Better than expected! Pictures on line do not do this place justice - this place has been updated. VERY clean! Three bedrooms and two full baths on main level. Downstairs has a play room, another nice full bathroom and a washer and dryer. Kitchen was fully stocked (microwave, toaster, blender, coffee pot, crock pot, mixer, plenty of dishes and pans). Books, games, toys, and beach chairs were available. Excellent location! Beach was across the road and the sound was a short walk. We will definitely stay here again!

Loved the property and view

The house was good. Proximity to beach is great. Public access is very close. Read some other reviews ,mentioning the neighbor's dogs. They are barkers but they did try to minimize the issue. Overall our stay was good. Thank you

nice home and great location to take the family

Love this property, the location is at the end of the island giving us a great route to walk around the northern edge of the island. The home is beautiful. It is on the corner with enough yard for our dogs to play in and so many windows letting in the beach atmosphere. It was very quiet and peaceful for us during our stay as there is hardly any through traffic. The home was totally stocked with everything you might need for a stay at the beach from coffee filters, to charcoal for the grill, to towels for your pets. I want to stay here again.

Great

The house had only the bare essceials in kitchen.I looks like it was decorated from a thrift store.The linen's were not clean and were so thin you could see the material in the mattress.

The pictures don't do this place justice... the views are spectacular. The home is directly across the street from the ocean and a short walk to the public access. The home is clean and had everything we needed for a week at the beach... towels, boogie boards, grill, games, movies, even basic spices! The kitchen had everything we needed, although we would have loved a full-size coffee pot and blender. We cooked our fresh catch from a morning of fishing on the Vonda Kay one night, made a sun catcher for the living room, napped, listened to music, watched movies, walked the beach and chatted with the neighbors. We spent most of our time on the front porch, which was breezy, covered from the sun and had lots of seating options. It was a great spot to chill out with the dog after long days on the water. Views of the ocean are magnificent, even though the house is across the street. I'd move here in a minute if I could. Thank you for sharing your home with us. We hope to be repeat customers!!

Had a great time w/very good views front front porch. The small basement not advertised was great for our dog kennel,etc & the grandkids enjoyed the game room.

We had a fantastic time at Topsail with our eight year old and doggo. The unit is clean and comfortable with lots of activities for kids. Ours loved the game room downstairs. The unit was also well stocked with all the beach stuff you could ask for--chairs, towels, tote bags, sandcastle toys, kites, and boogie boards. The kitchen has a lot of supplies too. We liked being on the quiter end of the island away from the condos and resorts. Our dog had plenty of yard to walk around (on leash) and she and the neighbor dogs barked a bit at each other but all quickly quited down. This is definitely a place where a family and pooch can kick back and relax. If we head Topsail way again, we will look to rebook.

We had a wonderful vacation! Location to beach was closer than expected. Public access was just a short work down the street. Loved that the beach was not crowded at all. We appreciated that beach chairs were already at the house and we didn’t have to bring those along on our trip. We made use of the game room one evening when it was rainy. Kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. The only draw back was the very small 4 cup coffee maker was in desperate need of cleaning. The water tank was filthy. We opted to just buy a cheap 12 cup coffee maker at Dollar General. Other than that everything was perfect! We will definitely plan on coming back again in the next few years!

Overall we enjoyed our stay. Communication with the owner was great! This is a home split into 2-units. The unit beside does have 3 dogs, who bark at passing people. But so do my dogs, so it didn’t bother us. Plus, as like we do, they put the dogs inside when they bark. Very short walk to the beach. We found a lot of shark teeth.

I vacationed with my family which included 4 adults and one older teenager plus 2 dogs. We had plenty of room and were very comfortable. The neighbors’ dogs barked a bit but so did mine, and it certainly didn’t interfere with sleeping. The beach was beautiful and easy to get to. My son enjoyed surf fishing each morning and I loved sunbathing and beach combing. There were plenty of dishes and cook ware, but I would have liked a bigger coffee pot. Overall the place was wonderful!

The stay at the house was awesome, the location Is very nice if you prefer to have a more secluded location at the beach. The porch has a great view of the ocean and is super relaxing. The interior of the house is amazing, not what I was expecting at all, the bathroom even had extra disposable items if you forgot anything at home. Really felt like a home away from home, would stay again!!

Hated to leave

House has everything and is clean. Right at the inlet, so perfect for fishing or shelling. Such a great vrbo!

