This is a well-maintained home and has everything you need. We didn’t have any issues during our stay. The house is as-described. The 4 bedrooms downstairs are all about the same size. There’s a Jack-and-Jill style bathroom between two of the bedrooms and a hallway bathroom between the other two (with a door that accesses a bedroom). The outdoor shower is probably the nicest I’ve ever seen. Everything was clean upon our arrival. Kitchen has a nice big fridge that we all wished we had in our own homes. Another great stay in Surf City!!

We stayed here for our 3rd trip to Surf City and had an amazing time. The house was perfect for our group of 10 (6 adults, 4 kids aged 4-12). The kitchen was well stocked, there was plenty of towels, umbrellas, chairs, shovels, buckets, and even a beach wagon that made our beach trips so easy. The beach access is literally across the street, outdoor shower was perfect for getting off sand. Communication with the host was quick, easy, and pleasant! We will absolutely book here again!

As always, it was a fabulous vacation and the house could not be better. The owner has it equipped with everything you would need...it's our home away from home!

good location for family gatherings, plenty of room for adults to spread out and a short walk to shops/food and directly across the street from beach access
5.0
Just across the street are the stairs to the beach, makes back and forth with littles very easy. Bedrooms are roomy and comfortable. The common area is a bit tight for a larger group (we had 12), but due to the layout it worked. House is well stocked and very clean. Furnishings are nice but not so nice that they make you nervous.
We hadn’t been to Topsail before but the laid back nature and fewer crowds makes it a solid contender with OBX. Cute restaurants and shops are indeed a 5 min walk from the property. The owners have provided every type of beach gear you’d ever need

The house was perfect for our family size. I would say that it needs a few improvements and a good spring cleaning but other than that it was great. Location is perfect and all the porches are perfect for taking in the view and beach air. We would definitely stay here again.

The Sea Glass Cottage was perfect for our family that gathered from around NC nd Tx. There were 5 couples so the king and 4 queens suited us. The young men grandsons rotated in and out of the suite on the third floor which had twins, bathroom and sitting room equipped with games. Since we had lots of cooks, both men and women, the well equipped kitchen was a dream. Last of all the view was spectacular even one row back. It was a wonderful week. Our homeowner was very prompt answering questions and concerns.

We loved our stay! The house is absolutely beautiful and has more than you could need for a week at the beach. Katie was so easy to get in touch with and responded very quickly. We will definitely be returning!
The only think that was a little difficult are the amount of stairs that my 72 year old mom had to climb!

We had an absolute amazing week as returning guests. The Sea Glass cottage is filled with ALL the best beach necessities and anything and everything you could need or want. Katie is a fabulous host with superior communication skills. We are blessed to have found this charming gem by the sea in the quaint beach town of Surf City. Thank you for sharing this beautiful home with us.

The property definitely exceeded our expectations. We have been vacationing at Topsail for 50 years. The house was very clean and well maintained.
It was well beyond equipped. Beach towels, beach chairs, all kitchen appliances, linens, and fun games.
The only recommendation I have for the house is higher guardrails on the top level deck. The view is gorgeous from this level, but I would be uncomfortable with kids (small and big) around the guardrails.

This is probably our fourth year staying at this property for our summer family reunions and I love that it's well stocked in all the right ways that allows it to be very easy and light packing for a beach trip.
5.0
As a group of 10, this house was more than accommodating! Plenty of space and everyone had their own rooms. The amount of beach gear and towels provided was so helpful and took away a lot of the stress! (The Shibumi and beach wagon were a nice surprise). The location of the house is just feet from the beach access making it extremely easy to go to and from. There was more than enough space in the driveway for our four vehicles with still plenty of room for cornhole! After using the cargo elevator for loading/unloading all of our things between the levels…I’m not sure we could stay somewhere without one now! Cooking meals was very easy with the well-stocked kitchen and all of the right cookware/utensils. Katie was very accommodating and quick to respond. We will definitely be back!

We came in town from Texas to Attend our daughter's wedding And could not be more delighted with our accommodations at this property.. Katie was awesome...We highly recommend. Very little Hassle and very well kept property.

We had a mixed group of family ranging from 3 years old to 85 years old. Everyone enjoyed their stay! Two things I would be sure you know: the “main” level is actually the third level and there are lots of stairs. This worked for us as the master bed/bath is on that level, so once the in their 80s grandparents were settled in they didn’t have to manage the stairs unless we left the house. The cargo elevator is a great help! The owner was informative and quick to respond via messaging. Beach views were great with chairs and decks on every level. Beach access was super easy. We took advantage of the outdoor shower to rinse the sand before returning inside. Plenty of items in the cabinets and fridge. We used some and left some. Easy access to everything. We did a Walmart pick up on our first day and filled our forgotten items and cravings at the IGA. Everyone agreed we would definitely book this home again!!
Recommendations for the area: I wouldn’t miss Maine Lobstah, Sears Landing and Topsail Steamers. All were within 5 minutes and had wonderful food and service. Visit the Karen Beasley Sea Turtle Rescue! Very affordable and great experience for all ages. Do your souvenirs shopping at Topsail Island Trading Company. Wonderful variety of items with something to fit in every budget. They also had a nice selection of local artisan items.

