Simply wonderful

It was almost like being at home - except for the ocean. The owners have anticipated needs and filled those needs. Everything is very easy from confirmation thru checkout, the beautiful beach was an incredibly short walk away and the ocean views from the decks are so relaxing! Great neighborhood! Beds were comfortable with nice linens, furniture allowed room for everyone and incredible game nights at the large dining table!

Amazing!!

I don’t think I’ve ever stayed in a vacation rental as clean as this one was!! There were no pet odors or stains. We all loved it and the beach access was so close. The house was stocked with everything we needed. We really want to rent this house again, but with 3 senior citizens in our group, the stairs were a bit difficult for them. We will definitely check out other rentals from this host.

Beautiful beach stay

Loved waking up every morning to drink our coffee outside on the deck. Beautiful, clean house. The house was set up so nicely. The kitchen was stocked with everything you could need. And the location to the beach was less than a minute walk! The stay was well beyond our expectations. Will be coming back again.

Beautiful beach house with every amenity

We had a great long-weekend stay in Rachel’s home. It was clean and welcoming, and she’s thought of everything! The kitchen is well stocked, there are plenty of towels and beach towels, hooks in the exact spots you need them, and great deck furniture. She’s also an extremely responsive host. We highly recommend this home!

Great Stay

We really enjoyed this home. The layout was perfect for our family, and the home provided everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Although the home is not on the beach we were pleasantly surprised by how much of an ocean view the home still offers, and it is an easy and quick little walk to the public beach access. The beds were slightly firmer than we are used to but we adjusted to them after a couple of days. We will definitely stay at this property again.

Location perfect!

House was clean and very nice lightly decorated beach theme. We really appreciated the provided linens towels and other supplies to get our vacation started. Bedroom and bath Layout was perfect for our group. Walk to beach was easy and short. Easy bike ride to down town. We have stayed in many homes at surf city over the years. Most beach front. The location of this home was the next best thing to beach front. We liked everything about this house!

Excellent Vacation Home

One of the best vacation homes I’ve ever rented. Everything was as described or better, the house was well stocked with kitchen equipment, overall the house was well appointed and the furniture was comfortable and in good condition. There was a ton of beach equipment there even though we didn’t get to use it that often. Hurricane Debby made for one of the worst weather vacations we’ve had, but we made the best of it! This house was the perfect size for our group of 9 + 2 dogs. There was enough room in the house to provide seating at the dinning room table, around the living room and outside on the porches. Even though it’s not directly on the beach (we typically rent oceanfront) we had a nice view of the water and the walk is very easy and convenient. We will most definitely consider renting this vacation home again!

Comfy and well appointed home!

My husband and I wanted to spend a month in Surf City—far from our Midwestern winter—close to the beach and near our son’s house. This house is only a block away from a public beach entrance in a friendly, quiet neighborhood. We fell in love with the floor plan, and the master bedroom is right off the kitchen. All other bedrooms are below in the second floor. Our 1-year-old Sheltie loved all the stairs! The owner and manager were wonderful. Very responsive to our questions and even let us check out late on our checkout date, since they didn’t have anyone checking in right away.

Wonderful Beach Home!

We had a wonderful stay with extended family. We even survived all of the stairs ...maybe helped burn calories that we also enjoyed!! We wanted for nothing and were very comfortable in this well-outfitted home. The views and walk to beach were great! Would love to see additional seating on the top-level porch where we spent most of our time in the evenings. The gas grill (kept inside for safekeeping) was great to have! We never did see the mentioned fire pit, that would have been a welcome addition. This is a lovely beach home that we look forward to renting again in the future.
