Loved it!
This is such a cute place to stay with your small family. We enjoyed it and was the perfect size for me, my husband and our 4 kids. The property manager is super nice and helpful. The house was amazingly clean and the cleaning crew they have does a superb job. Definitely would recommend this house if you’re looking for a small affordable place to stay.

Unsatisfied
Pictures of house were very misleading, there is only one bedroom, the other “bedroom” is in the kitchen, and only separated by a shower curtain. Outside shower didn’t work properly. Location of house is surrounded by properties under construction, so if you don’t want to listen to construction all week I wouldn’t rent. Also inside shower is unfinished with paint chipping and mold like spots with a rusty shower caddy to hold your shower items. Outside kitchen area was dirty, and outside fridge was full of old and rotten food, and milk. Air conditioning only covers living room area, no other rooms in the house. Pull out couch bed does not work like a pull out couch. The price of this house is not worth the size or accommodations. Pictures very misleading, rate 2/10.

Great Vacation
We just got back on Saturday from a week stay at the Surf Shack. We had a wonderful vacation and the Surf Shack was a great place to stay. The owner responded quickly to any questions we had and the neighbors on both sides were very friendly and offered great recommendations on restaurants. We enjoyed the porch and it was a great place for our dog to hang out since it was fenced in. We will definitely rent the Surf Shack again!!

Owner very responsive for this cute little cottage!
The cottage was super cute & clean upon arrival. We did have 4 adults that somehow worked within the living quarters but it’s definitely tight. We enjoyed the beach and the outdoor shower. Neighbors were all friendly and helpful with offering places to eat, things to do, etc.Very family oriented place to stay with maximum security. Owner was responsive at all times & helped a lot.

Surf Shack Fun
We loved staying at the surf shack. Added another day last last minute and Sam took care of it seamlessly. This is a camper with two built on rooms. The only thing I would suggest is putting another air conditioned unit to cool the camper side of this rental. Great fun, great stay. We would stay again. Very clean when we arrived. Loved being pet friendly so we could bring both of our dogs.

About the host

Hosted by Sam Johnston

Host profile image
Our family are vacation enthusiasts! We work to play. Year ago we decided to prioritize our leisure time, either traveling by RV, hanging out with friends at the lake, or enjoying the outdoors. We fell in love with the Ocean Lakes area and decided we needed a more permanent home there, but wanted to share our little oasis with others.

Why they chose this property

The Surf Shack is our personal getaway, not just an anonymous revenue stream. This is where we stay when we vacation.This means we take pride in the condition of the home and the items inside it. We want others to be able to experience our families joy at Ocean Lakes the same way we do. We have felt that Ocean Lakes was "home" for us for many years when we came in our RV and hope other can feel the same way.
