This is the perfect spot for a family getaway. Amazing views, easy beach access right across the street, a fully stocked kitchen, and room, inside and out, for everyone to have their own space, including a nice yard and a private gazebo on the ICW. Jon makes check in and out seamless and easy and is quick to respond to any questions. My two teens have let me know this is the spot to stay when we visit N. Topsail!

Great property for friends and family. Short walk to the beach and the sound on the backside. Located a way from busy spots but close enough to shoot into town to grab what you need.

This property was perfect for our beach vacation. It was a quick walk to the beach (about a min). Was very clean! And, the kitchen had the supplies needed. We cooked in for all meals except one. The ice maker came in handy! Would recommend staying at this property!

Our Topsail vacation did not disappoint, the townhouse was perfect for my family of 5 and my parents. It had amazing views of both the ocean and the sound. Exactly what we needed to relax and enjoy family time. So thankful for this gem!

Location was great, easy access to beach and inter coastal waterway. House is beautiful with all basic amenities and full kitchen setup. Jon, the host, was very nice and responsive to questions and concerns. The only downside was the bunk bed. It made noise with every movement. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely return in the future.

We have stayed in this townhouse community before and it has the best views in North Topsail! This unit is beautifully furnished and updated. Everything is well-stocked and the hosts were easy to contact and super-friendly and helpful. We’ll be back!

This is the second time staying here and we love it.

What a great place! We were a family of 5 + 2 grandparents and we had plenty of room. The property was clean, beds comfortable and the kitchen had everything you need. It is a great location - sit on the front balcony with a view towards the ocean, then out back on the waterways. A quick hop across the street to the beach via the private HOA access point, which meant this section of the beach was relatively quiet. Jon was extremely helpful throughout the process - we had to call on him once for an item and he responded instantly. I would recommend this property to friends in a heartbeat.

This home is perfect for a family (I had my two teenage boys with me). The third floor primary suite is heavenly and views to the intracoastal and ocean make the home ideal. A minute’s walk and you’re to the beach. We cooked in for of our meals and the kitchen had everything we needed for our three night stay. The boys used the grassy common area to play and enjoyed the covered gazebo on the intracoastal in the evenings. Overall a wonderful stay!

We very much enjoyed our stay at this property. Comfortable, modern, clean and right across from the beach! The neighbors are friendly and helpful. Check in and check out are a breeze! We highly recommend this property! Thanks Jon!

I would highly recommend this townhome and would definitely book again in the future! The location is the best because you are steps away from the beach (not even a block), the road noise is quiet, it is close to Sneads Ferry and Surf City, and you have 5 views of the ocean and sound. This is our second stay at Shipwatch villas. This unit was super clean and beds were comfy. The kitchen is big and has lots of pots, pans and utensils. There is wi-fi and cable (you can plug in your streaming services to the t.v.). Appliances are all new. Floors all look new:) The only thing I might recommend is to bring more hand and dish towels. Square footage is just right and didn't feel small. The beach was not overcrowded. We never heard noise from neighbors either.

Loved this location! Owner was very responsive. Everything was wonderful!! Only suggestion: the pullout sofa mattress could use an upgrade!

We had a greattrip

We had a wonderful stay. The location is perfect for beach lovers. Just a short walk across a quiet street and we were on the beach in just 2-3 minutes. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you could possible need to make your favorite meals. Although there is no grilling allowed there is a large electric pan perfect for making hamburgers, hot dogs and steaks. The house was clean and it was a plus that the linens and towels were included and the comfortable beds made up on arrival. I highly recommend this beach house and would stay again in the future. Thanks Jon for being so responsive to inquiries.

Great location on the Sound with the ocean across the street. Beautiful views. Updated condo, clean with new appliances. Grounds were well kept. Quiet neighborhood.

This property was wonderful. Veiws of the bay in the back from 3 different levels with decks. 5 decks total. Ocean view from the kitchen. We woke up to beautiful views of the bay every morning. A few mornings while making breakfast we could see dolphins in the ocean from the kitchen deck. Beach access was about a 1 to 2 minute walk very convenient. There is a private dock, which my kids enjoyed crabbing and fishing from every day. Huge Kitchen and dining space. I loved the floor plan. Two bedrooms one bath on the first floor, Kitchen dining and family room all open on the 2nd floor, 3rd floor had a beautiful master suite with veiws to match! We had wonderful meals from the kitchen that had everything every day. The property was recently purchased so we did have a new refrigerator and washer and dryer delivered during our stay. That was a little bit of an inconvenience but not too much. The owner was very attentive and understanding. He did everything he could to make our stay enjoyable. I feel that the family that owns this property works very hard to make it A enjoyable property for renters. They definitely raised the bar and set a standard for other property’s. Very informative every step of the way. Even warned us about all the steps with my elderly parents. Very appreciated with there concern. One thing that was very important to myself was cleanliness. And this property 110% achieve that. Extremely clean!!! That made our 7 day stay Very enjoyable. I checked under every Bed,chair, table, even under the sinks and cabinets. This place was spotless, extremely clean. Not giving this rental a five star rating was a very difficult decision. Every member of my family discussed this topic and we believe it needs a few minor updates. I would like to see a clothes line for towels in the carport area because the HOA does not allow towels on the balconies. Also all my family agrees more bath towels needed and more towel racks in the restrooms needed. Drying towels and swim suits was a little challenging because of this . Other than that we have absolutely nothing negative to say about this property nothing! The beds were extremely comfortable. We all loved the beds!! I think I wanna buy a new bed down at my house. Beds were super clean ,sheets and blankets were so comfortable. So to sum it all up this is an excellent property worth renting wonderful location to provide the best of North topsail Beach! We can’t wait to stay again next summer.

This property is clean and well maintained. It does have 3 flights of steps so that needs to be considered. Sound access and beach access. Both are visible.
