"The location, the elevator went to the ground floor and was accessible, the ice maker"
"We have always loved Dune Maker - the Ice machine is a great bonus and the home as a lot of rooms for you to bring the whole family. The heated pool is also a wonderful amenity for late summer vacationers and of course the allowance for our dogs is also a big plus. We love to travel with our pets and Twiddy homes allow us to do that."
"The house and its features/amenities are great for families with kids and dogs!"
"The home was very clean and provided two stoves, two refrigerators and two dishwashers which was perfect for the size of the family that fits in the home!! We loved staying there and will book again through Twiddy. Twiddy has been great and I have worked with them for 12 years now."
Thank you so much for visiting our home and for leaving the great feedback. The house has been a labor of love for us, and it is special when our guests love it to. We look forward to hosting you again!
"This was one of our best vacations yet!! The house was utterly perfect for our family. The beds were comfortable! The kitchen had everything we needed, 2 sinks, 2 fridges, 2 dishwashers! The pool was huge and the views from the deck and bedrooms were beautiful. The deck furniture was great too, usually its old wooden chairs and you can tell they have updated them. We had a lot of fun nights on that deck! The only thing I have to say is the water smelled like sulfur really bad and so did the ice in the ice maker BUT we still used it for our drinks. We were not able to use the water dispenser that the house advertises because no stores around had any water jugs in stock! We just got tons of bottled water. We would highly recommend this house and will be staying again!!"
Thank you so much for choosing our home, and we are so happy that you enjoyed your vacation there. We love our home too, for all of the reasons you mention, and we are always looking to make upgrades. We are so sorry that you had issues is the water. It is a constant battle out in the 4x4, and we have been working to solve it - in fact, we just had an all new system installed last year. It is very disappointing to hear that it is still an issue, but we will keep trying for the solve, and we appreciate your suggestions. We look forward to hosting you again!
"Everything double fridge stove dishwasher ice machine"
Thanks for staying in our home, and for your recommendation. We hope you'll be back again.
"Everything!"
Thanks for staying at our home, and for your recommendation. We've put a lot of work into our home recently and will keep doing that, so please come back again!
"We all loved this house. The owners definitely take great pride in maintaining their house. The new maintenance/upgrades were nice. We peaked at the house outside last yr before we left lol. We are looking forward to staying again in 2026. This house seemed noise proof to other areas of the house. That's nice with 9 people in the house. This was also the 1st yr we had a fabulous sand free walk way to the beach. Thank you again"
Thank you for the great review. We are so glad that you enjoy our home - it has been a labor of love and we're always looking for ways to enhance the home and your stay there. We are thrilled to have you back again next year!
"This home is well cared for and there are constant updates that improve the overall experience. Some of our favorite things about this home; the ocean views, boardwalk, heated pool, elevator, game room, the spacious kitchen! Foot washing station, gas grill, outdoor seating, new deck under the pergola. Too much to list here! Looking forward to returning in 2026!"
Thanks so much for returning to our home, and for noticing and appreciating the updates. It was a busy off-season for us! We are so glad you enjoy the home for all the same reasons we do. We look forward to hosting you again in 2026.
"The boardwalk from the house to the beach was fantastic. The house was ample size for my large family to reside comfortably. the front row seat view of the ocean was terrific."
Thanks for your review and recommendation. Fall in OBX is the BEST! We love our home, and are always thrilled when our guests appreciate it, as you did. We are always working to make it even nicer, so look forward to an even better Dune Maker in 2025! So glad you'll be back!
"Dune Maker is a great home! The heated pool (that was actually warm!!!!), the ice maker, and the walkway to the ocean were just a few of the highlights. The home also has a great layout and plenty of master bedrooms. We will be back!"
Thank you so much for your review and recommendation. We love our home, work hard to keep it nice and comfortable, and really hope our guests feel the same. Come back anytime! We are always trying to make it even nicer, so you'll have something to look forward to next year!
"just a great house all around, nice enough that its a vacation home but not so nice where we walk on egg shells trying not to disrupt the perfection. access to the beach is the best and sunrises with a cup of coffee are unreal"
You've gotta love the sunrises!! How many pictures have we taken of sunrise over the years... each one prettier than the last! Thank you so much for your review and detailed suggestions. It is great to hear from our guests, as we are always trying to improve our home, keeping it fresh but also comfortable. It is a labor of love for us and also a challenge to keep everything nice in that harsh beach environment and with so many guests coming through. We SO appreciate your consideration while you're at the house and that you've been repeat guests, and really hope you can find a way to come back soon. We are always making upgrades and some major ones this year.
