It's easy to rock the day away in one of the many sound side rockers in a beautiful setting, maybe see a boat or two go by on the sound. If you prefer the relaxing roar of the ocean , pick up a few rays in the lounge chairs or take in the sunrise and have your morning latte at the dining table on the oceanside decks.

Family Gathering
This spacious and well equipped ‘ home away from home ‘ provided everything our family was looking for such as immediate proximity to the beach, ample space to congregate, entertain, play games and dine. Too bad we were only able to spend a week!

An Oasis of calm and rejuvenation
Very comfortable beds and seating! Loved all of the outdoor seating and private spaces!! Kitchen had everything you could possibly need for all meals! We were ages 2-71 and we all had an amazing week! All I wanted for my birthday was to see dolphins and I did, the only day while we were there!! Great birthday dinner at High Water, educational visit to the Turtle hospital and yummy ice cream near the skating rink!! So much to do at the house too, went to the pool twice, great walks, foosball games! Disappointed we didn’t know how to work arcade, probably operator error!! Beach is amazing and clean!! Thank you for sharing you 5 star home!!!!

Great family time at the Flip Flop Inn
13 adults and 2 kids had a wonderful time at the Flip Flop Inn! Lots of room for the entire family to gather, plus spots for individual private time as well. The kitchen has everything you could possibly need to make a great family meal. Huge TV, lots of games for downtime. The volleyball court was a great plus for our athletic family. We’re not big “fishers”, but it is a good place if you like to fish (with cleaning station), but could be overwhelming and intrusive (lots of fishermen) if you’re not. Overall, very nice stay and recommend!

Family reunion/Celebration of life
In one word, WOW!! The Flip Flop Inn was the perfect beach house for our Covid-postponed family gathering. It is as spacious and fully equipped as described; the owners have thought of everything and were very helpful answering questions before we arrived. We felt at home from the moment we walked in. Sixteen of us were easily accommodated and we hope to return next year.

We Love Topsail!
The Flip Flop Inn is a great property! We had plenty of room and great beach access. The owners take great care to prepare their guests, and check in to make sure everything is as it should be.

About the host

Hosted by North Topsail Oceanfront Rentals

Host profile image
We are Robert (Bob) and Susan Frank and live in Wake Forest, NC after 30+ years of living in Raleigh, NC. Our family built our 7-bedroom, "Flip Flop Inn" and purchased the (5 bedroom) "Pearl by the Sea" a few years ago and right next door. The Flip Flop Inn has a volleyball court in the backyard that is shared w/ the Pearl. Both are amazing homes and great for large or small groups.

If you have questions, or flying in and need options for airports, please ask, as happy to answer. I'm sure you'd love the Flip Flop Inn . Need additional space or perhaps a bit less...the Pearl by the Sea also part of northtopsailoceanfrontrentals. is right next door.

I'm sure you'd love our little Village of Stump Sound Community and the Flip Flop Inn!!

Why they chose this property

We purchased the property in the 90's and eventually decided to build. The Flip Flop Inn is the most amazing beach home and built w/ love, so quite different than your typical rental home.
