One of the highlights of this beach house is its private boat ramp, allowing you to conveniently launch your boat and explore the stunning waterways of Surf City, Topsail Beach, Lea Island, Masonboro Island, Wrightsville Beach and so much more! With room for a boat up to 28 ft, you can easily bring your own vessel and embark on exciting boating adventures during your stay.

Your pets are welcome and we have even added a fenced yard with movable pieces so you can keep your kids and furry friends safe.

We truly enjoyed our stay at the coastal cottage. The layout of the property highlighted by a fantastic back patio area right on the canal was truly perfect for our needs. Being right on the canal and such a short walk to the beach.Gives you the best of both worldsquirrels to enjoy both sides of the island. We look forward to visiting this property again and many thanks to our hosts.

This cottage was perfect! My sister and I, our husbands, my niece and nephews, were there to celebrate my sisters 56th birthday. Although everyone came at different days, because of work schedules, so we didn’t have a full house at all times. But if we did, the rooms were perfect! They all had bathrooms, TVs, super comfortable bedding and ceiling fans. Kitchen was equipped with everything you need! Outside was a nice grill, propane, nice chairs, tables and a ton of beach toys, floats and chairs! Beach towels also! This is our third summer staying at topsail, and this was a great place for family!

Even though we are fairly local to the area several generations of my family like to rent a place at the beach every summer to relax, unwind and spend quality time together. It is sometimes hard to find a place that meets all of our needs, but this canal front cottage managed to check all of our boxes!! The main living space (plus one bed and bath) only requires one step into the house which was perfect for my mother who can't do a lot of steps. The whole back patio area and part of the side yard were fenced in which was perfect for our two dogs. We were able to bring the boat and dock it right out back. The house was plenty spacious and clean and so nice to have towels and linens included. We would definitely rent again!!

The home was beautiful and loved the back area with plenty of shade. Loved that the home was provided with linens, towels and water boards for kids to enjoy. Overall we loved the place. Only downside it was warmer upstairs mid day. Definitely would recommend and would stay again.
