"The View has a great location with wonderful views of the ocean and the sound."
"We loved the pool, hot tub, and outdoor shower! The living area was very roomy and there were plenty of places for everyone to sit. The kitchen was large, was well stocked with everything we needed, and had tons of counter space."
"Loved the 2 story layout. Plenty of open space to dine or just snack."
"The view, the decks, the pool ,proximity to the beach. The house is well maintained."
Thank you for your survey. I will take a look at the shades. I have replaced most of the blinds but will take a look at the older ones. Thank you for being a great returning guest
"The View is a lovely Duck rental and probably one of the town's better values, considering the vast size of many properties on and near the beach nowadays. The dwelling seems to be capable of housing eight or 10 people, but it worked just fine for our group of two (plus dog and, briefly, adult kid). It sits two or three houses from the beach, which the dog loved. Everything worked; many things were nicely labeled; everything was clean. Ample windows deliver sunlight almost everywhere on the main level. Our favorite space was probably the little nook on the ocean side with the distinctive avocado and sky-blue decor."
"Love the location and layout of the home! The seats on the deck were very comfortable."
"The location along with the absolute cleanliness and amenities are second to none"
"Loved the proximity to the beach; pool; hot tub; and that the majority of bedrooms are on the main floor. House was extremely clean, well-equipped, and had views of both the ocean and the sound."
"We have stayed at this house for 5 or 6 years. It is a short walk to beach access and it has a nice hot tub and pool. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes and anything you need to prepare and cook your meals. It is in a quiet family and dog friendly neighborhood. Every bedroom has it's own dedicated bathroom. This year I believe there was a new dishwasher and refrigerator. Nice place to have a vacation!"
"We love staying at The View. The house is well equipped to make our vacation easy and enjoyable. It is a short walk to the beach. The pool and hot tub are very nice."
"The proximity to the beach and easy walk made up for any small shortcomings in this home. Overall, it was great and we would stay at The View again!"
"This house works perfect for our vacation - perfect size and room arrangements"
"I always enjoy my stay at The View. The house is comfortable and has everything you need. This year we had the remnants of hurricane Ian. Twiddy kept us completely updated on the storm. We had family game days and cooked more than usual. The house had everything we needed including games. I can never say enough about a vacation in this house. It has become my go to place to stay when going to OBX. I am already scheduled and excited for my next stay at The View. A sincere thank you to the owner of this home for sharing your wonderful vacation home and also Twiddy Vacation Rentals for always being friendly and reliable."
"This home is beautiful. We can’t wait to get back there in ‘23!!! Your service company for issues is second to none! Respectful and Polite!"
"This ocean front home was perfect for us- it is comfortably laid out and furnished. It has everything we could want or need in a beach home. But, best of all, it is pet friendly which is a must for us when we visit the OBX each year. I re-booked even before we left. Thank-you home owners!"
"The distance to the beach is great. The crow's nest is wonderful for watching sunrises and sunsets. The pool and hot tub were were nice. Our family also appreciated the fact that we could bring our dogs along."
"Location to beach. Interior layout. Pool and hot tub."
Thank you for the great review.
"The home was very well decorated and clean. Great pool area. It was great having a gas grill as to charcoal. Would highly recommend this home."
"This house is clean and located in the perfect location. Peaceful but close to shopping and other activities. The views are great and the short walk to the beach is nice. The outside amenities are fantastic, pool, hot tub and outdoor grill area. The layout of the house has a warmth yet spacious with a true outer banks decor. The owners make sure you have everything that you need to make you feel as if you were at home. Can not say enough about the enjoyment of staying at this property."
Thank you so much for the great review. Happy you are enjoying the house. Thanks also for being a repeat renter.
"As always Twiddy rentals are the best. Clean and like being at your own home. Everything you would need. The View has become my spring and fall getaway. The pool is great and my husband loves the hot tub. Just a short walk to the beach access at the end of the road. You can stand in front of the house and see the sunset on the sound or stand on the deck or from the great room and see the sun rise on the ocean. What more can you ask for. The outdoor grill and bar area is great. I can not say enough about this house. My family looks so forward to our weeks here."
"The views from this house are beautiful and the walk to the beach is short. The pool and hot tub were very nice. Our family really enjoys staying at this house."
