This generational family getaway offers the perfect retreat nestled right on the Intracoastal Waterway and just 200 steps from the beach. You and your loved ones will enjoy the best of both worlds with direct access to the sound or endless beach days. A sandy, sound-side beach is an inviting place for younger guests to play by the water, while adults can take a swim from the dock. A dock/pier and floating dock (shared between the other homes on the street) are available for boat moorage. Early risers can catch the sunrise on the beach, while the enclosed porch and sound-side deck are the perfect spot for afternoon lounging.

Two separate living areas inside the home provide plenty of room for the whole family to spread out. The eat-in full kitchen makes it easy to plan and prepare group meals which can be shared around the banquet-style dining table.

Bland's Landing is great for a family.

Room to spread out and hubby can escape the kids when needed. Children loved it and the walk to the beach is easy for everyone.

Soundside Living

Loved watching the sunset on the dock everyday. Easy walk to the beach. Just wish the deck and deck furniture had been a little more swept and clean.

Nice but needs some attention

We loved the location. The private beach area on the sound was fabulous. The upstairs was beautifully decorated. We loved the deck upstairs and downstairs. The downstairs could use some attention with cleaning and updating beds.

Great location

We like this house because it's on the sound so our grandchildren can play in the water. Neighbors are not renters and very friendly. This was our 8th consecutive year vacationing here but probably our last due to price increases. We will miss coming here and would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a quiet relaxing location.

Magical spot and welcoming home

We could not have been more pleased with our weekend at Bland's Landing! The location of the home is incredible; we spent the entire weekend on the porch overlooking the sound. Incredible sunsets, beautiful birds, and more! Beyond the location, the home itself is so welcoming. It felt like an old family friend. You can almost hear the laughter and love that has been shared in this home over the years. We were honored to share our own love and laughter here. Thank you for letting us stay!

Felt like staying with a friend

This house had a ton of character and personal touches that really made it feel like you were staying with good friends. Great for kids to play on the sound side and fish off the dock, and a quick walk across the street to a quiet section of the beach. Having the two kitchens and some quiet places to tuck the kids away was fantastic, not to mention all the games and kids toys and safety features for children. Downside was the upstairs, which is the main floor, remained pretty hot during the day and night. Instructions said we should keep it no lower than 73, but it kept remotely getting reset to 75. The rental company was difficult to get in touch with. We were hoping to have another couple and their 3-year-old join us, but they said absolutely we could not exceed 11 people, even though the house has 6 bedrooms and a bed on the porch. We originally planned on bringing one dog, but she is old and we were considering leaving her home. Upon asking the rental company if we could possibly receive a refund for the pet fee, they said “it’s not our fault you selected pet on your search.” I also messaged to ask if the house had any beach toys/chairs, to which their response was “it’s not mentioned in the listing.” Turns out the house had a ton of those things. They also had misinformation about checkout. Text message said to leave the sheets on the bed, email said to strip the beds. The house and location was great! Rental company could be a little better.

Beautiful location, should have camped

The advertisements listed on vacasa we're probably from 10 years ago the property is gorgeous the house is in serious need of updates and repairs most of all the air conditioning was inadequate and partially functioning the amenities are not as advertised there is no cable, it was all streaming, furniture covered with cushion covers-all upholstery filthy and worn. Rugs filthy and worn out. There were several taped with duct tape. Local vacasa team ghosted me when I made reports about the air conditioning not working throughout the stay. The lower level kitchen smelled of rotting fish, extension cords throughout the lower level there were no ceiling fans except for one. The windows were so dirty you couldn't see out. Curtains were dirty and stiff the ceiling fans were covered in dust. The ceilings had peeling plaster and things falling from the skylights. Decks and porches in poor repair, covered in rotting leaves. When we arrived at the property the outside porch smelled of putrid rotting meat we discovered three fly traps completely filled with maggots and had to dispose of them. Spent a full day cleaning surfaces and wiping down counters. Ant traps all over the kitchen. Was traveling with my elderly mother and Aunt- the heat and humidity caused my aunt to leave early. The neighbors were delightful and friendly. The environment was gorgeous. The beach area on the intercoastal made this one of the most unique places I have ever stayed on Topsail Island. The house is a gem but the local team is doing the owner a grave injustice by not properly addressing the obvious issues.
