Great Vacation Home

This place was perfect for our vacation, close to the beach and great for our dog that came with us. We unfortunately had to leave early because of Tropical Storm Debby, but we will definitely stay here again.

Spring Break

We had an awesome spring break. The house was close to the beach, cozy, and great for two families and a dog. The beach was dog friendly and our 13 year old mutt loved the beach. Would highly recommend!

Cute cottage by the beach

We really enjoyed our stay at this beach house. It has what you need for cooking and is close to a lot on the island. The listing says pet friendly and I want to note that it is an additional $250 fee per dog on top of the other non refundable fees. Just be sure to read the details for additional add ons as these fees seem to be getting higher and can add a lot onto the rental total.

Just right for 2 families

This property was just right for our small family and our brother in law, his wife, and small dog. The house was great for having kids on one side and them on the other side while also accommodating both families with a bathroom and shower. The short walk across the street and right to the beach made things really convenient with a local park two blocks down the street as well. We did try to reach out to the property manager, but never was able to get in touch with them. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend this property to other small families needing pet friendly rentals.

Love the location!

We love this street! We stayed next door 2 years ago! We had a real hard time controlling the sand in the house.. have to walk in the sand from the outside shower to get to the steps. The floor stop in the middle of the house was very much a concern as we tripped over it all Week. Love how close it is to the beach!!

Thanksgiving getaway

We picked Topsail Island because it’s less populated than other beaches closer to us (VA beach/Ocean City). We wanted to relax and enjoy family time while being mindful of the current COVID-19 outbreak. Our stay was safe and relaxing

Fantastic Getaway

This place is perfect for us. We don’t require a lot of frills, just a place to be together and get to the beach in a 2 min walk. So quaint and perfect, we loved it.
