We liked location which was one block off the beach w very close access to the beach there was space for our 20 ft trailer which was a big plus. Neighborhood was quiet off season, lots of walkers. House was very clean and had well stocked kitchen. Furnishings comfy.
It was really clean and close by a bunch of good food. Enjoyed the house overall there was nothing bad I have to say it was a comfortable

Relaxing & Nice
Rental was very nice! Easy check-in, we had everything we needed for our stay. Comfortably accommodated 6 of us. We enjoyed and would stay again. The neighbors were all very nice as well!
We rented this cottage for a house hunting trip. It was a great location and a wonderful of the ocean and short walk to the beach. The cottage clean and well maintained. Cute traditional beach cottage.
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.

All in all great stay
We had a great time minutes from the beach. The only bad thing was dishes were left in dishwasher when we arrived that were not cleaned. Therefore, one of the better experiences i have had renting
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
