This property was way more than we needed it had four bedrooms, but it allowed my son and his wife to bring their dog. The beach access is a short walk through the backyard. There was storage filled with everything you will need for the beach! Actually we needed for nothing but our food, it was nice to have a kitchen filled with good cookware, and appliances! The Host Katie was quick to reply to any questions we had . She even left us a welcome package and fresh bouquet which we appreciated, thank you! Would we stay again? YES I wish we didn’t have to leave!! ##### Chelly G. Stayed 6 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cathy P. Jun 28, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Extremely Pleased We enjoyed a delightful stay at “Clocked Out”.There was plenty of space for all to relax comfortably.The location was great with a very short walk and easy access to the beach and a nice view of the ocean from the back porch and bedroom.Our sweet doggies are family and were so happy to stay with us! …a deciding factor for booking for us. The outdoor shower with hot water was definitely a plus. The cleaning crew could have been a bit more thorough, but nothing we couldn’t remedy fairly quickly ourselves. A mirror in each of the middle bedrooms would be nice. We will definitely consider coming back and highly recommend it. ##### Cathy P. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sherri S. Dec 2, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect Thanksgiving Getaway! The very first thing you’ll notice is the cleanliness. Every thing sparkling clean, and smelling wonderful. Even though this rental is pet friendly, you would never know it. The best beach rental in the Topsail Island/Surf City area, with great ocean views, and the perfect location. Everything you need to have a memorable stay is here! Loved the well stocked and very organized kitchen. Labels make it easy to grab whatever you need, without searching, and pantry comes complete with all the various small appliances you will need. The thing we loved most was our wonderful host Katie. Friendly and a great communicator, she was there to answer all questions, and made us feel right at home. We are penciled in for next Thanksgiving! #ClockingOut ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ##### Sherri S. Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bridget B. Jul 28, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Stay Yet Again! This is our third year staying at Clocking Out. We stay untroubled and never want for anything. The kitchen has everything you need. The back deck is lovely for morning coffee or an evening glass of wine. The front porch is our spot for sunset or storm watching. The house is large and updated for a comfortable stay. Four bedrooms and two bathrooms make for flexible accommodations. Access to the beach is easy and convenient. It truly is just steps away! Under the house is nicely set up for outdoor dining and games. Katie is an exceptional host with the thought of her guests contentment at the forefront. I bet you’ll love Clocking Out as much as we do! ##### Bridget B.
