4 adult couples traveled from Northwest Wisconsin to the Wuthering Dunes on a bucket list vacation. We were very satisfied with this home, it was just as advertised, just yards from the ocean. Areca was excellent to work with, quickly responding to our questions when we arrived. She took the time to suggest local attractions and restaurants knowing we didn't want to do too much additional driving! This was a lovely place for a layed back visit to the ocean.

This is a fabulous property. We were five friends over 60 years old so the five bedrooms and wonderful common areas were perfect. The seating was comfortable and plentiful, and it was nice to have a dining table where we all could easily share a meal. More than anything, the decks overlooking the ocean on every level were the highlight. We saw dolphins and one morning half a dozen deer wandered by on the beach. This house has a large, well-equipped kitchen which is good since during off-season there were not many options for dining out. The Food King is within walking distance and there’s an ABC store in Buxton. We found a little seafood market in Hatteras called Harbor Seafood Market that we highly recommend. We also recommend the Cockeyed Clam. It was pricey but the food was fantastic. Areca was wonderful! She made sure we had everything we needed, touched base with us daily and was charming. Withering Dunes more than met our needs. We definitely would consider coming back here.

The location is wonderful. Close to many things. House needs a little TLC. We enjoyed our stay. Girls trip.

The host was very communicative. The home is as described - clean, spacious, beachfront, beautiful, and comfortable. No surprises were encountered, which is what you want when booking over the internet. The beach views are excellent, we even saw a small pod of dolphins! Ample living space for my family to spread out and then come together for food and games. Very convenient location and within walking distance of a grocery store.

Lots of space, beautiful decks, lovely view of ocean, easy access to beach.

The house was very clean & well maintained. It lives up to the pictures online. I don’t think you could be any closer to the ocean. Areca was great! Checked in on us multiple times. My wife and I took our 3 daughters and 4 of their friends. All 17-22. Plenty of room in the house for the 9 of us. This was our 1st trip to the Outer Banks but, it won’t be our last. The beaches are beautiful. The kids swam in the ocean everyday, despite being the end of October. The hot tub was a hit after a swim. The house is Within walking distance to Food Lion grocery store. Not overpriced, well stocked. Couple of restaurants in the same plaza. I would stay at the residence again and would recommend for others George Family

That was the fastest week in my life! I loved taking in the salt air & the crashing surf without ever leaving the house! Of course actually getting in the warm water, literally just steps away, was icing on the cake. Thank you for opening your home to our group; we all enjoyed it tremendously.

The upstairs master bedroom was extremely HOT.

We absolutely loved our stay in Wuthering Dunes. There were plenty of toys, kitchen tools, books and games to entertain us when we got tired of the beautiful views from every window. The communication with Areca was easy and delightful. The location is perfect, you can even walk to go shopping or picking up food by foot. Absolutely recommend it!

We had 10 people ages 3 to 66. We all found something fun to do. All together, smaller groups or alone.

The location of this beach house is absolutely perfect if you want unobstructed views of the beach, and easy access to the nearby stores and restaurants. The 6 adults and 3 kids in our family all managed comfortably in our bedrooms, and loved the open primary floor layout (big kitchen, dining room, and living space) with full ceiling to floor views of the beach.

My family (5 of us) stayed here Memorial Day week. The weather was perfect and hot. Luckily the house has great ac. There was plentiful room and every room has a view. We fished on the beach and went ghost crab hunting at night. A great getaway.

We had a wonderful time, but the house does need a bit of TLC, as far as cleanliness and a few repairs. The layout of the house is great and would accommodate 10 easily.

There were 9 of us (4 adults, 5 kids). The house was plenty big enough to accommodate everyone! We enjoyed sitting on the deck listening to the waves and watching the dolphins swim by, relaxing on the beach and boogie boarding in the surf! The house was located near a grocery store which made it easy to go grab what we needed. The house was clean and provided everything we needed!

