We had such a lovely time staying here for my birthday! The sunsets are breathtaking. Super easy communication with the host and a clean place. Having accessible laundry was a plus. I can’t wait to come back! Also highly recommend Andrews produce stand just a few blocks down, delicious produce and desserts!

Everything you need for a quiet and relaxing getaway. Short walk to the beach but the back deck is so lovely, it's sometimes hard to leave. Well-stocked kitchen, a charcoal grill downstairs, and there are even beach chairs if you need them. This was our third booking of this sweet little house, so needless to say we absolutely love it!

We enjoyed our November stay here. Topsail Island is so quiet in the fall! This house has a great view toward the Intracoastal Waterway. All you see from the back deck is marsh plants, birds, water, and a few far-away houses. The beach is 2 very short blocks away. You have to cross the main road/highway to get there, but there is hardly any traffic off-season.The house is small but comfortable, and is well-equipped for fixing your own meals.We will stay again!

Wonderful Beach Home

House was a very dog friendly home that was super close to the beach. House was clean and stocked with basic starter supplies and kitchen cooking supplies to cook amazing meals. I would definitely stay here again.

The unit is definitely a beach cottage. It is smaller than the surrounding houses and much older. The bedrooms are tiny and the smaller room does not have a closet. The interior of the unit is nice and has been upgraded with tile, fresh paint and new appliances (no dishwasher). The washer and dryer were downstairs but we didn't get a good look to know if they were newer or older models. The deck facing the intracoastal appears newer and has a nice view. However, the front deck is in need of repairs, and the damages were pointed out to the prop manager who said it was on the To Do list. You have ample parking for up to 4 vehicles.The kitchen has all the plates, cups and cookware that you would need to work in the kitchen. I wish we had a dishwasher and starter selection of coffee would have been much appreciated....that's just me. I liked that all the linens were packaged (sanitized) but it would have been nice to have the beds prepped (set up). We didn't realize that we had to spread beds until it was late at night then we were on a search to find the sheets. You are definitely paying for location with this unit. You are on the intracoastal, and the beach is a walkable 1 block away. The property is pet friendly, but it is not fenced so pets must be kept on leash.

Perfection

This house was EVERYTHING my wife and I were looking. The location was a short walk to the beach and the sunset views from the side porch were incredible. It felt very private and the yard was a great size for our dog to walk around. The beginning of our week consisted of 4 adults, including my wife and I, and the house felt like the perfect size. The house feels like a home away from home. The owner of the house responded quickly if I had a question. My wife and I couldn’t get over how perfect the house was and can’t wait until we get to come back next year. I highly recommend this home.

“Best vacation yet”

We’ve been coming to Topsail for the last 12 years and the husband dubbed this one the “best vacation yet” all because of this lovely place. We enjoyed the privacy and peaceful quiet here. The dog loved the sunny deck and watching the birds and butterflies. This was our first time not staying oceanfront and it turned out to be the best decision.

Beautiful Views, Great Non - beachfront location

Beautiful marsh views made up for our first time not staying at a location that is beachfront. Very peaceful. Quiet neighbors and easy walk to the beach. I would suggest updating your outdoor furniture as it’s either uncomfortable or rusted. Size is great for a couple but may be too small for more except perhaps small children. Overall we had a great time and owner communication was great!

Sunset views

The property was as described. It is not a large house, but they do not depict it as a large house. The photos are very accurate. It reminds me of a small family owned vacation home back in the time when the common blue collar family could afford a little piece of paradise. A place to escape and fish and commune with family. If you are looking for a large house or luxurious house, maybe look elsewhere. They are not charging a luxury price and dont make any false claims about the house. The view is where the money is. Fabulous sunsets that you will never forget. We very much enjoyed our stay. Nice quiet street with very few neighbors during our stay. Highly recommend.

Awesome location and great host

The location is great with direct view over the backbay (sunset) and it's a short, 1-2min walk to the beach (sunrise). The house is cozy and the outdoor shower and hose downstairs as well as the faucet on the porch are great to wash off the sand before going inside. A few things are a bit 'dated', like the screen of the screened in porch and the outdoor furniture but there weren't really any bugs and we had our own beach chairs. We had one issue during our stay but the host was very responsive from the beginning and throughout and quickly resolved it.
