We loved the deck on the house and enjoying meals outside. It has a lot of needed amenities and was a great location. The home does need a thorough deep clean though. There’s quite a bit of dust build up. The bathrooms could use some additional attention as wells as the floors.

First time to Oak Island and this home was perfect for my family. My 2 daughters, their husbands and my granddaughter came to stay with my wife and l. The location was perfect for us. I have a bad knee so instead of walking through the soft sand I visited the beach via the handicap beach access just 2 houses down. The home has everything we needed and more. The furniture was very nice and the bedding comfortable. The back porch is large and we hung out there a lot eating meals, relaxing and looking out over the ocean. Thanks for allowing us to stay at Turtle Time!! We look forward to returning soon!! Scott and Family.

The house was wonderful. It was very clean. The wood work was appealing. Access to the beach wasn't difficult. The dunes have to be there for beach preservation. We will return.

Nice place for our weekend vacation. The house had everything we needed and is conveniently located close to restaurants, stores, etc.. the beach view is beautiful and not alot of people. The only room for improvement we noticed was the cleanliness. There were multiple areas that havent been cleaned/dusted in a long time, and there was trash and food from the last occupants in between the couch and under the bed.

We’ve been vacationing at NC beaches for 3 decades and this was our first opportunity to stay beachfront. The cottage was a perfect blend of classic (original wood details, simple layout) but nicely updated kitchen and bathrooms. The A/C was out the night we arrived (seems like an ongoing problem based on past reviews) but since it was October we opened the windows for a lovely breeze. A repair tech came out first thing in the morning and it was fixed by 11am. So many great things are walkable (coffee, restaurants, playgrounds) and of course being able to walk off the deck and just a few steps to the beach was amazing. It cooled off our last evening there and we looked forward to using the fireplace on the porch but the ignition was broken so that was a bit disappointing. Otherwise we would definitely rent again and look forward to bringing our kids back in the summer.

Nice that it was on the beach,but furniture and bedding could use a well needed update.

This property was wonderful, clean, modern kitchen, beachfront. Bathrooms were a bit dated, but no big issues there. The property manager, Vacasa could not have been less helpful. I tried calling a few times, and ended up waiting for 15 minutes before hanging up. Then, the AC went out and I called asking them to fix. It was 6pm, so they said they couldn’t do anything. It quickly became 80 degrees (would have been miserable with 2 young kids) so we cut our vacation short and left that night. There are after hours services to do this. As well, they did not refund anything from forcing us out of the property at 6pm instead of 10 am the following day. I love thé property, but will never use Vacasa again

I have been coming to Oak Island and Holden Beach for years now, and this is easily the loveliest place I'd stayed at. There were little things here and there that could be fixed, but all in all, the house was great beautiful, right on the beach, close to the grocery stores. Definitely a favorite.

Overall we really enjoyed our stay here. Comfiest couch I’ve ever sat on! TV in every room, microwave/air fryer combo, keurig and coffee pot, and an assortment of board/card games. Our biggest gripe was that the “private beach access” was a rope path over the dunes with a sheer drop—not usable with a wagon and not safe for young kids and elderly. Hope the owners update the cheap beds and bathrooms (shower floor creaks and tub stopper was broken).

We loved everything about our stay. The house was great and very clean. Everything we needed was provided. Stores and restaurants were close by. The deck was great with an amazing view and the ocean was just a short walk up the dunes. We definitely didn’t want to leave!!!

Great beach cottage!

Great beach cottage!

Such a great beach place! It was perfect for our family. It was super clean, easy ocean access, the deck is new, furniture is nice and beds comfortable! Recommend to anyone unless you need a new/gourmet kitchen. I’m already looking at when we can go back and rent Turtle Time again!

Great Location

Great Location

Great Location for Oak Island. Right on beach with great views of the ocean. Everything was clean. New sofa, dishes, glasses. Everything you should need for cooking. The grill needs to be cleaned desperately. Full of grease which ignites easily so be careful. Propane was empty for outdoor fire pit. Was told to refill it and was reimbursed. Beds could stand for an upgrade as well as bathrooms but was functional. TVs worked. We had a great time at the beach.
