Oceanfront home with beach boardwalk, outdoor shower, decks - dog-friendly
New in our program, this home as many great reviews from past guests!
Look no further! This oceanfront home is the vacation you've been dreaming of with its expansive decks and sun-drenched living spaces. Stroll along the sprawling boardwalk to the sandy beach, where you can play for hours in the surf, sand, and sea. A beautifully landscaped yard with a convenient outdoor shower and water hose make cleanup a breeze.
On the first floor, a common space features a lounge area, mudroom, laundry area, and a kitchenette that includes a mini-fridge and sink. Step out to the covered oceanfront deck and find a shady spot to soak up the salty breeze, or take the steps down to the boardwalk to experience it firsthand. (All guest bedrooms are also on this floor.)
On the second level, a spacious living area offers soaring ceilings and huge windows with ocean views. There's also a top-floor deck where you can relax and soak up the Carolina sunshine. The fully equipped kitchen has everything the chef in your group will need and more!
The primary suite is also located on the top floor and boasts ocean views, direct access to the deck, and an en suite bathroom.

Loved the ocean views from the large windows and balconies. The only real negative was the entryway. Almost impossible to unlock the front door so we had to leave it locked and go in and out the back way. The blinds on the main bedroom door going into deck is in bad shape and needs to be replaced.

Great spot for a family
The house was clean, plenty of room and has everything you'd need. It's within walking distance to shops, restaurants and the pier. We had a very nice meal at Daddy Mac's and the folks who run the pier are very welcoming people.

Great Location!
The location of the beach house was fantastic and I also liked that it wasn't a duplex or triplex because it afforded some privacy. With newer beach homes, I always feel like everyone is right on top of each other. Very dog friendly. Would stay again.

Amazing Views and Floorplan
The furninshings were older but comfortable and cozy. The beds were comfy, too. The views from all 3 decks were fantastic and you can see both sunrise and sunset each day. Highly recommended for ocean lovers traveling with pets.

Turtle point
Location is good
Lots of windows with great views
Good beach access
House needs some updates- air conditioner leaked causing the ceiling to collapse
Broken deck chairs
Broken toaster
Needs more kitchen utensils. There was only one baking pan to cook with . The master bedroom window on left side needs repaired . Light flickered every time dryer was turned on. Spacious kitchen ands master bath were great, Windows on ocean side were nice.
Overall, great spot that is ideally located, with beautiful views, directly on the beach. Certainly needs many updates, but good value for the price.
Next time we will read more closely re: steps. This house is a chocked full of steps.

Great location, house needs a little love
Couldn't ask for a better spot in Surf City. We walked the beach and the street to stores, dinner, and ice cream. The beach was private and quiet. The porches provide great view of the ocean and sunsets.
The home could use a good cleaning and a few updates. There are books everywhere, so storage is a bit tricky. In its prime, I'm sure it was a gem. We enjoyed our stay.
It was so lovely the time of yr we went, as it was beginning season. But that view and the open space in the man room. The entire week, everyone just kept saying what a great house. There are soo many books to pick from I wish there were more for little kids. But this place is the perfect distance from food and shops. It’s not on the busy part of the beach. 100% will be booking again. Loved the kitchen and dinning space.. also Soo many Great restaurants and things to do with the family while there. It was fun to celebrate 2 birthday in this home. Thanks again.

Wonderful house
Definitely an older home with less amenities than newer or renovated options. However, I loved the layout of this house and the good use of space. Tons of storage in the kitchen and bathrooms. Huge dining table and comfy living room furniture. New modern decking on the stairs and porches. Lots of stairs! No TVs in the bedrooms. Loved listening to the waves from every room in the house.

Turtle Point Stay
This is an older house with a unique design. The furniture is comfortable however it is outdated. The deck and stairs have been updated with weather proof materials. The beds were comfortable and adequate for our family of nine. The kitchen was well stocked and there was plenty of room for our groceries. Having starter packs of soaps, paper towels and toilet paper is an added convenience. There is an outside faucet for rinsing off, however there is no enclosed outside shower. The house is conveniently located on the beach with a relaxing view of the ocean from the decks.

