Janet was great to deal with and we were lucky to have a place to stay since our other rental fell through!
5.0 / 5.0
This home has a fantastic location on a quiet section of Topsail. There was plenty of space for all of our family, with 3 full baths and a 1/2 bath. Even an outdoor enclosed shower as a bonus. The deck and covered porch are fantastic for relaxing when you need a break from the sun. Kitchen is well stocked, also. The host is super accomodating and helpful, with very quick replies. Would absolutely come back!

This property accommodated a large group (14) easily. The beachfront and large porches made viewing both sunrises and sunsets a delight. Outdoor shower on the deck was great. Kitchen (2) were well stocked and accessible. Plenty of bathrooms. Laundry room was great. It was comfortable and made for a delightful stay.

We truly enjoyed our time in this home! The view of the ocean was absolutely gorgeous and the back porch was amazing with plenty of seating and a roomy outside shower. The kitchen was fully equiped with everything we needed plus lots of extras. We felt the location was perfet with shops and restaurants, coffee, ice cream, seafood on one end, then Surf City the other way with much more to see and do. The beach was easily assessible and so private, we absolutely loved it! Although the home is older we felt it had everything we needed and accommodating for our family needs. Thank you Janet for sharing your home for us to enjoy, we are greatly aprpreciative!

More accurate details of property
There was not stairs leading to basement from inside of property. In order to go do laundry or get to 3 bedrooms you have to go outside and down stairs. Very inconvenient and separated the family.

Excellent family beach rental
This place worked great for our family! Loved that it's on the beach and had ton of beach gear available to use (chairs, umbrellas, sand toys and bodyboards) It comfortably slept 12 of us. The separate downstairs was great for us because had two young kids that still napped during the day and given the separation didn't feel like everyone else had to be quiet to accommodate nap time. I could see it being a great place for teens who want to be away from the adults as well. It was clean, had a well-stocked kitchen for cooking, and had lots of beach chairs, umbrellas, sand toys and other beach stuff to use. We would stay here again!

Great Location
You can't beat the location and the proximity to the sand and water. As you can see from the pictures, it is a little dated and is in need of some maintenance items....I'm sure the salt air is a constant battle. Mostly clean but the broiler tray under the stove looks as though it hasn't been cleaned in years. If you are looking for a place with the best location and can overlook the age and maintenance items for a week, then you will be happy with this house. We enjoyed are week!

Great location with lots of beach supplies
We had a great time at this rental house. It has a lot of bedrooms and tons of beach chairs and umbrellas that we appreciated. Access to the sound was great, we fished and used the crab pots and caught ourselves a great meal. As noted in other reviews, the only way to go between the 2 levels is by going outside. Most of the time this was no big deal but when it was raining hard that was a little frustrating. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed for meal preparation. We had a great time.

Comfortable beach house
Property as pictured; very flexible space for a large group. Amazing beach and sound access. Lots of time on the decks taking in the views and sounds of the ocean.

Amazing Location. Could use Deep Clean and Basic Maintenance.
Amazing location; house is closer to the beach than pictures indicate. While too small for a party of 16, we enjoyed the deck — do wish the deck table sat more than 4. The outdoor shower was well used. The kitchen is almost too well equipped as there was no room for pantry items. I wish the property description highlighted the home’s 2 floors are accessed via an outdoor, uncovered, steep staircase — problematic when a monsoon hits while doing laundry and, depending on the age composition of your party, regarding separating kids from parents. The basement is dark with minimal natural light, so some may be jealous of the top floor’s ocean views/sounds/smells. My concerns are the house needs basic, routine maintenance, BEFORE guests check in, and a good deep cleaning. Only after we arrived did the owner advise of no working outlets in a master bedroom and a broken toilet, citing a hurricane from a month earlier. We booked the property post hurricane so I was surprised to find out after we arrived. Safety hazards included a missing railing on the deck (large enough for a child to walk though), loose deck railings, raised nails throughout the deck floorboards and in the outdoor shower bench, and a painful electric shock to an adult while trying to turn on a lamp that was left ‘switched on’ with no light bulb and plugged in. Numerous lights throughout the house, including the main motion detector light that lights the entry staircase, were out. Generally the house wasn’t very clean: significant dust and gunk — including on the kitchen countertops, microwave, knife block —- and sand in the window sills. Especially during COVID, was surprised by the lack of cleanliness. After defending the cleaners, the owner offered to send a cleaning crew, a handyman, and to buy needed supplies, after we developed an inspection list of needed items. Given COVID, we specifically paid extra for an oceanfront beach house so we could minimize contact with others. We let the handyman address the outdoor safety issues; we didn’t allow cleaners / handyman in the main living areas due to COVID concerns (plus I had already cleaned with my products as there were no disinfecting products in the house). It was irksome to go on vacation, be requested to develop a punch list for cleaners/handyman, and to coordinate their activities. A walk through + maintenance between guests is an easy way to ensure a relaxing experience in a clean, safe, oceanfront home.

