Typical beach rental

Great location and super close to food and shops in Topsail Beach. Nice and clean!

Great stay as always

We are a family of 5 and spend the week in this home. I picked the property mainly because it had excellent ratings for cleanliness. I have to disagree with previous reviews. The house definitely needs a good deep clean. We were not able to use the older shower as it did not drain, had a horrible smell once the water hit the drain (which was filled with hair) and had heavy soap scum build up. The bathrug in the newer bathroom was dirty, the couch had stains. When I opened the dishwasher I thought the previous renter must have forgotten to use detergent because the dishes seemed just rinsed but not washed. After running the dishwasher with premium detergent pods and heaviest setting the dishes were still dirty, we ended up washing everything by hand for the rest of the week. The Keurig had mildew in the water tank. The beds were very narrow, I doubt that they are actually queen size. The mattresses were comfortable, but the comforters had not been washed. The towels and sheets had some stains and didn't feel freshly washed. The outdoor showerhead just spat out a trickle, and the older part of the deck and the stairs were borderline unsafe. We did enjoy the location, the layout of the house (although I cannot imagine it comfortably fitting 8 people) and the view. Check in and check out was easy, there are books to read and games to play. It was a quiet neighborhood and with more TLC and a better cleaner this could be a gem.
