Jul 28, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Dolphin Watch Beach House The weather, while a bit warm for our weekly visit, was excellent. The Top Sail beach location for this property--also excellent--was just the right size for our family of four adults and a dog. The kitchen had all the cooking tools needed for eat-in dining. We especially liked the screened-in deck overlooking the beach, as well as the portion of the deck in front of the screened-in area. Sea turtles nested in the dune very near this property and we were able to watch several young sea turtles make their way to the water's edge. We hope they survive! The property owner was a joy to work with and was very accommodating. This property is a prime on-the-beach location on the southern end of the Surf City beach area. We are seriously considering renting this very property for next year's family vacation! ##### Marvin R. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carlyn E.

The screen porch was perfect for the kids to eat lunch outside at the picnic table and read in the swing and rocking chairs in the afternoons. The kitchen had everything we could’ve needed. Everything was clean and tidy. Great location. Quiet part of the beach, mostly other families. We loved being able to just walk down and be right on the beach to swim or fly a kite. Thank you for allowing us to stay. We would definitely book here again if we return to topsail beach. ##### Carlyn E. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amanda L.

My husband, our four kids, my mom, and our two dogs just spent an entire week at Greg’s place. We had the most fantastic time right from the start. The best part about the whole place is the amazing screened in porch that allowed us to be outside at all hours of the day, regardless of the weather, with a full view of the ocean. Everything was very clean, the beds were very comfortable, and there was plenty of room for all of us to spread out. We already can’t wait to return next summer. Thank you for allowing us to use your beautiful home. ##### Amanda L. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Melissa & Dave S.

After dealing with two weddings in 5 months for our daughters plus several medical issues with our aging parents, we just needed time away to unplug, relax, and recharge. Dolphin's Watch was the perfect place to do that! It had everything we needed for entertainment, cooking, sunbathing, and unwinding. Our favorite aspects of this gem were the cleanliness of the accommodations overall, the responsiveness of the owner, the screened in porch with rocking chairs, the quiet location, and the large windows across the front that gave us a beautiful view of the ocean all day long. A bonus for us was the fact that it's turtle nesting season and we were able to witness this first hand nearby! We only left the cottage twice in 7 days to pick up additional provisions. We were sad to see our week come to an end but it gave us exactly what we needed! We plan to be repeat visitors at Dolphin's Watch because it felt exactly like home to us! Thanks Greg for sharing your little slice of heaven with us! ##### Melissa & Dave S.

The home is exactly what we look for in a cottage on the beach. Comfortable, clean, and inviting in an old school way. Is it opulent? Nope. But it feels like your home away from home. Topsail charm without the prentenciousness. It truly has all you'll need in the kitchen to boil up some shrimp and grill some fresh snapper. As a big bonus in August, the AC ran perfect. My teenage daughters loved the hot water capacity too! The owner has stocked a homemade spice Cajun rub that is excellent! ##### Peter D. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### susan s. Jul 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect beach home!! Wow! This is one of the first times I've rented a beach house and found not a single thing I would change. It was perfect in every way. As soon as you walk in the front door you're hit by the amazing views. The kitchen is well-equipped including dishwasher and garbage disposal. The living room is comfortable and accomodating. The beds are all comfortable. One of the very best features of the home is the screened in porch overlooking the ocean. An outdoor shower and hose are conveniently placed so you can rinse off after every trip to the beach. We set up our pop-up right outside the back door. If you need to go back to the house for anything it's just steps away. We spent days boogie boarding, beach-combing, relaxing; nights ghost crab hunting and watching the fireworks! Just perfect. Thank you so much for providing this wonderful home! ##### susan s. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kimberly M.

You will have to travel if you are wanting to see sights other than the Ocean... Well stocked kitchen.. we did a lot of cooking.. crab hunting at night is fun so make sure you bring a flash light and they are very fast.. Owner was very nice if we had problems he was a phone call away. big help.. the pictures are exactly what it is and what you are getting..We went golfing that was an hour away.. went on a boat tour that was an hour away.. The crab pot was good and batt's was good and nice price dinners.. The house could have been a little cleaner but it was still a good time with my family... If you want the view then this is the place to stay get a cup of coffee or a nice cold beer just sit back and watch the waves and DOLPHINS yes we seen a couple of them during our stay... Cant wait for next year i will be calling to get this place again.. we loved our stay.. Thanks ##### amber d. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jeff & Donna A.

The screened in porch with swing and the deck off of the porch were perfect. Plenty of seating. Excellent beach access. Close to everything. Will be back! ##### Jeff & Donna A.

We’ve rented many beach places over the years. The location of Dolphin Watch is the best of them all. A few steps down off the deck and you are on the beach…it was very nice! ##### Shawn D.

The house was just right size on a beach that wasn't overcrowded. The weather was perfect during our trip. Two small thunderstorms in the evening after beach time was over. Great place to stay. Will definitely be looking to book a return trip 😁 ##### Jennifer O. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lynn W. Jul 5, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### perfect This is the perfect beach cottage. It has an excellent view of the beach with immediate access off the front deck, has a wonderful screened in porch (and deck), clean, well equipped kitchen, hall bathroom was particular good as it was a large size and had excellent water pressure. I have nothing bad to say. Book this cottage!! ##### Lynn W. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jon C.

Water was great all week! Dogs loved being able to join us on vacation too. We loved having dinner on the porch table with the ocean breeze! Thanks for helping us make some great beach memories. ##### Jon C. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jenna H.

This year it was just my kids, husband, and my parents, and we felt very at home. Greg's house was the perfect size, and had all of the things we needed to keep us comfortable. We LOvE the screened in porch and the ability to hang things inside it like swimsuits. The best part though, was how close the property is to the beach. As I said before we stayed at several houses and a lot of them have a very long walk to the beach even on the deck and stairs down to the beach... My parents are aging now and it's difficult for them to walk too much up and down a lot of stairs that are steep this was so perfect. Thank you again for having us! ##### Jenna H.
