Your oceanfront escape on Topsail Island
Wake to panoramic Atlantic views from nearly every room at Island Time. Set approximately 2.6 miles north of the Surf City high-rise bridge, this five-bedroom, three-bathroom oceanfront home offers room for up to ten guests to settle into a slower coastal rhythm.
Start the morning on the multi-level deck overlooking the water, then take the staircase down to the beach. Two outdoor showers make it easy to rinse off after seaside walks, shell collecting, and afternoons in the sand.
Gather around a home-cooked meal in the fully stocked kitchen, or enjoy a quiet evening listening to the waves. Board games, a multi-game arcade system, and TVs in every bedroom give the family plenty of ways to unwind indoors.
The sleeping arrangement includes a king bed in the primary bedroom, queen beds in three bedrooms, and one set of bunk beds. Linens and bath towels are provided, and a washer and dryer help make longer stays comfortable.
Explore Surf City’s restaurants, shops, and pier before returning to your oceanfront retreat. This is a home for family time, beach days, and unhurried evenings together.

This was our first visit to Surf City. Everything was beautiful and peaceful. My family and I will be back and hope to book again.

Absolutely loved this house. Everything was perfect, the kitchen was well outfitted and had everything we needed to cook some wonderful seafood. Very clean and comfortable. The location was secluded but also right on the beach and close to town. We will be renting this home again.

This was our 4th time here. It fits our family well. The owner provides lots of extras. And it’s nice that the beds are all made and towels provided. We’d definitely recommend it.
