Lovely beach house in a great location with everything we needed for a family gathering. The two covered decks with the comfortable rocking chairs were a hit as were all the en-suite bathrooms! The elevator was very helpful in getting groceries and luggage up to the top floor, especially for the 70 year olds in the group. Would definitely return here.

The Perfect Interruption

This property was the perfect setting for a multi-generation vacation. The hosts were timely with responses and even provided a fun shell connection activity with previous and future renters. It’s hard to find a spot where a multiple families with a wide span of ages can have and and relax. The faculties were clean and well care for. With the quick access to the beach and the main strip, it was our perfect spot.

Lauer Family Reunion

The house was beautiful and nicely decorated and very clean. We loved our family time and really enjoyed the house location, the easy access to the beach, pier, and shell collecting. Overall a great experience and we all want to come back to enjoy this well cared for house that felt like home away from home! Thank you for keeping it well maintained.

Great view of the ocean and very good location!!!

We really enjoyed our stay at this house. It was very clean upon arrival and the location is fantastic. The views were wonderful from the top floor with the beach just a very short ways away!!! Location is also fantastic in Surf City with many places to eat, visit, etc. nearby. Our family really enjoyed our stay and the owners were wonderful to work with.

Amazing house!

This is a beautiful and well kept property that is perfect for a group of adults. Everyone has their own bathroom and there’s one room that’s great for a family with kids. The house is well laid out and comfortable and the covered porch is amazing or sitting out and looking at the ocean when it gets too hot to sit on the beach. Really enjoyed our stay!
