We have come to Topsail each year for most of the last 12 years and stayed a different place each time for no particular reason- usually because the size of our group varies. We'd put this one at the top of our list to consider for future trips pending what our group may look like then.The house was the best appointed one we can remember- we found several little unexpected "gift" packages for some day to day things that we did not expect, but that were a really nice touch. Linens, beach towels, and beach chairs, umbrellas, etc. were all plentiful, more than what we needed, and better than some we have rented in the past. We also have had some challenges with not enough tupperware-type storage in previous stays elsewhere, but that was not an issue here- plenty of glass and plastic storage containers for our group. The owners were always responsive to even fairly mundane questions. Nitpicking, we did find some dog hair in places, but that was not wide spread or anything that caused us any issues. We thought we may have paid a bit more for a house we decided we liked better than others, but that was at least offset by some of the other things that were provided. Overall, a really great experience with this rental and one we will save to consider for a future trip.
