Front decks offer tall Adirondack chairs and a café bistro set for sunrise coffee and all-day ocean views. The top rear deck offers reclining loungers on the top deck, and the second rear deck off the primary bedroom offers a bar-height bistro table that overlooks the Intracoastal Waterway for wildlife watching and sunset cocktails. Walk out the front door and take 100 steps to the beach. This beach has a no-stair beach access, which is rare in North Topsail. Kitchen includes a coffee maker (ground & K-cup), toaster oven, 4-burner stove, microwave, dishwasher, full cookware, and open shelving for a week’s groceries—everything you need for family meals after a beach day. When you're not at the beach, enjoy hanging out at the house with a 65" smart TV, games and puzzles, and a 2,500-game full-sized arcade game, with everything from Golden Tee, Pac-Man™, Street Fighter™ & more. If you played it in the 70's, 80's, 90's, 2000's it's probably part of this console. Propane outdoor grill, beach buggy, corn hole, beach chairs and more on the property. Covered parking for two vehicles in the carport, and more space for an additional vehicle (or two) in front. Private outdoor shower with hot and cold water. This three-story home is stair access only. ## Property amenities ### Beach - On the beach ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Car recommended - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Dishwasher - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 3 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Jetted bathtub - Shower ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - Games - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - Up to 23 kg per pet ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - Near the bay - Near the marina - Near the sea - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Motor boating nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - Recycling - Unit size: 1,647 square feet ## Similar properties ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/36000000/35790000/35785500/35785441/5736eca6.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Oceanfront Paradise - Private Beach Access, Outdoor Showers & Covered Decks Surf City - Ocean view - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer 9.6 Exceptional 97 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-16&endDate=2026-02-17&selected=35785441&PinnedHotelID=35785441&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![On the beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/112000000/111920000/111911900/111911841/68cf4f26.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 3802 Island Drive- Charming, Oceanfront, 3 bedroom house with amazing view- Adjoining Side is Ava...

They even had beach chairs and a cart if you need them. The hosts were responsive and checked in with us during the week to see if we needed anything. I have been vacationing on the island for the past 20 years and this was by far one of the best experiences! ##### bryan k. Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carlyle D. 20 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy This is a great place just a quick walk across the main road to the beach. The place had a great view of the back-marshes, and also a view from the front of the ocean. There were balconies on both floors, front and back. All utilities worked great, and any issues were resolved quickly. The host did a great job responding to our needs. There was enough space on the first floor for bedrooms, and enough space upstairs in the common area. ##### Carlyle D. Stayed 8 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nick W. 4 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy The home is in a great spot with close to beach access and views of the ocean across the road, along with the Intracoastal at the back. Inside the home was laid out great for two adults and seven teens, who had a blast and felt very cozy. Plenty of space to do your own thing inside with several decks on the home to access for views. The Internet worked well with all the kids and TVs going. The kitchen worked well for us, with appliances, extra beach items, and the owners' supply. We had two small dogs, and the fee was fair compared to others, and the yard made it pleasant to walk them. Carpet is throughout the home, but it is comfortable and clean. Home is decorated nicely, and all the furniture is clean. Check-in and out were simple, and the owners are very good with communication and support. Hope to stay here again! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3a676ea5-ebd5-49de-9d7c-1c2edcf52201-1757000933244.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Nick W.
