A week of sunshine and togetherness.

My husband and I spent the most amazing week in the most lovely, well-cared for vacation home that reached way above the expectations we had before we arrived. Nothing ever looks as good as the photos so we thought it coudn't possibly really be that wonderful. I was speechless. It was a dream vacation for us. We left very stressful jobs behind and lost ourselves in this most perfect paradise where we watched the sun rise everyday from the front deck with a cup of coffee, took a morning walk on the beach, came back to momosas on the deck by the pool, sunning and relaxing,smiling and pinching ourselves that we were actually in this beautiful home all to ourselves. Quiet and relaxing, but not very far from anything we needed. We never wanted to leave the house, though, so we bought fresh seafood and cooked ourselves. We packed things we didn't need. The house, particularly the kitchen, had everything imaginable! I fantasized that it was our home for the week we were there, and I cried as we were preparing to leave. I keep a photo of the beach house on my desk in my office as a reminder that I am counting the days until my husband and I can return to what is now our most special place ever. And there is even a Steeler bar nearby! You just can't beat that! We hope you will allow us to come back next year. We can't say thank you enough!
Owner response:This review pretty much describes our feelings about this great vacation spot. There is nothing we would do to change it unless we could convert that Steelers bar/restaurant into a New England Patriots fan hangout. It seems the whole area is a vacation haunt of Pittsburg Steelers fans. Nevertheless, welcome back next summer (or come enjoy a great winter beach getaway).

Perfect family getaway

My husband and I stayed in this lovely house with our 4-year-old son the last week in September. The house was cozy yet had everything we needed. It was so convenient to just walk across the street and be on the beach. We spent hours collecting seashells and playing in the surf. When my son was tired of the saltwater, we were able to come back to the house and let him splash around in the pool. We all enjoyed the hot tub as well. The area is nice and quiet - the beach was not deserted, but it was far from crowded and we began to recognize the same families each time we were there, so it had a more intimate atmosphere than the more commercialized beaches. I would highly recommend North Topsail Beach and particularly this property if you are looking for a fun time without the hassle of the beach crowds.
Owner response:The joys of North Topsail Beach in a nutshell! We love it and will never go back to the OBX.

A comfortable home just across the street from the beach. Grilling on the deck while kids played in the pool,crabbing at night,and fishing at dawn. When we needed a break we relaxed in the home and the family is now addicted to chess. The owner has great communication and you can tell he cares about his home and the people who stay there. We had a great time and would love to go back. Of course their is internet connection and tv for those that still want to be plugged in but it was amazing when the kids didn't even turn it on! That's a vacation:)
Owner response:It sounds like our guests had a great stay at the beach and made it a true vacation without watching TV and spending time on the computer.....fishing, crabbing, swimming and chess in addition to the usual BBQ'ing, beachcombing and hot tubbing. There is never enough time to do everything on North Topsail.

Great Vacation and Relaxation

Review Submitted: 09/17/11
This was a great vacation spot for us. Just what we were looking for. Sitting on the beach all day and relaxing. Upon arrival, the house was just as clean and cozy as in the pictures. We spent every day but one on the beach. This location is also very close the the inlet, so the fishing was fun also. We walked the beach during the morning and day and found lots of sand dollars, large conk shells, and many other types of shells. The pool was very nice, but cool during this time of year. The hot tub was awesome. If you are looking for a place to spend your time shopping and going, then topsail may not be for you. If you are looking for a time of sitting on the beach during the day and game time with the family at night, you are in luck. We will definately return here again. Would recommend this place to anyone. The owners are great and will respond very quickly to emails and answer any questions. Great vacation for us. I would recommend Mainsail Restaurant. Great food and good service for us.
Owner response:Sometimes it is difficult to decide between fishing at the inlet, walking the beach looking for shells (particularly good after a storm), going for a swim or sitting in the hot tub..... or trying one of the good local restaurants (try The Beach Shop Grill at the southern end of the island next time). Whatever you do, North Topsail Beach is the place to stay. Come back and enjoy seaside solitude with a good book in the winter as well....we love it!

