About this property
Perfect Beach Rental with private heated pool and close beach access. 🤩
When you find a house that's carefully cleaned, conveniently located and considerately appointed, then your vacation is destined to be a great one! ShoreBreak is exactly that. We aim to make life easy so you can just pack a bag, grab some groceries and everything else will take care of itself.
We opened this house as a rental in August 2020 and we have consistently worked to make this house a place where it's easy to relax and enjoy Topsail Island. ShoreBreak is a traditional H-plan house with 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, with a central living/dining area. All of the rooms are on one floor for convenience and safety if you're worried about stairs. ShoreBreak has a pleasant screened porch that faces the ocean with an outside living and dining area, perfect for rainy days or a place to cool off from the sun. The back deck is a terrific place to look out over the new backyard pool. Our backyard is equipped with a wonderful 5 ft deep pool with a huge tanning ledge, a gas grill, picnic table and lounge chairs.
What about the beach? It's across the street! There's a well-built public access across the street. There is no public parking at Access 25 so you don't have to worry about crowds of people. You'll just see your neighbors nearby, which makes it a great place to have plenty of room on the beach with all of your family and friends.
ShoreBreak is located about 1 mile south of Surf City Pier, the general area of shops, restaurants, parks, and other activites. It's very convenient. This area is a great place to walk, run, bike and look for adventure. There are plenty of places to explore (like the pier) or to relax (at a restaurant, bar or coffee shop with live music and refreshments).
We want you and your family/friends to come to ShoreBreak and relax. Find some time to play a game or read a book. Enjoy the outdoors when you swim in the pool or find shells and sharks teeth on the beach. Grill dinner by the pool or enjoy a breeze on the screened porch. We provide a lot of amenities to make your vacation simple. And if you're planning on a day on the beach, we provide a beach wagon, chairs, buckets, and boogie boards for your convenience.
What is an H-style house? Well, it's a common house plan that was used on Topsail Island when civilians started building more vacation homes. (You'll have to look up Operation Bumblebee and find out the history of Topsail.) On the north side of the house, there is a bedroom with a king bed and a bedroom with a queen bed and a bathroom in between. On the south side of the house, there is a bedroom with a queen bed and a bedroom with a bunk bed (twin over double, over twin trundle) and a bathroom in between.
We provide: bed sheets, bath towels, beach towels, toilet paper, paper towels, trash bags, cooking basics, some cleaning supplies, and a first-aid kit.

We had the absolutely best time at our beach house. The house was spotless and the pool was such a fun time. It literally is right across the street from the beach. Trudy and Mark have dine a superb job. I cannot say enough great things. We will be back.
The house was in a great location - across the street from beach access, with a heated pool for when you’re not in the mood for salt and sand. There are lots of great food options nearby for cooking or eating out. We had a great time!
Our annual family vacation has traditionally taken place at one of Mark and Trudy’s beach homes. Over the years we have built traditions and made memories in Surf City and their homes. We recommend anyone who wants a small home for their family, with close beach access, a pool and a personal touch from Mark and Trudy.
This is our second time staying at Shorebreak, and we loved it! Easy walk to the beach across the street, and a beautiful, clean pool in the backyard for when you need a break from the ocean. The home itself is well appointed, very clean, and felt like home away from home! Very close to town as well. Highly recommend this home!
Beautiful, we’ll maintained house - every inch of the house (indoors and out) is maximized for utility and comfort. Absolutely the most well-appointed and well-stocked of any vacation hours we’ve ever rented - every staple already on hand. Great location, great place, great owners, etc!
This place is very well appointed. Owners are easily obtainable but not overbearing. Loved the one floor plan and layout. The place would seem small based on the square footage but it totally worked for 8 adults and 2 children. Pool outside is awesome. Lots of equipment to be used. How well this is equipped made it easy for us since we had 2 couples flying in. Made it a lot less to pack.
