Inn on Turner

Searched for the perfect place to relax and unwind on a solo trip and I found it at Inn on Turner! What a cozy welcoming place this is! Gorgeously decorated in cool soft blues with fluffy pillows all around. My suite was so comfy with 3 windows for natural light filling the room. A noise machine had the ocean waves playing when I entered which set the mood right away! Special toiletries were placed in the bathroom with a pillow spray by the bed as a gift from the owners. Kim was very available and willing to help with suggestions of things to do and places to dine. Her farm fresh healthy breakfasts were delicious too! Happy hour with wine is provided each evening at 5pm which I thought was such a nice touch! I sat on the upstairs balcony the first night to enjoy my wine and the second night in the beautiful garden by the front porch. I can’t say enough about how much I enjoyed my time in Beaufort and especially the hospitality and comfort of Inn on Turner! Can’t wait to return!!!

Our Inn On Turner experience was very peaceful and relaxing. Kim made sure that every detail for a pleasant stay was thoughtfully taken care of well ahead of our needs. She spent time discussing itineraries and provided insider ideas for an adventurous day ahead. The breakfasts were creative and beautifully plated. Each evening we were delightfully surprised with a fun and themed happy hour. We will recommend the Inn as a definite destination location to friends!

Without a doubt, the Inn on Turner is absolutely the very best Bed & Breakfast that we have ever stayed in. The Inn is Beautifully and Tastefully decorated, giving a very calming and historic ambience. Everything was spotlessly clean! The Breakfasts were Amazing! Kim and John are Great hosts, and their priority was to ensure that our stay in Beaufort was perfect. We will definitely return.

Absolutely an amazing choice I made! I can’t say enough good things about this gem! Great location (parked my car and didn’t move till departure) beautiful Inn both inside and out! Inviting front porch and lovely garden to relax and enjoy. Beds so comfortable with special pillows for your preference of soft or hard, toiletries provided were specially chosen by Inn owners to add to the atmosphere. And the farm fresh breakfast was delicious/healthy both mornings of my stay. Kim was very helpful with offers to make dinner reservations and suggestions of things to do during my stay. I can’t wait to schedule my next visit to Beaufort and Inn on Turner!!

My husband and I have never stayed at a bed and breakfast, and honestly didn’t think we were missing much. When we decided to celebrate our 43rd wedding anniversary in Beaufort, we came upon the Inn on Turner. The reviews were overwhelmingly positive, so we figured why not give it a try. What a wonderful experience! |We had the room on the first floor off the dining room. Sounds like it might not be very private of peaceful. Oh, but it was. Very private. Very peaceful. The decor is lovely. The room is clean. The mattress is super comfy. |The inn’s owner, Kim, is welcoming, knowledgeable, and happy to make recommendations for spits to visit and places to dine. Her breakfasts are beautifully prepared and delicious. I appreciated the fact that she makes it a priority to source her ingredients from local vendors. Always great to support small businesses. Wine is available in the lobby from 5 to 6. It was a pleasure to sip it while leisurely enjoying the swing on the front porch. |The Inn on Turner is not a cookie cutter hotel experience. It is much more special than that. We’re so happy our first bed and breakfast experience was here. If we find ourselves in Beaufort again, this is where we’ll definitely stay.|Thank you Kim for such a wonderful weekend!

Very nice Inn convenient to everything we wanted to do in Beaufort. Our hosts, Kim and Jon were exceptional. Perfect balance of hospitality and privacy. Kim was available with information and insights to make our stay memorable and easy, which is just why we came to this beautiful little town. Her recommendations for dinner were perfect and made it easy for us to enjoy our weekend getaway.

We saw the Inn on Turner while watching an episode of NC Weekend. Immediately added to our list of places to visit. First time staying at a bed and breakfast and it did not disappoint. The Inn’s location is perfect and within walking distance to the waterfront, shopping and restaurants. The Inn is tastefully decorated and very comfortable. We enjoyed our coffee each morning on the front porch, breakfast was homemade and so delicious and made with the freshest ingredients. We enjoyed chatting with Kim and other guests during happy hour and ended each evening on the porch upstairs watching the moon come up over the little church across the street. Very relaxing. Kim was so kind and such a pleasure to talk to. Her love for the house and area shows. A true hostess with the mostest!! Can’t wait to go back!

Much more than we were expecting. Definitely a trip we plan on taking again!