Excellent Vacation Spot

Review Submitted: 06/27/11
From the beginning, this was a wonderful experience. I first was impressed by how quickly the owner was able to return emails or answering questions. Once we arrived, I was impressed by how clean, open and airy the house was. All the windows and skylights provided lots of sunlight and views, and the kitchen was very well stocked. Since we were new to the area, the drawer full of area information (maps, etc) were very helpful. Each deck had a different view and was a great spot to relax and listen to the waves. The beach access is right across the street. Spending time on the beach was a great way to start each day, followed by an afternoon dip in the pool. Overall, it was a superb and much needed vacation! We loved it! The owner recommended The Beach Shop and Grill in Topsail Beach for a Father's Day dinner...It was absolutely fantastic! A couple other spots to check out…The Topsail Island Trading Company and the Sea Turtle Rescue and Rehab Center in Surf City.
Owner response:Our guests from Ohio apparently enjoyed North Topsail and our beach house as much as we do. There is no shortage of things to do and the beach is always right there in front of you. A cool shower, a dip in the pool and a beverage of choice poolside while dinner cooks on the grill is a great way to finish a day at the beach. But leave one night for an outstanding dinner outing at The Beach Shop and Grill in Topsail Beach!

Great Place to Escape

Overall the cottage was very comfortable, clean and well stocked with kitchen items. We loved the pool, hot tub and the short walk to the beach. Who could ask for more! The area is great for enjoying bike rides or just taking a walk. Most of all, the weather cooperated so we could enjoy every second of our vacation at this great little cottage. Would recommend this to anyone wanting a nice quite place to relax and enjoy the Topsail Island.
Owner response:Another guest who appreciates all that North Topsail Beach has to offer and likes the beach house. See you next summer!

My husband and I have stayed at many different vacation homes over the years, but this was the one that felt most like a home as opposed to a rental property. The kitchen was incredibly well-equipped, the landscaping was beautiful, the house clean and very cozy, with furniture you can just sink into with a book during a rainstorm. Since we were there before the season really got going, not everything was open yet. Call ahead before you try to go somewhere during the off-season. We grilled out on the deck most of the week, but had a great meal out at The Green Turtle (awesome seafood pasta!). It's obvious the owners take great pride in the property, and we can't wait to make a return trip. Hopefully it can be an annual trip for us!
Owner response:We are pleased when our guests enjoy the beach house as much as we do, particularly during the off season. While the summer months are outstanding on the beach, the other seasons have much to offer in the way of a quiet, relaxing communing with nature ..... the sounds of the waves and sea birds and the collection of sea shells, driftwood and relics offered up by the sea after a storm. We share our guests' appreciation and would welcome them back.

From start to finish, our entire experience could not have been better. Renting through the owners is extremely easy - my questions were answered promptly, and everything was in order for our stay. The house is very comfortably furnished, and the kitchen is stocked with everything you could ever need. The beach was beautiful - since we went during the off season, there weren't many other people around, so it was very peaceful and relaxing, which is just what we wanted. It was too cold for the pool, but the hot tub was a welcome way to end each day. Grocery store and restaurants are a short drive away. I would recommend this property to everyone, even though I'd like to keep it as a secret for myself! We will definitely be back!
Owner response:Another guest who enjoys the beach in the winter time! We love walking on the beach looking for shells after a winter storm, then warming up in the hot tub and afterwards sinking into the sofa with a hot chocolate. Not that laying on the beach in July with a cool drink is bad!

Quiet R&R by the sea

My husband I traveled from PA to Raleigh for a friend's wedding celebration. After celebrating for 4 days we knew we would need a week to quietly detox. We were happy that the Foster's lovely beach cottage was able to come to our rescue. If I could describe this cottage in one word it would be: cheery. Everything about it is sunny, bright, and feels friendly, with it's colorful decor and warm furnishings. It has everything: lots of airy windows, 3 decks, ceiling fans and a good kitchen. (I loved the cookbooks and copied many a recipe in the afternoons.) The pool and hot tub are big bonuses and the short walk across the street to the beach ideal. I loved our long shell-combing walks in the morning and reading on the deck in the afternoons, the waves rising and falling a short distance away. All our days were sunny and I could get used to being tan in late October. This is a quiet part of town, peaceful, restful. We enjoyed our stay very much.
Owner response:"We concur. Summer vacationers miss the relaxed atmosphere of the off season when strolls on the beach collecting shells or reading a book out on one of the decks to the sound of endless waves are very pleasant activities. Lounging in the pleasant and cheery surrounds of the living area (which I have to credit my wife with) is also one of my favorites. "

The house was just as promised and our family of 6 had a very enjoyable time. The premises are well maintained and owners were very accomodating with our late reservation request. We loved being able to see the ocean from our deck and beach access could not have been closer. We will definately be back!
Owner response:We love when our guests have a good time! And we get to meet some very nice people. North Topsail Beach is a great place regardless of the time of the year. We enjoy its many moods - spring, summer, fall and winter.
