We had a wonderful weekend. The home was lovely, clean, quiet. Amenities were good. Kitchen was large and easy to navigate. The bed was comfortable. Very nice bathroom. Loved the screened in porch with rocking chairs to enjoy our morning coffee. Close to shopping, tavern, wine bar/ bakery - these destinations were walkable and lovely to visit. We look forward to visiting again!

Easy stay in great location

Stayed here for one night before camp drop off, plenty of room and super convenient to the town of Oriental. Didn’t get to enjoy much of the stuff around because it was a short day, but the bikes would’ve been loved by all. Hot water, cute house, great location- would gladly stay here again.

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.

About the host

Hosted by Ashley Tointon

Host profile image
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.
