Such a perfect gem!

Fort Knox was exactly what we needed for our family vacation! What a great spot! It was very close to the beach and a spot with few people. We walked to the beach 2-3 times a day. Was it a fashion plate? No, but we came to see the beach. Awesome water pressure! Beautiful view for our morning coffee on the porch- we could hear the ocean, we could even see a little. Awesome place that made us all fall in love with Topsail! Thanks!!

Fort knox

The house was missing a lot of necessities. There were no sheets for beds. No towels what so ever. 1/2 roll of toilet paper. No paper towels. Ward realtor informed me the following day I could rent them!! There was nothing in the description of this property that indicated that I would not receive any of these things or I would not have rented this property. I had to drive 30 minutes to the nearest Walmart at 9 PM to go get sheets, Towels and toilet paper.

Hesitant, but still have a good rating.

Honestly, I have no complaints about the property itself. Convenience of washing machine, almost a view to the water, close to the beach, quiet street with great neighbors....the whole 9. BUT, on 2 occasions the property manager came unannounced. One of the chairs was broken so he came to pick it up day 1 and before my wife answered the door, he started to come in. On the second occasion, he just walked into the house while my wife and kids were there. I did not like that AT ALL! All just to bring a chair back AND telling us we could not use it because it wasn’t dry yet? So I was hesitant about giving 5 stars, BUT...everything ng was great
