Great house especially with a dog

Awesome spot. Quieter area of Topsail that we love. Great house for a family with a dog. Everything was clean and comfortable. Fenced back yard for pooch. Loved our long off leash walks on beach with access about 50 yards away. Keypad is on the back door. Kinda confused by that at first until my son figured it out. Thanks!
