From the sound to the sea, the whole island's yours.

Topsail Island keeps things quiet and family-friendly — a calm sound on one side, open ocean on the other, and both shores a short walk from your door. Surf City is the easy, unhurried kind of beach town you come back to.

We loved this place! It's an easy walk to the sound or the ocean. The beds are very comfortable and the bedrooms are roomy. The kitchen is well-equipped and spotless. We enjoyed the firepit and the outdoor eating spaces. For our large family group, it was perfect and we will definitely rent it again!

Our stay was so peaceful and comfortable. We loved the deck and drinking morning coffee. Everything you could want and more was available and we felt so comfortable. The beds are cozy and there are spacious closets and dressers to put clothes and belongings away. We will definitely be back!
