Old Salt North - 2 BR Duplex on 2nd Row

Built in the early days of Topsail Island's development, this classic beach cottage will have you dreaming of sea captains and ocean voyages. With its plank wood floors and gleaming pine cabinets and walls, this cozy two bedroom, 1 bath, north side of a duplex home is filled with unique works of art and seafaring décor throughout. With 2 convenient public beach accesses a short stroll away, and all of Surf City's best shopping and dining a short walk away, you'll never be bored.

The open living and dining space creates a warm oasis for relaxing and visiting with your family. And while the cottage may be all original, the kitchen has been updated with gorgeous granite counters and gleaming stainless appliances, sure to make mealtime a breeze. The star of the show is an extra-large, sunshine yellow, built-in hutch. Perfect to hold all of your vacation supplies and it even sports USB ports to charge your electronics.

Sweet Dreams:  Linens included for all reservations 7 nights or longer

Open the windows in either of the comfortably furnished bedrooms and be lulled to sleep by the surf from just across the street. Perhaps you'll dream of mermaids and the deep ocean blue, or just sleep soundly after a fun filled day at the beach.

Back Bedroom: Queen Bed
Middle Bedroom: Double & Twin Beds

Outdoor Spaces:

Enjoy time on the shared covered porch by the main entry on South Shore Drive. Get out of the sun and take it all in. Also, the backyard really makes this home a gem – you’ll find a semi-private sundeck with built in benches, and an enclosed hot/cold shower. Walk across the nicely landscaped and grassy backyard to enjoy the covered patio.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Overall unacceptable
Porch looked like someone spit chewing tobacco all over and some of the outdoor furniture was thrown off into the yard. Ottoman cushion was very stained with what looked like blood or feces and rug was full of sand. We cleaned up and stayed one night instead of 3. Reported that to Ward Realty via email and they just said sorry! I think I should get at least half if not all of my money back. Truly an experience I will not repeat. I'll stick to hotels. Never had a problem with hotels.

Sweet Cottage Convenient Location
My 9 year old daughter and I just loved this place. Beach entrance across the street. Walking distance to grocery store, shopping and restaurants. Short drive to purchase fresh seafood. The house was clean, comfortable and well appointed. Nice backyard with plenty of areas to hang wet towels and suits. Exactly as pictured. Things I wish I knew: The entrance to the beach is literally right there - but if you have littles or are elderly there is a flight of stairs up and down over the dune. There are other flat entrances further away. Dont be me trying to carry a wagon full of sand toys up the stairs LOL. This unit is a twin . While we were lucky enough to have Old Salt to ourselves for most of the week, when someone was next door you could hear every word. This wouldn't keep us from renting again but you may want to consider that for your stay.

Vintage beach cottage with modern upgrades
From the front porch breezes to the wood paneled den to the upgraded kitchen and bathroom plus the fabulous rear entertaining areas, the Old Salt has everything you need to relax at the ocean. The owner has a sense of style, and thoughtful touches abound. The den and bedroom furniture is comfortable and well-placed, the kitchen is extremely functional with new appliances and a good selection of cookware and the bathroom (while a little tight with the inclusion of a stack washer and dryer) is newly renovated and spotless. The back deck is spacious and perfect for late afternoon happy hour. Beach access is just across the street and includes a unique "tunnel" of shrubbery which keeps the sand cool. Handicap access is also just down the street with a ramp from the parking lot to the beach. If you're looking for a quiet, comfortable and unique beach cottage give Old Salt a try.
