The property was great, the location was great because we were close enough to the heart of Surf City to either walk or ride to the shops and food, but far enough away that our beach access area was not overcrowded

About the host

Hosted by Joe and Malissa Lorson

Host profile image
Hello,
We are Joe and Malissa Lorson. We are the owners and the managers of this property.
We live nearby in Jacksonville, NC and we are available to assist immediately should anything come up during your stay. We bought this beautiful beach property in Spring of 2015.
Together we have 6 six children & 4 wonderful grandbabies.
We love our jobs but just as much we love relaxing at the beach and enjoying the company of each other and our family. We want to give you and your family the same experiences we've had here on Topsail Island.

Why they chose this property

You will fall in love with the serenity of the water views from all rooms in this beautiful home. You will especially enjoy the peacefulness of being directly on the waterway. We have a 6 person hot-tub to soothe your muscles and your mind. When you're done in the hot-tub, take a stroll down the lighted pier and relax on the small dock. You can fish, crab, watch the wildlife or enjoy a glass of wine. We've seen more species of birds from this dock than we ever dreamed imaginable.

What makes this property unique

There is something very special about this home that is hard to put into words. We searched the island for a property knowing exactly what we were looking for. As soon as we walked in, we both knew this was it! We haven't met anyone who didn't feel exactly the same after staying here. We like to treat our guests like family and your comfort is our primary concern. We love to travel and we have incorporated the very best parts of our travels into your vacation stay. You will find all the luxuries of home, a complete and furnished kitchen with all the upgrades.
We know that you have many options when choosing a place to stay for your vacation but we are always thankful and honored when you choose ours. We look forward to hearing from you!
