This was a perfect spot for some needed R&R. I was able to fish and read a book and just chill out while overlooking the Topsail sound. The ownerâs communication was superb and the check-in and check-out instructions were super easy. All possible resources that you may need were available and I highly recommend this home to anyone looking for a nice place to stay with breathtaking sunsets.
We love this house so much. 2nd year staying here. Kids can fish in the back yard and close walk to the beach. No steps to worry with and beds are comfortable.
Having everything on one level was so great as one member of our group has Parkinsonâs and limited mobility. It was peaceful, lots of room and private. We will definitely return!
This was perfect for our family of 4+ 2 dogs. The only minor downside was not having a sound âbeachâ because of the bulkhead, but with public access steps right next to the yard, it wasnât a big deal. Ideally situated between end of island and center of town and the ocean with handicapped access.
We were meeting family for the first time. Unfortunately our flight was delayed and we arrived in the dark around midnight. In entering the property it smelt very musty and not fresh. We found our beds had not been made. There were no duvet covers only sheets and pillowcases.
The next morning we were surprised with how dirty it was and it was so dark.
A lot of dust in the twin bedroom, shower door trims were black, toilet seat broken on one hinge, outside of the property was filthy - dirt, cobwebs, just awful. It wasnât a pleasant property. Very gloomy, dingy and dirty.
This was our 3rd time staying here! We love that it has access to the sound and that the beach is a quick walk across the street. One level is a game changer for any one with mobility issues or even if you just want to make your life easy with packing and unpacking. The cottage itself is well stocked and the view is amazing.
This house is in an amazing location. Easy access to the sound, VERY quick walk to the beach. The place is clean, super cute, and has well equipped kitchen. The screened in space is wonderful and the hosts were immediately responsive when we had a power outage. We will definitely be back!!
We had a great 3-night stay at the property which provided great sunset views and a public sound access for paddle boarding. The beds were comfortable and the screen porch was awesome during the rainstorm!
This place was perfect for our family to enjoy the water, the view, and the company. We may never rent on the ocean side again. No stairs was a big draw as we brought both our moms and our senior doggie. Old school beach cottage details were a treat.
We normally stay on the beach side but really enjoy paddle boarding on the sound and in the marsh. Public access with stairs to the sound right next to the house. Very quiet street. Comfortable home with no stairs.
This is our third time at this property and once again had a lovely time. The house is a perfect cottage, great amenities, well stocked and just very comfortable. The owners are very accommodating and responsive. Already booked for next year.
Love being right on the sound and the screened in porch! They provide items not usually provided, such as sheets, towels, paper towels and toilet paper! Short walk to the beach. Loved it!!
We enjoyed our stay at the house! This location is what makes it so wonderful. We are sound lovers so seeing the water and being able to get out there is what we care about and this did not disappoint. The house is an island original. Lovely old pine wood adorns the home. Thanks for the wonderful week!
Finding a new safe place for my mom in her 90s to visit Topsail was my mission and this cottage hit the mark. We had no problem getting to the beach. While at the same time the screen porch and view of the sound were perfect for peace and quiet
Fantastic location! You canât get any closer to the water!
We really enjoyed our stay. This cottage is in a great location just feet from the water in the sound side and short 2 block walk to the beach. We enjoyed beach time and launching paddle boards from the public access adjacent to the property. Thank you for a fantastic stay!
The location of this property was fantastic... located right on the intracoastal and only a 2-min walk to the nearest beach access point. The big window in the living room looking out over the water was wonderful, too!
We have been going to Topsail for many years and we have past it on to our three children - adults now. This old style cottage with a ship like interior makes for a fun stay. It was a bummer we could not use the long peer, But Iâm sure it will be rebuilt in time. With all the beauty in Topsail, the sunsets were just awesome to watch through the big picture window, or going out and sitting on the bench by the water! Just beautiful!!!
We loved this place. It felt like what a vacation home should be. The home was just as described and we didn't have any issues at all. We would have loved to use the pier, but we understand that things happen and take time to repair. But it was great having the sound access right next to the house. That came in handy. We paddle boarded everyday! The kids loved visiting the little islands when it was low tide. Thanks so much for a great trip. We will probably be staying here again!
The house was in a great location to beach access and sound. The house was clean. The dock out to the water could use repairs. Steps to the water would have been great. We enjoyed the view from the window for sure!! The only thing is if you have teenage children their was no WiFi.
This was the perfect place for a small family gathering. It is a true beach cottage, a bit dated but perfectly adequate and super clean. The kitchen is well equipped and 2 full bathrooms as well as a very large outdoor shower left no one waiting. The very large screened porch was basically where everyone hung out with always a great breeze.
The location is perfect with huge dock and water in the back and a 2 minute walk to the beach. The dock is in pretty rough shape and can be a bit dangerous- wish theyâre were steps to the water at the end. Only other issues; the bathroom shower doors drip onto the floors and the cleaning service should allow for more towels per person.
These are not major concerns and the owner was very accommodating and hopefully we can stay here for years to come. This is our new favorite spot!
House is well kept and in great shape. The pier is a bit worn out however. The house is very charming and we would definitely stay again. The only thing missing from this property is true outdoor seating. The house sits in a great spot and could use a nice porch or patio facing the sound to enjoy the sunsets and view. House is well stocked and is in a perfect location.
