The second day we had to move to another condo. Barrier Island told us it was how Expedia sent the reservation but we learned from employees that it was how Barrier Island managed the units. 4 families had to move between units I will not be staying there again.

We enjoyed our stay. My only criticism would be that we received an email 3 days before we checked in that stated there is limited bedding and to bring our own. Upon callling the front desk, we learned that there are sheets, pillows and a light blanket. The email is for those that want a comforter or multiple heavy blankets. As we were flying in to NC, we obviously didn’t bring bedding with us. Just be assured, all the linens are provided. Only beach towels are not provided but those are easily purchased if forgotten. The email was a little confusing. Enjoy the area!!

Good place in Duck NC
Indoor pools were closed “indefinitely” for construction but according to the email I was sent by the resort shortly before my stay , they were supposed to be done by fall 2022. My stay was in June 2023. Other than that, the room was nice and the outdoor pools and recreation was good. No complaints other than the indoor pools being closed which had pictures online so it was misleading.

The unit seemed pretty clean. However, it is severely dated and in need of repairs and updates. There are a lot of dangerous angles, especially going on the deck. The roofline is down at head level, and if you aren't paying attention, you can seriously hurt yourself. Overall it was ok, but could definitely be very nice with repairs. Also, if you have trouble climbing stairs, this is NOT the place for you!

Barrier Island Station is in a unique location, it's located between the sound and the ocean off NC 12, with easy access to either or. It is also located about 2 miles from downtown Duck and all the shops. They have easy access to the ocean and their pool within the property and plenty of parking if needed. Barrier Island has a Snack shack located by the pool and a coffee shop located at the front of their property off NC 12, they have games and activities located throughout their property, we enjoyed our stay.

The floor was unlevel as if the condo had shifted. Upstairs and downstairs. Not too reassuring as you’re walking around. We were up several levels so that made it worse.

It rained during our stay and the window leaked, leaving our clothes soaked. We were expecting 2 beds per room, and there was only one in each. There was black mold on the walls , and part of the floor in the master bedroom was rotting through. When we expressed our concerns, nothing was done.
