Beachside Serenity Awaits at 'Knot A Worry'"
Ahoy, future beachcombers—four-legged friends included! Set sail for a worry-free escape at "Knot A Worry," a freshly renovated island retreat tucked in the heart of Surf City on Topsail Island. This charming 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom coastal haven now welcomes dogs, making it the perfect getaway for families, friends, and furry companions alike.
Step inside and be swept away by the modern nautical decor, designed for comfort and style. The reverse floor plan offers peek-a-boo ocean views from the upper-level living area, so you can soak in the sights while swapping stories of the day’s adventures. With plush seating and open-concept design, this space is ideal for gathering your crew.
The chef-ready kitchen comes fully stocked with stainless steel appliances and all the tools you need to cook up your favorite coastal meals. Share laughs and plans around the spacious dining table, where memories are made and meals are savored.
Each bedroom is designed for ultimate relaxation. The primary suite features a king-size bed and private en-suite bath, while the other rooms offer cozy accommodations and breezy beach vibes to ensure everyone sleeps soundly.
Outside, enjoy ample parking, an outdoor shower to rinse off sandy toes and paws, and a deck perfect for kicking back in the ocean breeze. Best of all, beach access is just a short stroll away, so you're never far from the surf, sun, and salty air.
At Knot A Worry, the only thing you’ll need to fetch is your flip-flops. So grab your pack—including the pup—and get ready to drop anchor in paradise. This is one knot you'll be happy to be tied up in!

Incredible spot just a block and a half from the beach. Very kid and pet friendly. House was perfect for our family getaway. Lewis Realty was great to work with.One item to note…they only provide a complimentary starter pack of soap, toilet paper, paper towels etc. So plan to bring some with you or purchase when you arrive.