Disappointing
The location is great and the home does have a beautiful deck with great views. We were disappointed in the cleanliness of the home and with Vacasa’s response time when concerns came up. A text response came via text at 2AM on one occasion. The home was not well supplied - there were not enough glasses or cups for a group of 9 (plenty of plates though!)

Great Oceanfront, dog-friendly home!
If you're looking for an affordable, dog-friendly oceanfront home with great outdoor space, this is it! We are a party of two with our beloved fur-baby and we did not want to stay in a tiny single room or condo with partial view. Trying not to break the bank, it was challenging to find an oceanfront home in central Surf City/Topsail, that offered a large deck and an open family room/Kitchen. I read all the reviews, realize the house was dated and that I may need to spot clean to my liking, but the price was right, so I booked the Turtle Point home and am happy I did!
Pro's: LOCATION & PRICE. Centrally located and the beach is in great shape at this location. Tucked off the main busy road, it was quiet and safer for walking the dog. This home has great bones including a large composite upper deck off the main family room. The bed was comfortable and the water pressure was great in the shower. Grateful that there was an outdoor hose/shower head, direct access to beach from the lower deck, washer/dryer and we loved the rocking chairs. Fantastic direct ocean views from the large windows/slider in the family room and Western views from the smaller deck on the front side of the home.
Now the CONS... I am particular as far as how I clean, what I bring for comfort and knowing that this is a dog-friendly home that hosts many guests non-stop. This home is in demand year-round, so it's got to be challenging to give Management and the cleaning service time to do a deep clean in between guests, but it really needs a deep clean and a few updates. I recommend bringing an extra step out bath towel or two if that is important to you. I always pack extra hangers, house shoes/slippers, favorite wine glasses/ TERVIS/YETI, back up sheets/dish towels/extra soap/laundry supplies/Clorex wipes as I tend to clean more than the avg. guest, but that's me and I expect it & do it knowing it makes me feel better.
***PAY ATTENTION to the check-in rules regarding the "Anderson door" - how it unlocks and how you need to lift up the handle etc. Also note that you can easily get locked out unless you undo the auto-lock feature after the front door has been locked. Test the door handle before shutting the front door as you can easily lock yourself out. For the value, this house is great. Just know it's not going to be the Taj Mahal, but it was just what we needed for the price and we were happy we made Turtle Point our home away from home. Cheers and happy vacation home shopping!
We had a great time! Location is beautiful and the house has lots of space. I will say however that it needs a deep cleaning. Flat surfaces are dusty. House is dirty.
Only complaint master bedroom upstairs the outside lights of neighbors shines into the window even with the current curtains so might need to make some small adjustments. Other than that it’s a great place to stay!!!

Beautiful location
Our family (and dogs!) loved the location of this home. The beach views were lovely and you could hear the waves from the master bedroom. Decor was nice. Kitchen inventory could use some bolstering (older pans, need more silverware and glassware). Had a wonderful stay

Wonderful family vacation
The house was perfect for our family. We vacation each year with our 3 adult children so they each had their own room. The downstairs living room was exactly the right size to give the kids their own space. The kitchen was plenty big for all of us at the same time. Location of the house was great!

No Vacasa managed property again
Ceiling fans disgusting, previous renter crumbs everywhere, Vacasa non responsive prior to arrival, not timely after arrival and not clean.
Property is dated but comfortable. The washer and dryer worked. That's the best I can say about them. The property was cleaned, but not really clean. We both got splinters from the wood railing, More steps than shown in pics. Pic is of the ocean side, not street side. We enjoyed our stay just to get away and relax, but we would not rent this property again.

Great location.
Great location. Upstairs hvac heat pump compressor was not operating therefore no cooling or heating capabilities. At least the electric auxiliary heating element worked. No toilet paper. No dish soap. No dish towels.
Spent 5 days and 5 nights without A/C not a pleasant experience with the hot weather we had. TV was almost impossible to operate could not find any local stations and house had more stairs than I remember seeing in the pictures of the house. So might stay was not pleasant at all.
