Reviews
“We had a great time at BHI despite some of the rain, but for most part the grandkids were on the go rain or shine. Tipsy Turtle was a great rental for all 11 of us and we would recommend it for other families our size as well. Thank you especially to Chasie for the quick response to the problem we had with the basement shower. Tiffany’s maintenance man, who I didn’t catch his name, did a marvelous job getting the part needed and repaired the problem in rapid time, thank you! Another great week at BHI!” John – July 2024
“Absolutely fantastic. Beautiful house, beautiful weather and an amazing time for the entire family.” James – June 2024
“Clean well cared for home near the ferry and West Beach access. Nice outdoor seating spaces. We could see the shipping channel from the second floor deck.” Pirrie – October 2023
“We had a great stay at the Tipsy Turtle. The house was clean, fully stocked with everything we could need (especially beach gear) and had room for all 11 of us. This home is obviously well cared for and we had a great week on BHI.” Carrie – July 2023
“Tipsy Turtle is a cozy and bright vacation home with lots to recommend it. My favorite features of the home were the large windows letting in lots of light, the compact kitchen that perfectly suited our needs, the large front porch with hammock and porch swing sheltered from the summer sun, and the cushy mattress topper in the downstairs bedroom suite. The golf carts worked well; our favorite was the 6-seater. The location was perfect to head over to the marina area for our morning latte or afternoon ice cream, to head to the south beach, or to get to the BHI club for pickleball, gym workouts and nice dinners. I like how Tiffany’s sets up your tram reservation when you book the home. Tipsy Turtle was perfect for our family to enjoy our first BHI getaway.” Margaret – June 2023