My husband and I stayed at the Inn over the New Year for our anniversary. Kim and Jon were so accommodating and more than that, they were just nice. The food was excellent every morning and made the start of the day easy. There were things that I wouldn't cook at home but I enjoyed at the Inn. It was so nice to have someone take the time to find out what we liked to do in order to make recommendations for how to spend our day. Kim was so wonderful to make reservations for us for anything we wanted from food to the ferry. Staying in an inn can have pros and cons. You don't want to feel like you are staying in your Great Aunt Emma's house but you want it feel homey. The Inn on Turner has just the right combination of comfort, privacy and ease of use. Check in and check out were a breeze. We loved having the cocktails at night and Kim even went over and above and left us a midnight snack for New Year's. There was not one thing that I wanted or needed that wasn't attended to. The Inn was just far enough way from town to walk but not feel like you were in the thick of things. There were so many great shops and restaurants and bars that you could be there for days and not get to them all. tI would go back again for sure.

I appreciate the updated decor of this Inn as a lot of Inns think they have to be old world decor. Kim is a great host and so very knowledgeable of the area, and she is willing to help in any way possible to make your stay fun. The breakfasts were good and weren't overfilling or sickeningly sweet. Knowing everything was local is an added bonus. The Inn is in walking distance to everything downtown Beaufort, so you can park your car and not need your car keys for the rest of the stay. The cocktail hour is such a nice reprieve in the evening, and sitting on the porch is wonderful. The reason I didn't give 5 stars is solely because of the shower. This is a top-rated Inn and it is not cheap, so the very small plastic (or whatever it's made of) shower in this beautiful room, in this wonderful Inn was a let down. There's barely room to turn around. The bed was super comfortable and the rooms are a nice size.

Kim and Jon go to great lengths to ensure their guests expectations are exceeded. Breakfast was fantastic and the facility is a short walk to the waterfront. Definitely would recommend and will stay with them again!

The Inn on Turner was homey and relaxing from the first step through the door, that perfect mix of higher class furnishings without making you afraid to sit on the furniture. The bedroom was comfortable and calming with breezy coastal decor. I did not mind the lack of television and actually enjoyed not hearing the news through the walls from other guests, as can easily happen in other BnBs. The in-room amenities were high quality (sound machine, ample outlets, hangers, etc) - and products all smelled great! The quality of sleep was extremely high. Kim was a fantastic host providing not only dinner recommendations but also providing reservations! Kim also supplied guests with the day's activity recommendations as breakfast was served. Complimentary happy hour and breakfast were quite a treat. Sitting at the outdoor firepit after dinner was the perfect way to end the day. Street parking in October was a breeze. Location of Inn was perfection - two blocks to main downtown drag but on a quiet street. I LOVE that the IOT is adult only. There's an extra feeling of calm for couples and singletons when they enter a kid free place. (Plenty of kid friendly options elsewhere.)

The owners of the inn, Kim and Jon, are absolutely incredible. The communication, attention to detail, and hospitality is a level I've never experienced. They truly want to do everything in their power to make your stay wonderful and unforgettable! The inn is historic and charming and is elevated by coastal decor and the location is ideal. If you're looking for a delightful stay in quaint Beaufort with wonderful hosts, look no further than the Inn on Turner!

Superb! Many thanks to our host and hostess, Jonathan and Kim. Our stay at The Inn on Turner was everything we hoped it would be and more. You cannot go wrong by booking your special getaway here.

