Ocean Isle Beach is famous for Sea Turtle Nests, and this home is located right by a famous restaurant, The Sugar Shack, so we felt it appropriate to call this home THE TURTLE SHACK. Someday we will count all of the Turtles located all over this property.

Yes, we advertise that this home "Sleeps 8," and it definitely can and does. 2 queen beds, 2 twin beds, and a sleeper sofa. However, please keep in mind that the home is about 1000 square feet total. If 8 fully grown adults showed up for a week with 8 fully grown suitcases, then it will absolutely be a little cramped. The ideal amount of humans for this size space is probably 6, but it will fit 8, especially if some of those people are not fully grown adults.

Very good

We decided last minute to take a weekend at the beach with our kids and granddaughter and Turtle Shack gave us a great place to stay! The location was great and the neighborhood was quiet! Thank you!
Just want to start out by saying, we are at the beach 8-10 times year for golf and weekend trips. We have stayed in numerous condos and resorts, and I enjoyed this house as much as anything. Nice location in ocean isle beach, close to everything and still quiet. House was clean, spacious and had everything you need to enjoy a vacation.. Loved the place.. THANKS!

Dated and NOT CLEAN
The location is great, however the house is extremely dated and needs a lot of upgrades to charge the price for this place.
Limited kitchen item, towels, and general supplies.
The house was very very dirty, pet hair on the beds, dusty, bathrooms were not clean, and one of the bedrooms smells like cat urine. I sent pictures of all the issues and was just told “I will tell the cleaning staff”, no apology, no offerer to make it right. Please save your money, DO NOT STAY HERE.

We're sorry that your refund attempt did not go as planned. This guest began complaining about things as soon as they booked, as soon as they checked in, and carried on throughout their 1-night last minute stay that they got a ridiculous discount on. Unfortunately for this guest, we happened to be in the house earlier that day for some routine maintenance (air filters, etc) after the cleaners had set up the home. We always conduct a thorough inspection and we know for a fact that all of these complaints were manufactured and staged in an attempt to get some money off of their trip. That may work with some hosts sometimes, but these people picked the wrong property on the wrong day to try something like that. If we hadn't personally been in the house right before they checked in, we may have believed some of it and come down on our cleaners for not doing their job. However, you can see that we have hundreds of reviews across many booking platforms across several properties, that mention how clean our houses are. We pride ourselves on providing clean homes for every guest, every reservation, at every property.

Sandy sheets, misleading listing details, passive aggressive host, fees to check in early. Terrible host but actually a really great house and location. I never asked for any kind of refund from these people at any point in time. I asked about early check in/late checkout and they said yes for a fee, which I declined. There was sand in 2 of the beds sheets and when I told the host, they said that sand in places was normal. We ended up with 6 guests for one night and I let them know. Still under the 8 person limit. I was charged an extra 50, which is fine but they charged me for both nights not just one. Then my daughter pointed out the beds were different. She swore there were 2 queens, 2 twins and a sleeper sofa. I pulled the listing and sure enough, she was right. But there were 3 queens. Some people thought they were getting their own beds but they had to share. I pointed out to the host that the listing was misleading because I booked expecting 4 separate beds, not 3. I would have picked something else had I known. They said they changed the beds months ago. Ok well then change the listing. Then the manager sent me multiple messages making accusations such as “we got a good sense of how this is going to go when you asked for early check in/late check out and started complaining as soon as you arrived.” They referred to themselves as “we must be so stupid and not know how to run a business.” Really terrible experience but the house was in a great location.
La secadora no sirve los sartenes y cazuelas bastante viejos y susios el anfitrión muy grosero iva. Con mi familia y mis mascotas una shituz y un PITBULL y no leí bien q no aceptaban PITBULL me amenazo que si no sacaba al perro el iría con la policía a sacarme ami y a mi familia de tal manera que asustó amos hijos y por esa razón mis vacaciones no fueron como lo avía pensado ni mi estancia en ese lugar

I'm sorry, we can't read that. We can see that you put PITBULL in all caps though. This guest showed up with 4 total dogs including a pitbull, which is explicitly against the house rules. No pitbulls ever, along with a bunch of other restricted breeds. The guest seemed extremely surprised and upset when we told them they were not allowed to have a pitbull on the property at any time. Then at checkout, our cleaners had to clean up a world-class record-breaking mess, with trash and grime left behind in every part of the house and all over the yard. Thanks for breaking every rule possible and then leaving us a 1 star review about it. Not welcome back.
My friends and I had a wonderful time at the Turtle Shack! We came to town for a fishing trip for a couple of days, but would definitely rent this home for a week! It is exactly as described and we loved it! It was very clean and had everything we needed! Thank you for allowing us to stay!

I'm a turtle lover too! Thanks for being such a great guest! We'd love to host you again! Come back soon!
First and foremost, the host, Brandon McLean is a pleasure to deal with. He was quick and accurate with his response to any questions that came up. The Turtle Shack was spotlessly clean and well stocked with all necessities. Beds and furniture were comfortable and more than adequate for our 5 night stay. We look forward to staying again.

Thank you so much for your kind words, and we are so glad you had a great experience with us. Please come back anytime!
The property was clean and accommodating. Even though the property is next door to a restaurant, the restaurant was only open from late afternoon until about 9 PM, so very quiet.

Thanks so much and you are welcome back any time. Yes the restaurant is famous and delicious too :)
This house does not sleep 8 adults comfortably. It’s ideal for a family with children. Great location, love Sugar Shack! The shower off the kitchen is teeny tiny, and kitchen itself is very small. Hard to get in through the door from the carport, as you are walking straight into the washing machine. Owner is easy to communicate with. Mattresses are very hard and not comfortable in our opinion.

We have been doing this long enough to know when a guest is trying to scam us for unwarranted refunds and discounts, and we could smell this one from a mile away. This person booked a clearly-advertised 3 bedroom approximately 1000-square-foot "SHACK" for 8 adults. And yes, while we do have room for 8 humans to sleep, it is definitely a tight space if all 8 of those humans are fully grown adults. This guest booked the home almost 2 months in advance, with ample time to Google the address, re-examine the accurate photos and listing text where it clearly describes this home as a 1000 square foot shack with 4 total beds and a sleeper sofa. She complained about irrelevant items upon arrival, during their stay, and at departure. Tried to accuse us of not having any towels in the home before looking in the linen closet to find 10 towels. On the last day, she sent a message demanding an explanation for every line item on their VRBO bill that was sent to them by VRBO almost two months prior to their stay, which had a very generous 100% cancellation policy. On the last day, she sent a text admitting that they did in fact have a really great time at our house, and gently hinted at us sending some or all of her money back in exchange for a nice review. We call this "review extortion" and we're sorry we don't play those games.
We had a wonderful time at the Turtle Shack. It was clean and perfect for two families.
The Turtle Shack was clean and close by everything. The splash pad and park was near by and it was a quick drive to the beach. We would love to come back. The owner was prompt with messages. We had no issues.

"House is exactly as described and allows easy access to public beaches with short drive. Great place to stay with plenty of room and very clean."
"Great location (across from Lowes’ Foods and across from a cute Jamaican restaurant)! It was a three-four minute drive to the beach, so that was great, too. The TV has a Roku, so it was nice to have access to streaming services while there. The bedrooms were a good size and the living room area was a nice size, too. The kitchen had all the basics, plus a few extras. The hosts were always very quick to respond-I really appreciated their attentive communication. We enjoyed our stay!"
