Our family loved our stay…even our dog too! The beach access is super close and restaurants too. The fenced in backyard and porch areas were a lovely bonus. We hope to return!

Close to everything

My partner, son, and sister all stayed at Turtle Shell Hideaway for one week and we really enjoyed it. The location was exactly what we were hoping for since we were able to walk not only to the beach access but to get groceries, ice cream, and coffee.

Best Location Ever!

I would highly recommend staying at this lovely property. It is perfect for those with kids and/or dogs--the back yard is just brilliant! Communication between ourselves and the hosts was great as well. We had a few issues while we were there but they were all resolved quickly through the VRBO app. We would stay there again in a heart beat!

Great Location

Everything we needed for our 5 day trip! Great location to food, beach, water activities and pier. Even with 4 apartments with guests, it was very quiet. Would recommend to anyone wanting location and also dog friendly!

Great place!

Location is perfect and nice for a family get away! Everything is within walking distance and the pier to the beach is right across the street. My dogs loved the fenced in backyard and it was peaceful. Would recommend to anyone who is looking for a small family place. Will stay again for sure!!!

Great Stay

Second time staying at this property. Kitchen is well stocked. Rooms are a nice size. Great fenced back yard. We stayed in one of the upstairs units-the floor in the bathroom had started to give some, but that's expected with laminate (?) flooring in a humid environment.
