OCEANVIEW - WALK TO TOWN TO AVOID THE TRAFFIC, HOT TUB & HEATED POOL
This property has it all. Highest reviews, new 6-person hot tub, large private heated pool with slide and the perfect location that is very walkable to downtown Surf City! This large beach home is perfect for 2 families with great sleeping options for 11 people and 3 full bathrooms + an outside private shower and 2 water heaters. It is one of the premium vacation properties on the island. It is located approximately 0.5 miles south of the Surf City high-rise bridge on upscale “South Shore Drive” which puts you within walking distance to lots of restaurants, bars, groceries, shops, Surf City Pier and more! South Shore Drive is a 25 mph, oceanfront beach road that is only local traffic. It is the perfect place for an exercise run, bike ride or family walk. You can literally put your keys away for the week. We strive to make the house appealing to families with amenities like beach chairs, ping-pong table, gas grill, highchair, baby gate, pack & play and a second overflow refrigerator in the downstairs storage area. This ocean view 2nd row home has two beach accesses just a short walk across the street, literally 100 feet away. After you spend a day at the beach you can enjoy the large private backyard heated swimming pool that includes a slide for hours of enjoyment for the kids while you relax in the hot tub. The back yard is perfect for our guests to relax, sunbathe, listen to music, enjoy your favorite beverage, read, or enjoy an afternoon nap or have a family cookout with the outdoor grill. The pool is very large for the island with 10k gallons and measures 16' x 32' in length with a large slide. It is heated in the cooler months for free (mid-March - October 31st). The pool is closed Nov 1st through Mar 1st.
The house consists of 2 main floors. The lower main living area contains the kitchen, ½ bath, laundry, dining room, master suite and bath. The kitchen has granite counter tops and is well stocked so you can prepare anything from a large breakfast to spaghetti dinners or burgers on the outside grill. The large dining room table comfortably accommodates 8 guests plus 4 bar stools at the peninsula bar. In the evenings when the sun sets and you are ready to wind down, sink into the large sectional and settle in for relaxation watching the large TV with soundbar. There is also a large front porch that has as a nice outdoor upholstered furniture which is the perfect place to enjoy a morning coffee or happy hour drink. On the second floor the kids have their own space to enjoy their favorite shows, DVDs or games in the upstairs entertainment room. Additionally, upstairs we have 3 bedrooms with 2 king beds and a charming custom built bunk room that contains 3 twin-XL beds & a queen bed. Separating the bedrooms are 2 full bathrooms with double sink vanities. Another full-length covered deck is along the front of the house where you can sit in rocking chairs and have magnificent views of the ocean and pier.
In today’s fast-paced lifestyle, there is no room for second best and for the “cross your fingers” strategy to selecting a vacation destination. We have put a lot of thought into the house and amenities to ensure you have a great vacation!

FEES: Regarding the number of fees renters are required to pay on VRBO. We understand how the quantity of fees add up quickly on a vacation rental but most of them are out of our control.

The cleaning fee includes maintaining the yard, house & pool which are actually higher than what we are charging our guests.

