Thank you Vincent! We are so happy you enjoyed your stay!
We brought a family group of five adults with us for the week to stay. The house was very clean and so easy to access with check in and check out. The walk to the beach was the perfect distance (even more so for a 8 month pregnant lady!) Great stay!

About the host
Hosted by Katie Kosnar
Before finding Clocking Out, we had been renting in Surf City and Topsail for over 10 years. Every year, my PA family would join our NC family to take a break from real life and enjoy the salt air. We would “clock out” from work and head to the shore for a week of boogie boarding, trying to surf and shore fishing. Because we’ve seen just about every example of a rental property at the beach, it is important for us to give guests everything they’ll need for a great stay. We have filled our home with everything we need for a great family beach vacation, girls weekend or golfing trip with the guys, Convenience of location, thoughtful design of space/amenities and cleanliness are important to us. We hope you will love being here as much as we do. We are so happy to share our home with you!
Why they chose this property
This home has so much character and the perfect spaces to spread out. The waves are awesome for boogie boarding. When you're on the beach, you can see the pier to the south and all the way to the tip of North Topsail to the North. Surf City restaurants are delicious and there is a huge variety to chose from. Being able to see the ocean, hear the waves and watch the dolphins from the back deck are some of our favorite things.
What makes this property unique
Ocean views, open spaces and lots of sleeping options make this house perfect for vacations. You can walk to restaurants and bars, rent bikes and explore the island. The tall bridge has amazing views and a pedestrian walkway. The Topsail market is a great place to enjoy local artisans and treats. And don't forget about the turtles. We've been lucky to watch a new nest get eggs counted and protected. The Turtle Hospital and Missiles and More Museum are a definite must see.