We had an awesome time on our annual family getaway. Our group consisted of adults and young children. This was our first time staying here, but hopefully not our last. The house is exactly as described and exceeded our expectations. Super convenient to the public beach access & private pool- what else do you need?! The pool/beach/outdoor toys were a fun bonus that the whole family enjoyed. It was so convenient to have extra chairs, floats, etc. The home owner had great communication and gave very clear instructions. I highly recommend staying here.
We had an amazing vacation this week. This home is perfect - there were 9 of us in total with a range of ages (kids aged 4 - 14). We were all able to stay and sleep here comfortably. The house was spotless and it had everything! And I mean everything! Laundry detergent, paper towels, toilet paper and all the kitchen necessities you needed to cook at home. The bed were very comfortable. The owners were responsive and kind. We would highly recommended this place to stay and honestly cannot wait to go back. The area was beautiful- beaches were amazing and plenty of places to eat and entertain you.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was better stocked than any other property we've stayed at over the years. There were so many things for the outdoors: bikes, tons of boogie boards, rafts for the pool, beach towels. Kitchen had everything we needed. It was especially nice that there was enough paper towels, toilet paper, kitchen soaps to last the week so that we didn't have to worry about it. The pool was very refreshing and there was plenty of seating. It was so nice being so close to the beach.
We appreciate how clean the entire house was. The owners have thought of everything! Thank you for a wonderful stay!
Loved the beaches and how relatively empty they were for a holiday weekend. House was perfect for our all adult fam of 7 (3 kids, 2 married). The pool was great and the outdoor spaces were some of our favorites. Would love to visit again!
This was the perfect Beach rental for our family. We loved all the amenities included with the house. The beds were really comfortable. Our kids took advantage of the pool every day we were there. Beach access was really close to the house. We were able to bike to the heart of surf city. The screened in porch was also really nice. I highly recommend this place.
A wonderful time in Surf City! The house was clean, ready for us, and instructions were clear. They had everything we needed to have a wonderful stay, including a wagon to transport 'beach-things' to the beach, beach chairs, floaties... The pool was a perfect add to our beach stay. We really couldn't ask for more. We'll be back!
Fantastic location! Everything we needed was available at the house, minus a single trip to the grocery store. Plenty of dishes, kitchen appliances, all of the necessities you need on vacation but forget to pack or decide you'll purchase there...Trudy and Mark are 10 steps ahead of you and have it there when you arrive! The beach access is just across the street, private pool in backyard. We are already planning our next trip to ShoreBreak!
We had another beautiful Fall vacation on Topsail Island! The house is just as described, in a great location, and, as always, these hosts provide a very well appointed and clean property. Can’t wait to return!
Lovely home, very clean and well stocked to guarantee a stress free and comfortable stay. The beach access is across the street and the owners have thought of all the little comforts that make a stay at the beach a happy one. Thank you, we will be back!
Our family (kids ages 6 & 2) had a great getaway! The house is perfectly located steps from the beach access on a quiet part of the island. The house was super clean and had everything needed to have a great trip! We look forward to staying again in the summertime.
We can not recommend this house enough!
We absolutely couldn't imagine finding a better place to stay. The house was perfect and so much kitchen space. The walk to the beach was so quick even our two year old didn't mind. Amazing pool, and the screened porch was the perfect place to relax every evening. This is the second time we have rented from Trudy and we have been so impressed with her hospitality. It is evident how much thought she has put into make this a great place to visit.
The only one thing I was upset about when I booked my trip was the fact it was advertised having a pool and hot tub that’s why I choose the property, after I booked and paid somewhere along the line the hot tub was removed and therefore I probably wouldn’t of paid that much but it was advertised having a pool abs hot tub which were the selections I requested when making my beach rental decision but the house was beautiful nice and clean
We had an amazing vacation celebrating a sweet 16 and family. The owner was very responsive and a pleasure to communicate with. I recommend this home highly. The living area was clean and they thought of everything from games to cooking needs. We enjoyed the pool , finding shark teeth, long walks and biking. The ping pong table was wonderful. This house was beyond our expectations.
