Topsail Island is a hidden gem along the NC coast, known for its pristine beaches, crystal-clear waters, and charming coastal towns like Surf City. From sunbathing and swimming to fishing and surfing, there are plenty of outdoor activities to enjoy on this beautiful island.

With so much to see and do on Topsail Island, your vacation will be filled with unforgettable memories and moments of pure relaxation. Topsail Island is a 28-mile-long barrier island made up of marshes, estuaries, dunes, and shorelines. Sandwiched between the Atlantic Ocean and the Intercoastal Waterway, “Tops’l” as the locals call it, is home to several fishing piers including the Seaview Fishing Pier. 875 feet of planks were used to construct this pier, which is the longest pier on the North Carolina coast. Privately owned shops, restaurants and attractions abound on Topsail, as well as the neighboring mainland towns. Learn the history of Topsail at the Missiles and More Museum and understand how to be a good steward of the sea at the Touch Tank Aquarium in Surf City and the Karen Beasley Sea Turtle Rescue & Rehabilitation Center for laid back and family friendly things to do on Topsail. Each of these attractions offers its own unique charm and adds to the allure of a vacation on Topsail Island.

This house had everything we needed for a great week at North Topsail. The quiet road was perfect for walks and bike rides. Beach access was close and at a quiet part of the beach. Neighbors were quiet and friendly and the produce stand a block away was a special treat with availability of fresh produce, ice cream and sorbet everyday! We spent 90% of our time when in the house on the deck and enjoyed the views of sunrise and storms over the ocean. The management company responded quickly to any questions and concerns. Perfect stay.

Cindy, we are glad you had a great time. Thanks for the awesome review.
Said we could use the shed but we didn’t see a key and some light bulbs burned out. Also WiFi and tv didn’t work. Otherwise we loved the place. The space was perfect for our crawling baby and we loved the views in the morning and night!!

This beach cottage just steps away from the beach was perfectly charming! We enjoyed watching the beautiful sunrises & sunsets on the spacious deck and loved walking endlessly on the soft sandy beach. The cottage has a warm inviting vibe & has everything you need. We look forward to returning next year.
What a great place to stay! Love coming back to North Topsail and really enjoyed this property. It was clean and well-appointed. The kitchen was well equipped, the beds and furniture were comfortable and the views were fantastic! The front porch was wonderful! Many cups of coffee and lunches were enjoyed here. And being able to sit at the kitchen table with dinner and enjoy the ocean was great!
But a special shout out the management company! Stellar group! Answered every question quickly and with a smile in the voice. And they even came by to help us with a very minor problem and we were so appreciative!
Definitely hope to stay here again!

Barbara, we are glad you had an awesome time. Thanks for the awesome review. We are glad you enjoyed your stay.
My family if 3 (wife and great 2 year old son) had a wonderful stay! The home was clean, perfect size with a great deck and table under the house where we share most of our meals. The view as sound of the ocean we are already missing. Walking across the sleepy street to the beautiful beach each day was so perfect.
The rental was a gem at the beach! We loved the layout, the decor, the many windows with views of the ocean all around, and the quiet dead end street! I would stay there again!!
