Places
to eat in Corolla or Duck
We've been to the Outer Banks several
times in the last few years. The restaurants
we've tried have not impressed us.
We ate at Elizabeth's in Duck but
thought it was very pricey for mediocre
food. We've tried the Sunset Grill
and thought the location was pretty
but the inside atmosphere and food
were disappointing. Any suggestions?

Hatteras
or Duck/Corolla?
Planning a vacation to OBX and am
trying to decide between Hatteras,
Avon area or Duck/Corolla, with oceanfront
rental in either location. From what
I understand Duck/Corolla is newer
and more residential and rentals seem
to be more costly. Hatteras area appears
to be less populated, and rentals
less costly. I'm trying to determine
the benefits or drawbacks to each
area. A couple of specific questions
I have are:
How long is drive to each area once
you get over bridge? Are there enough
'large' grocery stores; video rentals
and restuarants in each area? Is the
beach area different in either area
or access to beach from the homes
(in things read on Hatteras rental
descriptions don't mention 'private
boardwalk to beach')? Any and all
information would be appreciated.
Thanks for taking the time to respond.

Town
park in Duck?
Could anyone tell me where this is
located? We're going to try to get
on the island early this year to avoid
traffic, and the park looks like the
perfect place for a picnic lunch (and
somewhere where the kids can burn
off some energy after sitting in the
car for 8 hours!). Read
