We recently stayed at this VRBO on Topsail for two nights. The hosts were great with communication, which we really appreciated, and the deck and railings appear to have been updated recently. Unfortunately, the overall experience fell short of expectations.The photos of the property are somewhat misleading, as the interior shows considerable wear and tear. The home definitely fits more of a “budget stay” description. Several areas inside the house need attention—floors feel uneven and spongy in places, and the beds are not sturdy, with one headboard not even attached. The mattresses were also uncomfortable.The bathrooms in particular need maintenance. In the master bath, both the shower and sink have been painted with what appears to be refinishing paint, but it’s peeling and delaminating. The guest shower only had warm water, not hot.If you’re looking for a rustic beach-vibe stay and are comfortable with a more worn-in, budget-friendly property, this place might still work for you. However, for travelers expecting the condition shown in the listing photos or seeking a more polished, comfortable experience, this rental may be disappointing.

Nolan has thought of everything you could need and we didn't have to run out for staples like paper towels, TP, soap, detergent etc. he had these and all other household basics plus extras there: fans, baby gates, all the items on the listing were there and worked. We checked to see if the bikes had survived the rental crowd over the summer and he made sure they were in good shape before we arrived. This was so fun! Kitchen was fully stocked for cooking. Also great was all the beach stuff: wagon, umbrellas, boogie boards, cooler-- saved space in our car and must haves at the beach! You don't have to walk far at all to the beach, and it's a nice flat sandy beach with houses, no high rises. Love being in a little neighborhood of houses and you're only a mile from shops and the pier. The sunsets on the back deck over the sound are lovely. It's on a busy road but it's not fast traffic and you can't hear the cars inside. Furniture inside the house is in excellent shape -- beds are solid, mattresses clean and solid/soft, pillows pristine and all the bedding in new condition. Sectional sofa looks/feels new and is super comfy! Streaming/TV is great! Wifi works great and my kids kept up with online college courses while there. Thick fluffy towels all provided, (beach and bath). Outdoor shower in great shape. Hot water heater kept up with our family and we have 4 girls! Felt like a safe, good neighborhood, and Nolan was easy to communicate with and so helpful!

This was the perfect little beach house for our trip. It is so close to the ocean and was so easy for us to just walk over whenever we wanted to go to the beach. The patios were really nice to sit out on too!

We just finished our stay and overall had a great vacation! I am going to write a very honest and detailed review because I look for those myself when booking houses. If I were rating the house itself I would give it 3 stars but due to the location I am giving it 4.Pros:Super close to beach- 1.5 block walk- the BEST part about this rental! Owners provided great communication prior to our stay and after (we did not complain about anything so they did not need to respond during our stay)AC works well (not the case for many beach rentals)Large covered porch (although wish this was on the ocean side of the house)Rocking chairs on porch Deck isn’t wood- no splintersMaster bed has pillow top and is comfortable (a Queen- no room for a King)Did not hear the main road (we use sound machines)House clean upon arrival Beach toys/floats/boogie boards for our use Cons:No dishwasherNo dog crates or gates so dogs can’t come on decks without using chairs to block Very little counter space or cabinet space to store items we brought No extra sheets anywhere and only 2 extra blanketsFloor spots soft in many places due to water damage Glass door broken making it bang repeatedly with the windNo fenced in yard or pool VERY small house Nowhere to hang wet items without them blowing away No TVs in bedrooms- we resorted to watching tv on our phones in bed which was a bummerHammock is broken- can’t sit in itShower heads very short- had to duck to shower Thanks!

Very good location, easy walk to the beach. Photos exaggerate the size, it is quite small for a 3 bedroom. Needs updates including but not limited to ceiling fans. Not worth what we paid.

This beautiful beach house was perfect for myself and several friends. The location was incredible, with the beach being just about a 5 minute walk away and several restaurants within walking distance as well. The property had everything you could need for a day at the beach or time relaxing inside. The porch had an incredible view and was perfect for relaxing outside. This is the perfect place for a calm beach getaway.

Five stars for cleanliness and being stocked - No stars for busy road

The house was nice, clean and well stocked with linens, towels, cleaning supplies, paper towels and toilet paper. Grill was rusted and bikes were in bad shape - not safe to ride. Even though the house was a short walk to the beach it was on a very busy - loud road. Host was quick to respond.

Cute house! So close to the beach!

We had a great trip! The only thing to consider is if you have anyone staying or visiting that may be physically handicapped (and we did), be prepared to carry them up and down the staircase to get inside. There are no ramps or anything like that. to get inside and out.

We had a great time! The location was perfect and close to the beach as well as a short drive to shopping and food. The large front porch was perfect for the rain as well as under the house where my kids could still play without getting wet. Would recommend and hope to return in the future!
