Great Stay

Great rental property for our family's summer vacation. The kitchen was well supplied for cooking meals, the beds were comfortable and there were plenty of beach items for kids and adults. We especially enjoyed the large windows in the dining area to view the beach and the July 4th fireworks!

Wonderful house and location

This was a large house right on the beach. You could not ask for a better location. Easy access to the sand with uninterrupted views of the ocean, yet walking distance to all Surf City has to offer. We went with some of our adult kids and our infant through early grade school grandkids. There was plenty of room and something to do for everyone.

Shore Bet is a spacious rental, with a layout that provides privacy. The home was clean and well stocked. The highlight of the home was the location Minor issues arose with appliances- but the management company was transparent with this, and they communicated well

What a place! Great service!

We had such a wonderful time staying at Shore Bet. Beautiful home, amazing views, convenient access to the beach, and top-notch support and service the whole time we were there. Blue Anchor was terrific, and any time we had even the slightest problem we had help arrive immediately. We can't say enough good things about this company and this property. It was a smash hit!

Perfect Beachfront Home!

I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a great beachfront home. We stayed with extended family and it was perfect for our group. Everything was as pictured (maybe even better). The property manager was wonderful and very communicative. Check in and check out were very clear and easy. The house is in a great location- walkable to restaurants and shops but didn’t feel too crowded in the beach. The house had everything we needed, including beach toys and chairs. I highly recommend this property- one of the better houses we’ve stayed at on Topsail (I’ve been coming for over 20 years).

Great location

Our family of 10 ranging in ages from 8-80 had a great time. Excellent location. The home is comfortable and the kitchen is well stocked. The elevator was a plus for my 80 year old parents and to get heavy bags and groceries upstairs. We appreciated the little doggie area so our dogs didn’t have to get Sandy when needing to use the bathroom. Very comfortable. Only thing missing was a bbq. Would stay again.

We are so pleased that your entire family enjoyed the house and it's location. Shore Bet has become a favorite for large family gatherings since it has an elevator and the bedroom setup is perfect for people of all ages. I do apologize for no grill on site. It is our policy not to keep a grill on site due to several houses burning down on the island from grill fires. We do allow grills from Sweet Dreams to be rented since they clean them thoroughly each time. We hope you will come back year after year!

Amazing vacation spot!

I can't say enough good things about Shore Bet. The house and location were perfect. Plenty of room for all! The beach location was perfect - close enough to walk to all the shops/restaurants in Surf City but far enough away you are out of the hustle and bustle! Definitely the best stocked house I have ever stayed in. Kitchen had everything you could need and more - you don't need to bring anything except your bathing suit! Boogie boards, beach chairs, towels - all there! We will definitely be back!

Great place for our April vacation

This place was amazing! Location was awesome as it was close to restaurants, the pier and great place on the beach. The house was very dog friendly, they had a place for the dogs to potty while using the deck to walk around and not get out. The house was very clean, well decorated, loved that it had a washer and dryer, kids bunk room had toys and games as well. We did have an issue with the keyless entry, property manager had a solution within an hour and gave us a giftcard for the inconvenience. Overall, I highly recommend this place!

Wonderful Beach House

Our family had a wonderful time on our beach vacation. The house was everything we wanted in a beach house. There was plenty of seating, the beds were comfortable, the house was stocked with everything we could think of needing, decor was very pretty, I could go on and on. The house location could not of been more perfect, besides the amazing beach views, it was a short walk to the majority of the stores and restaurants. We had a great stay and no issues, we did ask for an additional set of bathroom towels and they were quick and friendly in getting it to us. Thank you for allowing us to stay in this lovely home!

Family Vacation

Our family had such a memorable week. From the pre-booking questions to our final vacation day, all of our contacts from Blue Anchor Property Management were quick to respond, attentive, and very helpful. The property was very clean, cozy, and fully equipped with all we would need for a fun, relaxing, and stress-free vacation on the beach. The home elevator was certainly a bonus as we have a paralyzed dog that gets around on wheels. We made so many wonderful memories and hope to be able to return to make some more in this beautiful house. We would highly recommend this property.

