Lovely accommodations and a great view of the beach. Beach access was easy and the porch was inviting. We watched the surf while we drank coffee in the morning and wine in the evening! Restful and restorative. While we needed little, Donna was very responsive when we reached out. As forewarned in the listing, the stairs, both inside and out, are steep so we factored that into our stay.

Just perfect! Had everything we needed!

What a perfect stay and beautiful beach. We loved the sunrises, all the wildlife, including diving pelicans and a pod of dolphins! This was the best stocked kitchen of any vacation home we’ve ever stayed in. Everything was labeled and organized so well. Beds were very comfy! And the town was very cute too :).

Another great week at Topsail!

We had a great time and the house was in a perfect location! We were able to walk to dinner and get ice cream multiple evenings and really enjoyed evenings relaxing in the hot tub looking out at the ocean. Would definitely stay here again!

Donna did it, again!!! Steve and I had a wonderful experience with communication, as Donna is always on top of things and provides all the info you need ahead of the visit. We also love how she checks in with us day of to ensure we got in ok and checks, again, mid week to ensure we are enjoying our stay. Our boys love their bunk rooms and have repeatedly said that this house feels like our second home (don’t we wish)!!! This is our second stay, the first being over the Winter and this last time was over the Summer. The house was clean, organized, and welcoming. It’s a beautifully decorated home with comfortable beds and seating. We love this house so much. We look forward to our next visit. This family of four highly recommends!!!!!

Great property with an amazing oceanfront location. Walking distance (10 minutes) to all Surf City shops and restaurants. House was exactly as pictured and described in listing. Owners were extremely responsive and very helpful. Beds/pillows were comfortable. Linens provided were high quality. Bathrooms all had shampoo etc. which was not expected, but appreciated. Kitchen is well stocked. Beach gear was convenient. We had our dog with us, and he loved every minute. Top floor is gated at the top of the stairs which was a plus. But nothing compares to the location. We spent many hours on the beach, but nearly as many sitting on the decks (porch swing was great, hot tub nice at the end of the day) watching and listening to the ocean. We had an extremely relaxing vacation, and would stay here again without question.

Perfect Trip!

This was a fantastically maintained and decorated property, with an absolutely perfect location. The beach is literally steps away but you're just far away from the pier to have a little distance from people, a close enough if you need to go grab a quick coffee it's only a few minutes away. The owners are courteous and prompt with their communication, and we'd gladly stay there again!

This is a hidden gem on the beach. Beautiful inside as well as the views looking out!

If you're looking for some relaxation right on the beach, this is the house to rent. In a quite neighborhood like setting, just steps to the beach and a short 2 minute drive into town. The house has been well maintained and decorated to make you feel right at home! This is my new beach house everytime I come home to my favorite beach!!
