A Herd of Turtles was the perfect home for our family of 6. It was spacious and the beach access was only a short walk across the street. Our kids loved the pool and it being heated was an added bonus!!! There were lots of beach chairs, umbrellas and beach/pool toys to choose from so no need to pack any!! The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to prepare our meals including a crockpot and a mixer. As always the Bluewater staff was friendly and accommodating. Emerald Isle is our favorite vacation getaway and we can't wait to return next summer!!!

Close to the beach and restaurants , pool was relaxing, home is well taken care of and plenty of utensils for all cooking, cleaning and maintenance needs. Also, maintenance was quick to replace the gas tanks on the grill! Easy check In and check out.

The property was great for a couple of families that want to get away. The location was excellent and we loved having the private pool available to us as well. Property was clean and allowed my family to feel that we were safely COVID distancing in a great location.

I loved staying at A Herd of Turtles. This is the second year we stayed at this home. It is wonderful. Lots of room. Great view of the oceans. All the kitchen supplies you could need. Even more. I am already planning on staying at A Herd of Turtles again next year.

The location of this house was just perfect - a walk to the beach but with a great amount of privacy. The pool was lovely and our kids really enjoyed it. The kitchen was stocked with everything you could imagine. We had a lovely time.
