Our stay was a quick getaway family reunion. Even though it rained throughout the entire weekend, the property had enough space to accommodate six adults. The property itself was more than comfortable. clean, kitchen well stocked, beds were clean and comfortable. Unfortunately, we did not venture out much due to the weather, but the view from the balcony was awesome.

So awesome!!!

Our party of 8 came down for a week to celebrate our daughter’s graduation from UNCW. This house worked out perfectly. The elevator made it easy for my 80 year old parents. Kristy was so quick with answering questions and made the house super comfortable. Quick access to the beach, great beach! Had the best time, can’t thank you enough Allison. Would not change a thing.

Perfect Getaway

Our family has been renting good better beach for 4 years now and we absolutely love it. It’s the perfect location with a beautiful view. We spend most of our time out on the porch where you can see the ocean and sound with a constant breeze. The beach is an easy walk. Everything is always clean and Christy is always super helpful. This rental has become a yearly tradition for our family.

Excellent!!

Everything at the house was wonderful! It was clean, well stocked/labeled cabinets etc making it easy for us to settle in. We had a work retreat with 4 folks staying at the house and another 5 joining for meetings. Everyone was so impressed with the space, N Topsail, and the comfort of the common room. Unfortunately we were under flood conditions the whole time but a huge plus: the parking pad below the house stayed clear of standing water (unlike many neighbors) so even in torrential downpour, the house stood strong and dry.Key thing to know: linens and basic toiletries are not provided so be sure to bring your own or rent/buy when you arrive.

Lovely beach access!

Our family of 6 and two friends enjoyed this comfortable, calming home. Beautifully decorated and the communication was fine. Comfy beds and pillows! Nicely equipped kitchen. Seemed to be well kept up - although while there one remote and one door lock failed; guessing it is a battery problem? Access to main deck was difficult due to rusted sliding channel. A couple of chairs need to be tightened…Overall, nothing we couldn’t work around. The only other frustration was the electricity was turned off for two hours midday while a pole was replaced outside. I will note that it is probably far easier to rent linens rather than bring sheets and towels for eight!! Wish I had opted for that. replaced outside.
