We absolutely loved this home. The deck and the closeness to the beach just cannot be beat. If youโ€™re a beach lover this is the place for you. Also the elevator comes in clutch. Never know how much you need one but weโ€™re so glad it was there. Plenty of room for the 3 families we had there. The kitchen is very well stocked and big enough to maneuver around in. We loved our first time staying in Topsail and hope to come back next year!

Great experience.

Our family stayed at this property from 3/26/2018 to 4/6/2018. This was our first experience renting a house for a family vacation. We were very impressed with our experience. Everyone who came to visit us were also impressed. It was clean and so well stocked. We cooked almost all our meals there and never needed extra dishes or cooking utensils & pans. The beach was beautiful and the access was easy. Our granddaughters loved finding seashells. Mario was very helpful and most accommodating. We would rent this property again.

We're glad you enjoyed your stay. My wife and I cook almost everything from scratch and she's a vegetarian so we often make 2 different meals so we have to have a well stocked kitchen. Our location I believe gets the sand from the north end so we have a great beach. I did';t realize you hadn't been here before or I would have told you about the shark's teeth which are in abundance. Hope to see you again. Hope you got to make use of the herb garden under the shower!!!

Great relaxing week

Very nice house. Great access to the beach. This part of NTB has many less houses than most of it and thus a very quiet beach. Mario is was very prompt with answers to our questions and he and his wife delivered fresh baked goods to us throughout the week which were great. Would definitely stay again.

Because of a spiral staircase to the top floor I was unable to get up to that floor.

The heating system does not extend to the lower floor bedrooms, so they were very cold. No thermostats on that floor. The advertising for this property should make it clear that bed linen and bath towels are NOT provided -we arrived with none and therefore had an uncomfortable first night and had to scramble to get things the next day. The owner seemed to be a nice person.

Response from VrboOwner on 14 Dec 2021
I'm sorry you had issues with the heat. We spoke several times and texted and emailed others and you never mentioned it. If you had i could have addressed it in seconds. They are smart thermostats, and I can control them remotely. You told me about it in a text after you left and I checked and saw that they had the a/c on instead of the heat (they are heat pumps). I waited until the cleaners got there and verified that before fixing it remotely. There are 2 zoned thermostats, one for the bedrooms and half the great room and the other for the upper floor and the rest of the greatroom. I send an email to everyone with instructions and a reminder that linens are not included but you didn't open it. Having said that I agree with you that the vrbo format is not clear on linens and that's why I remind first time renters. Please let the owner know immediately of any problem or inconvenience wherever you stay, most of us want you to enjoy it not to be inconvenienced. Your daughter was supposed to send $200 for the 2 dogs and did not but I let it go for your inconvenience.

The house was dirty

We also did not realize the owners were living right next door. They were very nice people but they kept coming over. The pictures on the website were misleading in that we were under the impression we had the entire property to ourselves. I would not rent there again. We had to wipe down the bathrooms and all of the doors when we got there because it was dirty. I have rented on Topsail several times and always went through a realty. I would not rent VRBO again.

I'm sorry you were unhappy with the house even though you weren't even here. I believe you chose not to come because of the reports of Covid in NC. The site states it's a duplex and I emailed your son on 9/8 that I would see him in 3 days. As to coming over my wife bakes most days and I would knock on the door and hand it to whomever answered. All they had to do was say it was an inconvenience. The house was NOT DIRTY. I did a walk through after the cleaners finished and while I could have missed something I would certainly have seen that. It was very dirty when your party left including a blender covered with food left on the kitchen counter, unemptied trash cans and dog hair everywhere. I had to replace one of the bedspreads also and I have to guess you knew that and that's why you are asking about your security deposit (VRBO keeps it , I never see it). I don't charge for thinks like but I do want to know so that it is not an issue for the next renter. The cleaner saw it when she made the bed and I had to replace i with a new one. I had already said I would not rent to you again based on how I felt you treated the house before I saw your review

Spring Break 2021

This one was of our best vacations ever at North Topsail. We have been coming for many years and actually own a camper and lot a walk away from this ocean front house . We wanted something with room and space for our family of 5 with two teenagers and 1 toddler . The house is very spacious and our kids loved having their own space !! We actually got to meet the owners and enjoyed conversations and the great food they would bring for us to sample . Any issues that came up the owners were quick to respond and help . Really Lovely people ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ. Would defiantly want to come back !

Great Christmas vacation.

My son in law, who has stayed in more beach house, than we have, thought the house was excellent, and I did too. It's large enough and laid out well enough that an older couple and their children and two grandchildren can have lots of privacy when it's needed. The house is well equipped with any kitchen tool you could possibly need in the large kitchen. It was comfortably and pleasingly furnished as well and clean. Additionally, the hot tub was a wonderful thing to have with two little boys, especially since they couldn't go in the ocean. They used it every day. There was more than adequate parking for our two cars. We'd rent this house again, and my son in law is recommending it to his parents. We'd would also rent this house again - in any season - that elevator was a real plus for me! If you want a family beach without all the strip mall stuff and giant hotels, but with close by grocery stores, seafood markets, etc, North Topsail is your beach.

Beautiful oceanfront location

The location of the house and itโ€™s floor plan served our family very well. Beautiful beachfront location and view located on the less-busy north end of the island. Social-distancing on the beach was no problem at all. If you choose to rent linens, I highly recommend Sweet Dreams Linens and Rentals where the property owner has a package.

North Topsail Island Times, the perfect beach location

Choose this beach home if you are looking for outstanding oceanfront views with a central location to everything "beach". Two decks for lounging and a direct access walkway makes it easy to meander down to the beach. Each day was different with its own beauty. So nice to call this "home" for the week. The kitchen is very large and very well equipped. The open concept of living room, dining room and kitchen gave plenty of room for our activities. During our week, we visited the fishing pier, our grandsons first ocean fishing experience. But the big draw is the beach, beach walks, picture taking, building sandcastles, dolphin and bird watching, relaxing and taking in nature at its best and enjoying family time. You will find all of these at North Topsail Island and especially at this beautiful home. So very glad we were able to be here.

Wonderful family Thanksgiving!!

Rented this so all my children and grandchildren could gather in one place and we LOVED it! The views are spectacular, and the kitchen was the most well stocked I've ever seen. We made Thanksgiving dinner for 24 and had every pan and tool we needed. The elevator was a great help in unloading the car and for some stair challenged elders who came to Thanksgiving. The owner is very responsive and was a great help in arranging linen rental when the first company never responded. Would definitely recommend this, especially for a large group. We had lots of YOUNG children, so the stairs were scary at first, but there were baby gaits, and all went well.
Response from VrboOwner on 2 Apr 2020
Thank You!! We have been renting since 2003 and when we started we thought of what was not there when we had rented a beach house and tried to make sure if we needed it, it would be there for you. We have also tried to be responsive to input from repeat renters and that's why we put the elevator in. Hope to have you again.

Why they chose this property

We searched the NC coast for 18 months before deciding on NTB. The combination of limited public beach access and virtually no commercial propertis ensures limited access to the beach.

What makes this property unique

We have tried to equip the property with what we want not just what is necessary for rentals and visit 9-10 times per year to monitor maintenance to insure your satisfaction.Fully equipped kitchen.
