Duck
Bridger is an updated 4-bedroom Ships Watch cottage with water views, a top-level great room, dining area and kitchen, and all bedrooms grouped on the middle level.

With water views, decks, and bedrooms grouped together, Bridger gives families a comfortable base for beach mornings, pool afternoons, relaxed meals at home, and sunset time on the soundfront side of Ships Watch.
For guests who want a simple rhythm, this home makes it easy: beach in the morning, pool or tennis in the afternoon, dinner in Duck, and sunset from the soundfront pier. Comfortable living, dining, kitchen, bedroom, and outdoor spaces help the home feel practical for a full vacation week.
Ships Watch makes the week feel easier with amenities between the ocean and the sound. Guests can use the beach access, pool areas, hot tub, tennis and pickleball courts, basketball, playground, boat ramp, and soundfront pier. Sheets, bath towels, outdoor shower access, and Ships Watch beach gear are provided, including beach chairs, an umbrella, and beach towels. Confirm exact inclusions and schedules before booking.

Guests can also use the bike path, visit Duck Town Park, or enjoy soundside watersports. For dinner, options include The Blue Point, Aqua Restaurant, NC Coast Grill & Bar, Red Sky Cafe, The Paper Canoe, and Village Table & Tavern. Food Lion and Harris Teeter are convenient options for groceries, drinks, beach snacks, and larger shopping trips during your Ships Watch stay.
