Description Description

If this is the “Ruff Life” then who needs the Good Life? When you take your family, including your four-legged friend, on a much needed vacation to the beach, you'll find everything you need in this joyful 4 bedroom gem with a great sunroom. This home features an open floor plan, two queen bedrooms and two twin beds as pass throughs for additional guests.

Enjoy dinner, drinks and the beautiful blue Atlantic view seated at the high top table in the front enclosed sunroom, or relax with the cook around the butcher block kitchen island. The open floor plan makes socializing a breeze in this 1 story bright, retro styled classic beach cottage whimsically decorated with lively paintings of furry and feathered friends and pops of color.

Your beach access is located directly across the street! Since this house is located on a corner lot, not only will you have loads of parking, you’ll have extra space for Fido to play fetch. When you have had enough sun and sand, come on back and enjoy a hot outdoor shower and hose off your pooch and all those toys.

 

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

Two queen size rooms are located at the back of the home for peaceful slumber. Each room includes an additional pass thru space with a twin bed tucked inside for additional guests - what an innovative use of space! The shared bathroom may just be one of the cutest ones you will see on the island - with rolling barn doors and sea glass colored tile.

  • North Back Bedroom - Queen Bed with walk thru to North Middle Bedroom with Twin Bed

We LOVED dealing with Ward Realty and we LOVED Ruff Life!!!!! We didn't ever want to leave!!!!! The microwave seemed a little old and we would have loved a table on the deck, but overall we loved it all!!!!! We would stay again in a heartbeat and never leave! Ward Realty made it super easy to book, pay and stay - so convenient and super easy! We loved the keyless entry!!! Thank you so, so much!! We can't wait to come back and have referred several friends and family!!!

The home was nicer than what I expected and clean. It was wonderful for my family and furry pets that accompanied us on our family vacation.

This property and whole experience surpassed my expectations! From the communication/ reservations to the ease of checkout... including the dog treats and collars! I have stayed at Topsail before at a friend of a friends place that is not professionally managed. There are no amenities at all at that place, not even a square of toilet paper! Imagine my surprise to find not only toilet paper but dish soap, shower mats, etc! The kitchen was incredibly well appointed w plenty of pots, pans, silverware, plates and cups. The downstairs washer and drier room had beach toys, extra patio furniture, a gas grill (we didn't use it, sadly!) a beach umbrella and lots of beach chairs! Ruff Life has taken advantage of their space is a most efficient manner- it was absolutely perfect for my family! The location across from the beach was expected but being on the corner was awesome. That enclosed porch really adds another living space. It was a great week- thank you!
