About this property

Pelican's Landing beachfront Home - recent 250K renovation

Pelican Landing - Over 2200 Sq/Ft
We just doubled the square footage upstairs!. The House has roomy decks that span the front of both levels of this vacation spot, with a picnic table in place for alfresco dining at sunrise and sunset on the ocean front deck, and any time in between. A two-leveled boardwalk leading to the beach has a built-in bench for relaxing a little closer to the sandy strand, and there’s an outdoor shower for rinsing that sand off your tootsies.

Inside Pelican Landing, living quarters and two bedrooms a King and Queen, occupy the first level, with three oceanfront King bedrooms and a kids bunk room on the top level.

Living/dining area: The living area offers two new sofas and two arm Rattan chairs. The sofas are blue with white coral print and matches the arm chairs. Cuddle up with matching pillows tossed on each sofa and enjoy the amazing view, or have a movie night with the wall mounted flat screen TV. Tile floors and tan walls lead to the sliding glass door to the deck add to the relaxed feel of this room. Starfish-themed lamps and seascape prints complete the homey décor.

The oceanfront deck offers two picnic tables perfect for morning coffee or evening dolphin watching.

Dining Area: From the weathered wood top dining room table, you’ll always have an ocean view, either from the triple window on the front of the house or the double window on the side. Eight white chairs with white curved spindle backs offer plenty of seating under a elegant shell chandelier. Should you need more, there are five white bar stools at the generously proportioned bar between the dining area and kitchen.

Kitchen: This U-shaped kitchen has all the cabinet and counter space you could possibly need for preparing anything from a yummy shrimp boil to a complex five-course gourmet dinner. New stainless steel appliances, ocean blue walls, black counter-tops and weathered white cabinets make the kitchen feel like a true beach vacation - no nautical detail has been over looked. Open the exterior door between the dining area and kitchen, by the end of bar, and step out onto a walkway that leads to both the front deck and the rear parking area, making for convenient trips to the car for provisions.

Bedroom One (first level): Has a king-sized bed. The adjoining bath, which also opens onto the hall. There is a linen closet with four shelves to provide plenty of space for all those beach towels.

Bedroom Two (first level): A relaxing queen-sized bed here, set before a pair of windows that let the Topsail Island sun shine in. There’s a shell-filled lamp on the night table, and new tile flooring.

Bedroom 3, 4 and 5 (top level): Step through the sliding glass doors of this oceanfront room onto a deck that spans the upper level and offers awesome views of Topsail Island’s sand and sea. Inside, ALL (6) bedrooms have 55" SHDTVs with Google Cast capability as well as live streaming TV

Bedroom 6 has a double and twin bunk bed for the kids.

Terrific home, great service by the owners

We loved our stay here, and the owners did everything possible to assure we enjoyed our time. We ran a writing workshop, and all our students loved it as well. We would definitely come back, and recommend it to others.

Great Beach Getaway!

Fantastic property in a fantastic location! We really enjoyed our time. It was very clean and had everything we needed for the week. We loved walking from the deck on to the beach and hearing the sound of the waves. Very close to Surf City restaurants and shops. John was nice to work with and communication was great. Highly recommend for a family get away. We will definitely come back.

Perfect beach location

This is the perfect house for a family beach vacation. 6 large comfortable bedrooms, 3 full bathroom, fully equipped kitchen, plenty of seating for larger family groups, steps away from the beach. This was our second time renting this property and we will rent again. The owner is easy to contact and very accommodating. You will not be disappointed!

So close to the beach!

The house has plenty of room and is super close the water! It wasn’t clean when we arrived, but apparently the previous guest were filthy! Communication with the owner was easy, respectful & he did whatever he needed to to make us happy. Dog friendly, kid friendly and we love when a beach house doesn’t have a million steps! We’ve already booked it again!

All work no play here!

We had a wonderful time with our family back in September. The house was beautiful and the view was even better. It wasn't like half the other postings on here - with a picture of the beach, only to find you are a mile away. The house is literally as close as you can get. It was so enjoyable to drink a cup of coffee and watch the waves, surfers, and even dolphins!

"Beauty and The Beach"

My husband, myself, and our Beautiful Black Lab had a wonderful weekend @ Pelican's Landing! The house was beautiful, comfortable, and located close to amenities. We only used the downstairs and could not fully enjoy the decks due to our winter stay, but we hope to get back during the warmer season to enjoy the outside of this beach house as well. The views are amazing and even if you stay inside to read a good book, you feel like you are right on the beach! We loved our walks, especially our Lab. We hope to return and highly recommend this property. Thank you!

Perfect Vacation!!

Pelican’s Landing is the perfect beach house for the perfect vacation! John is a wonderful host! A lot of thought went into making the house feel like home. We wanted for nothing in the kitchen as it is very well stocked to include Cuisinart small appliances. There was plenty of room for our family of 9. The beds are so comfortable. Each morning we would all comment to one another how comfy the beds were and how well we slept. We enjoyed many hours on the deck! The beach is steps away! We didn’t want to leave! Thank you, John, for the perfect vacation!

Pelicans Landing is a place we would return

The owner is very accessible. The location is great. The cleaners leave a bit to be desired. Supposedly the house is vivid clean- it definitely was not. There was mold in all showers and on all shower heads. Corn chips and other small trash was on the floor under the beds. The outdoor electric outlet is inop due to rust and water damage, GFI will not reset. Water pressure in jack and Jill bathroom is very low. Other than these small annoyances Pelicans Landing is a great place to revisit.

Simply wonderful.

Great family vacation. Everything you read is accurate. Will definitely be back. Read the details. There are no linens or bedding provided. Blankets and quilts are provided. Beautiful ocean front. Clean and safe. Friendly town Fun shops. Good food nearby and nice shopping. Great beachcombing. Just an awesome and memorable time for this 60ish couple and kids ages 30, 27 and 24. They had fun at the local bars and surf fishing during the day. Caught blueish in late December. A t.v. in every room. Great water pressure. Nicely decorated. Not too much but just enough. Room enough to be together or to spread out. Perfect is only way to describe this home. Bring some paper products to start out - toilet paper, paper towels and napkins.

Everything about this place was more than expected. It was way more than the pictures showed. It was the best place we have stayed since we started renting vacation homes 8 years ago. Perfect weather, perfect week and the owner was in touch to insure that our stay was enjoyable and Flawless. Will definitely book again.

Why they chose this property

Being located in Surf City, Pelican Landing is close to dining and shopping yet removed from the main crowds that can gather during peak weeks. You will feel like you have your own private beach with room to do as you please.

What makes this property unique

This property is great for large families to gather together and enjoy some activities or just some down time. The relative low number of steps to the traditional downstairs living area is easy on those that may have difficulty with a reverse floor plan requiring a longer climb to the top level to reach the living area.
