About this house rental
We now offer weekly and monthly discounts in the off season months (Sept. - May)
-Our completely renovated house is centrally located 1.8 miles south of the Surf City pier, restaurants and shops, offering a less crowded beach experience due to no public parking nearby. Beach Access #28 is located just two houses down and across the street, so you are just steps away from enjoying the best that our beautiful beach has to offer.
-Sleeps up to 8! The entry to the VRBO house is up the front steps to the main living area, which contains a living room, kitchen, sunroom/office, 2 bedrooms (queens), and a full bath with shower/tub combination. Close the French doors to the sunroom/office and you have an additional private sleeping area for 2 with the daybed (which converts to 2 twin XL beds or 1 queen). The interior staircase leads to a primary bedroom (king) /bath ensuite with walk in shower and a separate laundry room.
- 3 night minimum, except June 1 - August 31, 2025 when a 7 night minimum Sunday to Sunday stay is required.
-When you're not enjoying the beach, you can listen to the ocean waves from our spacious front deck or relax in the private fenced backyard featuring a propane fire pit, Adirondack chairs, and stone patio.
-A Weber propane grill and an outdoor shower with hot and cold water are located on the ground level.
-Beach chairs, blankets, sun shades, beach games and toys are stored in bins on the ground level. Beach towels can be found in the laundry room.
-There is ample parking in the driveway for 4 guest vehicles.
-Inside the house, recent updates include: new paint, luxury vinyl plank flooring, stainless steel kitchen appliances, quartz and marble countertops, ceiling fans, 4 Smart TVs with Sling (blue +orange) and Peacock streaming accounts, Wireless internet, large capacity washer and dryer, Keurig coffee maker, Smart locks for self check in with unique code, and a desk and chair recliner in private sunroom office.
-Large open floor plan allows for family gatherings for dinner and game nights with supplied games and puzzles. Kitchen is well supplied with spice rack, coffee/tea, pots and pans, serving dishes and utensils, Snapware, knives and cutting boards providing you with a great start to delicious home cooked meals in our new convection oven with Air Fry.
-Paper supplies, linens, towels, shampoo, soaps, detergents, and sanitizing cleaning products are provided. A water purification and softener system has been installed in order to avoid "beach water" taste.
--Please note: There is a completely separate apartment on the ground level, which has no access to the VRBO house upstairs. To access the VRBO house, you go up the stairs to the front door off the beach-facing deck. Owners do not use the apartment for overnight stays when there is a guest in the upstairs VRBO house. The apartment may be used occasionally by the owner for a brief stop at the beach. We’d inform you ahead of time and park in the gravel area to the left of the concrete driveway to be out of your way. Let us know if you have any questions about the apartment and its use.
-Well behaved, house broken pets are welcome for a non-refundable $100 fee. Surf City beach permits dogs on a leash year round. We ask that you not leave the dogs alone in the house unless kenneled and if pets are in the fenced back yard, you will be accompanying them. We provide a medium size dog kennel and pad that is stored in the primary bedroom closet. There are 2 dog beds stored in the laundry room to the right of the washer/dryer. Dog bowls can be found in the cabinet above the microwave. All dog waste should be bagged and put into the trash bins. Waste bags dispensers are mounted on the backyard posts for your convenience.
-The house is professionally cleaned and due to Covid protocols folded shrink-wrapped clean sheets and clean towels will be placed on top of the beds.
-The cost of any damage or missing items will be deducted from the security deposit or otherwise collected from the tenant as provided by North Carolina law. Please advise us if you find something not working properly, so we can address it for you and future guests.
-There is NO smoking or vaping inside the house, only outdoors on the front deck or in the backyard where covered ashtrays are provided for cigarette butt disposal.
-We have tried to provide everything that we want in a vacation rental and used top quality materials since this is a gathering place for our family also. We hope that you will make wonderful memories at Ruby Jane's, which honors our wonderful grandmothers.

We had such a fun week in surf city! This house has everything you need for a beach week, the living space and kitchen are on the smaller side for a large group (6 adults, two kids, two dogs) but we made it work. Ryan was communicative and texted us with updates about mosquito spraying, etc. we loved the proximity to the beach and will absolutely keep this place in mind when looking to book for next year!

Everything you need is in this sweet beach view retreat. The house was spotless and well stocked. The beach access is literally across the street and down two houses. This is a lovely rental.

We sort of knew this house from when we were in a different hoke last summer and drove around scouting out a home for a spring getaway. After seeing this listing, driving by it and speaking with current tenants we decided to book it. Turned out to be a great decision and wonderful home. The owners were immediately receptive to answer questions and very kind. The home was spotless and ridiculously stocked with everything you could imagine needing. The location was ideal...a very short 2 min walk to beach and great beach views from the home. We will be back for sure!

The house was spotless when we arrived very, very clean! Check in was a breeze and Mrs Deb reached out during our stay to make sure we were good! The Location was great and beach access was very easy. View is wonderful and the owners go above and beyond to make sure you have every thing needed. The fenced in yard was wonderful for our Yorkie and the fire pit was an added bonus!! I would 100% recomend this house and owners if your looking at Surf City/Topsail!!

