June vacation

This house has a good location. The kitchen had every pan and gadget you would need. It was the perfect size for the four of us. There was 3 beds upstairs if we needed them. Would love to stay here again.

July visit

Family of four enjoyed our visit in July. Love this section of Top Sail. Appreciated the beach chairs, sand toys, boogie boards and extra beach towels that were available! No issues with home, just needed to buy trash bags and dishwasher soap, which I left for the next family.

Check in was smooth. Communication with owner was great. The location of the house is perfect. Public beach access one block away. Yes you can hear the ocean sitting on the front porch. Restaurants etc less than 2 miles so convenient yet quiet . Very relaxing. Will stay again...

Great location.

Location was close to public access and to restaurants. The home could use some updating. The living room has old, uncomfortable furniture and the large bathroom could use better shades because you can literally see into the bathroom Fromm the driveway. That said we truly enjoyed our stay. The ovean and weather was beautiful.

Great find!

This house was a perfect find!! Just a short 2 minute walk to the beach in a stretch that seemingly was full of locals, we had a quarter mile of the beach to ourselves! The house was perfect for our needs, clean and when we had some trouble connecting to the wifi- the response was quick and the issue was troubleshooted. The hose/shower combo outside was wonderful to hose down the sand after the beach. Close to the park if you have kiddos, in a super dog-friendly area. Topsail is our new favorite place- and the house certainly helped us in the new ranking! We hopefully will be back to his house!

Location perfect

The location can't be beat. In-between public access 5 and 6. 2 min walk to beach. Playground within 2 min also. Had to communicate to locate grill and about missing basics like toilet paper, dish soap, hand soap, paper towels that the cleaning crew claim to have left for us but weren't there. Walmart delivery came in handy. We stayed during hurricane Debby unfortunately not within control of anyone. We enjoyed our short stay and will be back.

Outdated But Affordable

Stepped back in time but it was clean and affordable. Bushes in driveway were extremely overgrown and if you drove into parking area under house they would scratch your vehicle. Made the owner aware and was quick to respond he would look into but they were definitely an issue. Good for the money and was close to the beach. Satisfied, but I’m a simple guy more hung up on price.

Need new window coverings for the bathrooms

The property was clean. The property managers were very responsive and check in was simple. Some of the furniture was a bit old but functional. One of the mattresses was very uncomfortable and needs to be replaced. My biggest complaint is that the shades covering the bathroom windows are useless at night. Anyone standing outside at night can clearly see everything. Be sure to cover the windows if you don’t want the neighbors watching you shower. I saw that this has been mentioned in other reviews but obviously has not been corrected. That’s why I gave an overall rating of 3 stars instead of 4. After getting an air mattress and covering the windows we enjoyed our stay.

July 2024 vacay

This was an overall great home for the price. Check in process was great! The location was good, close to the public access with just a short walk. The loft bedroom was bigger than I expected, it’s very spacious which the picture doesn’t really show. Clean and basically well maintained, but I only have one complaint/concern: Both bathrooms have shades that can be seen through from outside when the lights are on. This was very concerning for me as one bathroom faces the street with a very large window. We discovered this when my teenage son was in that shower and we were walking in from outside! We hung up a queen size sheet. I did send the owner a message and they were actually already aware but didn’t get around to changing them. I noticed that someone commented this last year as well.

Nice week-long stay

We enjoyed our stay and found it clean and well stocked except for toilet paper (a partial roll in each bathroom). Location was as described and a short walk to the beach access. The temperature inside was warm especially upstairs so we utilized extra fans to help. Would stay again!
