We loved our stay at Our Happy Place! The rental had everything we needed from beach toys, outside seatings, dishes, and more. I would suggest bringing some extra blanket aid you get cold, but other than that, the place is stocked!! We are already planning our next trip!

This is our second time staying at this house. It's our favorite in Surf City and being able to bring our dogs makes it even better! Great location, it has everything you need for a beach vacation and so much space for everyone. Great host, we didn't need anything while we were there but the few messages we sent before we booked and checked in were answered right away. We will be back again

I cannot say enough of how great the time at Our Happy Place is! Great location, very accommodating with pets, and the host is absolutely amazing. As a Realtor I am able to work and enjoy the ocean, local shops, gym nearly and have some fun while still working. What an amazing getaway and I would highly recommend this adorable cottage house! With the fenced in backyard, screened in porch, it’s great for my dogs.I will be booking again & plan on many more stays here to make great memories!

Our stay was terrific. The home was clean and inviting, and had plenty of space for puzzles and games. Many games and books were available in the living room. The front porch is the perfect spot to read, visit, or watch the surf. And there were many spots available in the backyard as well as in the carport to lounge and relax. Just around the corner from restaurants and shops, too!

We had a great stay at My Happy Place. Great location, close to the beach. We could see and hear the ocean from the house. The house had everything we needed and more. The bedrooms were very nice, the master bath was very small but worked well for us. The screened in porch was one of our favorite spots to sit. There was a fenced in yard in back for the dog. I would highly recommend this house for you next visit to Top Sail, N.C.
