Honestly one of the best family rentals in our experience. Very clean, lots of light, fresh decor, spacious decks, etc. views of the sea and the sound. The upstairs kitchen/living area is very pleasant and comfortable. Grandkids absolutely loved the bunk room, playground across the street, 90 second walk to the beach. We enjoyed using the beach chairs and sand toys too.
The house was great. It had everything we needed. The views were amazing and the location was perfect. It was our first time visiting Surf City and we will definitely be back.
Thank you so much for allowing us to stay in this beautiful place. The home was everything it said and more. A great place for multiple reasons. Big enough for our family and a great overall week together.
Our family including kids and grandparents really enjoyed our stay here. The house is right across the street from a park and with no other houses in between that and the ocean, there are some great views. Loved the outdoor spaces, including the decks and the backyard with the fire pit.
It was really helpful to have things like a pack and play, booster seat, and baby gates already there so we didn’t have to take up space in our vehicle to bring all that stuff. Kitchen was well equipped, place was clean.
Main living area is on the top floor, which was nice because you always have those great views. Just keep in mind you have to walk up the stairs to get to it.
House is in close proximity to the Trailer Bar, which is nice if you want to pop over for a couple drinks. Just keep in mind that they have live music in the evenings that you can hear from the house.
Great, great, would absolutely book again, and highly recommend it!
