First of all - Julie is one of the nicest, most thoughtful hosts! From having doggie supplies available to leaving us a welcoming card on the counter - she was readily available without being over-bearing. Bonus - checkout process is simply taking out our stuff, food, and trash. It was great to just do the obvious instead of a long list of things like I've had at other properties.Now on to the property - the location is GREAT! Since it's north of Topsail proper, you don't get into beach traffic because you turn long before the crowding begins. There is traffic before the bridge, mostly because of the main 4-way and slow traffic light - but this is only a problem if you're arriving Sat around 2-3pm or leaving Sat morning around 10am. We didn't check-in/ out on a Sat so no problems for us! And - very few people on the beach because the public parking is over a mile south (west) of the house and there's no hotels, and the land only allows for housing on the beach side and maybe one house across the two-lane road, on the sound side. In Topsail proper there are homes extending several blocks away from the beach and multiple hotels - so lots of traffic and then crowds on the beach.And the house - all new, and the kitchen has excellent appliances and plenty of countertop space, open kitchen-living room design so my sons were able to play video games and watch movies while I got dinner together. The decking is nice and large - and we loved the porch swing! Highly recommend!
