The Perfect Shell
My adult children and our dogs spent Christmas together here. It was perfect! The host has so many small touches that made us feel welcome! The dwelling itself felt so homey and everything you might need is there. The beach view is great and it is such a short walk to get to the beach. We had an amazing time and will definitely come back. It was the perfect shell for my family of turtles!!

Absolutely love this house
My family and I loved our stay at One Happy Turtle. The house was so clean and well stocked with just about anything you could ever want or need. Excellent communication with the owner and a very short walk to the beach. Perfect for a family traveling with kids, grandparents and dogs! We will definitely be back. Not house related but Holden is so fun for shell and shark tooth hunting. We found a ton of cool stuff!

Amazing stay!
This was absolutely perfect for our beach getaway! The property is just as described and only a short walk to the beach. We brought along our pups and loved the backyard and open space. There is a very small dog run area for your pup should you wish to use it and conveniently a spray hose for a quick dog clean up.

Outdated, but great location
This house has everything you need and then some. Owner was very responsive before and during our stay. The house could use some updating, but the location makes up for that. Literally steps from the beach and just a couple of minutes from the bridge to get to the mainland.

Name it and you have it , close to beach and pet friendly
Long time due, , we went during Spring break but reviewing it now. This property definitely needs a review. We are a family of 6 and 2 dogs, this is the best property I have been in , in so many years, not a posh property, its a simple, all you need, well thought off, well organized, you name it and you have it, well sanitized property. They had welcome treats for everyone. No complaints or concerns. This is exactly the property a family with 2 kids, 2 dogs and 2 senior parents would need. The beach is right across the street, hardly 100 steps. A decent sized fenced dog run, you can sit peacefully at the deck and not worry about them running away. Both my lab and GSD loved it. Barbara was very helpful and followed up after checkin and also the next day of our stay. She was available to us always with one text. The dogs had a blast at the beach in the mornings when no one was there. It was cold but they loved it. One suggestion, there is enough room in the backyard, with 2 sided fence and back full of thick bushes, if that could have a fence in the front, that would give more room for the dogs. That being said, we still loved it. Hope to make this a custom every spring and visit every year. Thank you. -Maddy

Perfect Weekend Getaway
We booked spur of the moment, wanting a place to getaway to for the weekend. Options were limited due to spring break, yet I am so glad we found this place! Similar to other reviews, while dated, don’t let that stop you from booking. The house is comfortable and had everything we needed. The beach access is just across the street for nice walks on the beach and enjoying the sunset in the evening. I don’t have any complaints about our stay- it was great with our young daughter and pup for a slow, relaxing, weekend away!

This house was absolutely perfect for my family! Barbara has literally thought of EVERYTHING you could need to make your stay comfortable. We could have gotten away with packing just clothes and a toothbrush because the house had everything else! And not only for us but for our pup too! It was the lightest packing we've done for a beach trip in years! Beach access is right across the street and food and shopping are both right around the corner. Location was perfect! We absolutely plan to visit 1 Happy Turtle again! Thank you so much Barbara!

Turtle Time
When other reviewers say that Barbara thought of everything.... that’s the truth! We only had three people so there was plenty of space. Location was amazing, minutes from ocean and very private. Quiet neighborhood where you can listen to the ocean on a deck with an arch high enough to enjoy the starry sky as well. Everything you need is minutes away but you only need to bring a few meals and snacks and you’re all set. The living room furniture could be a little more comfy but house was immaculate! The sliding deck doors made it possible to let the ocean air in. Beds are super comfy! TV’s in all the bedrooms would be nice for those of us who can’t fall asleep without one, so perhaps bring a laptop if you need that sleep crutch. It was reallya treat to have the cable box and we enjoyed access to tv platforms as well. The beach is so beautiful here that I think we may return in a warmer month when we can sit in the surf. It was a wonderful escape from life! Thank you for the gift basket and wonderful wine!