Great Views; location, and Host!

Great house for a family with children and pets! Beautiful ocean views with a private entrance to the beach. Also ideal for responsible pet owners; a designated FENCED IN pet "bathroom" ! . Elevator is helpful for grandparents or to aid in stocking the kitchen upon arrival! Grocery stores and supplies are all within walking distance, yet you still have a privacy feel with the size of the house. Blue Anchor was great to work with and responsive to requests. We have booked again for our 2025 family vacation.

We had a fabulous week at this house! With 10 guests & 2 dogs, the space was perfect and comfortble. The house was very clean & tastefully decorated. So welcoming & relaxing. We saw no evidence of this being a pet friendly rental except for the convenient, enclosed outdoor pet area. This is exceptional and hard to find! The outdoor enclosed shower made it so easy to clean the sand off the dogs & ourselves before coming into the house. The outdoor deck area was fully enclosed with latching gates so that we could easily enjoy the outside views without worry about the dogs getting out. The private walkway to the beach made it easy to go back & forth as needed during the day. The sandy area at the bottom of the walkway was a little steep, & might be challenging for those with mobility issues, but we didn't have any trouble as its not far from the flat beach area. The surf was so enjoyable with flat level beach that goes out into the surf for a great distance. And after the tide begins to recede we found lots of interesting shells, sea glass & sharks teeth. The house is located near enough to shops & restaurants within walking distance; and with grocery delivery we avoided driving anywhere all week.The owner approved having 5 vehicles in the driveway and there was plenty of parking space for all 5. We have been vacationing in the Outer Banks and Topsail areas of NC Coast for 20 years and this is definitey one of the best properties we have rented. Highly recommend!!

Winning Shore Bet

Clean, well-maintained, spacious, and well-equipped home on the beach. Adequate parking for 4 cars on the driveway. We loved the sea views from both levels and the convenient location for easy shopping. The welcome kit was super helpful as was the Blue Anchor team. Kitchen had enough pots and pans for all our cooking. A few more coffee cups would have been even better - but then we were 9 of us guzzling tea and coffee all the time. 😃

Family getaway

We had a lovely stay at Surf City with my huaband and I and kids with friends. The house was clean and nicely decorated. The views of the sunrise were amazing and the ocean visible with large windows in every room facing it. We had our dog and were able to take him out on beach walks which he really enjoyed, then had a nice confined area he could use for potty breaks at the bottom of the stairs. The kitchen had all I needed to make several meals and was clean. There are a lot of stairs, but if have the elevator can work around that. As it was off season we did not awim too much in the ocean, but there is a good outdoor shower too! The stay was very nice and would recommend!

Tranquil beach sounds and family friendly

Property was really great. Well equipped kitchen amenities, beach gear, and other appointments, clean and a fantastic location on the beach. For people who struggle with stairs or if you have a lot of stuff to bring up, there is an elevator. The management company was superb- responsive, fair and kind. We’ve rented many homes over the years and Blue Anchor is by far the best management group to date. Comfortable furnishings, plenty of space and good outdoor spaces including a small fenced enclosure for dogs to do their business. Loved hearing the ocean waves- tranquil bliss.

They thought of everything!

This property was amazing! It was impeccably clean, and the location was perfect. The house was tastefully decorated, the beds were all comfortable, and even the layout of the bedrooms was perfect to accommodate our family. The common area was comfortable, with plenty of seating. We spent much of our time at the beach, with easy access from the multilevel deck, but we also enjoyed movies on the multiple large screen TVs and enjoyed some friendly competition at the ping pong table. My grandsons went crazy when they saw the big tub of beach toys, and the adults loved the quality of beach chairs for our use. The elevator came in handy to get luggage and groceries up to the main 3rd floor. This property was all that we asked for and more. I highly recommend!
