Great week
We had a great week at Topsail! The house was very accommodating for us all!

We appreciated the deck updates! Our elderly dog kept us on the main floor so we didn't use upstairs at all during this visit.

We loved our stay here! We could not find a guest experience book in the property. That's not a big deal but we wanted to say how much we loved it there. The couches in living room were a bit small but we understand the space limitations.

Our stay was fantastic! We appreciated the kitchen and the amenities it offered! The living area had ample comfortable seating. We loved being right on the beach! The added bonus of not needing to bring towels and bedding was much appreciated.

We have been staying in the same property the last 3 years, booked with Ward Realty. We have already reserved this property for the same week next year. We have been coming to Top Sail since 2013, and stayed at other properties and used other Real Estate companies. Ward Realty and Misty Morning South are our favorites!

Overall, 3990 Island drive south is a great property that we will continue to rent as long as it us available and Ward Realty is a great company to deal with. North Topsail Beach is our favorite summertime vacation.

The whole experience with the property and Ward Realty was excellent. Any correspondence between Ward and myself was done in a timely manner and attention to detail was exceptional. I have rented properties on the island from other realtors and Ward was the easiest company I have dealt with so far. I will definitely rent property from Ward again. Thanks for the wonderful experience.

This property was absolutely gorgeous inside and out. It was one of the best places that we have ever stayed at Topsail Beach. We will definitely be staying very p.m. and referring other people to this duplex. Thank you for a wonderful stay.
