From Sound to Sea, the whole island is 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.
"What a beautiful and peaceful place to stay. I wish we had found this gem years ago!"
Charles, recent guest

What a great house! There was plenty of space for our big family to hang out in the common area to relax, watch the World Cup, play games, and cook and eat. The tree lined street was charming and the private beach access was steps away. It was the perfect spot for our group, ages 11-84 and we hope to go back again soon!

Our stay was everything we hoped for. It was great having a cozy place to unwind in-between activities and at the end of the day.

What a beautiful and peaceful place to stay! We could relax on the porch listening to the waves and watching the birds in the trees. The short walk to the beach access was shaded and made carrying our beach supplies easier. I wish we had found this gem years ago!

We had seven adults, two young children, and even hosted a couple of friends for an afternoon, yet the home never felt crowded. The deck quickly became our favorite gathering spot, where we spent hours relaxing, sharing meals, and making memories. Our grandchildren loved it, and even our dog, Cookie, seemed completely at peace here. We would gladly stay here again.

The location was perfect, just a short walk to the beach or the sound where we enjoyed watching the boats. The outdoor space was peaceful and nicely shaded. The neighborhood was quiet. We spent most time outside on the porch or on the patio, and we also enjoyed a nice fire around the firepit.

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!
