The house was clean and beach views were amazing from every room in the house. Andy was very responsive to any questions that we had. We enjoyed our morning coffee in the deck with amazing sunrises.

Captain Andy’s is an amazing property. The house was very clean. The beach was private. Most days we didn’t have anyone within 100 yards of us on either side. The views from the deck are wonderful, and this deck sits higher than the neighbors, so it also feels very private. He has all the beach chairs, toys and boogie boards you need. The kitchen also has all the tools you need for breakfast, lunch or dinner at home. And you’re within walking distance to the best ice cream shop on the Island - Scoops. I traveled with my husband and two sons, as well as my sister and her husband, and my parents. The bedrooms in the house were set up perfectly for us and my boys loved the bunk bed room. The outdoor shower was a hit as well. Don’t hesitate to book this property if you’re lucky enough to find it available.

Beachfront Paradise!

Captain Andy's is a clean, comfortable home away from home with a spectacular ocean view. This was our second time staying here with our family and it won't be our last. We've stayed at other beach houses on Topsail but Captain Andy's tops them all!

Captain Andy’s is an awesome home. It is beautifully decorated and well equipped with everything plus more! The views are spectacular of both the ocean and the inlet! We’ve been coming to Topsail for 50+ years and couldn’t have been happier! Great place!

Best beach vacation ever

Excellent views, on the beach, only a short walk to the water, wonderful deck, all rooms face the beach and open to the decks!! The beds are comfortable and the kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need to cook, including specialty tools for cooking seafood you can purchase fresh off the dock just two blocks away. We loved it!!

One of the nicest houses we have rented

House was in great condition and well-maintained. Kitchen was well-supplied and everything worked fine. Beach sand was the finest, cleanest and least shelly of most beaches I have been to in NC. Would absolutely stay there again.

A great beach place!

This house was so well-stocked with all a family needs, including beach chairs and toys! Only one suggestion--have Windex on hand to clean the glass-covered dining table.

Thanks David. There is usually a bottle of Windex under the kitchen sink but the cleaners might have wandered off with it. Please come again!

Amazing house with incredible views

This is a beautifully decorated house with unobstructed views of the ocean from all four bedrooms. In a very quiet portion of the beach with plenty of parking. Great for families. We had a wonderful time and look forward to renting this home again in the future.

Celebrating Family Time !

This was all that was advertised....lovely home, well equipped, fabulous views, easy beach access and much more. Topsail is a quiet area that is perfect for family time away from all of the commercial activities of many other beaches. Captain Andy is easy to work with and offers a lovely "home away from home". Our family had a great week !