Overall a great home for a big family. The location is wonderful. The house has a few items that need some maintenance but the owner was wonderful in communicating that they were being worked on.
Great Thanksgiving stay in Surf City. The home is well located with ocean views and an easy walk to town. The neighborhood was quiet and relaxing over the holiday.The house was clean, well maintained, and comfortably set up for our group. While the heated pool was closed for the season, the hot tub was available and a nice bonus in cooler weather.Communication with the host was smooth and everything was as described. We would happily stay here again and recommend it to others.
Amazing home for our family vacation felt like home. Close to beach, town beautiful pool and hot tub. Definitely an house we would go back to. Erik is a wonderful host always answered any questions we had.
We had the best time vacationing here. The place was super comfortable with all the kitchen supplies we needed as a multigenerational family of 7! The place felt super clean and beds and furniture were comfortable! The kids loved the water slide and even in cooler late October the heated pool was great! Would definitely stay here again!
This was our first visit to Surf City and this property had everything we needed for a relaxing vacation. The ocean was still pretty cold, so we spent a lot of our time in the beautiful pool and hot tub. Very close and easy to get to the beach. The home was extremely clean, organized and comfy. My whole family enjoyed our stay and we hope to visit again next year!
We had such a great stay in this home. The house was beautiful with modern everything and included everything we needed. It was very clean on our arrival as well and located in a perfect spot with easy beach access. The host made everything easy and kept in touch with us throughout the stay to ensure we had what we needed. We will definitely look to stay here again when we’re back in Surf City.
We all had a great time during our stay. The pool was a highlight with the cooperation of getting it heated. We enjoyed the beach chairs provided, along with the bicycles.
Thank you for a wonderful time.
We were returning customers this year and intend to return again next year!! Kids love the place. Great access to the beach, with pool and jacuzzi!! The house is very clean and well maintained.
Our second time staying here! Awesome house…great patio/pool/hot tub…perfect location that is steps from the beach and walkable to restaurants. Owners are helpful and friendly. Highly recommend!
House was beautiful. A lot of attention to details. Loved the close proximity to town and beach.
Gorgeous pool & hot tub area that was beautifully
landscaped.. Loved it so so much we booked it for next year.
My family was looking for the perfect getaway. Coming from the hospitality industry as a Hotel owner, we can be picky. Eric’s house was beyond perfect. Extremely well maintained. Spotless. And Eric was a gem to work with. We are already planning for next year.
This was our 4th summer staying at this property, which speaks for itself. Great setup with the pool and proximity to beach. House has everything you can possibly think of for a great week at the beach. No detail missed. Ready to come back next summer!
If you are looking for home away from home, great location, full ocean sounds and view and 1 minute easy walk to beach and fabulous pool with water slide, this is it and more! Very well supplied, very comfortable beds. Owner is easy to contact and seems to genuinely care that you enjoy your stay. We will return for round 3 next summer!
The location was perfect. The home owners are awesome. Their home is set up perfectly with absolutely everything you possibly could need. Clean and just absolutely perfect.
This is our third year staying at this wonderful property. The owners maintain this house so well. The proximity to the beach is great with 3 young kids. The outdoor space is our favorite part; including a pool, waterslide, hot tub and outdoor shower. The house is clean and well stocked. We have already booked our trip for next summer!
The house was immaculate, very well maintained, and exactly as described! We had 6 adults, a 2 year old and 3 babies under 8 months, and it worked perfectly. The owners were very responsive and attentive to all details. Beautiful home and beach! Thanks for a great trip!
Our family trip to Topsail would not be complete if unable to stay here. This was our 4th time and I could not be more complimentary. Eric is so easy to communicate with and the property is always in top condition. Having a pool is such a delight and our kids (and grown ups!) love the slide. There is plenty of room for us all and location is unbeatable. We are already looking forward to next year!
This was our 3rd year renting this house and it was just as special as alwsys. Spotless, well equipped and so comfortable. The walk to the beach was about 1 minute. The pool was fabulous and the owner is very responsove to any questions or concerns. Love it!!! equipped and the locatiin, spwctacular
From the minute we arrived we all noticed the amount of thought that went into setting up this home for families to rent. A fully stocked kitchen made family dinners easy. The washing stations and outdoor shower helped to keep the house free from sand. The pool and hot tub was a plus after a beach day. The outdoor porches were not only comfortable but each one offered a different view. The location was perfect for a short walk or bike ride to town. Eric stayed in contact throughout our visit making sure we didn’t need anything. Overall experience was exceptional. Definitely would recommend to family and friends who are looking for a perfect relaxing vacation.
The house and location was as advertised. If you want the beach then it is a minute walk. If you want a pool then it is right in the back yard. Plenty of little shops and bars within a 10 minute walk.the family enjoyed the pool mostly but we did a half day trip to Wilmington. 40 minutes away. There was also plenty of grocery options 10 minutes away, so we made use of the grill.
GREAT HOUSE!!! My family - 5 adults and one toddler had a wonderful vacation staying at this house for a week! It is exactly as described. The house is in a great location, clean, quiet neighborhood, beds were very comfortable and the air conditioner worked great, even on the second floor. Pool was fun for everyone and there are coffee shops, ice-cream parlors and a local market nearby and all within walking distance. Publix, Food Lion and Walmart are all about a five minute drive. Tons of seashells for the littles to collect. We watched the sunrise, which was spectacular! The check in/check out process was easy and although we did not need anything during our stay, Eric touched base just in case. We look forward to booking this property again!!
We had a great stay at this beautiful beach home, just a short walk across the street and you're on the beach, short walk up the street and you're in sweet Surf City town. The property was extremely clean and organized. The kitchen was better equipped than my home kitchen. The owner has provided everything we could possibly need, from bikes to beach chairs. Eric the owner was very easy to deal with and answered back quickly. I will definitely try to book again for a longer stay. 10 out of 10
Our experience was way beyond expectations. Our house was beautiful and well maintained. The pool and grounds were immaculate. Our host, Mr. & Mrs. Youngblood was so accommodating. They met and exceeded all of our needs and responded immediately on any questions we ask.
The booklet he furnishes has every detail you should need while staying there. They, also, have recommendations for local restaurants.
I wouldn’t hesitate to stay at their property again.
I would classify it as a 5-plus experience.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! This is a beautiful property and very well maintained and stocked for those of us that enjoy cooking. This place is a gem! We were able to grill and cook inside, the supplies are best. The pool was AMAZING! The slide is game changer so fun for grown people the proximity to the beach is perfect!! The ocean views from upper deck are beautiful.
We had a wonderful time.
The group consisted of two of my brothers, one of their spouses, my husband and myself. really were pleased with seeing our American flag when we arrived.
Thank you
And God Bless America