"The home was spacious and had plenty of master bedrooms. The pool was so nice and we loved having two hot-tubs and an outdoor shower & foot rinse station to get the sand off after the beach. The owners have really thought of everything as far as having a private walkway right out to the beach and a spot to hold everybody's beach chairs so that you don't have to carry them all the way back in each day. The kitchen was large and spacious and made cooking a breeze. The kids bunk room and game room kept the children entertained and we loved all the deck furniture so that we could sit outside. We loved being able to see the wild horses and they frequently visited the Dune Maker. Overall, we throughly enjoyed our stay and we would definitely visit again!"
Thank you so much for your detailed and thoughtful review. We are thrilled that you enjoyed the house - we love it, and hope that our guests do too. So glad that the horses visited - it's always a treat to see them, especially silhouetted on the beautiful dunes. The house is a labor of love for us, and always a work in progress as we try to keep it updated and fresh in a harsh environment. We are always pleased to get feedback, so thanks for your specific suggestions. The kitchen inventory does take a beating... we now laugh at the tuperware situation - each spring we leave all new and when we return in the fall everything we left is gone and pieces we don't recognize fill the cabinets! We hope you'll come back and see our upgrades over the years!
"The pool, hot tub, deck going to beach."
Greetings from Dune Maker! We are so glad that you enjoyed the house, and that you're coming back in 2025. You'll see some upgrades that we hope you like. This house has been a labor of love and work in progress for us, and we're always pleased when our guests love it too.
"The icemaker was a huge plus! Nice ocean views with an easy walk to the ocean."
Thanks for the positive review. We are so glad you enjoyed our home. We continue to make upgrades, and hope you'll be back next year, too!
"Clean. Close to ocean and can see the view of ocean. Saw the wild horses. Ice machine. Hot tub. I had a problem with cold water-and it was promptly taken care of with a new hot water tank. The pool was wonderful size, clean."
Thanks so much for your review and comments. We are so glad you enjoyed our home. We are always making updates and improvements - e.g. we resurfaced the pool this spring, so it's better than ever. We hope you'll be back again soon!
"Always a great place to vacation"
Thank you for the recommendation and for your suggestions. We are so glad that you like the house, and sorry that you had some issues. We did replace a water heater recently, so hopefully that won't be an issue in the future. We will look in to the TV situation... it might have to do with the wifi, which can be spotty out on the 4x4, especially when it is very crowded. We hope you'll be back next year!
"The home is located beautifully just a small walkway to the beach. It has numerous king beds and a spacious kitchen. There are two refrigerators a professional coffee maker and an ice maker. The house had some upgrades down this year that made a nice home even nicer. Looking forward to what upgrades will continue."
Thanks so much for your recommendation and also for your suggestions. This house is always a work in progress and labor of love. We are glad you enjoyed your time here and look forward to hosting you again. p.s. Generally the pool is not heated in July/August, but if it is too cold to swim, perhaps we can make it happen next time you're down.
"access to the beach, pool, hot tubs, decks, privacy, double kitchen"
"We loved the set up. We had a few older family members traveling with us who are unsteady, and they had lots of opportunities to join us around the pool and on the sand thanks to the walkways and elevator access."
Thank you so much for the review. We are glad you liked our home and found it accessible. We are always making improvements, and appreciate your suggestions for making the house even better and more family friendly. We hope you'll be back next year!
"Abundance of room and ample amenities for a large group."
Thanks so much for the review - we are glad that you found our home comfortable and we hope you'll be back! We are constantly updating and improving the property, and so we appreciate your suggestions and feedback.
"Elevator. Two hot tubs. Swimming pool. Ample space. Big kitchen. Easy walk over the dune to the beach."
Thank you so much for your review and for your comments. We are so glad you enjoyed our home - despite the weather. We take all suggestions to heart and are always looking for ways to make your next stay even better. Hope to see you again!
"Location, big pool, nice hot tub and lots of king master bedrooms."
"The 9 bedrooms are configured just right for our family! The kitchen is perfectly stocked. The new deck furniture is great and the view is awesome!!"
Judy, thanks so much for your great feedback. We're so glad you enjoy our home, and happy you're seeing the upgrades as they happen.
