🌊 Once Upon a Tide: A New Chapter Begins
In our 60s, when many are slowing down, we decided to write a new chapter—one filled with sea breezes, sandy toes, and the joy of sharing something special with others.
We’ve always dreamed of having a little piece of the ocean to call our own. After years of hard work, family milestones, and life's many twists and turns, we found ourselves standing on the deck of a charming home on North Topsail Beach, watching the sun dip below the horizon. That was the moment we knew: this wasn’t just a property—it was the beginning of something new.
We lovingly named it "Once Upon a Tide", because every great story starts somewhere—and this one starts with the rhythm of the waves, the call of the seagulls, and the magic only the sea can bring.
Hosting on VRBO is a brand-new adventure for us. We've never done this before, but we're pouring our hearts into it. We've curated every room with comfort, ease, and coastal charm in mind. We’ve added those little touches that we would hope for if we were the guests—soft linens, morning coffee on the deck, beach chairs ready to go, and a space that feels more like a home than a rental.
But more than anything, we’re opening our doors because we believe in the power of shared experiences. Whether you’re here for a family vacation, a quiet couple’s retreat, or simply a much-needed escape, we want Once Upon a Tide to be part of your story—a place you’ll remember long after the sand is gone from your shoes.
So, from our hearts to yours: welcome. We’re thrilled to share this new journey with you.
With warm coastal wishes,
Your Hosts,
Nicholas & Francesca

Once Upon a Tide – 1768 New River Inlet Rd
Why they chose this property
We chose our beachfront home at 1768 New River Inlet Road, North Carolina because the moment we stepped onto the sand, we felt something we hadn’t felt in a long time—peace. There was a quiet magic here. The kind that makes you stop, breathe deeply, and realize you’ve found something special.
North Topsail Beach offered everything we had hoped for: natural beauty, a slower pace, and the kind of coastal charm that feels untouched and genuine. The sunrises over the Atlantic are nothing short of breathtaking, and the sunsets across the sound paint the sky in colors we never get tired of watching.
The location felt perfect—tucked away enough to feel private and serene, but still close to great local seafood, quaint shops, and hidden coastal treasures. Whether it's morning walks along the shore, watching dolphins play in the surf, or simply enjoying a glass of wine as the sky turns gold, every day here brings a sense of calm and gratitude.
We knew right away: this wasn't just a vacation home. It was the start of a new adventure—and one we wanted to share. That’s why we created Once Upon a Tide—a place where others can come, unwind, and make memories of their own.
