Explore the Best of Topsail with Surf City Rentals

Stock Image

Welcome to Surf City, the vibrant commercial hub of Topsail Island. Whether you are planning a large family reunion, a fishing trip with friends, or a quiet couple's getaway, Access Realty offers a diverse portfolio of properties to match your needs.

From the bustling activity near the Surf City Pier to the quiet, stunning sunsets of the Soundside, our inventory covers the best locations on the island. We are a family-owned, locally managed company dedicated to helping you experience the authentic charm of the North Carolina coast.

The "Book Direct" Difference: Why Choose Access Realty?

When you search for a rental on large travel sites, you often pay significant service fees that do not go towards your actual stay.

  • Save Money: Booking directly on this website guarantees you get the best possible rate with no third-party "guest service" fees.
  • Local Support: We are not a call center in another state. Our office is located right here on NC Highway 50. If you need assistance with your rental or a recommendation for the best seafood dinner, real people are standing by to help.
  • Verified Quality: We manage and maintain every property listed here. You can trust that the photos accurately reflect your rental.

Choose Your Scenery: Oceanfront vs. Soundside

Oceanfront Living

Soundside Serenity

For those who want the Atlantic Ocean as their backyard, our oceanfront rentals are the premier choice. Wake up to the sunrise over the water, enjoy private walkways to the sand, and let the sound of the waves put you to sleep. These homes are perfect for families who want to maximize their beach time without any commute.

The Soundside (Intercoastal Waterway) is Surf City's hidden treasure. Soundfront and Canal properties offer calmer waters perfect for kayaking, paddleboarding, and fishing. These homes often feature private docks and offer some of the most spectacular sunset views on the East Coast. If you plan to bring a boat, this is the ideal location.


Pet-Friendly & Large Group Stays

No family member should be left behind. We offer a wide selection of Pet-Friendly Rentals so your dog can enjoy the beach just as much as you do.

Planning a multi-generational trip? We also specialize in large homes (5+ bedrooms) equipped with elevators and private pools, ensuring comfort and accessibility for grandparents and toddlers alike.