"Another amazing year at the Dune Maker making sunrise and sunset memories with our beach fam!"
Misty, thanks for the great review. We hope you'll be back next year, and the next.
"Beautiful house right on beach. Enough space for everyone and beautiful sunsets! Twiddy was right on the ball if there was a problem. Would recommend this house very highly!"
Judi, thanks for the positive review and the suggestions. We really love our home, too - you can't beat the location or the sunrise. We hope you'll get back next year!
"Large house, suitable for family get-together. Great location."
"The home was well laid out and had plenty of kitchen amenities for preparing and storing food. The large outdoor upper deck was wonderful for taking in the view. By all accounts the beds were very comfortable."
"3 families. 6 adults. 6 kids 6 and under, 1 infant. Had a total blast. Perfect for us, no complaints at all. Views and weather were amazing, horses hanging around every day. Double kitchen is the best thing we could have asked for and having the pool to come back to after a long day on the beach made it the perfect vacation. Cant wait for next year."
Thank you so much for the great review and for appreciating our home, which we love too! So glad the weather and the horses cooperated during your visit!
"The location and size are perfect for our family! We appreciate the well stocked kitchen too. The house is a little old and saggy but like that they are gradually working on it. Would love to have the game room with more comfy seating so that the kids could actually have another space to hang out together vs the living room, just a comment."
Thanks for the review and your complements and suggestions. We are so glad you enjoy the house. It is a labor of love for us and we will continue to make improvements each year. Some of the work we've done is behind the scenes (new roof, new HVAC and vents, etc.) and we've recently redone all the floors and most of the decks, gotten new mattresses and updated furniture. More to come, so we're glad to see you'll be back next year!
"The views from this house are gorgeous. The house has plenty of room for several families to spread out. Two of everything in the kitchen was great except one of the ovens didn’t work. The commercial ice maker is the best thing ever. I almost wish all the twiddy homes in the 4x4 area would have this amenity. The beds were comfortable and everything seemed cleaned. They do need to restock the kitchen with a few more cooking utensils especially having two stoves and a few more Tupperware containers. The house of this size with many people would need more of those. The bedrooms on the upper floor, have no TVs. While I understand we have the best views from there, a TV in those rooms would have been nice. Overall the house is good. I would go back again in the future."
Thanks for your review, the complements and suggestions. Our home is a labor of love, and we've been working hard to make it great for all of our guests. For example, all the king and queen mattresses are brand new, and I'm glad you found them comfy. So sorry if the kitchen wasn't as well stocked as you'd like ... when we leave before the season starts, we ensure there is plenty of everything, including brand new sets of tupperware! Over the weeks we realize that things are damaged.
"I think any home on the 4x4 beach where the horses come up to the house awesome and this house was just that. Loved the walkway and access to the beach also."
Thanks so much for the review and the complements. We are so glad that you had a nice time at our home and that the horses came to visit! We hope you'll be back!
"This is my second time staying in this house and will be staying another week later this summer. The house is beautiful and has everything you need. It was clean. The views are beautiful. The kitchen is spacious with a commercial size ice machine which is amazing. The two hot tubs are a huge hit! They can comfortably sit everyone. Only downside is the pool is not heated and it was very cold, understandably so since the weather isn’t warm enough yet to heat it. The upgrades in the game room are very nice as well."
Thank you so much for the kind review and complements. We are so glad that you love our house - we do too! As you can see, we've been working to upgrade the house itself (the views and location couldn't be beat!) We hope you'll be our guest again! p.s. there is a pool heater for a additional cost... next time let Twiddy know and we can get it heated up for you
"The home suited our needs just great! The kitchen set up was perfect and really appreciated the pro ice maker too! The upgrades that have been done were great and hope that the shower stalls will be next on the list!!"
Jody, we are so glad that you enjoyed our home and hope you and your group had a great vacation on the glorious 4x4! We've done a number of upgrades, which we're glad you noticed, and more to come. Bathrooms are on the list!
"Great layout and amenities in the house. Water in hot tubs were brown and dirty when we got there. Needed to be cleaned the day after. House did not have enough power to heat hot tubs and pools as advertised."
Ross, thank you for taking the time to write a review, and we're glad that you appreciate the house overall. We're sorry about the issues you had with the hot tubs and electricity. I hope you'll give Dunemaker another try!
