Comfortable place about two doors down and across the street from the beach. 5 miles from the big restaurants around and right down the street from the tiki bar and market. Place was perfect for my needs and easy to get in with good communication from the host. Beach was small at high tide but all the people around were nice and family friendly.

Happy as a Clam at High Water

We had a great time at Little Orphan Annie on North Topsail Beach. What a relaxing place! The deck was our favorite place to hangout when off the beach. The view and sounds of the ocean were just what we'd hoped for. Beach access was quite convenient and made trips back for drinks and snacks quick and easy. The North end of the island is very peaceful. We would definitely stay here again.

The house was perfect for our beach vacation. The owner was super responsive to all of my questions. I loved not having to worry about house keys and being so close to the beach. The outside shower was convenient for keeping sand out of the house. Thank you!

Great stay….cozy little beach house.

Location was awesome! Didn’t mind the short walk to the beach. House was exactly as pictured. Comfy beds, had everything we needed. If we had one complaint, it would be that there’s not full cable TV. But definitely not a deal breaker for us. We would stay at ‘lil orphan Annie’s again.
