Visiting
I was in the area to visit the grandson and family. This was the perfect location to stay. It was quiet and perfect size for me. Kids visited one evening and grandson loved the balcony. Unfortunately Mother Nature gave me 2 days of rain but the beach setting was very relaxing. Even saw dolphins on the morning of check out!! Definitely would stay here again.

Great family getaway
Alan’s condo is a gem! He was extremely responsive to every message which made communication so easy. We woke up and had our morning breakfast over looking the beautiful ocean and spent evenings out there watching the sunset. It became our little pocket of peace. The condo itself has everything you need. The kitchen, bedroom space, and a washer and dryer. It just made our stay feel like we were at home. I can’t think of anything better than a stress free weekend away. We spent everyday by the pool and collected beautiful seashells along the shore. The biggest take away was the area was quiet yet close enough to downtown surf city. We had such a great stay, it was hard to leave. We can not wait to return!

Quick Beach Trip
We really enjoyed our short trip to North Topsail Beach. The ocean view at The Driftwood was beautiful! The condo was very clean and beautifully decorated. We were able to cook in one night and the kitchen had everything we needed. Great location with very easy beach & pool access. Do wish there was an elevator, going up all the stairs with a bad knee and luggage was a little tricky.

Great property
Loved the unit and proximity to the beach. Balcony had a nice beach/ocean view and kids loved the pool too. Property is up a couple flights of stairs so be prepared for a little workout hauling beach stuff up. Property complex also has a playground, basketball hoop and various outdoor games that the kids loved. It is located on a fairly quiet stretch so not a ton of places to eat in the immediate vicinity and the grocery store is a little drive but we brought food for the weekend so it wasn’t an issue. Overall loved our stay.

“Best beach trip ever” - my kids
We had the most amazing time at Alan’s place!!! The pool was awesome and full of kids which my children loved. Walk out the door and in 2 minutes you’re in your chair on the beach. We collected so many whole seashells we lost count!! The king bed was extremely comfortable and my kids loved the bunks. Perfect location, awesome amenities, we would go back in a heartbeat!

1st family beach vacation
We came in with the mindset, ready to enjoy new experiences. We stayed on the 2nd floor and enjoyed making it our family "exercise" going up and down steps . The ocean front view was amazing… And the easy access to the clean pool was a must for our 4 yr old . We enjoy eating healthy, so the fully equipped kitchen made it easy. The washer and dryer made it easy to keep up on laundry so we had less when we returned home. Plenty of linens were provided for our stay. We enjoyed utilizing the beach chairs that were provided so we did not have to pack those. We love the more secluded feel of this location where is the beaches were not too crowded and it was tranquil and low-key enough in the morning to take a run on the road. Alan was quick to respond and also offered some good recommendations for dining. Would definitely recommend.

Small but absolutely lovely!
This property is just as listed! It felt cramped at times for our family of 5 (including two teens), but we made the most of it and enjoyed our time together! It is as pictured and as described, but every bit of space is well used. The ocean view is incredible (second floor is perfect for beautiful views and super easy beach access), and the pool was never very crowded and was a relaxing hangout area. Kids enjoyed the sport/game area out front. The beach disappeared during high tide but could still be walked and enjoyed. During low tide there was lots of beach to enjoy! We tried local restaurants for lunch and I cooked dinners in the condo kitchen, which was perfectly stocked with all the tools I needed. We used our streaming logins on the television, but I think local channels were an option, too. Thanks for the great family vacation!
