Get away from it all and reconnect with friends and family here at Retreat at Turtle Pond, an adorable home tucked in a quiet area of Southern Shores with only one neighbor and located right across the street from Duck Woods Country Club. Each day can begin on a tasty note with a cup of coffee in hand as you look out to the pond from the furnished deck. When days heat up, launch the three provided kayaks into the pond and soak up some sweet vitamin D. There is a community marina for boats! If you are looking to indulge in a classic beach day on sugar-white sand, you better take advantage of having access to a private beach (passes provided). And, when it is time to relax under the colors of legendary sunsets, the gas grill and picnic tables will be waiting to host summer cookouts until the stars come out! There are community tennis courts available if you feel like practicing your swing.
Inside, everyone can spread out with ease in the single-story layout. The living area features vaulted ceilings, a fireplace, plush furnishings, and a mounted flatscreen TV with streaming capabilities, so kicking back for a ballgame with the whole gang will be a breeze. Step into the full kitchen when hunger strikes and whip up anything from a snack to a four-course meal on modern appliances. The adjacent dining area has plenty of room for everyone to gather for formal meals and game nights, yet there will be no better place to end the day than outside under starry skies.
This is your sign to take that long-awaited getaway, so book your stay at Retreat at Turtle Pond while it lasts!

Great house and neighborhood
Very nice and quiet area. House was very accommodating for cooking and entertainment. Having Roku on every TV was a bonus and we really enjoyed the grill and big yard. Also, great AC in the house as well.

Great Location
The location was the best thing about this home. Perfect for anywhere you want to go on the Outer Banks. It was spacious and accommodated our group of 8 very well. Note that the home does not have a dishwasher even though pods were left on the kitchen counter by house keeping. There were only 4 forks so we had to ask for more which the management company dropped off the next day. We also had to ask for more washcloths because we each were provided one for our stay. There was also only one trash bag for the kitchen trash can. A few minor things but overall the stay was pleasant.
The size & layout of the house was as listed. However, the house was not clean, there were two bags of laundry laying in front of the steps to the house, cobwebs in several places & clutter everywhere, there was a light switch and outlet in the living room missing plates, trash under the furniture & beds, floors were not clean. Lid to trash can was broken and the toilet seat in the master bathroom was cracked. We did not have a parking pass for the private access to the beach nor were bikes available as listed. We contacted Vacasa rentals & provided pictures. They sent someone out to clean while we were out having lunch. It was slightly cleaner when we returned but trash still under furniture. Darren, a Vacasa employee dropped by mid-week to drop off a quilt. My husband showed him the missing light switch and outlet covers and the laundry laying in front of the house. Darren picked up the laundry and the came back later that day to replace the missing plates and brought over the parking passes that we were told on Tuesday we have to drive 30 minutes away to Corolla to pick up. On a scale of 1-5, I would give Vacasa 3 stars, but I would give Darren 5+.

Turtle Pond House
We loved the retreat at Turtle Pond. It was quiet, comfortable, and exactly as described. Not only that, but most things that we needed were completely furnished and there were kayaks and bicycles even to use. I'd recommend this property and hope that I will get to stay there again in the future!
