What a Great Place!
What an amazing place to stay! It was the perfect size for the whole family. The top deck was a wonderful place to sit and have our tea and coffee in the mornings while trying to spot dolphins. The location was a convenient 10 minute drive to grocery and souvenir stores. It was clean and well kept. I would have liked more storage in the kitchen to place all our food for the week, but we made it work! Being able to take our dog with us was an added bonus. If this is your first time going to Topsail you MUST go to the Topsail Trading Company and get some homemade fudgeā€¦.it is amazing and they have so many flavors to try! Thank you for a wonderful stay and we will see you next year!

Not quite as expected
Start off with the good - the beach is in the backyard, and thatā€™s about it. Be prepared to make your own beds on check in, we asked where are all the sheets? Owner comment, ā€œoh due to the pandemic, we arenā€™t making any beds, linens are in a bag by the doorā€. Okā€¦ been to 20 + vacation rentals in the post-pandemic era, and this is a first. Should get a discount on the cleaning fee if Iā€™m also a housekeeper. This is a duplex, with neighbors only a small 2 way door apart, as in adjoining hotel rooms. Our neighbors were partying hard with a large group late into the night. We told the owner, who said they would say something, but nothing changed, doubt they reached out to the other renter. Few other little issues, always an excuse from the owner. Never took responsibility for anything. Very heavy storm one day while we were there, woke up in the morning to discover the roof leaked all night right into my wifeā€™s suitcase. Full of water. That was our last straw and we left a day early. Notified the owner of the leak, and another excuse, no apology. We were offered a credit to come back, not that we would anyways. Never received the credit, tried to follow up with the owner but never a reply. Filed a complaint with VRBO. Do yourself a favor and find anything else to rent while visiting the area.

We have been coming to Topsail for over 30 years so needless to say, itā€™s a special place to usā€¦like a second home! Up on the Roof was a wonderful place to stay and we wouldnā€™t hesitate to stay again. Clean and everything was as described. It was no problem but we could hear the other guests thru the shared door but it wasnā€™t an issue. Check in was easy and linens arrived. No hesitation in recommending this home.

Favorite stay so far
This house was GREAT! It was so clean and the furniture was nice and clean too. We werenā€™t afraid to sit on the furniture, as with some houses in the past! The walk to the beach was short and easy. Close enough to make multiple trips back to the house for supplies, potty breaks, extra drinks, beach gear, etc. The location is great! The beach wasnā€™t crowded, even at the public beach/parking area a quarter mile down! Itā€™s a short and easy drive to Surf City where all the shops and restaurants are. The decks were by far our favorite part of the house, though! We LOVE sitting and watching the waves crash or looking for dolphins and this house has the PERFECT decks for that! Amy was super responsive and accommodating to our needs. We will definitely be back!

Horrible Experience
Our experience with this property and the hosts was difficult to say the least. First night, we found a live giant cockroach the size of a key fob in the first floor bed under the sheets. That person slept on the couch that evening and no one slept on that bed our entire stay even after the owners sent out a bug sprayer. The fridge leaks water leaving a large puddle in front every morning to clean up so kids donā€™t slip and fall. The pictures of the property are old and deceiving. The pictures show all beds are made with sheets already on and towels next to the beds. In reality, all bed sheets and towels are in a bag on the bottom floor so all beds have to be made yourself. The pictures also show three rocking chairs outside. Instead there was only one functional rocking chair and another one was missing the seat. No third one. One night and the following day we had heavy rain. We found out the roof leaks badly. Water leaked in two bedrooms, a hallway, down the wall of the stairs, and from the kitchen ceiling onto the kitchen island. We had pots catching water and spent the day mopping up water which continued leaking all day to prevent anyone from slipping and just trying to prevent unnecessary damage to the house. At closer inspection, the house leaked several times before. Thereā€™s water stains on the kitchen ceiling and baseboard trim in some bedrooms. We contacted the owners about the leak. They sent a roofer out and couldnā€™t find the source of the leaks. The owner Greg came out and was very rude. His entire focus was on the property instead of our experience. No thank you for helping with the water leaks and only a quick apology for the inconvenience as he was going up the stairs to look at the leaks. He vacuumed up some water, plugged in a fan, and a moldy smelling dehumidifier in the bedroom. We asked for a partial refund from the owners first in writing, then again verbally, then again in writing and each time theyā€™ve deflected from giving us a definitive answer. We never would have stayed in this property if we knew what we were getting into. Itā€™s been over 3 days and still the owners refuse to advise whether they are willing to give a partial refund or not. Choose a different host.

Love this townhouse. The view of the ocean from the master bedroom was my favorite. Itā€™s just 15 steps to the beach. During high tide the water comes almost to the steps leading up to the house. Plenty of space outside to hang out and have great chats with friends and family. Iā€™d bring extra laundry detergent and some cascade tabs as well as ice. Lots of dishes and containers to store leftovers in! Itā€™s a great house!

Very clean, great location on the island
Home was very clean. We enjoyed having the roof over our heads on the decks. We enjoy this area of the island as it's only 10 minutes down to Surf City one way and 10 minutes over to Sneads Ferry the other way. The home was as described in the listing. Very clean, updated and nice. We had no complaints and would be happy to stay there again in the future. There is an RV park across the street, but it was very quiet and the RV beach access is far down and not near the house.
