    Checkin was not good. Given wrong code for lockbox. Washer broke 1st time used it. Floor in house uneven and could feel holes under vinyl floor.

    The host was very responsive. Location has an ocean view but the access is two houses down.

    We loved our week in this house. The beach was across the street, very convenient. Our weather was perfect, and the house was clean, well stocked and comfortable.

    This property suited our needs well. Beach was just a 3 minute walk away, and we went every day! This is not a regular beach access site, so there is no public parking, but there is also no lifeguard or rip current warnings - make sure to check the surf conditions everyday and watch your kids. Pros: -Outside shower and hose to help keep the sand out of the house -Proximity to beach -Well-working appliances (Washer is TOP load, not front load like the listing says) -Plenty of room for a family of 4 -Pet friendly (even though we didn't bring a pet) -Communication with host - quick responses -Linens and towels were good quality -Not a huge list of things to do a checkout Cons: -Wi-fi wasn't working properly - communicated with host, but it was never resolved - not a big deal for us -No shower caddies, or shelves in shower so we had to put our toiletries on the shower floor -Eating table was sticky - consider bringing a table cloth if you want to use it for board/card games I would recommend this property to anyone who wants close access to the water, and doesn't need a super swanky place to stay!

    We haven't been to Topsail in 13 years and this was a fantastic reunion with the island! The beach house had everything we needed and was extremely convenient to get to the beach. We would stay here again!

    its was a nice place & the location was decent. The appliances all worked as well as the water/showers etc. However there were some issues. Whomever is cleaning the location is not doing a good job at all. Your filters are not being changed regularly at all, thee ceiling is black with dust new all of the vents. There was a lot of sand everywhere. I know its the beach but I'm talking about visually being able to see the level of sand under the couch and dinning room table. But at least there is a broom I'm not sure why you have a concrete counter top. There is no was to clean that & its disgusting. You should definitely consider replacing that asap. I suspect that a bleach type of cleaner is being used on the dining room table because it has turned the lacquer sticky and everything sticks to it. There was food wrappers under mattress in the bunkbed room and a lot of sand on the mattress and under the bed. There were only 2 rolls of TP for 4 adults and on child for a week. That is not enough remotely. Another suggestion I have is to put an awning over the door, the door knob gets very hot. it could easily become a hazard. If you are ever able to rebuild the deck to so in the front or even the back on the side it doesn't catch the wind so its just miserable hot on that deck. Also please update your listing there are some things that are not up to date. Like the wi-fi password and there is no grill at least we never could find one. Oh take kids toys down that's a joke.

    We were only there for a couple of days but it was a great trip for us and our kids. Would highly recommend and thinking about returning in the future.
