Welcome to Duckling Crossing. Most female ducks hatch five ducklings. Since we have five children, as they were growing up, we always referred to them as our little “ducklings”. We still do! Even though some of our little ducklings have ducklings of their own now. Coincidentally, Duck Island is right out our window and their are plenty of ducks that love to swim in the beautiful waters. Duckling Crossing seems like the perfect name for our beach home. Come and see for yourself.

The Space:
The home has four bedrooms with two bathrooms and a large private beach & entertainment space inside and out. Inside has updated appliances and brand-new furnishings to match this completely remodeled home. Bedrooms on the second floor accompany a full bath, and washer and dryer for your convenience.
