"Fantastic location, beach was great and never crowded. The house worked great for the multiple families in our party. This is our 4th year of staying at Duchess and we look forward to booking next year!!"

Karen   ·  Stayed June 2021

"This house is a strong 4.5 star home. This was our 3rd visit to the home and won't be our last. We have already booked for next year. The location, the AWESOME views and the relatively unpopulated beach make for a great vacation house. The house is comfortable and homey. Great setup for larger families or small groups. We love the extra den for the kids. Beds are comfortable and 6 masters is such a great feature. A little outside TLC would push this to a 5 star home. We have already started the countdown for next year."

Pamala   ·  Stayed May 2021

"Great house, great location. A little dated, but a great stay. Loved the bagels, the owner provided through lighthouse bagels. Beach is great, kids thought the shipwreck was very cool. Thank you Twiddy for another great stay in the OBX."

Gayle   ·  Stayed June 2020

"It is a beautiful home, well maintained, and stocked with everything you need. We especially loved the ice machine! Thank you so much for giving me this opportunity to stay oceanfront! It was on my bucket list!"

Leann   ·  Stayed May 2020

"The house was awesome. Right on the ocean. The kitchen is well stocked. We loved the ice maker. The only issue we had with the kitchen was the knives. They did not have one knife that was sharp. I suggest bringing your own knives to cut any meat with. Other than the knife situation the house was perfect."