My 9 friends and I enjoyed a wonderful weekend in this beautiful home. Pictures just can not do it justice. This home exceeded our expectations.

The house was amazing. Looks exactly as it does in the pictures. Our favorite part was sitting on the deck watching the dolphins each morning.

Our team stayed at this house for a weekend in March for our work retreat. The house was beautiful and had everything we needed. The space was so well laid out and perfect to gather and be social together. We can’t wait to go again!

Looking forward to making reservations next year to this amazing home. Areca Oliff is the Best 😊

Great place to spread out and relax or get to area attractions. The place is a pretty as the pictures, very clean and all amenities available and up to date.

This property was stunning! The house is right on the beach which made for great sunrises. There is plenty of outdoor seating, so just sitting and listening to the waves was very relaxing. There is enough space to comfortably fit 12 people, so our party of 5 had room to spread out. The dishes had quite a few smudges where the dishwasher didn't clean properly, but that was the only negative! There is a grocery store and coffee shops close by, so a quick run to the store was very easy. We would definitely stay here again!

Our group had an absolutely amazing time at this beach house. We did a Friendsgiving beach trip, and it was all that we could ask for. Being right on the ocean was a dream and we thoroughly enjoyed the views and being able to walk right onto the beach. The kitchen was perfect for our group to cook a full Thanksgiving dinner - we had plenty of space to all be working around eachother. It was also really nice to be so close to the grocery store and walking distance to coffee. Overall, we would definitely recommend this house and would love to return.

Perfect place to relax with family and friends

Extremely pleased with our stay. The owners were quick to respond to any questions and even took the time to assist us with an activity we had tried to book. The views were breathtaking. We spent most of our time at the rental because we loved the views so much. Access to the beach was so convenient. Thank you for sharing your property. Would definitely return.

Beautiful spacious oceanfront beachouse. Great location in Avon to access anywhere on Outer Banks. Home was clean with all the amenities. Owner very responsive. Great place to stay for a large group/family!

Loved the house, great location, fantastic stay

Right on ocean, great views, very comforting place. Easy check in. Highly recommended.

Everything was perfect… the description was exactly as stated. Great communication with owner, he even gave us some rainy day ideas.. I wish I could give him a higher rating

Amazing proximity to beach! Very spacious house! Was perfect for our family with ages from 17 to 75. We had a fantastic time!!Very accommodating property contact. Allowed us to have a last min early check in which was awesome. And such a positive way to start our week! Thank you!! Only recommendation for some minor repairs would be around some of the faucet handles, not securely on so had to be careful when turning on water in loft shower and main bath on bedroom level. We would absolutely stay there again!

Beautiful home and area left us wanting more time in the OBX. Communication with property manager was easy and met our needs if we required assistance with anything! Cannot wait to book our next reservations!

We opted for a last minute quick 5 day get away to take away the blues of a cancelled cruise that we were doing for my 50th BD. The dates were flexible and did not need to be 7 days ( ex. Sat-Sat, Sun-Sun) like many places. I am not sure if this is just because it was off season but it worked for our plan. The pictures on VRBO do not do this place justice. It is an open concept but still felt home like. The perks of the balconies on each level with access from each room and outside access from level to level was AWESOME. You could roll out of bed and be on deck in a flash and not disturb anyone else in the house. The loft suite was great. We were there during a full super moon and being able to lay back in bed and star gaze through the windows and have the moonlight in your room was so cool. This was the first visit to OBX/Avon and we are talking of staying here again!The host was very quick with communications via email and while staying through texts. They were on their delayed (stinking virus) honeymoon and still checked in to see if we needed anything. I had also given permission to them to speak with one of the guest coming with me because they were planning a surprise and needed help. He said that the communication was awesome too.Only complaint..my employer wouldn't give anymore vacation time and money to stay there longer once we arrived. LOL

We had a wonderful time during our stay! The house was so beautiful and spacious! Being right on the beach was a great convenience and allowed us to relax and maximize our time with family and friends. We would certainly stay here again!
