Our stay at this beach house was nothing short of amazing! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the stunning views, the fresh ocean breeze, and the overall cleanliness and charm of the home. It was beautifully decorated, super comfortable, and had everything we needed — from beach towels to a fully stocked kitchen. The location was ideal — just steps from the sand. We spent our days swimming, sunbathing, playing games and eating home cooked meals with the best view! The kids had a blast, and the adults enjoyed the peaceful, relaxing vibe. John was also incredibly responsive and made sure we had everything we needed. We felt truly welcomed. This beach house made our trip unforgettable. Highly recommend to anyone looking for the perfect family beach escape!

We had a great experience at John's AirBnB. The home looked just like the photos, was well stocked with the amenities listed and is at a great, private location away from public beach access. We had a random issue with the internet and John was extremely responsive and proactive to help us troubleshoot it. We'd definitely stay here again!

We loved this house. Three families went and we enjoyed every bedroom had its own bathroom and the independent half bath. The layout is great for a beach house. The owner's clearly have thought through what makes a house comfortable for vacationing. The extra hooks in the bathroom, the luggage racks in the bedrooms, extra linens in the closets, plenty of beach towels and bath towels, well stocked kitchen, amazing captain's chairs on the deck to enjoy the amazing view, good quality beach chairs, and and a well maintained hot tub. I am sure I am leaving out other things! We appreciated having a local contact (who was super friendly but we only contacted her when we couldn't find something, it was our oversight). This section of Topsail is our favorite, not far from amenities but a little less hustle and bustle. This beach house surpassed our prior experiences in other houses. I highly recommend a stay here!

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this beach house! We appreciated the uncrowded and private beachfront. We will miss early morning sunrises, beach strolls, and relaxing on the beautiful deck enjoying the ocean views. Leaving with many happy family memories. Thanks John!

We've been coming to the Island for 20 plus years and rarely is a house so clean, so perfectly located, and so well managed. John and his management team were amazingly truthful, resourceful, and responsive. The house was so great, we didn't have to interact at all during our stay. the instructions through the app and throughout the house made everything as easy as can be. Oh! and the beds were very comfortable. We will be back!

Our stay at John's beach house was excellent. The steps straight to the beautiful beach were great, the porches/decks with the wonderful tall chairs, the layout and usability of the house were perfect. We had a couple of minor problems while staying there (one ceiling fan didn't work and a beach umbrella was broken) but the host was extremely responsive and had the issues fixed in only a day or so. I couldn't ask for more from a host. I would certainly stay in this house again.

Our stay was amazing - can't beat the easy beach front access! The accommodations were clean and as advertised. John and the house manager were both easily accessible for any questions/concerns during our stay. 5 start review well deserved! It was a very special stay and we will definitely return.

5/5 beach rental! My family and I had the best vacation at this house! We were so grateful that it was so child friendly upon arrival. There were gates at the top of all the steps, which was incredible with a two year old. Without those, we wouldn’t have been able to relax like we did. The kitchen was well equipped, there was even a high-chair for the little one. The bedrooms and bathrooms were all extremely clean. The hot tub was maintained each day we were there, which was fantastic. This house has everything you could want for a beach rental! We would come back in a heart beat. I would give this place 6 stars if I could!

Most accommodating rental we have stayed in! Kitchen had every tool we needed and then some. Beds were extremely comfortable!! We did not have children with us, but all of the necessities for young children were there (baby gates, high chair, etc.). The house was extremely clean and the location was perfect for our group. Hopeful to book again in the future!
