Our host was incredibly responsive from months out while we were working on our pack lists to mid-stay when we had a toilet issue. Kyle sent out the maintenance staff before I even saw his response on my phone. We absolutely loved the location. We had never stayed in North Topsail and we enjoyed how quiet it was - even being near the public access on Memorial Day weekend. We were also a short drive to Surf City and all the amenities. While we did not use the playground at the park across the street, we loved that it was an option. We did go to the ice cream place several times. The pool was clean and was used a lot during our stay. The hot tub was used, but not as much. We had a few issues with the jets. It was nice that they were both serviced right before our stay and halfway through. The kitchen was well stocked and we appreciated that linens and beach towels were included! We rented chairs and beach umbrellas ahead of time from Drop In Surf, which was perfect. Thank you so much, Kyle! We will be back soon!

The host, Kyle, is quick to respond. Beautiful home in a great location. Kitchen is well stocked and lots of thoughtful details you don't find in most rentals. The heated pool and hot tub were a hit with the kids. Highly recommended.

Great location. Walkway down to the beach had one section that was a sheet of plywood that was difficult to navigate.

Our extended family had a wonderful week together in this house. It was the perfect size for our crew of 15 people - we never felt cramped and there was plenty of space for relaxing and dining together on the main floor. The 3 balconies also allowed for plenty of outdoor space to enjoy. Each bedroom had a full bathroom which was also excellent!! Note that the bedroom on the main floor has a bunk bed in it/is not exactly a “primary” bedroom (in case you are, like us, planning for a grandparent to use that room. :)) but it was totally fine. We loved the pool and hot tub, which kept us busy in between trips down to the beach! Both were serviced during our visit which ensured they were clean and well taken care of. This was our first time staying on the north side of the island and we greatly enjoyed it. Although it was further to get to Surf City, there is convenient shopping on the mainland in Sneads Ferry. The beach was lovely and not too crowded at all.There were some general upkeep needs with the house, as is common in these vacation rentals. One thing to note is the stairway down to the beach has a section that seems to be temporarily patched and doesn’t have handrails. We ended up buying bags of ice because the fridge ice maker is broken and while there are two table top ice makers, they didn’t make enough for our large crew. Not a huge deal but just to be aware.Kyle was extremely communicative and helpful. We loved our stay and highly recommend to other families!!:)
