Island Drive 4248

Organizer
We enjoyed our stay at Topsail immensely. We stayed in this house in 2009. It was well kept for the most part. Some back corners, fixtures and ceiling fans were due for a good cleaning as well as the filter in the jacuzzi. Do not expect to use the sitting room as the 8th bedroom. There are no curtains on the door and the mattress on the sofa bed is in such bad shape it can not be slept on. Otherwise, the house is right on the oceanfront, well appointed and close to good restaurants & activities. There is plenty of space for being alone and for group activities. We love the decks and the elevator was great for the octogenarians in our party. We would stay there again.

Great family vacation
This is a great house for big family/group gatherings. Our favorite thing about the house was the main floor...all 21 of us gathered comfortably for meals and socializing. Some things that weren't clear from the rental description...4 cars can fit in the garage plus two outside in the driveway; there is a 2nd refrigerator on the ground floor; and although the houses are close together we felt we had plenty of privacy.

A wonderful, beautiful trip.
The house was great. Had trouble with the hot tub, but other wise it was fantastic.

What a wonderful week!!!
We rented the house to get married on the beach with a few friends and family. It was a wonderful, everything we dreamed of and more. The house was perfect it had everything we needed. It was a lot of fun with everyone in the same house. And the area was great there were shops and Wilmington was close by but you really didn't have to go anywhere because there was the beach and hot tub and friends you don't need anything else.
We plan on returning, it was one of our best vacations.
The only thing I would suggest it to get the linens with the house but bring extra towels with you.

Sixteen people, ages 6 to 75, had a wonderful time.
What was there not to like? The location was perfect, ocean front. The home was well appointed and comfortable. It did not hurt that the weather was perfect.

Our favorite vacation spot
This is our 5th year at North Topsail Beach. The house is beautiful, a dream home. Clean, the kitchen is very well stocked all we need are groceries.I highly recommend using the linen service. Our family loves this secret get-a-way spot. We will keep coming back!
Relaxing, tranquil, time to recharge our batteries! You will not regret choosing this vacation spot! Grab some beach towels and a few Dvd's

We loved this house so much we stayed twice
Our first stay at this house was in October/November 2020 and then we stayed again March/April 2021. We loved it. It is listed as an 8 bedroom but it really is a 7 bedroom with a bonus sitting room off of the living room. During the pandemic, we traveled only with our immediate family so we only had 10 people. There was so much room for all of us at this beautiful home. It is right on the beach with amazing ocean views. We watched the sunrise and saw dolphins right from our deck almost every day. The kitchen is well stocked with the exception of a large stock pot. We always rent linens and they are waiting when we arrive. The hot tub jets do not stay on unless you hit "clean" every time they stop. We could fit double SUVs on each side of the garages. The location is perfect with it being close to Sneads Ferry and a short drive to Surf City. Grocery stores, restaurants, gift shops, etc. are all close by.

Best Topsail Stay in Years
We lucked out to find this house available in May of 2021! We were 8 adults and three small children, and we just spread out like melted butter inside. The living space is huge and even has a side sitting room off of it with French doors - and the kids occupied this space in the evenings. Spacious decks with high adirondack-type chairs to see over the railings. We really appreciated the vinyl railings as well (with the kids), usually having to closely inspect wooden railings always coming apart at other homes. The bedrooms were large and comfortable, huge baths, and with 3 stories above the garage we greatly appreciated the elevator. The beach varies a lot year-to-year, but this year it was wide and flatter than most times. Had a blast with beach games. It was hard to believe that with vacation homes opening back up and people getting out we had no more than one or two families for a quarter of a mile either direction on the beach. All in all, we enjoyed this house immensely and will be back.
