Everything about the stay was really good! Luke was very communicative and helped to ensure ease of check in and check out process. All basic amenities provided, in addition, plenty of kennels/crates for my dog, nice outdoor shower to wash off sand, tv, internet, W&D, even used a provided beach bag to collect sea glass and shells. Small cottage perfect for 2 adults (plus our dog). We would have used the underside of the cottage to hang out, but it was just too humid. Enjoyed the beach though! Would stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Luke Glusco

Host profile image

Jodi and Luke live just up the street, in the house that used to be their other vacation rental. They have been welcoming guests to "The Piper" since 2023. ... We love North Topsail and hosting this wonderful little bungalow. We're constantly looking for ways to upgrade. We hope you'll find the place awesome now and even better if you return in the future!

Why they chose this property

We love that our street is a bit out of the way and fairly quiet, yet the beach and sound are a very short walk away.

What makes this property unique

The dog kennel, outdoor shower and decks are among the things we really like.
