Amazing stay. Close to everything. Beautiful views of the sound. Loved having bikes at our disposal. House had everything we needed. Owners are wonderful communicators. We look forward to coming back again!
Surf City is a very laid back place with not much to do in terms of activities but the beach is peaceful, beautiful and clean. The house we have been is clean, well maintained with all the amenities needed to get the feel of home. It has beautiful views from the deck towards the swamps. The hosts were very courteous and helpful. Overall our trip was very peaceful and quiet time to catch up with family.
Fantastic location and a comfortable/clean stay. A short walk to the beach and beautiful views from the deck. Everything we needed for our family vacation in Surf City. Would stay again!
Lovely home, great location, has everything to make your stay memorable…fully stocked kitchen-we like to cook, kayaks, bikes and beach cart was a lifesaver! A great place to reconnect with my adult children!
We enjoyed our trip so much to this beautiful property! It was so nice to be close to both the beach and the intercoastal. We kept busy with fishing, kite flying, brewery visits, something for everyone. The sunsets from the decks were just gorgeous. The owners were very friendly and helpful.The house was so clean and fresh! We will definitely be coming back!
We had such a great stay. The hosts were so accommodating and made everything so easy from start to finish. The sunsets from the back deck were so beautiful and it’s just a short walk to the beach. Great location close to restaurants, coffee, ice cream, etc. as well. Highly recommend!!
Amazing!!! Will be recommending Lorsons Landing to everyone I know!
I have been coming to Topsail since my childhood and this is my favorite place that I have stayed! Extremely clean, beautiful scenery, short walk to the beach, and very friendly/responsive hosts. We had so much fun kayaking and relaxing in the hot tub as well. We actually ended up getting engaged on the dock that is used to launch the kayaks! Best vacation ever, looking forward to returning next summer!
We stayed here recently with family. Everything was great. The back porch overlooked the marsh and had stunning sunsets every evening. We met a few neighbors who were very friendly and made us feel welcomed. The hosts were also very friendly, responsive and accommodating. We would stay here again.
Missy and Joe were amazing hosts — the property was perfect for a long weekend with friends. Clean and tidy, had beach chairs etc for us to use as needed, and both were super responsive when we reached out with small questions. Would highly recommend and hope to stay there again someday!
Home was clean and very nicely decorated. Location was excellent, close to everything including the beach. View from the back porches was beautiful especially at sunset. Would definitely stay here again!
We met my sister’s family at the beach. We loved that the house was on the intercostal side but still only a few blocks from the beach. It was so peaceful sitting on the decks for coffee in the morning and watching the sunsets in the evening. The kitchen was fully stocked for us to cook our own meals. We used the kayaks to explore the area behind the homes. The hot tub was perfect!
Loved this beautiful home! The hot tub and the amazing sunset views from the deck were definitely perks! Thanks for sharing your home with us! Would definitely stay here again!
This house is absolutely the perfect place to stay for a relaxing beach vacation. Gorgeous house, decorated beautifully, amazing views of the sound from three balconies. The house is stocked with everything you need (including all the things you usually have to provide for yourself—spices, dishwasher pods, etc.). The Lorsons are warm, helpful, and responsive to any need you may have. We absolutely loved our stay at “Lorson Landing” and will be back in the future!
The home was just as described, very clean and comfortable. The owners were nice enough to leave an air mattress for us to use while we were there. The kitchen had everything we needed. It may be hard to cross the busy road to walk to the beach for a family with small children but for our crew it wasn’t too bad, even on the holiday weekend. We enjoyed the deck and the view. Very nice place!
My partner and I had a wonderful stay here. The home is so light and airy and beautifully appointed. The views of the Sound are stunning and worthy of a look anytime of day. Proximity to the beach is great, and the location is in a really convenient part of Surf City. Don’t pass on this one!

About the host
Hosted by Joe and Malissa Lorson
Hello, We are Joe and Malissa Lorson. We are the owners and the managers of this property. We live nearby in Jacksonville, NC and we are available to assist immediately should anything come up during your stay. We bought this beautiful beach property in Spring of 2015. Together we have 6 six children & 4 wonderful grandbabies. We love our jobs but just as much we love relaxing at the beach and enjoying the company of each other and our family. We want to give you and your family the same experiences we've had here on Topsail Island.
Why they chose this property
You will fall in love with the serenity of the water views from all rooms in this beautiful home. You will especially enjoy the peacefulness of being directly on the waterway. We have a 6 person hot-tub to soothe your muscles and your mind. When you're done in the hot-tub, take a stroll down the lighted pier and relax on the small dock. You can fish, crab, watch the wildlife or enjoy a glass of wine. We've seen more species of birds from this dock than we ever dreamed imaginable.
What makes this property unique
There is something very special about this home that is hard to put into words. We searched the island for a property knowing exactly what we were looking for. As soon as we walked in, we both knew this was it! We haven't met anyone who didn't feel exactly the same after staying here. We like to treat our guests like family and your comfort is our primary concern. We love to travel and we have incorporated the very best parts of our travels into your vacation stay. You will find all the luxuries of home, a complete and furnished kitchen with all the upgrades. We know that you have many options when choosing a place to stay for your vacation but we are always thankful and honored when you choose ours. We look forward to hearing from you!
