Great location in lovely costal town

The house overall was perfect for our family. Everyone had their own bedrooms, with the kids upstairs giving us all some room. The dogs loved the great big back yard. The location was perfect, so close to town, it was easy and fun to bike to the park and coffee shop daily. We hit the foods trucks across the street at the brew pub for easy meals. Overall it was a terrific stay, we love Oriental and hope to stay at this property again.

Perfect getaway!

We had the best time during our stay in oriental. The house was clean and had everything we needed. It was very cozy and plenty of space for our family (4 adults 4 kids). The “secret closet with kids toys really made this place magical for our kiddos and was a lovely surprise. We especially enjoyed the screened in porch, option to ride bikes and the proximity to the waterfront and coffee shop. We hope to return!

Perfect Getaway with Charm, Comfort, and a Great Yard for Dogs!

We had a wonderful 3-day stay at this charming 1930s home in Oriental, NC. The house was clean, cozy, and well maintained—perfect for a relaxing getaway. We especially loved the screened-in patio where we enjoyed morning coffee, the super comfortable bed, and the beautiful, spacious yard. The fenced-in area was a huge plus for our dogs, who had just as much fun as we did! Communication with Ashley was smooth and easy, and check-in was a breeze. We’d absolutely stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Ashley Tointon

My brother David and I were willed our grandparents home when our father passed away in 1996. We rent it selectively so we can keep the place in the family.

Why they chose this property

This property was home to our great grandparents, our grandparents and is where our father grew up. We spent a lot of time there and continue to have wonderful memories there with our own families. With the numerous songbirds, 100 year old pecan trees and the original tin roof, you may want to stay a while.

What makes this property unique

Much of the furnishings are original pieces and photos of the Pugh family are scattered in the home. It is a special place and we welcome you to make your own memories there. It is a peaceful place and very relaxing. Use of the cruiser bikes is a wonderful benefit. Riding around the town on a bike is the best way to see it.
