SOME KIND WORDS FROM OUR GUESTS:
"Jamie’s place is amazing. The location is perfect. The view is perfect. The place is very clean and well-maintained. Both Jamie and the property manager are extremely helpful and responsive. Will definitely come back." Michael
"This place is awesome, Jamie provided everything we could need, it was immaculately clean, the location is unbelievable. The layout of the house was perfect for us and our needs, and it was very well furnished and decorated. We have rented beach houses on topsail every year for nearly a decade now and Jamie’s was the best so far. 5/5 in all categories, we would definitely stay here again." -Nick
"Jamie’s place was absolutely gorgeous! The interior was beautifully decorated, crisp, and clean. Watching the sunrise over the beach from the hot tub was an absolute dream. Everything exceeded my expectations. I had a very short trip, but enjoyed every minute!" Zoe

--PETS--
Some pets do better than others on vacation. We are happy to consider your dog without a pet fee. If you would like to bring your dog please send us an inquiry telling us a little bit about him or her. We ask that he/she be well-trained and not go on beds or sofas as these fabrics are hard to remove fur from. We allow up to 2 dogs. We provide dog blankets for furniture.
--OTHER THINGS TO NOTE--
We recommend purchasing private traveler's insurance as we do not offer refunds for cancellations outside of our policy. Hurricane season runs from June 1st -November 30 in NC with most activity in September and October. Trip interruption insurance (travel insurance) is highly recommended during these months. If the island evacuates, then we would certainly refund.
