Retreat at Turtle Pond SS109

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Get away from it all and reconnect with friends and family here at Retreat at Turtle Pond, an adorable home tucked in a quiet area of Southern Shores with only one neighbor and located right across the street from Duck Woods Country Club. Each day can begin on a tasty note with a cup of coffee in hand as you look out to the pond from the furnished deck. When days heat up, launch the three provided kayaks into the pond and soak up some sweet vitamin D. There is a community marina for boats! If you are looking to indulge in a classic beach day on sugar-white sand, you better take advantage of having access to a private beach (passes provided). And, when it is time to relax under the colors of legendary sunsets, the gas grill and picnic tables will be waiting to host summer cookouts until the stars come out! There are community tennis courts available if you feel like practicing your swing.

Inside, everyone can spread out with ease in the single-story layout. The living area features vaulted ceilings, a fireplace, plush furnishings, and a mounted flatscreen TV with streaming capabilities, so kicking back for a ballgame with the whole gang will be a breeze. Step into the full kitchen when hunger strikes and whip up anything from a snack to a four-course meal on modern appliances. The adjacent dining area has plenty of room for everyone to gather for formal meals and game nights, yet there will be no better place to end the day than outside under starry skies.

This is your sign to take that long-awaited getaway, so book your stay at Retreat at Turtle Pond while it lasts!

Perfect Location to beach, stores plenty of amenities. Beautiful view around the house and in the back yard seeing the canal. We felt at home staying here. We would stay here again and would recommend to others.

Very nice and quiet area. House was very accommodating for cooking and entertainment. Having Roku on every TV was a bonus and we really enjoyed the grill and big yard. Also, great AC in the house as well.

The location was the best thing about this home. Perfect for anywhere you want to go on the Outer Banks. It was spacious and accommodated our group of 8 very well. Note that the home does not have a dishwasher even though pods were left on the kitchen counter by house keeping. There were only 4 forks so we had to ask for more which the management company dropped off the next day. We also had to ask for more washcloths because we each were provided one for our stay. There was also only one trash bag for the kitchen trash can. A few minor things but overall the stay was pleasant.

The Retreat at Turtle Pond was a welcome break from the busy rentals we've stayed at before in the OBX. Tucked away in a secluded wooded area in Southern Shores we enjoyed the peace and quiet offered by this lovely home. It was directly next door to great golf and walking trails. We fully took advantage of the private beach access and reservable pickleball courts. The kitchen was stocked with plenty of cookware and even tupperware for our leftovers from the many restaurants in close proximity. We loved how close it was to three grocery stores as well! We will definitely be back!

Beautiful home close to OBX beaches. Check in went smoothly and home was clean and as advertised. Close to the grocery store and beach. It was nice to be at the beach but away from the sand. We will rent from y’all again. Thank you for a great vacation!

This property was an amazing stay for us. Plenty of room for a large family or extended family. Close enough to any stores and the beach, but away from the tourists hustle and bustle. Will definitely stay again.

The size & layout of the house was as listed. However, the house was not clean, there were two bags of laundry laying in front of the steps to the house, cobwebs in several places & clutter everywhere, there was a light switch and outlet in the living room missing plates, trash under the furniture & beds, floors were not clean. Lid to trash can was broken and the toilet seat in the master bathroom was cracked. We did not have a parking pass for the private access to the beach nor were bikes available as listed. We contacted Vacasa rentals & provided pictures. They sent someone out to clean while we were out having lunch. It was slightly cleaner when we returned but trash still under furniture. Darren, a Vacasa employee dropped by mid-week to drop off a quilt. My husband showed him the missing light switch and outlet covers and the laundry laying in front of the house. Darren picked up the laundry and the came back later that day to replace the missing plates and brought over the parking passes that we were told on Tuesday we have to drive 30 minutes away to Corolla to pick up. On a scale of 1-5, I would give Vacasa 3 stars, but I would give Darren 5+.

The house is as pictured in the listing and was fine, but the cleaning was subpar upon check in. House was full of cobwebs and spiders and not in hard to reach areas to clean either. Dishes in cabinets were dirty, several outlets did not work in the house either

Central AC is great, and the kitchen is well-stocked. Very quiet, spacious home that made it very comfortable for me to stay in (I was alone). ⚠️ No dishwasher exists, so be prepared to hand wash and dry a lot of dishes if you have a large group. Light bulbs and batteries in TV remotes were dead, so hopefully Vacasa management tests and replaces all bulbs/batteries before next guest.

We absolutely loved this space! It's laid out well for a larger family group looking for a quiet, tranquil space. A few things we would note for the owners-the electrical system is strange. We had a hard time figuring out what switches went to what. Several lamps did not work. A few that did work would come on and then flicker on and off. The TV in the living room would connect and then disconnect at periods throughout the weekend. My husband believes that was due to the Roku being older and a simple upgrade may fix it. Also, the lamp at the end of the driveway does not work and it would have come in handy at night as the driveway is very easy to miss. All in all, those are just small things that we wanted to make the owners aware of but not things that inconvenienced our stay. We have this space saved for future visits!

Lovely home! Kitchen was amazing and it was quite spacious. Cool location for our first leg of the trip. A little disappointed that the bikes all had flat tires and the pond was a little grimey but that's summer ponds for ya. Overall, great place to stay.

We loved the retreat at Turtle Pond. It was quiet, comfortable, and exactly as described. Not only that, but most things that we needed were completely furnished and there were kayaks and bicycles even to use. I'd recommend this property and hope that I will get to stay there again in the future!

Beautiful and cozy spot, nestled in the park like Southern Shores Community; Close enough to the beach, restaurants and shopping, but with enough distance from the heavy traffic and hubbub of the busy OBX. We loved this spot!
