About this property

Last minute savings! August 19-28.

We all need something to look forward to ....
SummerSalt is the perfect spot to have a Topsail Island vacation! We repeatedly have guests tell us and leave reviews saying that SummerSalt is "the cleanest VRBO house we have ever stayed in" and now we know our guests value that even more with COVID19.

We have worked to make this home ready for your arrival with tasteful, clean decor and ample opportunities to do all of your favorite beach activities. Make memories while you enjoy the sun, swimming, surfing, search for shells, or just relax with your family and friends. SummerSalt offers views of the ocean with a quiet, convenient beach access just a few yards away.

Start your day with your morning coffee on the large front deck as the sun rises over the ocean. Then walk to the beach for a day of collecting shells, jumping the waves and building your very own sand creation. Then return to SummerSalt for more outdoor pleasures by lounging in your private pool with a large tanning ledge. And don't miss your chance to shower outside in a private shower with the smell of salty air. There's an outdoor gas grill in the backyard for your cooking pleasure or you could pick up some yummy seafood from a local restaurant!

SummerSalt has a fully-equipped kitchen, digital cable television, 4 flat screen televisions, high-speed wireless internet access, and many other amenities! SummerSalt is a family-friendly house with puzzles, cards, games and books available for all ages. We work to make sure you arrive with nothing to worry about. Linens are provided, beds are made, and we have some basic essentials in the cabinets so all you have to shop for is food and beverages. We take great pride in preparing the house for each guest so your arrival is abundantly pleasant and you can leave all your worries behind.

For anyone not familiar with Topsail Island and Surf City, we'll be happy to answer any questions and help you find interesting things to do. It's a quaint little beach town with something for everyone. There are golf courses nearby, jet ski and boat rentals, opportunities to learn about marine life, fishing, equipment rentals (surfboards, bikes, kayaks), shopping, craft markets, worship services, exercise classes, and more.

There's no better place to enjoy all these things than SummerSalt, where you have your own slice of heaven with everything you need. Contact us with any questions.

Reiter/Machamer Family Vacation July 2024
This was one of the best family vacations!! The house and the pool were absolutely wonderful and the short walk to the beach was also a plus! We enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again...hopefully next time with a couple grandchildren (we're still waiting for those little guys to make an appearance) The house is definitely set up with family and children. Great place to stay...thank you for sharing your house with us!!

July 2024 Visit
This is our second time staying here and we will continue to always stay here when visiting Topsail Island. The house is very close to the beach and walking distance to town. All six of us loved the backyard and pool. The house and outdoor beach closet is very well stocked. Trudy is very responsive and wonderful to rent from.

Wonderful Family Experience
The Surf City property was clean, family friendly, and amazing. The proximity to the beach access was convenient and the kids enjoyed a lowkey afternoon and evening swim in the pool after spending the day on the beach. The property owners were great to deal with and we have already booked our stay next year.

Perfect family getaway!
Our second summer visiting Summer Salt and it was perfect! The house is comfortable with everything you need, we didn’t have to pack a bit of beach gear! The proximity to the beach is great and an easy walk even with littles. The neighborhood is quiet and close to the restaurants and shops we visited. Our two favorite new spots were The Crab Pot for delicious food and Herring’s Outdoor Sports for shopping. We’ll be back!!

Beautiful home and location humming with life!
We adored our stay! The fact that the pool was heated tbh saved our chillier than anticipated vacation and the host was super quick to help us when we were unsure how to start it! The house was absolutely stocked to the rim with everything you could want for a beach trip! Floats/chairs/wagon/sand buckets/boogie boards you name it! Books to borrow, games for the kids. I’ve never seen a home to equipped as a rental. I felt ridiculous that I packed anything for the kiddo. The only nitpicking I could fathom is the showers were camper-sized as other reviews had warned. The fridge constantly hummed (slightly annoying) and front porch was squeaky when settling in with a book! Nothing can ever be quite perfect but I absolutely loved my stay and when I woke my 4 year old up to leave she cried, not wanting to leave “summer”.

Great for young family!
We stayed here as a family of 5 with children ranging from age 1-5 and this place couldn’t have been more perfect! The pool was exceptional, especially the shallow ledge for little littles. It was a quick walk to the beach. The kids loved the bunk beds upstairs. We all got hooked on searching for shark teeth and the kids have been begging to go back for months since we left!

Look forward to booking again
This is my 3rd time staying at this beach cottage, and it was once again a fabulous home to vacation in. Our kids had a blast at the pool when the day was too hot for the beach. It comes stocked with fresh clean towels and linens, cleaning supplies, pool/beach toys, and board games--all the things a busy parent needs for a fun and stress-free week away from home. It truly is the best place on the island and we look forward to booking again!

An amazing pace to stay in a quiet little beach town
Trudy and Mark and their SummerSalt home set a new level of expectations for a beach house! We were welcomed with a nice box of delicious baked goods, a very clean house stocked with plenty of amenities and sometimes overlooked necessities, comfortable beds, an awesome saltwater and heated pool and a very short walk to the beach. There were ample towels, beach towels, beach chairs, floaties for the pool, boogie boards, skim board, sand toys, puzzles and board games, etc. Trudy and Mark have basically thought of everything. The only downside was the small shower in the upstairs which was tight, but doable. Overall, an amazing place to stay in a quiet, serene beach town.

About the host

Hosted by Trudy & Mark Solomon

Host profile image
We are a local TI family. We enjoy being outdoors and being a part of the TI community. Our motto is - leave things better than you found them (the island, the beach). We are always looking for ways to improve this property and helping others find the beauty of Topsail Island, the marine life, and the pleasure of enjoying this magnificent place we get to call home.

Why they chose this property

South Shore Drive between the pier and the S-curve is the perfect location. It's close to everything but it's not a high-traffic road. This area is an easy place to enjoy walking, biking and being out and about. SummerSalt provides you with such an EASY vacation, with access to water, sand, and fun. You will feel like it's your home away from home, not just another rental.

What makes this property unique

We fell in love with this home because of the large but secluded backyard. It was the perfect place to install a pool, add a large deck and enclose a hot/cold outside shower. We loved updating the interior of the home, making clean and simple decorating choices while we provided the amenities that we've all come to count on. And the location is perfect - a quiet street that gives you the ability to safely walk or bike wherever you'd like to explore. There are plenty of businesses in less than one mile and a nice park too, with access to the Intracoastal Waterway, or what we call "the other side of the island." This property is truly a gem, with comfortable indoor living space but terrific outdoor living spaces too!
