Welcome to Swallows Nest!

Get ready for the best of both worlds—beautiful Ocean views in one direction and peaceful sound views in the other! With direct beach access just across the street, multiple decks, a private hot tub, and water views throughout the home, this coastal retreat makes it easy to settle into island time!

After a day spent with your toes in the sand, come home and slip into theprivate hot tub for a relaxing evening soak. Or grab your favorite drink and head to one of the decks, where ocean breezes and gorgeous water views set the scene for slow mornings, sunny afternoons, and laid-back evenings!

The first floor features four comfortable bedrooms, with three offering direct access to the deck. One bedroom also includes a private bath area with a garden tub—perfect for a little extra relaxation after a day at the beach. Exterior stairs connect the first-floor deck directly to the upper level, making it easy to move between the home's outdoor spaces.

Head upstairs and the views really begin to shine! The open-concept living and dining area is surrounded by views of both the Atlantic and the sound, creating a bright, welcoming space where everyone can gather. Cozy up around the rock fireplace, spread out for game night, or simply kick back and enjoy the coastal scenery from nearly every angle.

Gather around the dining table with the sound as your backdrop, then step through the French doors onto the second-floor deck. Follow the deck around to the ocean side and take in the Atlantic—an amazing spot for morning coffee, an afternoon breeze, or an evening spent listening to the waves!

The spacious kitchen keeps everyone connected to the action with plenty of room to prepare meals, gather around the island, and enjoy those incredible water views while you cook.

An additional bedroom upstairs offers a private bath and direct deck access, while the upper-level loft provides even more space to spread out, unwind, and take in views of both the ocean and sound.

Perfectly positioned between North Topsail Beach and Surf City, you'll have easy access to local restaurants, shopping, activities, and everything you need for a Topsail Island getaway—all while coming home to your own peaceful spot by the water.

Beach days, hot tub nights, ocean sunrises, sound views, and salty breezes—this is the kind of Topsail vacation you'll want to come back to year after year!

    Great home and location! Beach access just across the street! Cleanliness was okay. I feel like the house needs a deep cleaning; especially in the bathrooms and corners of the house. Loved the fact that the house was not too close to other houses and had a lot of parking spaces! Kitchen was supplied with majority of necessities. Handle on cold water for outdoor shower broken so only had hot water and water hose sprayed water everywhere. Overall, great choice! Would love to stay here again!

    Not clean, especially the kitchen floor, all the other floors and under the beds. There is no broom or mop to clean it ourselves. The double bed in the back bedroom is terrible. We had to take the mattress from the sleeper sofa to put on the bedroom mattress to make it tolerable. (Though we didn’t use it, the sleeper sofa also looked unusable.) Though not expected, the dispensers in the shower were empty.The kitchen was pretty well stocked, but didn’t have any large/ serving spoons. Loved the decks, the chairs and picnic table on the deck, the views of the ocean and the sound, and the Ninja coffee maker.

    Great views of the ocean and the sound. The house was dirty and the bedding poor.

    We recently stayed at this beach house and can confidently say the best part of it is the location—it’s just a very short and easy walk to the beach, which made our days incredibly convenient and enjoyable. The porch decks were also a highlight, offering lovely views of the ocean and a great place to relax. That said, the house could use some general maintenance and attention. When we arrived, the floors didn’t feel clean, the kitchen table was sticky, and we were surprised to find a bug under one of the bed pillows. The furniture is quite worn—especially the couch, which is so saggy that shorter guests had to crane their necks to see the TV comfortably. The beds could use a refresh as well. The kitchen has the basics, but a set of sharper knives would go a long way. We also noticed that the landscaping around the house needs some upkeep—especially the weeds growing around the back stairs. Overall, we loved being so close to the beach and appreciated the great views, but with a little extra care and updating, this home could be a truly fantastic rental.

    What a wonderful home and perfectly located within steps to the beach. Our stay was filled with lots of laughter, sun, sand, and memories made. We loved the big kitchen table that we were able to play games on and all sit to eat at. The decks showcased amazing views of the entire island. We would love to stay here again! Hopefully next year ❤️

    We spent a week here with a group of 15, and really enjoyed the quiet beach location at this access. The house was very nice and had enough space to accommodate us all. It would be nice to have more linens provided - for example we could only find one dish towel and had to use bath towels for all of our cooking/cleaning of the kitchen. We also did laundry daily to have enough bath towels for everyone. It was pretty clean but still had some dog hair on a comforter and some sand on the floors, the oven hadn’t been cleaned out. Our family was pleasantly surprised to find a gas grill downstairs that we used a few times! The hot tub was well serviced. We enjoyed the large lot size so the kids could play baseball out in the driveway area. Overall a nice place to stay just bring more dish towels and possibly bath towels depending on how many people you have!

    We enjoyed our time and the wonderful views at this home. Easy access to beach. Nice to eat breakfast on 3rd floor in the morning and look at the ocean. Wish we could have stayed longer!

    This was a typical stay. The hot tub was nice. The views were beautiful. Perfect distance from the beach. There was nothing that was super spectacular about the place, but it was overall a good place. It could use updates on paint, a working microwave, and the cleaning crew could pay better attention to detail. A BBQ grill would have been a nice option.

    The property was close to the beach with a terrific view of the ocean and intercoastal waterway. There was plenty of space for everyone and the deck had gates at either end allowing us to feel safe that the dogs and children were able to move from inside the house to outside without worry.

    The dual views of the sound and ocean are delightful. We enjoyed the deck and hot tub. Kitchen is equipped and we appreciated the cleanliness of kitchen and bathrooms. Parking is easy. Bedrooms mostly are large. Foam toppers on the mattresses. The LR furniture needs a refresh and the living room isn’t large enough for the # of bedrooms in the house, considering it is the only inside gathering space. We had 9 adults and 2 children. May be less of an issue in the summer but something to consider if you have a big group.

    Our family enjoyed our time at this house. For our needs perfectly. Just had to walk across the street to the beach and easy to go back to the house for the rest room and a quick bite for lunch.
