Had a wonderful stay here! We definitely recommend and plan to go back to the turtle pond! Such a beautiful home and perfect for my family members (5 adults and 5 children).
Great vacation with the family! The house was convenient, easy to use and had everything a family of seven needed. We spent our days at the beach which was an easy straight walk down the street.

We love guests. Wish we could be there ourselves more. But glad for other families to enjoy.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. It was a beautiful home away from home!

Got a notification after our stay that we damaged the shower and toilet. I find that hard to believe because I did a full walkthrough and took pictures before we left. Nothing was damaged but couldn’t get the rental insurance payment back. Plus on top of that we even cleaned the whole house even though we had to pay for cleaning.

The claim was the toilet lid in the small bath (broken) and fingernail polish in the shower in the small bath.
The replacement lid was purchased from Ace in Avon and installed by a service tech. The fingernail polish took special effort to remove.
Wonderful property and excellent communication from host. Beautiful location.

When we arrived the grass was overgrown. There were dishes in the sink. A ton of sand and other stuff sticking to your feet as soon as we arrived. No sheets, towels, pillow cases. There were dirty dishes in the cabinets. When I tried to communicate with host he did not seem to care and stopped responding. For what you pay to stay here you’d think they would care more. The cleaning fee is outrageous for how un-clean it was.
Beautiful house with plenty of room for our whole family. Large kitchen and dining area. Covered front porch was great for family bonding and a great place to get ready for the beach. The only thing we wish would have been different was that the grass was very tall and still remained untouched when we left. Overall, would stay again!
The property was great. We didn't realize that you had to bring your own sheets and towels. Owner got us set for the first night and we got our own for the later days. The house is close to the ocean and short drive to Salvo day use area. House had everything for cooking.
The property was great but for someone who's older and has trouble walking it was definitely a change going over the dunes to get to the beach . I took my mom to the beach and she had a hard time with it. We enjoyed staying in home it was just like the pictures show on the listing. This was the first place I have stayed in that would let you smoke on the property. We really enjoyed our stay there.
Fantastic rental. We asked to stay an extra night whilr we were there and the host immediately responded to set that up. Thank you!

The house was roomy and fairly clean. It was walking distance to the beach. The grass was overgrown, appliances were older and had some issues such as the oven caught on fire, some pans had rust, there were no bath or beach towels, no sheets for the beds, no toilet paper, etc.
My wife and I live in Virginia. We have 6 children and numerous grand and great children. We have always loved the Outer Banks so when this property came available we snatched it. It's been a journey of blood, sweat and tears. We gutted the house down to the studs and even moved some of them. The whole family have worked hard to completely remodel what you see today, even replacing the duct work which required getting down and dirty with the underside of the house. All the outside decks have been replaced and a boardwalk added. Future plans include adding a fish cleaning station. We hope you enjoy this house as much as the family and I do. Richard
