New year vacation

Heather and Kelly were great. We had a wonderful very relaxing stay. A lot of the attractions were closed for the month of January, but we visited the grounds of the lighthouses, took the ferry to Ocracoke, visited the Wright Brothers Memorial, and the beach.

Perfect Location for a Fishing Trip

House was very clean, well stocked, and the property owner was quick to answer any questions I had. Located between bait shops, restaurants, the sound and the beach. Met every requirement we had, then some. Highly recommended

Perfect getaway spot

We were on OBX with a large group of people and decided we'd prefer our own space for sleeping. Tranquil Tides was clean, the air was on when we arrived and it had everything we needed. We were only 2 miles from our friends house. It was perfect for our needs! Will definitely return!

Accommodating

During our stay one of the guest locked us out of the property by accident. I sent a text to the owners and within minutes were given access to a lock box and able to regain entry into the property. Very accommodating host, we will be staying with them again.
