Our beach house offers a great entertaining area for family get togethers. This open and airy home has been renovated with all new white kitchen cabinets, gorgeous granite, stainless steel GE appliances, beautiful LVP flooring throughout and modern comfy furniture. On the back side of the house and facing the marsh and intercostal waterway, there are 2 spacious decks the full length of the house, to enjoy a cup of coffee or a cocktail and take in the stunning sunsets and beautiful marsh views.

Great house for a long weekend with family.

Beautiful views. Clean. Easy to get to the beach and other activities, but just far enough away from the bridge for it to be relaxing and quite.

Great getaway!

The house was exactly what was needed for our stay. We really enjoyed the marsh views from the house/deck and the 6 minute walk to the beach was doable. The proximity to restaurants and shops was perfect, just a short drive.

Perfect place!

Absolutely a perfect place for a beach vacation! Our favorite feature of the house was the view of the sound full of wildlife (and even better than the photos online). Here are a few other aspects of the home that we loved: well-stocked kitchen, comfortable furniture, prompt communication with owners, and proximity to the beach and sound. Also, for anyone who has allergies like me, this place did not trigger any symptoms. No offensive odors from cleaning products or detergents.

Perfect Vacation Spot

From the moment we walked in we knew we were going to have a wonderful time in this beautiful home & the view was stunning. The contact with the homeowner was on point. I cannot say enough about this home---it was clean; decorated beautifully; had everything we needed. We will be returning for sure. There are some that misrepresent...this was all that it stated & was pictured.

Beautiful home and location

This was our 2nd time staying at "All Marshes Up". We love the home, the stocked kitchen with option of a coffee maker or a Keurig. If rather make a pot for everyone so we can all enjoy our coffee together. The owners respond quickly as our last visit as well as this one, a later checkout was approved since our flight was later in the day. So sweet to be able to relax a little longer. We hope to stay again!

Exactly as expected and better!

This home is the perfect location for a quiet beach vacay. Only one block down the street is a private access, so not as many people as you may find closer to the pier, which was great. The third floor view is stunning! Kitchen had all the necessities. Perfect size for 4 adults/grown children. Loved the ability to rinse off the sand before coming inside. Will definitely be back!

Beach vacation with family

We loved our beach vacation to Surf City. The home was clean and had beautiful views and the owners were so accommodating. We enjoyed a relaxing time at the beach with beach chairs, umbrella, and towels provided by the owners. The kitchen was stocked with what we needed to make a few meals. The location was perfect and convenient for anything we needed. We will definitely stay here again if ever visiting this area again.

Beautiful Home on the Marsh

Great location, beautiful accommodations, just a short walk to the beach. We loved the pier out onto the marsh that we walked each evening after dinner. And a short bike ride to the grocery store for things we forgot. Teri was very easy to contact and always quick to respond. Thank you for hosting a much needed getaway for 6 working parents of kids that are out of school until who knows when...

The sunset views are wonderful. I appreciate the flexibility of the owners to accommodate a particular request. Lovely amenities were placed and the home was very clean. (I’m sort of a germaphobe, so that’s high praise). I would likely return to this property if I find myself back in Surf City.

Have vacationed in Surf City for the past 15 years. This was one of our favorite properties by far! Very clean and bright with amazing views, and beautifully decorated. Great location. Nice walk to and over the new bridge. IGA close by for items forgotten at the grocery store. And lots of cute gift shops and restaurants within a few minutes drive.

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
Teri & Cayne purchased All Marshed Up as their personal beach house, but decided to share their beach home with families like you. Teri, a southern girl from North Carolina and Cayne, from Long Island, NY married only 10 years ago are avid boaters. Salt air runs in their blood. Many weekends, you can find them cruising the waterway with the wind in their hair. Twenty years ago, Cayne took a chance and cashed in his retirement to began his own very successful landscape business. The couple recently sold the landscape business. Cayne, a USCG licensed Captain, now runs a boat charter business in Surf City, FantaSea Private Charters. Feel free to reach out to him to charter an amazing day on the water with Cayne as your captain. FantaSea Private Charters. www.fantaseaprivatechartersnc.com
Teri graduated UNCW with an Accounting degree and left corporate America to focus more time on their boat charter business, mosquito spraying business and their multiple rental properties. Since purchasing this beach house they lovingly call, All Marshed Up, Teri & Cayne have fallen in love with Surf City and now call it home.

Why they chose this property

Very few properties offers a full package like All Marshed Up. Best location in town. You are within walking distance of most everything Surf City has to offer. One block to the beach, a half mile to shopping, dining, ice cream and attractions and a rocking chair away from the best sunset views over the marsh and ICWW.

What makes this property unique

Fantastic Location. Beautiful Marsh Views and Sunset Views from the back deck. Modern decor. Linens included.
