Dream Getaway a Gorgeous Private Oceanfront with Hot Tub Sleeps 12

Welcome to The Dream Getaway.

If the dates you are looking for are booked please see our new house - The Charm Getaway - Property ID 1938974- Opened May 2020

Welcome to our oceanfront/beachfront home located at 1834A S Shore Dr, Surf City, NC 28445.

This newest edition is a three story single family oceanfront private escape. The views are SPECTACULAR. We offer 3 levels of private oceanfront decking, two outdoor showers and an oceanfront outdoor entertaining area with a charcoal grill and also includes a new 6.75’ x 6.75’ Nordic Hot Tub that seats 7.

Our location is IDEAL in Surf City on Topsail Island. We are on a quiet stretch of the beach surrounded by other homes but are still only 2 miles south of the pier and all of the shops and restaurants.

We have installed new LVP flooring ( No CARPET in this HOME) and purchased new smart TVs - one for every bedroom and one in the living room.

The home interior has been freshly painted and has new decor, new linens, new mattresses, new furniture, new sheets and towels and completely refreshed amenities.
The oceanfront balcony offers captains chairs so you can see over the railings for unobstructed ocean views.

The driveway can accommodate at least 5 cars.

We provide 10 brand new beach chairs, a beach umbrella and beach toys.
We offer laundry detergent, a fully stocked kitchen including spices and pantry items, keurig and K-cups,hand soap, hair dryer in every bathroom / shampoo/conditioner, body wash and toilet paper and paper towels to get you started.

We will consider your 4 legged family members on a case by case basis and a $100 refundable pet fee. Please tell us about your pup. We will consider up to 2 dogs and kindly ask that no dogs be allowed in or on any of the beds. We are sorry but we do not allow cats.

Sleeping Accommodations:
Master Oceanfront Bedroom with ensuite bathroom - King Bed
Bedroom #2 - Queen bed
Bedroom #3 - Twin over Full bunk with Twin Trundle
Bedroom #4 - UPSTAIRS with kitchen/living room - King Bed

Two comfortable portable beds with memory mattresses are available to sleep two extra people. We have determined these are much more comfortable and more flexible than a sleeper sofa as they can be used in any room in the home - even outside for the adventurous type.

We do not offer discounts of any kind. We offer an extremely high level of service, flexibility and a ton of amenities not found in most beach rentals.
If you have a specific request, we will do what we can to accommodate you.

Relaxing and perfect

Everything from the start was just perfect. The property owner was very gracious and pleasant in her communications with us, and the housekeeper texted us her name and numton the day of arrival in case we needed anything. The house was clean, well stocked and equipped with anything you would need, and the view from the upstairs living room and kitchen is spectacular. The private beach access was a very short walk, and the beach was never even remotely crowded. We were happy they this is a dog friendly property. Our little dogs loved the house and the d cl and the beach. It made it a wonderful time for us to relax and be together.Topsail Steamer is a must do if you love seafood. We did it twice in three nights!We hope to be able to stay in this same house the next time we want a quiet beach vacation!

The best family house!

I was worried about bringing two toddlers and a golden retriever to a rental, but this house was just the best as it had everything we could think of and loved being literal steps from the beach! I really appreciated the little things that were provided in the home (baby gates, plastic cups/plates etc.) that made it feel like my babies were truly welcomed! The views from the kitchen and living room and the third floor deck were the highlight of our stay! Communication with Katrina and Christine really elevate the whole experience. I can't recommend this house enough!

Perfect Getaway

We’ve been to the Topsail area a few times, but this place was by far the best one we’ve been on our travels! Well-stocked with everything you could need for the beach and the kitchen, and Christine and our host were so attentive to our needs during our stay. Would come back to this place in a heartbeat!

Best House on Topsail!

This house is absolutely lovely. It is extremely clean, well-stocked, and in the perfect location. You can walk right out onto the beach and grab tons of beach chairs and toys along the way.

About the host

Hosted by Katrina Noonan

Host profile image
Our DREAM was to own oceanfront property! We are so pleased to be able to share the DREAM with you!

In September of 2018 my husband and I celebrated our 20th Anniversary with a long weekend getaway to Surf City. We have 2 dogs and one had just completed his last rounds of chemo treatments so we were only willing to go somewhere that we could take our dogs with us. We had not been on vacation in 6 years because of our dogs special needs.
After spending 4 days on the beach we decided we needed a beach house. Both my husband and dog were at home and relaxed at the beach. 2 Months later we purchased Dream Getaway.

Why they chose this property

Why Surf City NC when we live in Maryland?
Surf City is the beach of my childhood. I spent my summers visiting my family in Hampstead NC (10 minutes away) and my days were spent playing on the beach under the pier with my siblings and cousins.
My Great Grandfather ran shrimp and oyster boats in the sound for a living. If you visit our home you will notice the oyster shells and pictures around the house. These all remind me of why we own this home.

We love this SPACIOUS single family oceanfront home! This part of the beach is so peaceful and the views are out of this world. The oceanfront hot tub is truly a dream come true!

What makes this property unique

We provided linens, towels, beach chairs and a fully stocked kitchen and pantry.
In addition to our home which is enough we also provide the ability to provide additional services via our Hospitality Manager, who is a text message away.
