Nice house, clean...nothing fancy. Only one TV, other guests couldn't retire to their room and watch tv, but still okay. It had everything we needed and was well organized. The best thing about this place was the walk to the beach was close by. No steps...all ramp at # 14 access. Perfect.

The house had a cool beach vibe plenty of room for the family kitchen was well equipped for meal prep . Met the cleaning person when we arrived she was just finishing up as we arrived but ran out for a battery for a smoke alarm she was very friendly and did a great job cleaning. There are small details that may bother some but nothing that affects your stay

Much better

This was our second time staying at the property and it was much better than the first. Improvements were made to the property. Only complaint is the deck because it slopes and was poorly built. The stairs are very dangerous.

Chris, thank you for being a returning guest! We're so pleased that you enjoyed your stay and that it was even better than your last visit. Your feedback about the deck is valuable, and we passed your comments on to the local manager. They assured us that the exterior decks were replaced by the homeowner last year and that there are no structural concerns. Decks generally slope slightly to facilitate proper drainage and prevent water from pooling, which could potentially damage the deck or foundation. We regret any inconvenience. We enjoyed having you as our guest and hope to host you again.

Loved how close it was to the beach! Just a short walk to the public access to the beach. The water pressure was a lacking in both showers. Was lovely to sit out on the deck and have coffee in the morning and dinner and wine in the evening. Parking was very nice. There were a lot of flies everywhere st on point we made a game of how many we killed. Other than that we had a great time and even talked about booking it again next year!! Thank you!

We loved our stay at Whaley

The location was great, the house was clean and most importantly (for us) our pup was allowed! We could see where parts of the house are not “updated” enough for some people, but we don’t mind that at all. It was a comfortable stay. The only two things we would recommend is adding a fenced in area and adding a gate to the deck for dogs. Those are two bonuses for families like us that take their pup everywhere, but we still had a great time! We will also give a heads up that the charcoal grill pictured was not there and the gas grill was not in the best shape. We grill a lot, so we just ended up getting a small propane grill. No big deal. We would stay at Whaley again!

Thank you for providing your valuable feedback. We are sorry for any issues you encountered during your stay. Local staff is always available to assist if there are amenities in the home that fall short. We hope to have a chance to host you next time. Thank you.

The house was great. WiFi was good not issues with multiple connections. Porches brand new. Then only thing lacking was that the furniture is dated a bit but it’s a beach house. The location is awesome if you want a quiet spot close to the beach.

Topsail Paradise

We loved the location of this home. You could see the ocean and the backwaters from this home. The place was spacious. We were happy that the home was pet friendly. We enjoyed our stay.

Great location for a quiet family vacation. If you want to sit on the deck without a lot of traffic. The house could use some updating and paint, but are you going for the house or the beach? Public access was across the street and a short walk. No need to drive! Enjoyed our time.

Perfect location for a quiet family beach getaway with your fur baby! Quaint but clean and good outside deck spaces. Slightly dated furniture but the beds were comfortable and we were there for the beach so didn't bother us at all.

House was in a great location. Just a 4 minute walk to the beach. The house was stocked with dishes and pots and pans which was very helpful. Our only issue was the internet was out for the first couple of days and only one hard to use TV in the living room

We have stayed here three times and like the roomy living area with space for family games and jigsaw puzzles. I ran view is lovely and it is close to beach access #14. Very clean, with typical kitchen stuff ( only one wineglass, though!) and bath, kitchen and laundry soap provided, as well as some paper supplies. We may well be back for a fourth stay!

It's like being in the fifths

We stayed a top sail many times the house that we always rent is up for sale. The last time we were here they started building the new bridge wow look at it now. Had a good time lost a few friends and a dog but our friend showed up with a new dog. Still had a good time
