Teach's Lookout is new to the rental market providing the perfect home for your Topsail Island vacation. The custom renovated beach house includes luxury plank hard surface floors throughout and new features that are very well appointed for the perfect vacation getaway. Everything about the home is comfortable, clean, and neat. With beach access across the street, you can enjoy ocean breezes, the sound of waves, and long-range ocean views which are prevalent throughout the home, and also enjoyed from the outdoor living spaces.
The cozy living room features views of the ocean, plenty of comfortable seating for gathering, and includes a wall-mounted smart TV, a DVD player, and a stereo with a CD player and hookup for Pandora music to play from your smartphone. A supply of board games, playing cards, chess, checkers, and books are also available.

The first of the two bedrooms features shabby-chic furnishings in the tranquil colors of the sea and a ceiling fan. A door leads out to the deck where you can see the ocean and enjoy the hot tub. The second bedroom offers a wall-mounted smart TV with a DVD player. The two bedrooms share a full bath. An amazing feature of Teach's Lookout is the tiered deck area with unobstructed long-range views of the ocean and miles of beach. Both the sunrise and sunset can be seen from this deck area making the space unlike most others. On the main level of the deck is a massive elevated picnic table perfect for all your alfresco meals, and a gathering space for the entire group. There is a partially covered deck area where the hot tub and bar are located. This covered deck area offers additional lighting, and views of the ocean. The overall deck is perfect for hanging out together, enjoying meals, or perhaps an evening beverage. The crow's nest sun deck puts you high above it all with unobstructed views of the Atlantic Ocean, beaches, and a vantage point for miles.
Teach's Lookout includes an outside enclosed shower with a changing area. For the fishing enthusiast, you may appreciate the outside covered fish cleaning sink with built-in cutting boards. Additionally, the home includes a laundry area on the lower level with a washer/dryer. The ground level includes a covered concrete patio area with a second picnic table and outdoor gas grill. Both the outside shower, fish sink area, and lower level patio have added lighting for convenience in the evening. Adjacent to the house is a quiet street with public beach access. The street is ideal for bicycling and evening walks along a quaint beach road with street lights. Enjoy the ice cream truck that rolls by in the afternoons during the summer months offering an element of nostalgia. This is the perfect beach cottage for a vacation with family and friends or an individual getaway. You will fall in love with the home, deck area, location to the beach, amazing views, and thoughtful attention to detail.

Our stay here and it was exactly as described. House had everything we needed and was the perfect size. We enjoyed sitting up on the top deck in the evening with a super view of the beach and ocean as well as relaxing in the hot tub.

Beach house
We loved the location. The hot tub was fabulous. House was sweet and cozy. Thank you so much for letting us share your wonderful cottage. Can wait to come back this summer. Pam
We loved everything about this house! The location is perfect for a quiet family vacation in Topsail Beach. The kids loved being so close to the water and beach to play everyday. We loved watching the dolphins right from the deck, sunrises were amazing, and the house was just right for our family of 5. Having on site laundry was a HUGE bonus for a beach vacation stay. The house was immaculate when we arrived, and the check in process was a breeze.
This property was perfect for us. Excellent situation close to beach and wonderful views of the ocean. Well equipped with everything we needed, more than was expected after reading information. Huge deck with gates to stairs which meant we could allow our dog to lie outside and not worry. The hot tube was wonderful, perfect temperature, fairly private and good views. Loved the tall chairs, perfect for relaxing and watching the world go by. Superb place to relax and unwind.
The house was totally as it's appear!! The kitchen was great and fully stocked!!The outside area/porches were amazing!!!
I didn't like that we couldn't control the a/c is was on locked on 72 the whole time so we couldn't adjust it at all and it was warm in the house most definitely at bedtime!!We had 5 people in our stay and we only had hot water for 1 person at a time then wait an hour for second person to have hot water!!

Great view, poor house.
The location of the home was amazing. The cleanliness of the home was also good. But there was only one trash bag. The kitchen lights did not work. The Wi-Fi went out half way through our stay and did not turn back on. The bathroom exhaust fan did not work. The master bedroom ceiling fan was incredibly noisy. There was several nails and screws sticking up on the deck. The view was amazing and we loved being so close to the beach.

Thank you for your feedback, Dustin. We’re glad you enjoyed the location, cleanliness, and proximity to the beach. However, we apologize for the issues you faced, including the limited trash bags, non-functional kitchen lights, Wi-Fi outage, faulty bathroom exhaust fan, noisy ceiling fan, and safety concerns with the deck. We take these issues seriously and will address them with our maintenance team. Your feedback is crucial for us, and we are committed to making improvements for future guests. We hope to host you again and provide a stay that meets your expectations.
The house was amazing. Just as advertised. Views were fantastic. We had one fantastic sunset due to cloudiness. Some nights were a bit chilly but the hot tub made up for it. We were presented with falling stars one night, a beautiful rainbow over the ocean another day. Even caught glimps of dolphins. Day trip to Wilmington. Plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. Also a lovely hike over the intercostal waterway bridge. A fantastic week to start 2025. Could become our New Years tradition. One warning though. If you have a fur baby the yard is true to being a beach yard with sand spurs. Ours picked a couple in his paws but was easily removed. 10 stars from us.

Perfect low-key, restful vacation home
This beautiful little home is perfect for getting away to do a lot of nothing but basking in the slowness of Topsail Island. First of all, North Topsail Beach is quiet and friendly. We were steps from the beach. You can walk or bike on the quiet road that roads behind the home. We spent so much time on the porch and levels of decks. The views are spectacular. We have been to other Carolina beaches. This one is much less crowded. We spent the week as a family enjoying each other's company but could easily move to an area (porch, deck, bedroom) to be alone for a bit. The kitchen has what you will need for simple meals. It is an older property but has new windows and flouring. There is a new water heater. The AC was great.

Great Outdoor Living Space
We loved the house and the location. The deck area and outdoor living space was amazing. We had such a great time and will always love the location and the memories made there. The only reason I took away a star was because the beds were not that comfortable and the master bedroom also stayed way warmer than the other rooms. The bunk room would be ice cold while the master was warm. We tried variations of keeping the bedroom doors open or closed and couldn’t quite get the temperature right to stay cool at night in the master. The house is so cute though and the decor was great as well. We had plenty of paper towels, toilet paper, etc provided. We wouldn’t change a thing except to have been a little more comfortable while sleeping.

Thank you for taking the time to write your honest review, Jamie. We apologize for the inconvenience caused by the beds that were not comfortable, and the master bedroom didn't cool enough. We appreciate you bringing this up with us. We'll have our local staff take a look at this for observation and get things better at home. We hope to have the chance to host your trip again in the future.

Review
Great views and nice deck. Small, quaint, comfortable place. When we got to the house, there was no basic essentials, like no toilet paper, soap, scrub brushes, paper towels, towels, trashbags, etc. We were told that these were supplied (on listing and over messaging). Reached out to Vacasa, they did not get back to me until the next day. I requested compensation and they did accordingly. We were only able to take about a 3 minute shower before the hot water started running out, which was disappointing. Hot tub maintenance people came one day without any kind of notification beforehand.

Thank you for your review, Kourtney. We appreciate your honest feedback and we are sorry that the home did not have the starter kit of supplies we usually stock our properties with. We understand how inconvenient this was for your and we appreciate you allowing us to compensate for the trouble. We apologize for the unexpected visit from our team. We will certainly follow up with the appropriate parties to ensure that we are in communication with our guests regarding any home visits. We hope we can host you again soon!
