OSF03: Tucked Inn

We loved staying at "Tucked Inn" it was a lovely private home with a nice pool and comfortable rooms. My kids loved the house and we loved the close walk to the beach. We also brought our dog so it was a huge bonus to have this dog friendly house for a week, we will be back!

This place was so quiet, calm and close to the beach. We loved that it was dog friendly, the pool was great for the hot evenings! It is tucked into a small driveway so if you blink you will miss it... but once you're in, it's great. Our explorer fit great in the driveway and there is room to turn around. The kids loved the bunk beds and the house was clean and had all that we needed upon arrival. It is close to Harris Teeter and a great ice cream shop. We had a great time and plan to come back!

The booking process was made very easy, which we appreciate. The house is a little bit older. We really enjoyed our time there. The walk to the beach was short, which was great! Really liked the location, close to grocery stores, and a nice area for the kids to ride the bikes. Overall really enjoyed ourselves. Just think the house needs some updates.

The property was great! With an excellent location to the beach. The appliances, and the fridge were very clean, and although the dishwasher is really old it worked well. The pool itself was very clean, but there was some tree/plant debris on the concrete surrounding the pool. Also it would be helpful to have a list of which tv channels work. At first we found the amount of trees surrounding the house to be overwhelming but we grew to really appreciate the privacy and really liked our little tucked in vacation rental.

Pros 1st- we absolutely loved the pool, it had a deep end and shallow side with ledges on each end for sitting in the pool or great for young kids! 2 very close beach access points, the beach access down sea oats court is less crowded to the left than the access by the tennis courts. Harris Teeter and the best ice cream shop is close walk. The house has a great kitchen!!! The lighthouse painting in the den is beautiful! We loved the huge downstairs bathroom great area to hang up wet suits and towels!! Cons- the driveway you may miss it, it's not very inviting and if you have a truck like we did don't even bother turning the curve of the driveway unless they cut some tree limbs or brush away. The pool area is a safe zone from mosquitos, but anywhere else outside just run back in bc they are everywhere, the laundry area is outside under the house in a small room, that was odd. The house is very open and high ceilings so the only room that stays at 72 is the lighthouse room if you like it cold you will be disappointed in all the bedrooms. The ceilings need repair, and the upstairs bathrooms need to be updated, you can tell they just threw some paint on the walls and elsewhere to cover up what they didn't want to fix correctly. We absolutely loved the area the house was in! It's close to a lot yet you feel like you can still have alone time from other vacationers when you want too.It was a vacation house and we had a nice vacation, but this is not our vacation house we would want to continue to rent!

We love the Tucked Inn!! Super location near supermarket. Short walk to beach along a beautiful wood walkway. Super clean house that is very nicely decorated in a cute beach theme. Beds super comfortable. Loved the pool - the water was great! The beach was uncrowded and we loved seeing the ghost crabs along the sand. Hope to stay again next year !!

Wonderful beach house experience! The owners of the aptly named Tucked Inn have thought of everything we might need to have fun on our vacation. We liked the open floor plan and the private pool was a nice alternative to the ocean that was a short walk away. It was the perfect place to relax and recharge.

Location was great but there were a few issues. Refrigerator was missing shelves. Parking was difficult. Cleaners appeared to do surface cleaning only. i.e. dirt, dead flies in sills, dirt under furniture. Kitchen was well equipped tho and overall the two weeks there were great. TV was sketchy with the sound? Gated deck was great for the dogs.