Great house and set up for a large family
Trip was great and house was accommodating to our large group. Had some issues at the end of the trip about extra cleaning needed (and paid for out of pocket even though it wasn’t specific as to what was wrong but didn’t want to argue). A mirror had fallen off the wall while getting into the closet and we told the homeowners about it. Vrbo insurance covered it and then got an email about other things that were broken from the insurance company. These things were like this when we arrived and it was normal wear and tear on items that were used by other guests, such as beach chairs. Overall it was a great trip, and the house was equipped with everything needed, even pots big enough to have a seafood dinner. A not so fun ending.

Great location - beautiful wide beach
The owners have thought of everything! Great location, casual cottage, well equipped. We have stayed closer to Surf City and liked this quiet end of the island better.

Great get away! Hurricane Isaias to boot....
Janet and DeeDee (owner and care taker) and Mom & Me (who we rented our linens through) were hugely responsive to our needs from the Tropical Storm Isaias from the very get-go. Most appreciative of the fast turnaround on getting this lovely beach-house back to where it needed to be after the storm went through. Other than the excitement of the storm, this was a very relaxing week for our family and friends. We hope to be back soon!

Great location
Our stay began with a few cloudy and rainy days, though the kids didn’t mind. The adults enjoyed the large covered back deck just steps from the ocean, without its rocking chairs and swing. The owner thoughtfully brought us a new game to play, which the family loved. The weather turned, the Sun came out, and all was good again.

Perfect Family Rental!
We loved our stay at Janet’s home! The property is beachfront, which was the #1 draw for us! It was so awesome to walk straight off the porch into the sand. Actually, I think the home is closer to the beach then the pictures make it feel. You could walk right back up on the deck, wash off your feet and relax on the porch. Speaking of the porch, I absolutely loved having a covered porch. In the heat of the day, it was awesome to just relax there and watch the waves. The property is just a little over a mile to the south end of topsail. We walked to the pier and also walked to the little gift shops and the Quartermoon coffee/book shop. It was just like a 10 minute drive up to surf city. We enjoyed eating at daddy Max there in shopping in the cute tourist shops. We stopped at the Harris Teeter before going to the home and picked up groceries and we were stocked for the week! The top floor is completely separate from the bottom floor and you have to go outside to get to the basement. This was probably the one thing that we didn’t love, but it really wasn’t a big deal at all. The basement also had an additional refrigerator which was great since we had a large group. something I didn’t remember seeing in the pictures that we were pleasantly surprised by was a ping pong table in the basement and tons of beach chairs! The kids are entertained for hours at night and it was so nice to be equipped for the beach! Probably the thing I liked the most about this rental for a large group was the number of bedrooms. A lot of times houses that sleep a lot of people have a few rooms with tons of bunkbeds or sleeping in common areas. This home has six private bedrooms. The seventh bedroom is can be closed off to be private, but you have to go through it to get out of the basement. We didn’t even need to use the bed or pull out bed in the basement. There are 3 full bathrooms and an outdoor shower, so plenty of room for everyone! The patio furniture was high quality and comfortable. I would call this home “no frills.” It’s tastefully decorated and well equipped- but not fancy. We are perfectly good with that! But, if you are looking for high end finishing, this is not the place for you. If you are looking for a family friendly beach front home, this one is for you! I hope to come back soon! :)

Perfect location
The house has a perfect location, the ocean is only a few steps away from the front of the house. The kitchen has everything we needed to cook for a large group. Communication with owner was good.
We are sorry to mention a few things that were not so positive. Reliability issue: Owner promised to refund us part of the cleaning fee but the refund has never arrived.
Accuracy issue: Downstairs area has two actual bedrooms. The garage was converted to a living room with a sofa bed. The third bedroom downstairs contains the main entrance to the entire unit and is difficult to sleep in.
Cleanliness: The entire house needs a thorough cleaning and/or fresh paint. Windows covered with mold, window sills filled with sand, cabinets dirty etc.

Family beach week 2019
My family and I had a great week! The location was great; easy access to the beach that was very important because we had small children and older adults with difficulties getting around. The kitchen was stocked adequately for all of our meals. The beds were comfortable and plenty of room for our large group. We were surprised there was no access to downstairs from the inside of house but we just kept small children in the rooms upstairs. Everyone loved the home and hope to stay here again.

Great first trip to the ocean
We drove up from South Dakota for my kids first trip to the ocean. The house was exactly how we expected it, comfortable, felt like home, and great view of the ocean from the living room and two of the bedrooms.
I communicated with the owner on Vrbo, and also through email and text, she was great to work with and had some good ideas for activities. Our favorite part of each day was coming in from the beach and enjoying the heated, enclosed outdoor shower. We had a great time and would recommend this property to others.

Great family vacation home
Although we were not aware that the downstairs is only accessible from the outside, it ended up working great for us. Awesome beach and it was really nice having access to the sound. Would definitely rent again!!

excellent place to stay
I really enjoyed the property. It is well kept and the owner is super nice and responsive. We have been coming down to Topsail for years and this was one of the first places we stayed that was clean, well stocked and that the owner actually wanted us to have a great stay, so much that they came by and introduced themselves to us. I really appreciate the personal contact and warmth of the owner. If you want a quiet well maintained place, this is the house. They didn't have a lot of extras like a hot tub, elevator or things like that but we didn't want those items. What we got was just what the doctor order, relaxation a nice house to stay in and a beautiful view of the ocean. we sat on the deck night after night just enjoying Gods creation. Thanks so much
