiple spaces. Wi-Fi did cut out on one day of our visit, but it was fast when it was working. There was a weather system moving through, which may have been the cause. Our wireless reception was great so we were able to switch to that in the meantime. Thanks so much for a great stay.

Great location, great view, great location

A wonderful place to spend time at the beach. The living room is light and airy with views of the ocean. Comfortable furniture, cozy fireplace for winter stays. Couldn’t be nicer! Bedrooms comfortable too. Two bathrooms have been very tastefully updated, but not the master bathroom (yet?). We will definitely try to rent the home next time we come to Duck.

Blue Bayou is a great beach house!

Blue Bayou was everything we were looking for in a beach house! Gorgeous sunrises from the deck, right on the beach, great view from the living room/ dining table in front of the wall of windows—we watched dolphins jumping while eating lunch! The location is great—a quick drive to Duck, but also not far from Corolla. We drove to the pool, but it’s probably close enough to walk. The neighborhood was also great for taking a walk when we wanted a break from the sand. The house itself was beautiful and clean, and there was more than enough room for our family. We would love to stay again!

Great location, great view, great view

Overall the place was great for the week we were there. The view from the living room was stunning and great location and proximity to the beach. The house had most of the amenities we needed and the house was very comfortable. Only a couple of issues. Not sure if just no one had been there in a while or what but everything on the deck and screened in porch were covered in spider webs and dirt. I understand they can’t control the spiders, just would have appreciated not having to wipe everything down on arrival. Also the windows facing the ocean were dirty and took away from the view a little bit. We mentioned to the host and they said they’d send someone to powerwash, but no one ever showed up and there was no communication from them after the initial message. Generally would’ve have let it slide, but for the price I’d expect more, and the lack of follow up. Other than those couple of things it was a nice place.
