A typical day for us includes morning coffee on the ocean side deck watching the shrimp boats just off shore dragging their nets, birds flocking behind feeding on the left over shrimp and fish. The dolphins trailing behind and the pelicans are floating in formation along the shore.

After a walk on the beach looking for shells and sharks teeth, we decide to set up our beach chairs and umbrella for a day of sun bathing and swimming in the surf. We take a break to play some beach games, volleyball and fly a kite.

After a fun filled beach day and as the sun begins to set on the sound side, a beautiful view is afforded from the three decks on the street side. After dinner is prepared in the kitchen which has a view of both the ocean and the sound, the dining room which seats 8 at a square table has a wonderful view of the setting sun across the sound, the breakfast/dining area has ocean view dining seating 6 at a rectangle table where you can enjoy the ocean breeze. Having this dining area located off of the living area provides the gamers in the family a great place to play games, put together puzzles!

The kitchen also has bar seating for three on bar stools where the family can join in on the preparation of dinner.

Come, enjoy and make your own memories at Topsail Island and Larry’s Lazy Susan. You will LOVE the 'LAZY SUSAN EXPERIENCE'

About Larry Martin

I am a self employed architect in Virginia, which has been very beneficial with our great beach house since we have renovated and added additional rooms recently in 2011. Susan and I have six children that were all young when we purchased the house. The house was perfect for our family but now that our family has grown, we expanded and renovated to provide more room..

Larry Martin purchased this house in 1994
Why Larry Martin chose North Topsail Beach

We vacationed at North Topsail Beach for two years prior to purchasing and rented our house the summer before we purchased. We love the secluded beach only a few steps from our deck. A great place to bring the family for a relaxing LAZY vacation. We love to swim, surf fish, boat and jet ski, fly kites, play in the surf, hunt for shells and sharks teeth of which we have thousands. The house is on a less traveled street off of the main road, but very easily accessible.

What makes this house unique

We are able to view nature at its finest, watching the dolphins play in the ocean, pelicans and gulls flying in formation, watching loggerhead turtles laying their eggs and watching them hatch at our steps to the beach(which we have done). Views that are spectacular from all rooms, multiple ocean and sound side decks and the CLOSENESS of the house to the ocean. The ELEVATOR which is extremely helpful for the elderly and moving in luggage. The separate under counter 50# ICE MAKER is a must for plenty of ice for drinks and coolers.

I've looked at so many houses up and down the coast of NC. I've rented more than my share. However, "Larry's Lazy Susan" has been the best by far! First, it is super duper clean... I mean CLEAN! That is always the first and most important thing. The beds are comfortable. It is nicely decorated. The elevator makes access a breeze for everybody. The kitchen has everything you could possibly need. (I still miss the ice maker.) The location is perfect...very quiet. The water comes right up to the steps during high tide. Not your typical rental. Owners are great to work with...very nice people.

I have a restaurant recommendation >>>> Go to Cheri's! It's clean and the food is so fresh! Service is great....Food is great!

Owner's Response: Melissa, what a great review, I believe you said it all. We do try to keep our house clean, which to us is one of the most important amenities. The other ones, elevator, ice maker, wireless internet, televisions, well equipped kitchen, dining areas with wonderful views and the beach which is extremely close provides we hope a great vacation experience (Larry's Lazy Susan Experience). We like Cheri's as well, very good food as are many other restaurants in the area. Please do return to enjoy Topsail Beach, Thanks, Larry

Enjoyed our week at Larry's Lazy Susan. We had a mixed bag of weather, sunny
and wind, rain and wind, and unseasonably cool some days, but we had fun!
The house is in a great location for shopping or dining in either Surf City or
Sneads Ferry. Pizza from Long Island Pizza-great, shrimp from Sears Landing
-good and we found dining at Batson's Gallery had the freshest seafood of all.
The house had a well stocked kitchen and a dining table with a view. The
furniture very comfy, especially the recliner where I sat and enjoyed reading
novels provided by the owner. I am in a wheelchair and depend on it for
complete mobility and found this house to be very manageable. My wheel-
chair is 24" wide and this size worked well in the house. The owner has added
a small ramp from the den onto the deck and this was very appreciated.
The deck is so close to the ocean it was almost like being on the beach which
was great for this amputee. The elevator is well maintained and another great
benefit. We are retired and travel a good bit and this has been one of our
favorite places to stay.
Owner's Response: Judy, Topsail Beach does have alot to offer, great fresh seafood, restaurants, shopping and a wonderful quiet beach. The kitchen and dining area has great views of the ocean and the sound. Glad the house worked well for you and the wheelchair, we have tried to make the house as accessible as possible and appreciate your feedback on accessibility. The elevator is wheelchair accessible and with the beach deck accessible provides the opportunity to enjoy the sights, smell and sounds of the beach and ocean. Our deck is very close to the beach, about as close as you can get. We are happy that you enjoyed our house, please come again, Larry

