Topsail Beach, North Carolina
Located in the gated Queens Grant community, The Canal House is an immaculately clean and stylishly furnished 3 bed/3 bath townhome ready to host you and your family. Sandwiched between the Ocean and the Sound directly on a canal, you truly get the best of everything!
A twin bedroom and full bathroom with walk-in shower, along with a spacious living area, kitchen, deck, and sound access are the highlights of the first floor. As the end unit, the living area is full of great light and an unimpeded view directly out to Topsail Sound!
Up the stairs, you'll find the owner's suite with it's own deck and the same great view of Topsail Sound, as well as an en suite bathroom with walk-in dual head shower boasting a river rock floor. The 3rd bedroom includes a queen bed and en suite bathroom with a bathtub/shower combo.
Outdoors, you can enjoy the sun and views from the deck in the Owner's Suite, or sit, eat and relax in the shade of the deck on the first floor. A patio under the first floor deck includes more shaded seating, a porch swing, a grill and a drop-down table for outdoor eating...we recommend laying down some newspaper and dumping out a large low country boil or steam pot to enjoy with friends and family.
Steps from the deck/patio you'll have deep water sound access from the canal. The "day" docks are perfect for mooring your boat during your stay, while the floating dock offers a perfect spot to put in a kayak, canoe, or paddle board. If you bring a boat, Queens Grant has its own private boat ramp and trailer parking/storage that you are welcome to use during your stay. You can be out of your bed, on the boat tied in the canal, and on your way to your favorite fishing spot in a matter of minutes each morning.
A newly renovated pool and clubhouse just a few steps out the door provide a place to hangout for those less interested in the salt water adventures. Plenty of chairs and tables for enjoying a day by the pool, and a playground and basketball court are nearby for fun and games as well.
All of that, and the main attraction, the beach, is still just a few steps away. Load up our beach cart and head just past the pool to the Queens Grant beachfront property where you'll enjoy private access to the beach. Spend all day lounging in the sand and then come back home to the soundside for dinner and sunset views over the water. It's the best of both worlds!
We stayed with two of my adult children and their dog and the house was the perfect size for our family. The view of the canal, sound, and beautiful houses greeted us every morning and was so relaxing to look at. The ocean was only a short walk across the street and we enjoyed shell and shark tooth hunting every day. The drive to Serenity point was very short and we went to the south end several times. We would definitely book this property again! My only request (and its a small one) would be a gate for the deck for the dog, or small children. We made a make shift one so he could enjoy being out with us unleashed when we sat at the table. Overall perfect vacation!
Start to finish great place. Thanks for all. First time on bay side and we enjoyed the peace and quiet and yet were close to the beach! Will return
We had a wonderful time.
We loved this property so much! We have already booked again!
Elizabeth communicated with us incredibly well and everything was better than we expected. It was the perfect amount of space for our family (four adults, two children). We loved being on the canal and having very close beach access. We made good use of the kayaks and beach chairs Elizabeth offered as well! We will be back again!!
Great place in a great location. Home was clean, had all the essentials. Location was perfect to see sunrise and sunset. Beach just across the street. We will be back!
Great house! This lovely home has it all. Gracious, attentive hostess, Very clean, exceedingly well stocked home. Everyone from parents, kids and furry friends will find something to love. Owners have great beach and canal toys, paddleboards, boogie boards, kayaks that we all enjoyed. Also worth mentioning the bathrooms were all clean and fresh. Kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals. Loved it so much we plan on returning next year for longer.
We booked a last minute stay and we’re so fortunate to find the Canal House ! It was a perfect fit for me, my wife, our 3 teens and our dog. Everything was as described or better. Even the neighbors were great! The paddle boards were fun for us all. Elisabeth is an excellent communicator and was very prompt to get all of my questions answered. The space is well thought out and labels throughout were a nice touch. Oh and don’t miss a sunset during your vacation!
I’ve really been to a rental home that has been so well equipped in the kitchen. Our family came for Thanksgiving weekend and we had everything we needed in the house. Very well stocked very clean and a wonderful location for the entire family! Elisabeth was easy to communicate with, and everything went smoothly for check in and check out highly recommend this day at Topsail Beach!
Our family had a blast at this property! The sunsets were amazing and the stargazing from the upper porch was magical. The proximity to the ocean was great and the pool was nice and clear. We hope to come back and actually stay a whole week!
We loved the rental property. Great experience!
We really enjoyed our stay at The Canal House. Elizabeth was absolutely wonderful at responding to all my questions. The house was very clean and the kitchen was fully stocked with just about everything you need. She even had a tea kettle which was awesome because I usually always have to bring my own. We had a great time having our meals out on the deck overlooking the canal and the sound. We took the kayaks out one time and saw dolphins only a few feet away from us! It was so amazing!! I loved being able to jump in the pool only a few steps away if I didn't feel like going to the beach. The reason I am rating this 4 star instead of 5 is because I had to fight with the blinds in the master bedroom every night. I am used to a dark room and since the blinds were broken it was hard to situate them where the street light from across the canal was not shining in my eyes all night. Needless to say I did not get much sleep the whole week. The mattress is not very comfortable as well. Other than that we enjoyed our stay very much!
We had an amazing week at The Canal House! Great location with all amenities we needed for a relaxing week! Definitely recommend staying here - easy booking - easy check in - great communication with host!
Lovely 3 BR, 3 bath home with dock for your boat. Located across from beautiful Topsail Beach. Enjoy boating on the Intercostal waterway and or the beach on the Ocean side. Dog friendly.
Very welcoming place. Could use dresser in bedrooms.
This was out 9th year on Topsail Island and it was also our 25th anniversary so we stayed for 2 weeks at The Canal House. The house was clean and it was the perfect location for our group. We had access to the canal with our boat out back, the pool, and the beach-- nice options to accommodate everyone. The hosts were very timely in response to questions. We enjoyed our stay.
Had a great time in this clean townhouse - with every amenity necessary and even nice-to-haves like essential oils and a diffuser. Grateful to our hosts.
The house was clean and well stocked. The location was perfect to catch the sunset over the sound at night and still have ocean views in the morning. We had the joy of dolphins in the sound several times during our stay and even saw them while kayaking to the beach across the sound. The hermit crabs at the sound side beach were a fun surprise! The dog friendly neighborhood and well placed waste bags and receptacles were a great convenience! Everyone in the neighborhood was so friendly and all of the dogs were well behaved! We had a couple of questions early on our stay and the owners were responsive and helpful. I would definitely recommend this property for anyone wanting to experience the beach with their dogs and enjoy the quieter recreation available on the sound but yet close enough to get to the ocean in a 2 minute walk. A+ for sure
Short walk to the beach and access to the intercoastal from the backyard. Wife and kids liked using the community pool in the late afternoon.
Property beautiful on the canal and beach just across the street. Very easy to get to. Restaurants close by as well.
Great. VRBO and Twig personnel were wondering! B
