First time in topsail. Great overall experience. House had everything and more. Kitchen was fully stocked and was perfect for eating in. Beach was an easy walk and had tons of open space. Neighborhood was fantastic and walking around the point was a daily treat. Highly recommend and Shannon was a great host.

Our family of 4 really enjoyed this house for a week. Location is perfect if you're looking for a quiet and extremely clean beach. We loved exploring around the point and having the option for swimming at the sound. The house was as described with great decor, very clean, and stocked with everything you need. Best VRBO booking I've ever had!

Beautiful house made for a beautiful vacation

My family had the best time staying here. The owners really thought of everything, and were so kind and communicative. The house is clean, beautiful, and had everything we needed. The neighborhood is great as well. Right across from the pool and steps to the ocean. Would stay here 100 times over.

Simplicity at Topsail

The townhouse was very peaceful, clean, and beautiful. It had everything we needed. Having the coffee and tea, and other items available was wonderful. The furniture was comfortable and everything was well-organized and comfortable. There were plenty of books, games, and items to use at the beach.

The house was lovely. We are happy that they are preserving the point! I have two complaints. One, the livingroom furniture needs updated. The sofas sag, and the chair. Was so flimsily made that only our 11year old grandson could sit in it. There was no way that our party of six could watch a movie together. Two, I have never paid such a high cleaning fee. I knew about it in advance, and accepted it, but then, upon arrival, I was surprised at how much of the cleaning we were expected to do before leaving. I’ve never had to sweep, strip beds, or dry and put away dishes in any rental before. Overall, the property was spacious and nice. Our host was amazingly responsive to all questions.

We had an amazing, peaceful vacation at this awesome home. It is a short walk to the beach access, directly across from the pool, and the sound is right down the street. The house is just as pictured, very nicely decorated, and fully stocked with everything you could need. The house was also very clean! Thanks for sharing your amazing home with us.

The Sparkling Southern Tip of Topsail

One of the best homes we have stayed in at Serenity Point. Very clean and nice. Very well-equipped kitchen. Just across the street from the pool, and close access to both the ocean side and sound side of the island. The property manager checked in with us multiple times to make sure everything was okay. We had a completely lovely stay here.

You don't need to bring it - this house already has it!

We brought beach chairs, beach shade, beach cart, etc. - didn't need any of it - left it all in the SUV. The house already had everything we needed. Next time I'll leave all this stuff at home and save the room as I could just barely get everything in the SUV. My kids are late teens, so we did bring some age-appropriate beach games like bocce ball. The house did have toys for little kids. The house is as described in the ad - clean and well equipped. We didn't even need to buy coffee filters or coffee. Shannon (owner) was very attentive and checked in with me via email during the week. It’s a duplex but for most of the week, no one was in the other side. My 17-year-old enjoyed the loft, and it was great to have 3 beds. The sun did wake him up early which was a bonus for us. The roll-away and air mattress in the closet are good to have options. If you haven't been to Topsail, it's a nice beach island away from the crowds of places like Myrtle Beach. This house is about 1/2 way in the middle between the bay and the ocean and immediately across the street from the pool. We used the ocean and bay equally, so the location was great. We won’t rent a place without a pool, and we noticed very few properties in Topsail have pools so this one was appreciated and used frequently. Topsail Tip - rent a boat from Topsail Boat Rentals so you can explore the sand bars that pop up during low tide on the bayside. Everyone thought the boat was the highlight activity of the trip. I have had some awful VRBO rentals in the past. This house was great, and I would rent it again - that is the biggest compliment I can give.

What an amazing place! You will not find a better host than Shannon! She goes above and beyond to make sure you have a relaxing and wonderful vacation. The place is beautiful and has everything you will need for your stay. The location is perfect; super close to the pool and quick and easy access to the beach and sound side where we enjoyed watching the sunset every evening. Having your own outdoor shower was an added perk and everyone slept great on super comfy mattresses. We had a great vacation!

Fabulous place!

The place was clean and well stocked. We could not say enough about the location. Convenient access to the ocean and sound side! Comfy bedding and kitchen has all you will need for cooking. Loved that you can see the pool from the front porch to see if it’s a good time to stroll over. The pool was never crowded during our stay and there is a sheltered seating area to avoid the sun. We were very impressed and our grandson had a great time.

About the host

Hosted by Shannon C.

Host profile image
Originally from the mountains of western North Carolina, I have been in love with our beautiful coast since a young age, especially since I was only able to get to the beach once a year. I remember my parents driving down to the ocean so I could say goodbye to it at the end of our vacation. That’s why I know how important this vacation is to you and your family, whether it's once a year or more frequent. My home is your home away from home, and I provide as many amenities and essentials as possible so it's easy to be here. I handle all of the communications and property management myself and pay great attention to making this your best vacation so you can simply relax and enjoy your time with loved ones.

Why they chose this property

The Point at the south end of Topsail Island is a rare gem! 150 acres of forever protected coastline makes it one of the last large natural areas in NC’s barrier islands. It is the most relaxing, peaceful place I’ve ever seen, and our family is excited to share it with you.

What makes this property unique

Nature, quiet, wide conserved beaches, fresh seafood, spectacular sunsets, wildlife, family time. Need I say more?
