Our family enjoyed a wonderful week at the beach. It was a very warm week but the Topsail breeze helped to keep us cool. Everything about this house is perfect for our family.

We're so glad you came back again and had such a great time! Those Topsail breezes! We love them too! Many thanks for staying at Himmelstrand!
The house was as advertised. This was second year we stayed in this property and if we return to Surf city again, we will try to rent this house again.

We're so glad you came back! You are always welcome! Such great guests!
Lovely beach house in a great location with everything we needed for a family gathering. The two covered decks with the comfortable rocking chairs were a hit as were all the en-suite bathrooms! The elevator was very helpful in getting groceries and luggage up to the top floor, especially for the 70 year olds in the group. Would definitely return here.
House is amazing! Clean, close to everything, and well appointed. This was our second year staying here and it never disappoints! Our party ranged in age from infant to 95 years old and everyone had what they needed.

We are so glad you had a great time! We're so grateful that Himmelstrand helps everyone of all ages have a wonderful time on Topsail Island. Please come again! You are always welcome!
This property was the perfect setting for a multi-generation vacation. The hosts were timely with responses and even provided a fun shell connection activity with previous and future renters. It’s hard to find a spot where a multiple families with a wide span of ages can have and and relax. The faculties were clean and well care for. With the quick access to the beach and the main strip, it was our perfect spot.
The house was beautiful and nicely decorated and very clean. We loved our family time and really enjoyed the house location, the easy access to the beach, pier, and shell collecting. Overall a great experience and we all want to come back to enjoy this well cared for house that felt like home away from home! Thank you for keeping it well maintained.

Great view of the ocean and very good location!!!
We really enjoyed our stay at this house. It was very clean upon arrival and the location is fantastic. The views were wonderful from the top floor with the beach just a very short ways away!!! Location is also fantastic in Surf City with many places to eat, visit, etc. nearby. Our family really enjoyed our stay and the owners were wonderful to work with.

Thank you so much for staying with us. We enjoy the location too: such a nice balance of all the things you want for a great beach vacation. We hope you stay with us again. You were such wonderful guests!
We had a fantastic week! The location was perfect and the house anticipates your every need. We especially enjoyed the deck every night listening to the ocean with a beverage in hand!

We love the decks too! So peaceful in the late evening when the moon rises and the sea breeze is coming in. So glad you had a great time!
This is a beautiful and well kept property that is perfect for a group of adults. Everyone has their own bathroom and there’s one room that’s great for a family with kids. The house is well laid out and comfortable and the covered porch is amazing or sitting out and looking at the ocean when it gets too hot to sit on the beach. Really enjoyed our stay!

We're so glad you had a great trip! We think the covered porch is such a great place to get some relief from the sun but still enjoy the beauty of the ocean and surf. Come again!
We absolutely love this house! A very well maintained property, accommodating, plenty of room, and very well stocked. This was our 3rd year at Himmelstrand and we already have it booked for 2026. The only reason I didn’t give cleanliness a 5 star was because a couple of bathroom showers were not as clean as they have been in the past and the property manager didn’t contact us. The owner is very proactive, informative, and wants to make your vacation stay the best week for you and your family. Thank you Chad!