FULL COMPREHENSIVE REVIEW of the Inn on Turner. FIRST IMPRESSIONS: Prior to arriving: Kim was very professional on the phone and took the time to answer any questions that I had. She sent a very informative email with suggestions on things to do in the area and places to dine. She offered to book any dining reservations prior to our stay, which is a nice touch if you are short on time. Upon arriving: Nicely restored historical home, similar to a lot of the inns in Beaufort, the third oldest city in the state. Tastefully decorated inside and thoughtfully set up for guests to lounge and relax. The house is a little further from the main attraction of Front Street than some of the other inns, but it is still only a short walk. THE ROOM: Also tastefully decorated. Fairly spacious for an older home, and a private bathroom, which is always a plus. Pretty color scheme throughout the house- a bit more modern than some of the older homes. THE FOOD: Kim and Jon go the extra mile to serve an evening appetizer with an alcoholic beverage for happy hour, in addition to the breakfast each morning. The dishes were simple yet elegant. During my two nights there, I was served the following appetizers: -chicken wings, olive salad, pistachios, and rose wine -peel and eat jumbo shrimp, pimento cheese spread with crackers, peanuts, and choice of beer or wine I was served the following breakfasts: -oatmeal with apples, raisins, and nuts, local sausage, fresh juice, and coffee -huevos rancheros, fresh fruit in a tequila finish, fresh juices, and coffee Dinner is available, as well as small parties, although we didn't take advantage of this. The portion sizes of all the meals were generous. Coffee service starts at 8:30, and breakfast is always served at 9 a.m. Happy Hour begins at 5 p.m. My only complaint is that we wished the coffee and juice were available earlier. We generally get up pretty early and had to walk down to the coffee shop for a drink. It is pretty close though, so it isn't too inconvenient. There was also no fridge to keep things cold. My wife and I wanted to relax with some drinks, so we ended up keeping a cooler in our room. Not ideal, but it worked. Kim did offer to keep our drinks in the fridge, but the kitchen is off-limits, so we decided against it for convenience sake. ALLERGY RECOMMENDATIONS: Kim was very accommodating to my wife's food allergies, which was kind of her. We did let her know ahead of time so that she could be informed before grocery shopping, which I would recommend. THE PEOPLE: Kim and Jon make an effort to get to know their guests and to make sure you are comfortable. The are both friendly and want to ensure you are taken care of. They keep a nice balance between being accessible and providing you with privacy. Kim is easily reached via phone or email if you should need anything during the stay. THE STAY: My wife and I enjoyed our stay here and were much more comfortable than in a standard hotel room. We liked the character of the house and having a common area to relax in. We also enjoyed having the option to sit on the porch or by the fire pit. OVERALL: It may be a little more than the other B&Bs in town, but the extra touches and hospitality of Kim and Jon are by far worth every penny. Would highly recommend for a nice, quiet getaway.

We had a great time. Happy hour in the evening, great breakfast in the evening. We had dinner at the Inn one night and it was very good. We will definitely stay here again

This was a find! On our way back home to NoVa we wanted to try some Carolina BBQ. After a couple of false starts that led us to chains, we went out of our way to get here. We were surprised by some of the best BBQ we have ever had. We had the brisket, pulled pork, ribs, chopped beef, potato salad, Cole slaw, fries and Mac n cheese. The ribs and brisket were hands down the best we have had. Service was great. Everything was out doors. We even ordered a fresh peach cobbler. Lots to take home and enjoy tomorrow. You will not go wrong by heading here even if it is out of your way.

Thank you so much to Kim and Jon and the Inn on Turner for our amazing stay. This was the most rejuvenating and relaxing five days of our lives. You all must go to Beaufort, NC if you need to recharge your batteries. The attention to detail that Kim and Jon show every guest is breathtaking. The room was perfect; temperature, bed, comforter, bathroom, color, perfect. And last September, after the hurricane, the room we stayed in had no roof! And now it's perfect. The breakfast every morning was delicious. I sat here for a minute trying to come up with adjectives to try and describe the taste. I literally don't have the vocabulary! Amazing. Kim even set out different cutlery every day! Attention to detail. At breakfast every day she asks questions to see how she can help your stay be more special by making recommendations and offering assistance. All the while everything, including the delicious bourbon we had at Happy Hour (Oh, yeah, everyday there is Happy Hour at 5!), is locally sourced. Kim and Jon are ALL ABOUT locally sourced and sustainability. I came in from an early morning walk and Jon was selecting herbs from their garden that ended up in my breakfast! The town is so chill. We had lunches and dinners at so many great restaurants. Shopped in a beautiful downtown that was only two blocks away. We saw wild horses and great beaches. I love Beaufort, NC, but I love it even more because of the Inn on Turner!

My husband I spent several nights at the IOT recently and were very happy with the inn. Our room was quiet, comfortable and clean. Breakfasts were delicious, and featured local products. We really appreciate all their efforts to be environmentally-friendly. The location is great; a quiet residential area that is just a short walk from all the restaurants and shops on the water. Our innkeeper was very personable and accommodating. It was our anniversary, and we were greeted with a bottle of champagne - such a nice gesture! We would definitely stay at the Inn on Turner again.

We spent 2 nights at the Inn on Turner just last week. Kim called when I made the reservation, contacted us about a dinner opportunity, and then called before we arrived to see if we had any questions. I appreciated her extra help. We did take advantage of their amazing in house dinner featuring fresh everthing! We are from the west coast so enjoyed the east coast seafood. The appetizers were generous and yummy, and well paired with wine. Breakfast was also delicious. We decided to go shelling via a local walk-on ferry. Jon and Kim made us a delicious picnic lunch and helped equip us. Their Inn was definitely a highlight of our N.C. visit.
