About this property
The Very Best Sunsets! No cleaning fee. 10% off 7 day bookings! Extras Included.
331 Oceanaire Ln. - All the extras included
No cleaning fees for 4+ night rentals. Linens, Towels, Laundry and paper products are included. You won’t need to start your trip at the grocery store buying the basics. No need to rent bikes either. We got 'em. Low country boil night? No sweat. The steamer and table are ready to go. Grilling? Gas grill on hand. Don't need a whole week? No problem. The longer you stay the better the discount but you can book as little as 4 nights in the high season and as little as 3 nights in the off season with a $200 cleaning fee. How's that for easy? Don't let the average price per night fool you when comparing. It doesn't tell the whole story.
We want one thing for your family and friends...Have a worry free vacation. Which is why insurance is mandatory. If something goes wrong, we can't have it to spoiling your vacation. Let it go and move on! We strive to provide an 'experience' not just a beach house rental.
Simple!
The Surf City/Topsail area is well known for being a quiet family oriented vacation spot. The beaches are clean and rarely crowded. The ability to enjoy the sound and the ocean lend itself to an amazing experience that you won't find anywhere else.
We picked this house because of the view and it's proximity to the beach access while staying far enough off the main road that it is quiet and peaceful. The beach access is at the end of the street. It is set up to sleep 10. Two Master Bedrooms with King Beds, a Guest room with a Queen Bed and a kids room with a bunk bed and two extra twin mattress' if needed.
We tried to think of everything that you might use at home and would want on vacation. This reverse floor plan home is new to the rental market and professionally decorated. Parking is plentiful with a 4 car driveway. Bring the less mobile family members, this home has an elevator to make it easy for them to enjoy their vacation too.
We hope you will love the area as much as we do and hope you will enjoy our home. Feel free to reach out to us with questions.

Gorgeous sunset views from the deck as well as just a short walk to the beach with easy public access. Well stocked kitchen as well as extra clean bedrooms and bathrooms with all amenities provided helped to make for a relaxing and memorable family vacation.
We loved our stay at this property! Communication was beyond fantastic and the hosts have thought of everything to make your stay wonderful! The hot tub was an added bonus and we really enjoyed it (since it rained 3 out of 7 days we were there!) We definitely recommend the property!

Lovely home with excellent amenities!
This lovely home is located by a gorgeous view of the waterway and convenient to beach access. It has EVERYTHING you could possibly need for a wonderful vacation!
Great accommodations with EVERYTHING provide and well thought out w views to die for especially the evening sunsets the hots/owners are the very best GO now!
Hard to repeat a great first experience, but Marccus and Meg have been able to do just that for our return this year. This is our most favorite vacation place on Topsail Island. Great location, and because there is no public parking at the beach access, there was plenty of space to spread out on the beach.
For those who love fireworks on the 4th, we had a great view from the deck overlooking the Intercoastal waterway.
Their home is comfy (the beds especially) and it is so nice that everything needed for a great vacation is provided. Do yourself a favor, and book this home for your next awesome vacation!
This was the third year for the four of us staying at Shore Thing for our Topsail retreat. We come back because the house offers everything we need including an incredible view.
What a beautiful home at the beach!!! My family has loved our three visits to Surf City and Shore Thing!!! The hosts are great as well!!!! Thanks for sharing your home with us!!!!
Really nice house in a fantastic location. Has everything you need including bikes, chairs, and 4.5 bathrooms! Elevator makes load in/out easy in a 3 story house.
There aren’t enough adjectives to properly describe the view from the back of this house. The owners have thought of everything for your stay. We highly recommend this beautiful home
Beautiful and Immaculate Home! Lots of amenities and Amazing sunsets!
We had a wonderful week in this beautiful home! So many amenities that we truly enjoyed…new hot tub, beach chairs/bikes, elevator, comfortable beds, spacious family room and kitchen area. In addition, the beach was close and the view from the back deck was amazing! Marccus was a pleasure to work with and we hope to return for another week!!
Shore Thing was a winner with us. Great location on the marsh and only a few minute walk to the beach. Beautiful home with great layout and like new. Property owner extremely easy to contact and very welcoming. Gave great recommendations for local eateries.
We stayed in this wonderful property with another family and their mother in law. It checked all the boxes in every way and we still are talking about what a great vacation it was. Marccus was so responsive and the house has everything you need and a very short walk to the beach. The views are amazing off the back decks. We will be back!