Premier location next to the beach with a better stocked house than my own. Seriously, everything you could possibly need for a perfect getaway is accessible and available at the property. The home was clean yet comfortable and relaxing. Our dog loved the fenced in back yard almost as much as romping through the ocean waves. Will definitely stay here again when the opportunity arises.

This beach house was so great! The owners thought of everything you could possibly need to make you feel right at home. We spent the entire thanksgiving week at this house and the kitchen was so well stocked with everything we needed for preparing, cooking and serving a wonderful feast. In addition the beds are super comfy and the outdoor space is unbeatable. Oh - and believe it or not - the weather was fantastic and we were able to spend a lot of time on the beach in late November. We will be back!

This was an awesome place to stay, and was close to everything Surf City has to offer. The home was extremely clean and spacious, and just a short walk across the street to the beach. We will definitely look to this place, for a repeat trip. Thanks for the wonderful vacation rental.

We travel to Topsail annually, and this house was the best EVER!! Excleelnt location, so clean, everything we could need or want from beach chairs to towels.

And the firepit is AMAZING!!

We were so pleased with everything while staying at your home for a few days! Great location and close to where the wedding was held that we attended. The house was immaculate upon entering, there were detailed notes in reference to the working of the appliances, beach supplies, the outdoor propane fire pit etc. Most impressive was the thoughtfulness of the hosts ensuring their guests have the most comfortable stay possible. The “ little things” that really do mean a lot. Wipes for the Adirondack chairs by the outdoor propane fire pit. Forget to pack shampoo? No worries, it’s already there. Need a sunshade at the beach? Extra beach chair? Doing laundry and need a dryer sheet? Forget your “ dog waste bag” ? All of that and so much more can be found, all compliments of such gracious and friendly owners. Thank you so very much! I wish we were able to stay longer and perhaps the next time we visit we can. Five stars! Yes! Most definitely!

This sweet house was perfect for our baby's first trip to the beach (and for parents first vacation in over a year!) - the house was well-stocked with the needed items without being cluttered. The house was super clean and there were a lot of notes with instructions about different parts of the house that were really helpful. The best part was having access to some beach shade options! Our beach umbrella was rusted in some spots and we weren't able to use it - for just a couple of adults, no big deal but a 3 month old definitely needed some shade! It was so great to have a couple of beach shade options available at the house! So clutch!

We absolutely loved our stay at this property despite the tropical storm that hit Surf City during our stay. We really appreciated the owner reaching out to us during the storm to ensure we knew where the flashlights were located during the storm incase the power went out (it did not, thankfully!).
The home has everything you will need to enjoy your beach stay -chairs, sunshades, toys. Everything high quality!
We loved spending time in the back at the fire pit. It is a beautiful set up and really a cozy, relaxing atmosphere.
We will absolutely be staying here again!!

This is one of the best VRBO's we have stayed in. The owners had the place fully equipped to prepare and cook meals. It was very clean and well organized. The rooms were awesome. They also had supplies of paper towels, soap,dish washing supplies and hair products. It was so close to the beach which worked out for our family since the little one needed naps during the day. We liked it so much, we booked it for next year same time frame for our Labor Day Staycation. Thanks so much.

This was our 5th time traveling to Topsail. We love Topsail so much! This time we decided to try somewhere new to stay. I can tell you that we hit the jackpot with this location! The owners had everything that you would need. It is the little touches that make a vacation place great and they had all of them. We loved the kitchen so much that we hardly went out to eat. We bought fresh fish every night and cooked in. The house was clean upon arrival and the owners were very responsive. This by far is a wonderful place to stay! Looking forward to staying again next year 😊

First the house was amazing. Well stocked with consumables like paper towels, toilet paper, soaps, shampoos, and too many other things to mention, There was an HP printer with paper and extra ink if needed. Great washer and dryer. Large LG refrigerator with ice maker. Keurig with a mix of pods. Beds and linens provided were very nice. Towels both bath and beach. There are Tommy Bahama beach chairs, umbrella, Shibumi Shade, and another type of beach shade. Had body boards for kids and other toys.
There are written instructions for everything in case you do not know how to operate an item. Less than five minutes walk to the beach.
Only negative thing I can say is the couch and chairs in the living area could be replaced. Not very comfortable when watching some TV but they are functional.
Overall it is still a 5 star rating. Too many other good things to rate at any other rating.

The house was spotless, comfortable, and owners an absolute pleasure. I have rented MANY vacation homes from VRBO over the years and this was hands down the best stocked I’ve ever seen. The owners put a lot of care into the home offering anything one needs to make their stay more comfortable. No busted beach gear here.

We loved this house . It was close to the beach access, the house was clean and beautiful. They had everything you could possibly need to relax on the beach including chairs, shelters, beach toys, and everything in between. Our trip back to the area after a few years of visiting other places was definitely made even better staying in this home.
