About this Property

  • 3 Bedrooms

A truly unique retreat, this oceanfront home is full of color, charming wood finishes, and lush greenery. When you aren't down on the beach, check out the nearby Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, Family Water Adventures, and a plethora of galleries, eateries, and parks.

Back at your stay, rinse off the sand in the outdoor shower before finding yourself lounging in the brilliantly bold living room adorned with soft seating and a large TV. Step out onto the private balcony when you want the ocean breeze to kiss your skin. In the adjacent well-equipped kitchen, cooking will come easy with the ocean views never having to leave your sight. When it's time to eat, dine together at the formal dining table or pack a picnic to go.

Each of the bedrooms is retro, comfortable, and spacious. But when you aren't lounging here under the cool air of the central air-conditioning, spread out in the loft where an additional TV and sprawling sofa provide the perfect spot for movie nights.

End your evenings with a walk down to the beach, where the air is breezy, the sound of the waves crashing is therapeutic, and the memories cultivated are lifelong.

Carnival Treats at the Beach—With Flavorful Creations and Allergy-Friendly Options, Donutz on a Stick Serves Up Sweet Treats for Everyone

 

David and Stephanie were not always in the business of carnival confections. In fact, Stephanie was a fitness instructor and David worked in the computer field. But he loved donuts and she loved ice cream, and when they saw an opportunity to bring their favorite treats to beachgoers, they jumped on it.

 

In 2014, the couple opened their first Donutz on a Stick—a family-run, family-friendly dessert shop on the boardwalk. They quickly realized that in order to serve everyone, they would need to get creative. “We had a family who would come in, and one of the little boys would have to wait by the door because of his gluten allergy,” David says. “That didn’t sit well with us. We wanted everyone to come under the same roof no matter what kind of allergies they had. And we continue to work towards that goal.”

 

The Williams’ daughter Desireé spent six weeks experimenting until she created a gluten-free donut that was totally safe and delicious. Gluten-free donuts are now a huge part of the business, with more than 1,000 being served each day, just out of the Duck location. But you will want to call or stop by to reserve them in advance.

 

The Williams’ other three children, David, Justin and Christian, have all invented menu items as well, such as Christian’s donut milkshake, which features hot and fresh cooked donuts blended into a milkshake with another donut on top making it picture perfect.

 

While all the Williams have created menu items, the most popular pick—the donut sundae—was actually a happy accident.

 

“We were being featured in a local magazine and we could only have one photo for the article,” David says. Since both ice cream and donuts were equally popular, “we built the donut sundae for the photo and we discovered after the photoshoot that it tasted amazing. It was completely serendipitous.”

 

The Williams family is constantly creating and improving upon their recipes. At the heart of it all is a desire to see everyone come in and enjoy an experience together. They want to bring the carnival to your mouth.

 

“No matter how busy we are—even if there’s a line down the boardwalk—every customer gets that engagement and service from us,” they say.

 

The family has since opened a second location in the Hampton Roads, Virginia area.
