About this property

Toes in the Sand

Come relax for the week and discover one of North Carolina’s best kept secrets. We like the uncrowded beach which makes for great sharks teeth and shell hunting. Waking up in the morning to see shrimp boats just off the coast, followed by dolphins is a treat.

The sunrise and sunset from this home is stunning. Spend your days swimming, surfing, fishing and relaxing on the sand before you head back inside to enjoy dinner with a spectacular view! It just doesn't get any better than this.

This home offers granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and plank floors throughout . Enjoy 2 oceanfront queen master suites with access to one of the two beachfront decks. Both master suites offer a private bathroom. The 3rd and 4th bedrooms offer 2 twin beds each and share a bathroom. There is extra sleeping space available in the living room with a queen sleeper sofa.

Hoping you'll enjoy all of the amenities you’re used to at home; we offer high speed internet, tv’s with cable in all the bedrooms, and smart tv's in the living room and master bedroom, an assortment of board games, cards, books, puzzles and a fully equipped kitchen. The dining room table seats 6, and another 4 sit comfortably at the counter. Laundry is conveniently located on the first floor, adjacent to the bedrooms.

His home is only used by guests for 3 months out of the year, and lovingly frequented by the owners for the remainder of the year.

Absolutely perfect beach home for family vacation!!
Couldn’t have asked for a better week at the beach! The location was amazing…beach was never overly crowded. The home was immaculate and beautifully decorated. You can tell it is a well loved home by the owners! The kitchen is so well stocked with anything you could think of needing for a week at the beach and more! The beds and bedding were so very comfortable and views were absolutely breathtaking! The owner was so quick to respond and great to work with! Thank you “Toes in the Sand” for being providing a dream vacation for our family…looking forward to coming back again!!!

Perfect Beach Getaway
Awesome place for a week at the beach! Had a total of 10 of us (4 adults, 6 kids) and the place worked out great for our week. We waaaay overpacked as the house had everything we needed. Super clean, and nicely kept. Beach front was fantastic. Even though you’re attached to two other units, we barely saw and never heard our neighbors. 10/10 would recommend!

Stunning, family friendly, beachfront property with gorgeous views and fantastic amenities!
My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Toes in the Sand. From start to finish, communications with our host were detailed, timely, and very helpful. The view of the ocean from the house's two decks was breathtaking and the beach was a short walk, exactly as advertised in the photos and description. The house was very clean, the linens provided were all fresh, and the amenities in the house made us feel right at home and signaled that the host gave a lot of thought to the decor and conveniences. Any questions were immediately responded to by our host and the keyless entry was fantastic for easy access to (and locking up) the house. One example of the excellent hospitality from our host - we discovered that the grill had a burner out and I notified the host for their awareness. Without hesitation, they replaced the grill the next day with a brand new grill and set everything up so that we would be able to utilize it right away. Talk about responsiveness! We would strongly recommend any families looking for a relaxing time away to book here. Evenings were peaceful and quiet, the private beach was amazing, and we were all so grateful to have the time together at this beautiful property. Many thanks to our hosts, Cheryl and Joe! We look forward to our next stay!

Perfect Beach Rental
This an ideal beach property exactly as pictured on the listing. The accommodations are modern, clean, comfortable, very well appointed and tastefully decorated. We prepared most of our meals here and every kitchen tool, gadget and serving dish were provided above and beyond what we expected. The owner was very considerate and always responds in a timely and helpful manner. Love, love, love this beach house. Will definitely return.

This is our second year leasing this property. House is nicely furnished. Access to beach can’t be beat. Kitchen has everything you might need to cook with.. Cheryl reacts quickly to any issue or question. My only issue is finding the driveway, especially at night.

Amazing location, stunning views and very family friendly
We had the best week staying at this Property. Cheryl was incredibly communicative before and during our stay. The house was very clean upon arrival and exactly as described. We saw dolphins from the deck the first evening!!! Kitchen was fully equipped - probably the best I’ve experienced at a rental. This is an end unit and we were stunned at how sound proof it was. Our neighbors the week we stayed had 3 small children. We didn’t hear them once! Very private. And you cannot beat the location.

Can’t recommend this property enough, not only for being a few steps away from the beach but for the communication with the property manager. She went above and beyond when we needed her. Excellent property as well. Pictures represent what you should expect. We would definitely stay here again.

Great week at the beach!
Toes in the Sand is a beautiful home right on the beach! The area was very quiet and the home was extremely well stocked with everything we needed to enjoy our trip! We had 8 adults and there was plenty of space to spread out, cook, and just relax. Cheryl has stocked the home with every utensil, dish, and pot/pan you can imagine as well as spices, oils, and other items needed to cook. A great time was had by all!

Wonderful Accommodations!
Our family had a great time staying here for our beach vacation. This was our first time in Topsail and we loved the beach, the water and how peaceful everything is there. The house was clean and nicely decorated. It had everything we needed for our stay - the welcome basket with supplies was a nice touch. Even the sheets brought a smile to our faces: expecting boring, white rental sheets our girls were pleasantly surprised by the fun prints. Overall a great house - would definitely book again!
