We stayed for two weeks at Turtle Time! It was an amazing vacation. The pool and hot tub were great and the rooms were perfect sized and the beds were comfortable! Porch and decks also were a great place to hang out! We loved the house and it’s on a culdesac, and it’s a nice quiet spot!

Steps are the hardest part of living on an island that can be flooded easily. Give us a call next vacation and we will be happy to see if another home may fit your hips and knees better.

Great Family Vacation

Property had all the amenities as listed plus plenty of kitchen itensils. Home is walking distance to the beach and also a quick drive to restaurants, stores and even to drive by the wild horses beach on the other side of town. We had a lot of fun in the pool and jaccuzi. This was our first time in the Outer Banks and we loved it ❤️

We had a wonderful stay because the house had so much we could do due to the weather not cooperating with our plans to spend more time at the ocean!

Nice house

Great kitchen. Enjoyed the pool table and the backyard pool. All very clean. It's a good 15 minute walk to the beach. Internet was out the whole week. Price seemed a little high for location, but I may be out of touch on what things cost. Enjoyed riding bikes with granddaughter to donut shop.

Charlie, so sorry the internet was out during your stay. It does not seem to be repeating the problem. But sounds like it was a sign to do more bike riding and donut eating. Hope to see you all back again.

Great house!

A couple of issues with cleanliness, but not a huge deal. I understand it’s short turnaround and they are short on time. The home was great and roomy. Loved the game room and jacuzzi and pool. Neighborhood was a bit on the noisy side, but it was around a holiday. Would definitely stay again. Kitchen was nicely stocked. Location was in great proximity to parks and grocery stores and off-roading on the beach. Wanted to see the horses again. Saw lots! Just a quick warning. Don’t go into the woods in the back. Quite a bit of poison ivy. Walking distance to the beach. Very convenient.

We woke up everymorning with a family swim in the pool! Restaurants in the area are FANTASTIC! Public beach access is everywhere. Handicap access is a 10min drive away for Nana and Papa. We will be visiting again! Thank you for sharing!

Turtle Time Property

We had an issue with our door code. The house needs a lot of TLC. Decks need a good power wash, the pool area needs cement work, a good cleaning. The house was just surfaced cleaned, no one bothered to take a dry mop under the beds or furniture there were clumps of dog hair.
