We had a wonderful stay with Ms Phoebe! She has a beautiful home and it really felt like we were staying with our Grandmother! She a wonderful lady, and breakfast was spot on! I would stay here again!
Everything good was close by and this place has the best relaxing feel. Its like being in your own familys home but better. No one to mess with you, just a delightful hostess to guide you on a better time to be had.
Very quiet peaceful serene spot, great food, took walks, went to the beach and shopping, great variety of local restaurants, took one of my teenage boys, Immaculate accommodation, hostess was very nice, lives on site, engaging conversation, abundant information on hand about local area and activities and directions. Fabulous sunroom and view.
This was a wonderful place to stay, convenient to Topsail and Surf City for a quick and stress-free visit. The BnB host is super, friendly, welcoming and accommodating. Thoughtful touches with nothing missed make you feel at home. We forgot our beach chairs, no worries, out host had it covered! Great communications from start to finish, comfortable bed with nice linens. The home is lovely with a nice view of the sound, in a quiet location. We would definitely stay again! If you're looking to go to the turtle center, book your visit when you make the reservations, it's popular for a reason and they fill up in advance! Our thanks to a classy host with a wonderful personality.

Our time at the VRBO was peaceful and quiet, while conveniently located near beaches, grocery stores, restaurants and craft beer pubs. The host is charming and serves a wonderful breakfast.
Owner is so sweet. This BnB like Vrbo is definitely the grandmas house at the beach feel. I mean you can't beat the views and the plants. Had such great sleep and a wonderful time. Will be back again.
Phoebe made us feel extremely at home, breakfast was delicious, and the property was gorgeous. You’re away from the business of the beach, but still close enough the quick head over for a visit! We loved staying there and would definitely come back.
Great getaway with close proximity to activities and exploring. Right on the ICW and kayaking the nearby backwater areas can’t be beat. Thanks for the hospitality Phoebe!
My husband and I had so much fun at Phoebe's bed and breakfast. The location was beautiful, and Phoebe's breakfasts were top notch! We stayed on the water most of our trip. We are thankful to have found this hidden gem and hope to return soon!
It was so nice to have Pheobe to direct us around the area. We felt well taken care of. Nice property and area. We just wish we could have stayed longer!