Wonderful ! Wonderful ! Wonderful!
This house is truly WONDERFUL! The pictures are very accurate of the home and it's furnishings. From extremely comfortable beds to magical sunsets, the house is very relaxing. The beach access is right across the main street. Easy to ride bikes and/or walk to. We enjoyed the sidewalks for afternoon walks as well. We had a wonderful visit. The kids were huge fans of the elevator as well!

Beautiful home, gorgeous views!
This home exceeded all of our expectations. Great location, tucked in to not hear road noise, but at the same time, a 5 minute walk to the beach!
Extremely clean and basically has everything you could need- awesome kitchen to cook in!
Linens, etc are nice quality. I’d compare this home to being at a very nice hotel/resort, top notch and will not disappoint!
We definitely plan on returning next year.
Our family was completely blown away by our stay in Surf City for Spring Break. The house is beautiful and views of the sound and sunsets are even better. Location is a short walk to the beach and a quick drive to Surf City bridge and pier. The little touches here and there made it a vacation to remember (Hot Tub, Loco Cooker, telescope, beach chairs and boogie boards, fully stocked with laundry detergent, dish soap, toilet paper etc.). Can’t say enough about how great the property was, we would definitely love to come back!
We enjoyed our stay at Shore Thing. The back of the house has a sound view with the best sunsets you can imagine. It was fun to watch all the boata and wildlife. Each bedroom has comfy beds and its own bathroom. There are tons of towels available and linens are included. Bring your own beach towels. There is also a Yeti backpack cooler, 10 bikes and chairs included. We had absolutely everything we needed and it was nice not having to take all that stuff. The hot tub was also a hit during our spring trip. A great house at the end of a cul de sac directly across from the beach access. We enjoyed our stay! Be sure to try the roller skating on the island!
Our recent visit with our daughter’s family was perfect in every way: the house is beautifully furnished, clean, and well-stocked. The owners were attentive to every question we had. The views of the marsh and waterway were beautiful and so relaxing. Every evening we enjoyed stunning sunsets over the marsh. Beach access is close by, literally at the end of the street. The house sits on a cul-de-sac that is perfect for children to ride bikes, scooters and skateboards. We will definitely be back!

Amazing house
This is the perfect place for you to take your family for a vacation. They're not lying about the views. the view of the sound is so peaceful and relaxing, and the house has everything you need. There is together space and decks for you to get in your alone time. It was fantastic. The owners are great and really easy to work with. They always communicated in a timely manner and addressed any questions or concerns. The beach was not crowded and just a short walk away. We had a fantastic week. I highly recommend this spot!

About the host
Hosted by Meg & Marccus Rubenstein
Meg and Marccus Meg owns an Interior Design firm in Raleigh NC and I rent construction equipment. Meg is a native of NC while I am a Marine Corps brat that literally couldn't nail down one place to say where I'm from. We have been married since 2003 and have one son, Jake. We are busy people who have always wanted our own home in the Topsail/Surf City area but couldn't justify owning one since we couldn't be there that often. So... we decided to dive in head first and do this VRBO thing.
Why they chose this property
We looked at many properties over the past few years and could never settle on "the one". We wanted to be close to the beach access but love a sound side view. This home checked all the boxes for us and it just so happens that it was a new home with a great reverse floorpan at the back of a cul de sac! Score!
What we didn't know we wanted was an elevator. Soooo convenient. Carrying groceries up two flights of stairs. NOPE! We didn't know we wanted a bathroom in every bedroom either and now I can't imagine not.
