Twin Dunes

We loved the location, 2 minutes from Food Lion, by car, 6 minutes walk. 10 minutes to beach, right beside public access, boardwalk. Beware, final dune to beach could be a challenge, if you have mobility issues. Very high, no steps on it. Great ocean views from deck, even though Oceanside, from decks, you can see ocean down to waves coming in. Kitchen was nicely stocked, big. Convection stove. New, stack washer, dryer. Private house, back in the trees. Love Vacasa’s welcome bag. Everything you need. Paper, detergent, dishwasher detergent, soap. Sheets and towels. We picked this house up Friday night for next week stay, great value!

Twin Dunes is a lovely beach house! It had everything we needed and the owners have responded to concerns from previous reviews. The washing machine and sofa seem new. The sliding doors between the two main bedrooms that share a bathroom were a little tricky, but will close properly if done “just so”. The main rooms only have sheer curtains and could use some blinds for privacy. Otherwise we had no complaints and truly enjoyed our stay! We were two couples with two teens and it was a nice size for us. We also appreciated the easy beach access and the hot tub with a view. Thanks for the attention to detail!

House/kitchen is wonderfully stocked. We cooked in every night and the house had everything we needed! All the cookwear is non-stick so if you want to use stainless you will have to bring that. Bring dish towels to use (my mother in law had the brilliant idea of bringing Christmas ones so we always know which are ours). Beds are comfortable! The two queen rooms have east facing windows so if light is bothersome to anyone I recommend bringing black out curtains. Porches are wonderful to hear the waves and see the water. House is on a cul-de-sac so no neighbors directly on either side, feels very private! Love this house and can't wait to come back next year!

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Twin Dunes is a gem. There were plenty of kitchen items -even a crockpot! Lots of furniture throughout the house (couch could use an update and some dining chairs need repairs) but we were impressed with the cleanliness and overall how the home was furnished. The beds were comfortable. I am picky about my pillows and I found the pillows lacking but that was probably just me. There was plenty of space for our family of 7 (5 adults & 2 kiddos / 4 & 6) the view of the ocean is great from the deck and hot tub. The walk to the beach took maybe 4 minutes tops, the boardwalk path is literally across from the driveway. The dune you must navigate to get down to the beach is treacherous for anyone with mobility issues. This was my biggest complaint…not Vacasa or the homes fault.

We loved the view and it was the perfect size for a family of 4. We would definitely book again!

The home was perfect for our family of 4, but could have slept 3+ more easily. The views of the ocean from the top deck were great. Been staying at OBX most of my life and have been to many different home, this was the first one without a pool, we went late in the year so the the cute, clean, cozy set up with a hot tube was perfect for the chilly nights. The hot tub gave us some issues the first few nights with not staying hot enough, the temp kept dropping even with the settings set correctly. We contacted Vacasa and they said they would send someone out but unfortunately they didn’t come until the day we checked out. Thankfully though- with some fiddling with it, and leaving the cover on for 24 hours we got it up to our desired temp. The lights in the hot tub didn’t work but that wasn’t a huge concern of ours. The kitchen was well equipped, bed were comfortable, the only thing I would say I’d change in the home is the front loading washer. Very full of mold around the rubber pieces which is common for that kind of HE loader, also clothes came out musty often, not to mention, with no agitator, they barely get clothes clean. I attempted to clean it and leave door open to help with must smell. The volleyball net downstairs was a nice touch, charcoal grill with sitting area under the house, lots of board games in the living room, lots of beach chairs, boogie boards, etc. We clean and mop every day on our stays so hopefully that made it easier on the cleaning staff. This was a beautiful home, close walk to the beach, would definitely stay again.