While the weather did not cooperate, we thoroughly enjoyed the proximity of Larry's Lazy Susan to the ocean. The view from the house is spectacular. The layout of the main level is perfect for everyone to move around freely. We enjoyed playing cards and using the lazy Susan to move the deck around. Much of the home has been updated, and the master bedrooms (both upstairs and down) were particularly nice. Larry was easy to work with, and we appreciate him opening his lovely property up to us.

Owner's Response: Stephanie, we appreciate your review, I wish we could control the weather. We have updated our home to provide our guests with most of the comforts of home. Our views of the ocean and sound are probably as good as you get. The house is very open which does contribute to the great views and is very close to the beach. We try to be responsive to our guests and provide information that can make their stay as enjoyable as possible. Please come again, Larry

This house and location was perfect! Just what my entire family needed! The home is very well maintain and everything is just as described, so no need to simply repeat all that. Larry and his wife's personal touch is what really sets this home apart. His recommendations were excellent, from the fresh food at Surf City Crab to how to look for shark teeth at the beach. He made us feel at right at home. We hope to be back next year!
Owner's Response: Luis, Susan and I are glad you had a wonderful time. We are always glad to help with out guests in any way we can for them to have a great vacation. There are alot of good seafood seafood restaurants and fresh seafood outlets. We always prepare fresh seafood at the house and enjoy this immensely. There are tons of fossilized sharks teeth on the beach, just knowing how to find them is the trick, glad we could help. Please do come back next year, we do appreciate you taking care of our house just as your own, thanks for the review, Larry

Perfect Beach Vacation!!

5 of 5
Submitted: March 17, 2013 Stayed: March 2013
Larry's Lazy Susan is a modern, but cozy vacation home on gorgeous Topsail Island. The kitchen and living areas share a panoramic view of the beach. The deck out back (literally steps from the ocean) was a perfect place to have an early cup of coffee, and watch the sunrise. The grocery store, and several delicious restaurants are just minutes away. My chocolate lab was a welcome guest as well! It was definitely worth it, and we can't wait to go back!!
Owner's Response: Erin D, Topsail Island is a great beach with a lot of things to do. Our house is located on a residential street away from the main road which also puts it very close to the beach with in a few steps. Glad you liked the views, our virtual panoramic photo tour on the website provides a good idea of what to expect when you arrive. We do welcome pets and hope their owners and pets have a special time on the beach together. "Cozy" is a good word to describe our home, that's just what we like to hear, Thanks for the review and please return again, Larry

This was our first annual sister's beach weekend and we really enjoyed staying at this property! It was comfortable, had everything we needed, and we loved the convenience of the elevator! The deck could use new chairs, but other than that we loved our stay! Larry was very easy to work with and called to check-in with us to see if we were comfortable and had any questions.

Owner's Response: Erin, we are very glad you and your sisters had a wonderful time and you had all you needed. I do try to call to check on our guest's after arrival to make sure everything is acceptable. The house is comfortable and the elevator is very convenient especially with luggage. I will look at adding some deck chairs in addition to the two picnic tables. With the wind blowing off of the ocean, deck furniture is difficult to maintain. I appreciate the feedback, please do come back, Thanks, Larry

February trip to paridise

5 of 5
Submitted: February 14, 2013 Stayed: February 2013
This was a perfect vacation home for me and my 7 friends! We all had so much space to move around and plenty of privacy. The house is well taken care of and makes you feel like you are in a very luxurious home. Careful of the spiral staircase, 5 out of the 7 of us all bumped our heads, 1 left a mark though... (Would not recommend for young children for this reason)

Perfect to go during the off season, as we had the entire beach to ourselves! My male aussi-shepard took it upon himself to ensure all birds were cleared from "his" section of the beach... I enjoyed this, of course, more than you can possibly imagine!

And The elevator was remarkably quite!

