Fantastic beach house

Our extended family enjoyed our stay for a long weekend at this beach house. It was outfitted perfectly for our group and was convenient to the beach and a short walk to the sound. It was also nicely located close to restaurants in Surf City and Topsail Beach. Highly recommend.
