Family fun

Great time with family. Close enough to the beach, short walk. Our 4 year Olds had no problem with the walk. House had everything we needed. Enjoyed the main big room. Pool was refreshing before and after the beach.

Fun times

House was clean, any questions were answered quickly. Pool area and hot tub were clean. Close to the beach, stores and other activities. Though houses are near by we did not feel we were on top of anyone. We will definitely be back!

Great location, great place!

This place is located in a great spot! Block from the beach, walking distance to plaza full of stores... including a grocery store. Property owners were very responsive by text. Everything was clean when we arrived. Our family LOVED IT!!

Worth staying

We enjoyed staying at Turtle Tracks. We found some small minor issues like tv remote batteries dead in one remote. Poolside basketball hoop broke or appeared to break for us. Had a lot of rust where it broke. The house was clean. The kitchen is very very well equipped! The only negative I have for it is the bathroom layouts. The best bathroom is not attached to a bedroom. Does not seem to really have a master bedroom. We chose the 3rd floor bedroom but looking back, should have used the 2nd floor, 2nd bedroom on left. It has a small bathroom within the bedroom and is right next to the nicest bathroom. Shuffleboard, pool and hot tub all were fun to use.

Good value

Property Manager was great to deal with. Cleanliness was below average. Appliances and house overall could use updating. Overall good value for the price.

Wonderful Surprise!!!

We had read the great reviews but still it was wonderful to see it for ourselves. The house is very clean (which is always a big deal for me). Modern touches everywhere yet not forbidding. This is the first kitchen I’ve enjoyed cooking in better than my own:). Thank you for a great experience.

Excellent Experience

We’ve been coming to the Outer Banks for over 30 years, and this has been one of our best experiences. The house was extremely clean, very well equipped, very well managed. Every time I thought wouldn’t.... be nice to have it was there! Well thought out! Wonderful location!

Everything about this house is great. Well stocked kitchen made cooking meals a breeze. Comfy beds. The spare fridge was a lifesaver. Super close and easy access to the beach.

Beautiful Home and Location

The house was perfect for our two families of 4 each totaling 4 adults and 4 children ages 11-6. It was very clean and well supplied with linens, kitchen supplies, some beach chairs, pool chairs, etc. We really enjoyed it being so close to the beach that we could walk. The kids also loved the pool and hot tub. Multiple rooms with TVs was great because at night we had options to watch movies, the kids played video games and even had board games the boys played. We had a great time in Corolla and would definitely stay again!

Great vacation!

We have just returned from a week's visit at Turtle Tracks. The accommodation was perfect for our group (two families). The property was extremely clean, spacious and the kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed. There was plenty of space and enough bedrooms/bathrooms to accommodate us all. The walk to the beach was great and just a few minutes walk away. We loved using the pool after a day at the beach and the shops and amenities were closeby. We look forward to returning to this property again soon.

Perfect for our needs!

We had the pleasure of staying at Turtle Tracks from Aug 20-27th, 2017. We were very pleasantly surprised by not only it's location, but the size, accommodations and cleanliness of the home! We made use of all of the fantastic amenities from the pool & jacuzzi, to the shuffle board and basketball hoop. We also enjoyed the beautiful view to the ocean by just stepping right outside the living room sliding doors to the deck, A deck that was just as beautiful at night while star gazing. Property management was amazingly helpful with all our needs. We've been visiting OBX for years now and our stay at Turtle Tracks was without question one of our best visits yet.

Nice house in a good location

The house fully met expectations. It has good quality furniture, a nice layout, was fully equipped and well maintained. The location is a super easy walk to the beach and a not bad stroll to shops and restaurants. We enjoyed the pool, hot tub and outdoor shuffle board. And the rental company was excellent. Easy check in and out and lots of clear communication. Would recommend this company and this house

Great home for our family vacation

Our vacation group included 8 adults and 3 children (ages 5, 2, and 2). The Captains Watch was a perfect area for the three kids to call their "own" as they turned it into a play room - and it was nice for the toys to be out of sight for the rest of us! The kitchen was nice and fully equipped with anything you could possibly need - the view out to the pool was awesome. The dining room was tight though! If you plan to have a lot of sit down meals and bring more than 8 adults, you may want to reconsider; the table was almost too big for the space and we couldn't get as many people around it as we would have liked. There are other areas for dining (covered table outside on the patio or at the breakfast counter), so if that works for you, this house would be great. The pool was great (until we got attacked by ticks) and it was literally a 3 minute walk to the beach! I would recommend this house for families with children ages 5+. There are a lot of narrow stairs, which we obviously expected and the bedrooms became pretty small when you added a pack-n-play to them!