The house and location are lovely! Katie has considered so many conveniences - even the outdoor shower is equipped with shampoo/conditioner/soap! There were bath and beach towels, a well stocked kitchen with many items needed for baking, and an incredibly easy to follow e-guidebook. The house is literally across the street from the beach. Beach chairs, umbrellas, and the wagon provided made our visit seamless. We have vacationed in the Topsail/Surf City area for more than a decade. This house was one of the best we have stayed in!

Katie is a flexible and kind host; we enjoyed staying with her. The house is a sturdy older home with multiple levels which afforded quiet and privacy for our family. It is extremely well stocked and is one house away from the beach. We liked it so much that we are booking again.

From the moment you pull up to the house you feel instantly relaxed and begin to enjoy the ocean air! Conveniently located steps from the beach access combined with the incredible views from every balcony, this location does not disappoint. The house is extremely well appointed with cozy sheets, pillows bath towels and beach towels. The kitchen has every gadget you could want, most importantly a kicking Margarita machine. The garage is loaded with every beach essential item you could need-chairs, blankets, wagon, umbrellas. You are also a quick, quick walk to the little town center with a hot dog shop, ice cream, tacos, grocery store all in a quick walk! Katie was a fantastic host and went above and beyond to make sure our check in and stay were easy and tranquil. Will absolutely recommend to friends and family for their next beach vacation!

Exceeded All Expectations
This home truly exceeded any expectations I had prior to rental. The views of the water and beach were better than I expected from every floor. The proximity to shops, restaurants and everything else means we never had to get back into our car after arrival. The home feels large, spacious and clean. There was nice bedding in each of the 6 bedrooms, the air conditioning worked very well with a separate thermostat on each floor, and there was good shower water pressure. This was the most well stocked vacation rental I have ever been in and included those little things you forget to bring with you (as an example, there were portable fans in each bedroom closet). Katie, the homeowner, was a pleasure to work with and extremely responsive. I cannot recommend this home enough.

Sea Glass Cottage was the perfect choice for our weekend getaway! This was definitely the best managed property I've ever rented. The house was spotless when we arrived. It's spacious, beautifully decorated and Katie has thought of literally everything to make her guests feel welcome. The views of the beach from the multiple porches were gorgeous. We were grateful to have the most amazing weather and spent every day on the beach. We even did yoga on the back deck! Will definitely be back next year! Overall, a great experience.

Family Birthday Celebration
I can’t say enough good things about our stay at your beautiful Beach Home. Everything was perfect, the location, the beach access right across the street and the view of ocean was spectacular! The wagon was great to load our beach chairs, umbrella and all our stuff in to head to the beach. My grandchildren loved the game room in the garage. The house was equipped with everything, no need to bring anything. We have never rented a home that had it all with no worries about anything! This home has it all. The owners were very quick to answer any questions or needs if needed. We will stay here again for sure. Thank you so much for allowing our family to stay in your beautiful Beach home!

Just a perfect weekend!! The house was clean, spacious, and convenient to everything, with breathtaking views of the Ocean and Intracoastal. We parked our cars and walked everywhere the entire stay (no need even for an Uber). The public beach access was directly across the street and is perfect for overflow parking after 5, if needed. The walk into the center of town for the many bars and restaurants that Surf City has to offer is about 5 minutes away. The morning walk to the bagel shop is even closer. We could not believe how clear the ocean water was, we thought we were in the Caribbean. It seems everyone but me finds sharks teeth at this beach, except this guy, but its fun looking. Nice beach chairs with a wagon are provided for your convenience, leave yours home. The homeowners turned one of the garages into a game room, with a basketball game, foosball table, and dart board. We wish the stay was longer, but we'll be back soon enough. Thanks again, Steve

Beautiful home across street from beach access
Very comfortable lovely home with ocean views, across street from beach access. The beach chair cart, many beach chairs, boogie boards and beach toys made trips to the beach easy and fun for the entire family. Kitchen was stocked with everything needed to cook meals and had ample seating for our family of 12. There were many additional supplies and condiments. We really appreciated the Keurig coffee pot! Nice porches with beautiful views and comfortable seating. Katie was an awesome hostess, responded promptly and answered all of our questions and even made arrangements for us to check in early! I would highly recommend the Sea Glass Cottage!

Sea Glass is 5 Stars
We had a wonderful stay at Sea Glass. The weather did not cooperate but there were a lot of things to do within walking or not a far drive. Not having not to worry about towels or linens was a huge bonus. The house was wonderfully stocked with kitchen appliances, some
Condiments and coffee. We could not have been more pleased with the house and the views of the ocean. We would definitely recommend to friends and family!

We loved staying at the Sea Glass Cottage for our first trip to Topsail. The home is beautifully decorated and fully stocked with everything you could need- a huge bonus not to have to bring everything from home. Loved the view of the ocean from the kitchen and porch and the convenience of getting to the beach from the home. Katie was wonderful and very responsive to questions or any issues. Great home in a cute beach town!
