North Topsail Beach

"Our family of 9; seven adults and two toddlers, spent a week in September in this wonderful home. Communication with Cheryl from beginning to end was flawless. She goes out of her way to make your experience special. The home is large, well-appointed, with all the necessities (in fact, I over-packed!). We did order our linens from Sunsational Rentals, and they were waiting for us upon arrival. There were plenty of dish towels, blankets, etc. With everyone having their own space/room, we never felt cramped or on top of one another. I did bring a baby gate to keep the littles from wandering near the staircases. The home is very clean and well-cared for, we treat rentals as we would our own home...and this could easily be considered home. The walk to the beach was easy; we did bring our own collapsible wagon as Cheryl had told us that the home's wagon had bit the dust. The beach chairs and boogie boards are provided. We grilled out most every night. Evenings were spent on the deck, listening to the waves and watching the sky. You can also sit in the screened-in porch and get a different vibe from the sunset over the Intrascostal area. We have vacationed in North Topsail before; but with littles this was a different type of vacation. We did go to the Seaview Pier; the food is mediocre, but walking out on the pier is a necessity ($1.00 a person). We enjoy going into Surf City and Topsail Beach for shops and occasional lunch. The island has plenty of playgrounds that our grandsons loved. A short walk from the house to the Firehouse enabled the older grandson to sit in and 'drive' a firetruck. All of us agreed that we would love to come back here!"
