Great location, excellent accommodations for our large family group. We loved the multiple gathering areas so the card players, puzzlers, and gamers all had a space. Would definitely come again.

Best Family Vacation!
We have vacationed at south Topsail so many times, but this was the best! The home is well appointed with several gathering places, inside and out. Beds were comfortable, and the kitchen had lots of good quality cookware. Thanks for sharing your lovely beach home with us! We will be back!

Our family had a great stay at Seahorse Corral. The house was clean and comfortable and helped to provide us one of the best experiences we have had in Topsail. Close walk to the beach and great view from the upper level.

Another amazing week at Seahorse Corral
This is our 3rd year staying at the Seahorse Corral and we love the house and the location. Great ocean views and the space is plentiful. The kitchen is large and fully stocked to handle cooking for a large amount of people. Making it even better is the fact that Scott and Roxane are fantastic hosts. There was an issue with a broken box spring that we were alerted to by the hosts and a new one was delivered and the old taken away. No inconvenience at all. We look forward to staying again next year and highly recommend this property to anyone thinking of renting - just not on the week that we want it!!

Absolutely Perfect!
We stayed at this amazing beach home for a family gathering. The location could not be more perfect! Very easy to get to and almost directly across the street from the beach access. We could tell when we walked into the house that the owners truly take a lot of pride in ownership of this home. It was very clean and just like the description and photos of the house. The kitchen is the best one we have ever had in the many homes we have rented on VRBO. All needed cookware, utensils, and appliances were there and clean. The bathrooms and bedrooms were very clean and all linens were clean and neatly organized on shelves in the laundry room. The sheets were even folded and packaged in sets wrapped with elastic bands that were labeled by what size bed they were for. The owners are very quick to reply if you have any questions during your stay. This was one of the best weekend getaways we have ever had and we will definitely be back.

If you like mellow and comfortable, this is your place.
This is one of my favorite houses in 50 years of beach stays.. Comfortable, well-appointed house in layout and furnishings. You’ll love the upper deck, especially in the evening. At quiet end of island. A 5-10 minute drive for some conveniences which leaves this house a peaceful retreat. Close to beach and ICW. Just don’t come on my week.

We didn't want to leave!
This was our first time together as a whole family in years. It was so much fun, so relaxing, and we absolutely loved being steps away from the beach. We spent most of our time hunting shark teeth and enjoying the waves, but we also enjoyed getting together at the end of the night to play games in this wonderful home. I highly recommend!

The BEST!
This is by far one of the cleanest, nicest and best beach houses we have ever stayed at. It’s so close to the public access, it’s like having an oceanfront house. The views are spectacular from the top deck and the house is perfect for our family needs.

Perfect in every way
This is the third time we’ve stayed here, and every time was perfect in every way. There were three families - 3 first cousins with their spouses and children - a total of 12 people. With 5 bedrooms, 1 with bunk beds for kids, everyone had a comfortable place to sleep. With 2 living spaces, one on each floor, multiple activities took place simultaneously. The kitchen is large and exceptionally well equipped. With a table that seats 8 and 4 seats at the counter, everyone could sit together for meals. It is located only 2 houses away from a handicapped accessible access to the beach. Being at the quiet end of the beach, we had very few people sharing the beach with us. It is a very wide beach, especially at low tide. The owners have always been excellent to work with, responding quickly to questions and making sure everything is in working order. We will definitely be renting from them again,

2nd Year at this Wonderful Beach House
This is our second year renting the Seahorse Corral and we love it! The house is perfect for a large group with two levels for different activities and the ocean views are fantastic. The area is right where our family likes to be at Topsail Beach as we have other family members with homes on the south end of the Island and it makes it easy to get together. Thanks for being such fantastic hosts and we look forward to staying again next year!

The house was perfect for our family of six. Everyone had their own bedroom with great places to gather both upstairs and downstairs. The porches on the back of the house are wonderful, and the walk to the beach was short and easy. Wonderful!

Great owner and excellent property
We had a great stay on Topsail Island at this property and the owners were very accommodating with us - we appreciated that sheets were included with the rental and the nice location. The owner proactively reached out with an issue as our stay was starting which we also appreciated. The location was steps away from the beach and we enjoyed the nice layout of the property. Thank you for a wonderful stay and for all the prompt responses to our questions! Hope to stay here again some day.

Great house to comfortable enjoy Topsail Beach
We stayed here with 4 adults, 2 toddlers and 1 infant. The check in process was smooth with clear communication. The house was very comfortable and well equipped with everything we needed to enjoy ourselves. The kitchen was beautiful and had all the equipment needed to cook for yourself for the week. Bedrooms were nice with comfortable beds and clean sheets. Two very comfortable seating areas allowed us to spread out. My favorite spots were the outdoor shower and the hammock chairs on top floor balcony. Easy access to the beach and town of Topsail. Would recommend to anyone.

Awesome beach getaway
This beach house was perfect for our family reunion of 10 people. We had more than enough space for 6 adults and 4 kids. The kitchen was well stocked (only missed a tea kettle and a few more dish towels) and the dining table fit us all. I loved the upstairs deck with the swing chairs and the proximity to the beach. We could send the kids back and forth from the beach to the house without having to escort them. I was apprehensive about the number of showers, but it was never a problem. Location was amazing, so close to the beach and an easy walk to town where there's shopping, restaurants and ice cream, live music, throwback roller skating and an awesome seafood to shack. You have to pay to park in Surf City so we didn't go much. Also be warned that restaurants have long waits in summer. Kayaking and the turtle center were highlights. Totally would recommend this house and Topsail Beach to anyone looking for a family vacation.

Awesome place
We were there for a funeral so the place was perfect for two families to share. Each level has its own living space so we weren’t crowded into one area when we wanted some personal space. Great seating for meals on the kitchen level. Great living for games puzzles etc. the only negative was there was a TV on each floor but the first floor TV is in the bunk bedroom. It would have been nice if it could be moved to the living space which may e it can we just didn’t try. Easy access to the beach and every time i reached out to the owners they replied immediately. The place was very modern and clean and plenty of dishes etc. great stay and we will definitely use the place again.