I have to say this is a difficult review to write. I own a Abnb myself so I know how important positive reviews are. I usually stay on the Southern end of the Island. I am looking to relocate and thought the North end would be worth experiencing . First , the house was sweet . Tastefully decorated and the lay out was perfect for us. The bathrooms were all newly upgraded . You can tell they love their home. It was cleaned prior to our arrival but I am not sure with what . It had a strong chemical smell. Maybe it was exterminated ?!! I am highly allergic to chemicals and had a hard time breathing the first two days. AC didn’t work but it was April and the fresh air helped with the odor and my breathing . The only big down fall was the “ neighbors “ on the other side of the duplex. They own their side. Many people live there and many Dogs! Now i had my fog with me but he is tr as trained to not bark in the house and on command. Their dogs bark excessively! I am a dog person but while on vacation with my Mom whom is recovering from a mastectomy it was NOT peaceful . The dogs barked at 4 AM until evening .It was really disrespectful . There was no getting away from their barking dogs nor their cigarette smoking. We needed rest and It was not healing with the neighbors. They think they own the entire place. For the house , it was great. The neighbors …. I would not go if you need to rest . The duplex is not one in the photo. It would be nice if a accurate photo of the house was posted on VRBO site and not the ones across the street.

I can’t express enough how wonderful this stay was. The ease of finding it and getting settled. The view and location were spot on! Super friendly neighborhood. We were worried about our dogs but there turned out to be a dog in just about every home around us which put us at ease. Beach was close enough we made multiple trips a day lol it was prefect. We did find a few sharks teeth. The home itself was spacious their were four adults one kid, two dogs. Everything you needed was there. Thank you so much to Eileen and Jack for sharing your beautiful relaxing place on the beach. We definitely plan to stay again ☀️🌊❤️

Home had everything we needed for our stay. Great access to the beach. We loved the location! Very relaxing atmosphere.

Great location and views. Lots of the usual things + where the rental really shines are the little additions that are not expected, but made for a wonderful trip. The kids loved using the plug-in flashlights that are also nightlights. The copious books and games available were great. Little things go a long way, and we had a great time in the rental.

We really enjoyed our stay! The house was extremely clean and the bathrooms were newly updated. There wasn't a picture of the 3 bathrooms in the listing, so I thought they might be dated, but they were lovely. The inside was bright, open, and relaxing. There is lots of counter space and plenty of cooking supplies in the kitchen. I am a bit of a germaphobe, so we packed our own towels, sheets, and blankets, but if I ever went again, I wouldn't bother. The towels and sheets were obviously freshly cleaned. FYI, one of the twin beds is a trundle bed. It probably said that somewhere but I didnt look closely enough. It was fine for us, just didn't expect it. Our favorite place was the front porch where we sat for hours looking at the pond, Inlet, and ocean. When we got back from the beach and hosed off the dogs we would sit there in the breeze with them while they dried. Speaking of the dogs, they loved their vacation! There were so many dogs in the neighborhood and dogs are allowed on the beach all the time. We did bring 2 sofa covers because we were worried the "no furniture" rule would be a challenge for the dogs. After kicking both dogs off twice, they got the picture and didn't try again. You CAN teach old dogs new tricks :) . I was still glad for the covers though, because one of the sofas is totally white. It was nice that we didn't have to worry about that sofa with the cover on. We appreciated how close the beach access is and what a unique setting North Topsail Island is. One day there was a lot of rain and a tiny bit came into the "basement" under the door. I wanted to let the property manager know to look at that in the future. She immediately replied to my text, so I have no doubt that if someone had a problem they would have help right away. We don't have young kids but there was a nice play area downstairs near the laundry area with fun toys and they had books and games in a closet. I chose a romance novel to read on the beach. I will look back fondly at this trip. No complaints here!!! Thank you for having us.

We enjoyed the quiet peaceful house. The walk to the public beach access was not too far away.

Excellent location and beautiful home

The house was a perfect size, well stocked kitchen, and easy walk to the beach.

As said in the title, everything is as described in the property details. I’ll add the size of the property is great to accommodate comfortably a group of 6 people and all in one level. The house is kept in pretty good condition, it was clean and welcoming. Except the kitchen, everything has been updated in the house. My family and I definitely will come back for a longer stay, when visiting North Topsail. I

This was an enjoyable getaway for our family after we’d been cooped up due to covid. Location is at very top of island and views are beautiful! Owners are very nice and responsive.Crews are working on the beach so there are some access point areas that are off limits. We had to pay to park in a beach area farther south since the access points were unavailable due to repairs. Property has some updates to it but it’s an older unit so has some older appliances. Yard was not cut because lawnmower needed to be repaired and there were lots of prickly weeds so we had to take our dog to other areas. They did tell us about the yard prior to check-in that day. Overall, was what we needed for a few days!

Easy check in, close to beach.

Great location. Really enjoyed the beach access.

Such a cute beach house! It had just what we needed and the owner was super helpful and nice to work with. Loved the front porch that overlooked the pond! Spent a lot of time out there reading.Our kids loved the game room downstairs. They had a great time playing pool!It was an easy walk to the beach and to the sound. Will definitely book this house again!

We booked this property for a fishing trip. It suited our needs very well. It was reasonably priced and close to seaview pier and the inlet for fishing. It was nice and clean and stocked very well. It was just as described.
