Breathtaking Location

The house was perfect for our stay. It's located on a quieter section of beach. We could watch sunsets rise over the ocean in the morning and then set over the intercoastal in the evening from the rooftop deck. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped.

Family Time

This is a lovely home, plenty of room and the beach just outside the door. We would love to go back this year. Everyone had plenty of private time if they wanted, and lots of family. Thank you for renting to us, the kids and grandkids are still talking about it.Karen and Ed Satterfield

Absolute Gem - Best North Topsail Rental

We have used Vrbo since it was launched, and this property absolutely nailed it. The checkin was easy, hosts were super fast to respond, property was clean and in great condition, and the views were amazing. We typically judge vacation rentals on cleanliness, the hosts, the beds, and relaxation vibes. We were able to enjoy full vacation mode and enjoy our time off. WiFi was fast and the signal was great throughout the home for weekday work. Appliances seemed almost brand new. Beds were very comfortable (our biggest gripe with many rentals). The decks were amazing. The pictures do not do them justice. We didn’t want to leave, and we will be regulars from now on. Thanks for the great memories!

Right on the Beach!!

God’s Grace is perfect if you are looking to be right on the beach. We had a wonderful stay. The owner went out of her way to accommodate our last minute reservation getting us into a rental a night early. We will be back if life takes us to Topsail again!

Great place to stay!

We recently just stayed at Up On The Roof and had a great time! The weather was perfect, the place was updated, very clean and had great access to the beach, we could not have asked for more. We also met the owners who were very nice and helpful and we enjoyed meeting them. We love visiting Topsail and will definitely be visiting again soon!

Great property and location!

Everything was as it was portrayed in the listing. Very nicely updated home and very comfortable. We love that section of North Topsail Beach and have vacationed there every year for 18 years. This was easily one of our favorite beach houses we’ve stayed in. Our family enjoyed the house and had a great stay!

Sisters Weekend

Really enjoyed one long weekend. My only complaint is the number of stairs my 73 year old arthritic body had to endure. Other than that, we had everything we needed and the view from the three decks was spectacular.
