Just For Fun offers “ribbon” vistas of the ocean from the family room and decks from one of the highest points in Duck—race to the beach – a 4-min. walk – to dig your feet in the warm sand. 'Just for Fun' comes equipped with body boards, skimboards, a wagon to haul stuff, and bicycles and helmets to ride to Schooner Ridge's private beach access (where you'll find a beachside pool and showers). After riding waves and building sand castles all day, come home to sit in the front porch swing, lay in the hammock, and watch the kids play basketball out front. Or swim and splash out back in the 18' x 28' private saltwater pool, use the pool-side bathhouse and shower, swing under the pool-side gazebo, and relax in the huge hot tub under the star-filled sky. Grille up steaks and fresh seafood on the gas grille on the pool deck.

Savor the sun and sand while you find everything your family needs in kids-aligned Schooner Ridge. 100 yards and you're at the Schooner Ridge community center, where you'll find a new playground, tennis courts, an outdoor pool, and a separate infant pool – on the off-chance you catch a rainy day, the kids can splash in a heated indoor pool, play handball in the racquetball courts, or use the game room, and adults can savor the gym.

​​​​​​​Quaint stores and eateries in Duck Village await you – a five-min. walk. In Duck, you can find such treats as Sunset Ice-Cream, Big Bucks Ice Cream, the kayak launch, crabbing docks, complimentary concerts, puppet shows, and yoga/exercise classes at the amphitheater – all on the sound-side boardwalk that spans Duck Village. In close by Scarborough Lane and Scarborough Faire, you will find stores, coffee, and the Island Bookshop for a great beach read.

Head north 20 mins. to Corolla for go-karts, bumper cars, mini-golf, beach stores, and other fun activities for the kids. Climb the 220 steps of the Currituck Lighthouse for ocean-to-sound vistas, or take your 4x4 car on the beach where the road ends. See the wild ponies roaming the sands (believed to be descended from survivors of 17th-century Spanish shipwrecks). Or, head south to Kitty Hawk to visit the Wright Brothers National Monument or run Jockey's Ridge, the humongous sand dune that seems even more prominent in the moonlight. You'll find a long stretch of beachy eateries, stores, mini-golf, and a movie theater heading South to Hatteras.