"The house was wonderful! We had 8 adults, 3 little ones, and 2 dogs and it was PLENTY spacious. It truly had everything we needed and more. We loved how everything was labeled and so organized. We cannot think of a single suggestion to make it better. We can’t wait to come back!!"
"Great location. Just a couple of houses away from beach. Awesome amenities. Pool and hot tub were perfect! Bring your own ping pong balls if you want to play. House setup is great with 4 bedrooms on main and 1 bedroom with multiple bunks on lower level. Plenty of space for 2 -3 families. Mattresses were acceptable (not the worst I've slept on, but some room for improvement). Good hot water and water pressure in all showers. Would definitely consider renting again."
Thank you for the 5 Star review. We will work on getting some new mattresses for next season. Thanks for staying at our vacation home and we hope you will consider renting again.
"This is one of the cleanest homes we’ve been in, it smelled like soap, and it’s pet friendly - so that’s a great combination. We had a rainy week so the pool bar and ping pong table got a workout. Also loved the views from the crows nest - a great way to see sunrise and sunset! Great home."
"This was the best home we have stayed in so far in OBX. 4th time was the Charm Although weather wasn’t our friend we had a great time with family The bedrooms are 2 on each wing as we weren’t sure the layout exactly until we got there. Everyone on the main floor had their own bathroom. The pool was way too cold but hot tub was nice. Due to weather and an infant we spent more time in the house than expected so it was great it was so homey. Kitchen was well stocked I even cooked and so did a daughter in law. Best bed for comfort is the king bed that doesn’t have a private bath. Dining room was awesome for game nights. The crows nest was fantastic. Didn’t have to run to a pier to capture sunsets this trip!!! Extra refrig downstairs is a great touch too.. Things I will tell you that we learned : the WiFi doesn’t allow the baby monitor or Alexa. A special router is needed. My daughter went out and purchased the old fashioned no camera monitor for our stay. No Alexa. The house being raised the small dog escaped the fenced yard by just going under the house. just to help anyone reading this plan better."
Thank you so much for your 5-star review. My wife and I are so happy you enjoyed your vacation. I will install boards under the house so small dogs cannot escape.
"The view is the perfect beach house in every way. The location to the beach, sites and shopping as well as the quiet serenity of the neighborhood. The owners of this property took the time to make everything available and fun for a family vacation. The house itself is laid out to make you feel welcome at home and special. Go swimming in the pool relax in the hot tub or enjoy a game of ping pong while cooking out at the outside cooking area and bar. It has become my families vacation home on the outer banks. You do not want to miss an opportunity to stay at this house. And even better you will have Twiddy Rentals by your side all the way. Thank you for a wonderful vacation again this year."
Thank you for your 5-star review.... and thank you so much for staying at our house.
"The View was amazing! The pictures simply don’t do it justice. This was our best vacation and we can’t wait to come back!"
Thank you so much for your 5 star review. We will always try our best to give you a clean comfortable vacation house.
"Wonderful location and wonderful house. The homeowner has thought of everything to make this home the perfect vacation. I have been looking for a house to rent twice a year for vacation and I have found it. The view is a very special House. The beach is only steps away and the shops are just minutes away."
"We really liked the layout of the house. The pool was very nice with no shade keeping the water warm. The captain’s watch allowed view of the ocean and the sound. It was a very short walk to the beach access."
"Oh what a view it was! My family escaped to the Outer Banks for a week this summer and stayed at the View. We were able to truly enjoy some time together in this beautiful home. The layout is great with an open concept that keeps everyone together but also offers some nooks and crannies for quiet escapes, fewer stairs than the typical OBX beach house was great for my parents and younger children. The walk to the beach is super easy, the boardwalk is right at the end of the street only 2 houses away. The crow's nest was amazing for star gazing and watching the storms come in. The deck is gorgeous and the pool was fantastic. The owners have gone above and beyond to make the home comfortable with real deck furniture, a cool hangout near the pool with a ping pong table and sand volleyball court. The kitchen was well stocked (and labeled!) and the rooms were set up nicely. The only improvements I would recommend are the ice machine in the fridge didn't seem to work very well and another deck above the pool would make this a show stopper :)"
"Great 'beach box' home with a very functional interior layout. Easy and quick beach access."
