"We’ve stayed at this home 3 times now. It fits all of our needs with a large group. Very spacious yet comfortable. There is plenty to do at this home."

Emily   ·  Stayed October 2023

"We loved everything about A Shore Pleasure! We saw horses almost everyday near by. The view from the 3rd floor took my breath away every morning when I woke up."

"Kitchen, ice maker,room arrangement"

Sandra   ·  Stayed October 2023

"The view was spectacular. The bed rooms were great and nicely decorated. Grateful to have use of the elevator as well as additional beach chairs in the shed. Most especially a warm pool! Thank you for sharing your home!"

"A Shore Pleasure was a delightful home for our family. My husband and I, 6 children, 4 spouses, 7 grandkids and one friend found it to perfectly fit our together times as well as more personal private times. The kitchen was exceptionally furnished esp with 3 coffee pots and Keurig 😀. The two dishwashers and extra ice maker were so helpful, and having two large dining tables and two sinks made things so much easier. We loved the warmth of the second floor rec room - it kept us all closer together and had carpet which was helpful with crawling children. Most rec rooms are bottom floor with tile so this floor arrangement was ideal. Of course, watching the morning sunrises off the spacious deck was an extra special blessing. We loved this home so much we rebooked for next year - and we NEVER have done that. Thank you for sharing your home with us."

Heather   ·  Stayed May 2022

"Home is beautiful and layout works well for multiple families. Having the elevator is so helpful for unloading and loading. Also love the pool heat option. Pool was perfect temp! The kitchen has everything you could need, including several regular coffee pots and a Keurig. The separate ice maker in the kitchen is a great bonus! We have thoroughly enjoyed this home for several years now and have no hesitation recommending the house or Twiddy as your vacation rental company. You will not be disappointed!"

"Everything was working, no issues. Made for a relaxing week!"

Valerie   ·  Stayed April 2022

"The layout of home was perfect. I loved that the game room was on middle floor not the lowest level. The upper living area was perfect for watching the dolphins play in ocean."

Rosemary   ·  Stayed July 2021

"Very clean and comfortable. Kitchen was well stocked with dishes, silverware, cookware, etc. All appliances worked wonderfully! Great to have a second full-sized refrigerator and a mini fridge downstairs. Pool, hot tub were nice and outside grill excellent. Everything we needed for a perfect vacation. We will be back!"

Beth   ·  Stayed July 2021

"We loved everything about the house! The location was ideal, it was clean, huge and had everything we needed (esp. a separate ice maker, two dishwashers, wine fridge, 3 crock pots, a griddle, actual beach chairs and many pool chairs). If you've rented in OBX before, having these extras makes a big difference. Best of all, the water was drinkable!"

Meghan   ·  Stayed May 2021

"We loved our stay! Everyone agreed this was our favorite home so far! The house was very clean and spacious. Kitchen was well stocked. The pool and hot tub were great and an easy walk to the beach. Horse Happy Hour was a definite plus! The decks have plenty of seating and perfect for cocktails and sunrises. Wish we could have stayed longer and we will absolutely be booking this place in the future!"