The only negative thing I have at all to say is that the shower head in the master bathroom (downstairs) was a little bent out of shape but that's a fairly inexpensive thing to fix (hopefully) and all the other bathrooms were great!

Had an amazing stay and would definitely love to return during the summer or fall months
Owner's Response: Teresa, glad you had a wonderful time, the beach this time of year is very secluded which one would expect, but even in the summer there are less people than most beaches. We try to keep the house in excellent condition for our guest's and we do have a lot of room with great views. The spiral stair is loved by the children but can be a head bumper if not careful. No one has had any serious damage that I know. We some times position a chair underneath to prevent head bumps. Everyone seems to love the elevator and is very quiet. We will fix the shower head which is a minor repair. Thanks for the review and please do come back again, Larry

Christmas Get-A-Way

5 of 5
Submitted: January 2, 2013 Stayed: December 2012
This oceanfront home was everything you would want it to be. Pet-friendly and handicapped accessible were two things we had to have. My husband and I were searching for a beachfront cottage to visit with my daughter, son-in-law and two grandchildren in Sneads Ferry during the Christmas holidays. It was a perfect get-a-way but felt like home with all the accessories. The ocean was literally at our front door during high tides and the morning and evening sunrises and sunsets were spectacular! One day during the week we had tornado warnings and saw a storm develop over the ocean! For nature lovers, it was a sight to see. The elevator saved many a step for loading and unloading and for our 2 disabled sons. We will definitely be back one day soon!
Owner's Response: Rhonda, we are pleased you had a great Christmas at our house. What a great place to enjoy the holidays. The ocean can be very close to the steps at high tide but plenty of beach at low tide. The views are spectacular especially when there is a a storm over the ocean. The elevator provides accessibility to all floors which is extremely helpful. We have had alot of guests that really appreciate this feature and a few in wheelchairs as well. The house is equipped with all that is needed especially the kitchen. Please do come back again and thanks for the kind review, Larry

Everything was as good or better than described. The location of the house is perfect. It's such a quiet street with very little traffic at all, yet it is close to everything you need. The house is beautifully furnished and very spacious. The only problem we had was "Hurricane Sandy" which skirted up the coast while we were there. But even with that, we caught fish and saw dophlins several times. I don't want to recommend the house until we get our vacation booked in for next year, and we can't do that until my son and daughter lock in their vacations for next year. But I would highly recommend the house to everyone. It is perfect!!! and we had a great time even with the bad weather for part of the week.

Owner's Response: Marcie, glad you found everything about the house as you expected. The location is great being off the main road, which provides for a more private beach experience and less traffic. We try to provide all the amenities that one would expect at the beach including beach chairs, umbrellas, etc. The house is large enough for a large family or several smaller families. Sorry you had to deal with Sandy but glad it was not too bad. Fishing and watching the dolphins are great pastimes to enjoy in our backyard. Please do come again, we are booking up fast for 2013, so let me know when you are interested. We are pre-booking now for 2013, thanks for the review, Larry

Wish I Was Still There

Submitted: November 11, 2012 Stayed: November 2012
My family stayed at Larry's Lazy Susan last year and again this year. We always find the property clean and very welcoming. Larry was always helpful in answering my questions and concerns. I would highly recommend this property to any of my family and friends. We love being on the oceanfront and sitting on the deck and enjoying the view. My husband, father and brother enjoyed surf fishing even though they didn't catch very many. My mother and aunt enjoyed resting and doing absolutely nothing. The elevator was very helpful since we had my handicap brother and some older people with us this year. The beach is very quiet and peaceful which is just what we needed. Another asset is that we were able to take our dog with us this year. For all of you pet owners you know our animals are a big part of our family so this was especially nice. We enjoyed quiet walks. It is a perfect place to vacation and oh how I wish I was still there.

Owner's Response: Sabrina, it is great to have repeat tenants, we have several. We know we are doing it right when have so many return guests. It is extremely important to us to provide a clean and well furnished home. I am more than happy to talk with my guests and try to answer an questions that may arise. The ocean front decks are very close to the beach and provide great views of the wonderful sights and sounds. We feel that allowing dogs at the house is great for pet owners providing them the opportunity to enjoy the beach with their extended family. We have three Yorkies that enjoy the beach with our family. We have had so many comments on the elevator providing some of our disabled guests with that extra access. We will be awaiting your booking request for next year, please come again and thanks for the review, Larry
