TOPSAIL ISLAND GENERAL INFO- WiFi: WiFi signal strength is NOT guaranteed at your rental for remote work or remote learning. We are located on a barrier island and do not have cellular towers on the island. This, coupled with the increase of guests in our area, creates an inconsistent cellular signal that is outside of our control and therefore, compensation is NOT given.
Beach Nourishment: Beach nourishment projects help preserve and protect Topsail Island’s shoreline. Most projects are scheduled annually between November and April and may involve large pipes on the beach, trucks moving sand, and other equipment to rebuild and maintain our dunes. Timelines and locations can shift without notice, and we are not always informed in advance. While we understand this may impact your beach experience, refunds or compensation will not be provided for disruptions related to beach nourishment. For the latest updates, we recommend checking the town websites for Topsail Beach, Surf City, or North Topsail Beach. Feel free to reach out to us if you have any questions about potential beach impacts during your stay.
Water Pressure Notice: Please be aware that during popular rental dates, especially in the mornings and evenings, there may be temporary reductions in water pressure. This is a common occurrence across the island as many visitors are getting ready for the day or returning from the beach. We recommend planning showers and other water-related activities accordingly to avoid inconvenience.
Public Parking: The Town of Surf City enforces “Pay to Park” from March 1-Oct 31 from 9:00 am - 6:00 pm in the Surf City Public Beach Access Parking Lots and other marked Public Parking Lots. The Town of North Topsail Beach will enforce “Pay to Park” from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM year-round. Onslow County operates three public parking areas/beach accesses within the Town of North Topsail Beach. To the best of our knowledge the county intends to continue operating these lots free of charge.
Leave No Trace: Topsail Island enforces a "Leave No Trace" policy in order to protect our shoreline, meaning you must remove all items, including tents and chairs, from the beach each day. Any items left behind are subject to theft, removal by the town, or possibility of being washed away by the ocean.
Turtle Nesting Season: From May to October, Topsail Island is a nesting ground for sea turtles. Be mindful of marked nests, limit oceanside deck lights, and follow local guidelines to protect them.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and 2 bathrooms, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and a dining table.

I really like the location, the house don't get me wrong was fine, just outdated on appearance, I feel like they could do so much more with the place, to make it more inviting.something to make guests feel happy when they wake up, just decor we was drab . Location is perfect outside shower with hot water perfect, area to wash off beach chairs and umbrella great, view is great too. We had a good vacation.
BE AWARE: you will not be provided with trash bags, towels, sheets, fresh air, trash bags for small trash cans or big trash cans, soap for the dishwasher, toilet paper. The description says check in is at 4:00 p.m. but this isn't the case later they surprise you with 2-hour window they can't guarantee so we had to make arrangements to leave later because we wouldn't want to get there before we were able to check in. You get charged a cleaning fee... We aren't sure what for because you're also required to clean and even put away the dishes and it's not like they clean towels or sheets because you bring your own... Speaking of bringing your own linens..We left a day early because we could no longer stand the smell of the place. If you want a vacation where it feels like you're stepping into a 1940s smoking lounge then this is the vacation for you. The smell is so pungent it permeates into all your clothing and all of your linens almost immediately. It was an absolutely uncomfortable and gross stay. There were also cockroaches and ants everywhere. Had to come home and even wash the pillows we brought because of the stench. There is also mold near the vents and peeling paint on the ceilings. If the above is doable for you, then the location is really great...you can walk to public access beach on both the Bayside and the beach side, but don't think that you can carry your kayak or stand up paddle board to access because you will have to drive it.
