  Irene's Turning Point is a wonderful getaway that my family and I enjoyed this past summer. Her home is well maintained. The views of the canal, especially at sunset, were amazing. Thank you so much for use of the kayak! We were comfortable all week and cannot wait to come back and visit again! This is a definite recommend!

  We love this place. Immediately upon arrival we felt at home and the house is quite spacious and perfectly equipped. Whether paddling around the sound, crabbing off the dock or just relaxing on the deck this place is perfect. Anyone looking for a nice place to stay slightly off the beaten path I highly recommend Turning Point. We are looking forward to our return.

  I stayed at the Turning Point this past July and was thrilled beyond all of my expectations! This is a very clean and well maintained house with spacious rooms. The Great room has sliding glass doors spanning across the entire back displaying a beautiful view of the canal and dock. Every morning, I relaxed on the dock, enjoyed my coffee, and threw a line in the water until it was time to head to the beach. At night I’d kick back on the deck and admire a truly breathtaking view of the stars. The house is located in a people/pet friendly neighborhood that is a hop, skip, and jump to the beach access, restaurants, grocery stores and the ferry. The owner is extremely knowledgeable and accessible via emails/phone, ensuring your vacation is as relaxing and enjoyable as possible. Overall, this house was a winner and certainly made my vacation one to remember. I highly recommend the Turning Point…see you next year!

  My husband & I stayed here as a home base to our week of fishing. The house sits on a canal on the sound side and offers nice sunsets. I would recommend make up trips at Hatteras Harbor Marina if you want some offshore fishing. We had our catch cleaned and vacuum packed right at the dockand brought home our catch. The owner was great and offered suggestions for things to do. We shopped at Conners Market and got some great rib eye steaks to grill and the guy at Frisco Bait & Tackle can hook you up with license & bait. The Miss Hatteras boat would be a good bet to bring kids for a half day of fishing- the Captain and Mate were great with kids- made them feel really special.

  Upon arriving at Turning Point we immediately felt comfortable. Roomy, well stocked kitchen, open living room area with lots of light, it was perfect for us. Everything was clean and tidy and we spent a good deal of time cooking in the spacious kitchen. The stargazing was as advertised and we witnessed some lovely sunsets over the sound while relaxing on the deck. Irene was quite helpful leading up to and during our visit. We are very much looking forward to returning next year.

  Our stay at Turning Point was wonderful. When we arrived the house was clean. It is very open and spacious. We comfortably fit 4 adults and 3 teenagers. This was probably the most relaxing vacation we have ever had! The owner was very helpful in letting us know about things to do in the area and when was the best time to do them. We will definately be back. The house is located in close proximatey to the beach, the lighthouse and to the marina's. My husband has never cared for the beach but being at Turning Point and the Outer Banks has changed his mind on the beach!

  We stayed at TP for 6 weeks while we were transferring to TX for work. It was great! The home was just as described, very clean and peaceful. It had everything we needed for our stay. Our dogs enjoyed the experience as well. It is very quiet on the "sound" and the stars are amazing. There is plenty of room and we never ran out of visitors during our stay. We did alot of crabbing right off the deck and the beaches were some of the best we have been on. Ocracoke is a very nice day trip and a great place to go shelling. The owner was very accomodating and full of helpful information. We can't wait to come back to OBX and enjoy all the area has to offer. If you are looking for somewhere to get away and relax this is it!

  These are the ways Turning Point is cool: Big, open, well-lit living space that goes all the way to the roof in the living and dining areas. Spacious bedrooms upstairs and down with plenty of windows. Lots of cabinets and counter space in a bright, open kitchen, including an island to which people can pull up stools and have drinks while kibitzing with the cooks. Expansive decks, one of them screened-in, overlooking a scenic canal, where you can fish and crab or watch large birds do the same. There’s a dock with a fish table where you can get your catch ready for the kitchen. Bring your boat to the dock and you can follow the canal a short distance out to the Pamlico Sound. The whole arrangement is elevated a good distance above the ground, which provides a good view of the canal and the neighborhood, from the decks or through the sliding glass doors from the couch. It’s located in Brigands' Bay, a quiet neighborhood a short distance from shopping, restaurants and public beach access. Get ready to relax. Joe and Suzanne Louisville KY
