The view is beautiful. There is nothing in your back view of the ocean, the back deck withall the chairs is so cozy too. My fur babies had a great time. This property is layed out beautifully. It clean and has everything you need except your clothes. I will definitely be requesting this house for my next stay at Top sail beach.

Tubs are too slippery, I fell out of the tub/shower and cracked a rib on our 1st day. If that had been my 83 year old father we would have been at the ER. We went out and bought tub mats. The beds are terribly uncomfortable. The deck cld use a table. The hose on the porch busted. However, its a wonderful lication, has tons of room and was very clean. Thanks!

Would not stay again.

The place was dirty. Had problems with ants causing us to have to keep buying more food. Found a dead roach in the bathroom. There was mold all over the place on the inside of the home and in the vents. You could smell the mold when we turned the AC on downstairs because it was tray hit in the basement one day. We had problems with circut breakers tripping in the kitchen when we were trying to cook Thanksguving dinner making it late. Just overall the worst vacation experience that I have ever had and will not ever go back or recommend. We did get some money back but not what I thought was sufficient for all the issues we had and the money we spent.

Location. Location. Location.

Incredible location. The home is older so bathrooms are small and the water heater can only handle one shower at a time. The kitchen is stocked well. The views are amazing. The house could use some TLC but it was a great vacation as we spend our days on the beach.

Nice place at the beach

This was a nice place to stay. It was nice that it was two floors instead of three, reducing the number of stairs to be climbed to the living area. Beach access was difficult because of sand up over the walkway, but we managed. Kitchen was very well appointed.
