Need a getaway? It’s time for the Great Escape! Located in the Pine Island community of Corolla, The Great Escape II is the perfect vacation home for anyone in need of a break from reality. Tucked next to the Pine Island Audubon Wildlife Refuge, vacationers can experience the views of both the sound and the ocean. Pine Island is secluded on the beach in Corolla, allowing for endless beach views full of relaxation and serenity. The Great Escape II is a perfect getaway for those in search of uninterrupted time with family, friends and the beach.

The top floor of this home is enclosed with massive windows, allowing for wide-ranging views of the ocean from various rooms. The kitchen is supplied with tools to satisfy all of your cooking needs, encouraging family dinners. Enjoy the views from the dining area, surrounded by the stretch of waves in the distance. After dinner, head over a few steps into the great room, where the family fun continues. There is a master bedroom with a king bed, a large walk-in shower and a private deck. The top floor of this home is designed for spending time with family and friends while taking in the breathtaking views that the Outer Banks has to offer!

The second level of this home contains two master bedrooms, each with a king bed. One of these rooms has deck access while the other has a private deck. There are two more bedrooms - one with a king bed with deck access and the other with two duo bunks. Kick back and relax here after a long day on the beach, or simply enjoy each other’s company out on the deck, overlooking the rolling waves!

Last but not least, the bottom level of this home beholds laundry, a queen sleeper sofa, a second refrigerator, full bath and another bedroom. The bedroom contains two bunk sets, providing this home with plenty of room and comfort for all of the guests in the home. Step outside and take a dip in the private pool, soak in the hot tub or rest poolside on the patio. After a quick swim in the pool or long day perched by the beach, come inside to the den on the bottom floor to congregate and cool off. The Great Escape II provides guests with comfortable amenities such as USB charging ports in each bedroom, exciting extras like the pool and hot tub, as well as scenic views. It’s time for you to make your Great Escape to the Outer Banks for a vacation full of fun and lifelong memories!

Thank you for your comments!
Connie   ·  Stayed June 2023

"Great Escape II was a beautiful home. It had everything we needed! The kitchen was very well appointed. The furniture was wonderful and comfortable. The large pool and proximity to the beach was amazing. We liked it so well we have put an advanced hold on the property for next year and can hardly wait to return."

Sarah   ·  Stayed May 2023

"The home had great views, wonderful deck spaces, and very nice furniture in the main living space. The home was well equipped and close to lots of great walks."

"Great Escape II is a beautiful and comfortable home. The views from the home and the decks are spectacular. Great deck furniture! Tge kitchen is very well equipped."

Robert   ·  Stayed December 2022

"Very well appointed home. As mentioned in other reviews the stand alone ice maker doesn’t work. We defrosted, powered off, etc, no ice. The beach is very narrow here at this point. For many hours around high tide the beach is unusable - the water is up to the dune. Great hot tub."

Richard   ·  Stayed October 2022
Barbara   ·  Stayed October 2022

"Fresh, great views, great condition! Super well equipped kitchen!"

Deborah   ·  Stayed October 2022

"We have stayed here before. The location and floor plan were perfect for our extended family. We did have some water damage from the hurricane but it was taken care of. We did not have ice the entire week due to a broken ice maker. Otherwise everyone had a great time. I tried to rebook the house again for 2023 but was told that Twiddy is not renting it next year."

Joann   ·  Stayed September 2022

"Large well appointed bedrooms, awesome decks, everything you could think of needing in the kitchen, lots of bathrooms, and the views - beautiful!! Lovely pool, lots of beach chairs and only steps from the beach. Other than my fitted sheet kept slipping off each night and the fact that Hurrican Ian blew through (powerful but also beautiful) so there was some leakage around several windows and sliding doors - but we called Twiddy and they came and dealt with the issues ever so quickly. Ice maker didn't work but they were ordering a part so should be good for the next family. Everything was great for our vacation. - Would definitely stay here again!!"

Vicki   ·  Stayed September 2022

"Location to everything & being on the beach. The house was beautiful, only negative, the ice maker didn’t work & we had to constantly go buy bags of ice."

Kris   ·  Stayed May 2022

"We loved the location. Great views of the ocean and of the sound. The house was very well equipped for meals and it was lovely."

Lynnette   ·  Stayed November 2021

"There are small things that can be fixed to make this place 5+ stars. I would give it 4 for the house but the view and beach access makes it 5 stars no matter what. Would recommend 100%"

"We loved our stay at E189. Great house and wonderful view. Just wish it had an elevator."

David   ·  Stayed August 2020

"This is our second time at Great Escape II. The location is great as it feels almost like a private beach. Interior was clean and beds were comfortable. We were 4 adults and two children. Exterior needs a good power washing and the windows needs to be washed on the outside."

Aj   ·  Stayed August 2020

"The best Twiddy home we’ve rented by far. Very well apportioned and perfect location to Duck & Corolla shops."
