The house was amazing and we loved the back porch with private beach access. The management company was very responsive and was able to remedy an issue very quickly. We will definitely stay here again!

We had a great stay at Good Tide-ings!
We had a great stay at Good Tide-ings! Lewis Realty provided us a lovely welcome package with items to get us started for our stay (paper towels, tp, soap, etc). All linens fit the beds properly and the home was lovely.

Absolutely wonderful family holiday for Thanksgiving! Best place we've stayed on the island for the last four trips, and will definitely be back. Minimal stairs for elderly, lovely outdoor enclosed shower and beautiful decorations. Highly recommend! We especially enjoyed the beautiful deck with family style table for our Thanksgiving shrimp boil dinner from Topsail Steamer.
