Summary:

Island Spirits Topsail Island Large Family Beach Rental at Oceanfront Topsail Island



The Space:

Rents Saturday to Saturday for weekly stays.

5 Bedrooms / 3 Bathrooms / Sleeps 13



Your spirits will soar at Island Spirits, a generous and gracious home with oceanfront views designed to embrace a large family in style, just a scamper down the road from the sand dunes crossover. This home was built after a classic floorplan for maximum sleep time privacy with a crowd: a quad foundation level of bedrooms fore and aft, each side sharing ensuite access to a Jack n Jill bath. But, Mom and Dad will be in bliss on the top floor where they can preside over the open living space. French doors, spaces filled with natural light, vaulted ceilings, and an unbeatable view of the ocean will fill your vacation home with the heartbeat of the island. The showstopper is a massive solid wood, custom designed family dining table where 10 people can gather around the table together. Comfortable, classic furnishings and tasteful decor put the focus on family and love.

Things To Do

Topsail Island is a hidden gem along the NC coast, known for its pristine beaches, crystal-clear waters, and charming coastal towns like Surf City. From sunbathing and swimming to fishing and surfing, there are plenty of outdoor activities to enjoy on this beautiful island. Explore the local shops and restaurants, take a fishing cruise out with an area fishing guide, or simply relax on the beach and soak up the sun. With so much to see and do on Topsail Island, your vacation will be filled with unforgettable memories and moments of pure relaxation. Topsail Island is a 28-mile-long barrier island made up of marshes, estuaries, dunes, and shorelines. Sandwiched between the Atlantic Ocean and the Intracoastal Waterway, “Tops’l” as the locals call it, is home to several fishing piers including the Seaview Fishing Pier. 875 feet of planks were used to construct this pier, which is the longest pier on the North Carolina coast. Privately owned shops, restaurants and attractions abound on Topsail, as well as the neighboring mainland towns. Learn the history of Topsail at the Missiles and More Museum and understand how to be a good steward of the sea at the Touch Tank Aquarium in Surf City and the Karen Beasley Sea Turtle Rescue & Rehabilitation Center for laid back and family friendly things to do on Topsail. Each of these attractions offers its own unique charm and adds to the allure of a vacation on Topsail Island.

We look forward to your visit!

Great home!

We had a small family reunion with 10 adults and 1 one year old and this home was perfect. Kitchen, living area was big enough to manage everyone comfortably. Beds were also comfortable. We have talked about booking this same home again.
