Sound front cottage with no steps

The view from the living room picture window is a gorgeous view of the sound; there is a bench you can sit and watch the seabirds right outside the house. It is a short walk of only .16 mile to walk to the ocean down Darden, and this includes walking to the top of the ramp over the sand dune. We found the streets in the area to be friendly for walking with relatively smooth roads encouraging us to walk at least twice a day. The screened porch has a wooden table and chairs with cushions perfect for us to play cards. The kitchen was indeed well stocked. I only brought a slotted spoon and my fav 9x12 cutting board with me. We loved that there are no steps: you do have to step into the house over the threshold as with any house. The walk in shower stalls are a good size inside the house plus an outside shower to get your sand off. I wish I could rate this beach house higher than 5 stars.

We had a relaxing weekend cooking seafood and hanging out by the water. It was great

This was our 3rd time staying here! We love that it has access to the sound and that the beach is a quick walk across the street. One level is a game changer for any one with mobility issues or even if you just want to make your life easy with packing and unpacking. The cottage itself is well stocked and the view is amazing.

This was a perfect spot for some needed R&R. I was able to fish and read a book and just chill out while overlooking the Topsail sound. The owner’s communication was superb and the check-in and check-out instructions were super easy. All possible resources that you may need were available and I highly recommend this home to anyone looking for a nice place to stay with breathtaking sunsets.

This house is in an amazing location. Easy access to the sound, VERY quick walk to the beach. The place is clean, super cute, and has well equipped kitchen. The screened in space is wonderful and the hosts were immediately responsive when we had a power outage. We will definitely be back!!

We were meeting family for the first time. Unfortunately our flight was delayed and we arrived in the dark around midnight. In entering the property it smelt very musty and not fresh. We found our beds had not been made. There were no duvet covers only sheets and pillowcases. The next morning we were surprised with how dirty it was and it was so dark. A lot of dust in the twin bedroom, shower door trims were black, toilet seat broken on one hinge, outside of the property was filthy - dirt, cobwebs, just awful. It wasn’t a pleasant property. Very gloomy, dingy and dirty.

We had a great 3-night stay at the property which provided great sunset views and a public sound access for paddle boarding. The beds were comfortable and the screen porch was awesome during the rainstorm!

This was perfect for our family of 4+ 2 dogs. The only minor downside was not having a sound “beach” because of the bulkhead, but with public access steps right next to the yard, it wasn’t a big deal. Ideally situated between end of island and center of town and the ocean with handicapped access.

Having everything on one level was so great as one member of our group has Parkinson’s and limited mobility. It was peaceful, lots of room and private. We will definitely return!

We love this house so much. 2nd year staying here. Kids can fish in the back yard and close walk to the beach. No steps to worry with and beds are comfortable.
