About this house rental
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 bicycles, 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 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!

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.

This spacious home was well stocked with everything we needed. The pool with the slide was a HUGE hit with our whole family! Our almost two year old granddaughter loved playing on the “platform step” in the pool.
There were retractable safety gates on the living room level going up and down the stairs, keeping our little ones safe. An upstairs closet had two additional safety gates so we could also block the stairs on the second floor going down. The safety gate and door alarm leading to the pool was added security for anyone with small children.
The beach cart allowed us to easily transport all of our gear in one trip across the street to the nearby ocean access. There was plenty of parking space on the property. The multiple decks on both sides of the house offered great views.
The home is nicely located within walking distance to many shops and restaurants. There was easy and quick communication with the owners.
The house is perfect for families not traveling with dogs.

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.

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!

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.

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!

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!

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 time going to NC and we loved it. It was fall break for our 5 year old, so we planned a family trip. It was my husband, myself, our son, my dad, my brother and his girlfriend. Everything was wonderful! The beds and couch were very comfortable! The kitchen has everything you need...I even brought stuff to do some baking, per my brothers request, and there were pmenty of kitchen supplies to get it done. They had both a keurig and a coffee pot, so plenty of options for caffeination. The pool, slide and hot tub were amazing. We ran into a couple issues where the pump/heater weren't working when we went to get in, but Eric was so responsive and got the issue resolved immediately. It was great having the garage to store our beach stuff and the hoses to rinse everything off after. Not having to worry about a key/card for the main door was so convenient also. The only thing I could have asked for was to stay longer because it was just wonderful to be on vacation at such an immaculate house, a beautiful beach and with everything you could need just a walk or 10 min drive away. Also, get your legs in shape for stairs...there are lots of stairs, especially if you aren't sleeping on the main level.

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

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

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!
5.0
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.

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!

This was our second time staying at this property and it was just as nice as we remembered it back in ‘21. The house is so well maintained and very accommodating to any needs you may have. The pool is gorgeous and well kept and the hot tub was an amazing addition. The little touches like menus and notes left with recommendations really show the care put into having an enjoyable stay. We hope to be back soon!

This is the third time we have stayed here and have already booked our week for next year. No better location or accommodations in the heart of Surf City. The private pool area is a favorite family gathering spot and the slide is always a hit! The house is so well furnished and love we don’t have to travel with all the necessary infant/toddler accessories or beach gear. Communication is top notch and such a well thought out layout. Always something updated!

Excellent house for us: grandparents and family of 7! Bunk room great for the kids. Upstairs tv room used by the kids a lot. Location is excellent, just across the street from beach and near restaurants and stores. Appreciated the wagon and folding chairs. Kitchen well- stocked. House well maintained and beds oh, so comfortable!!
The hit was the pool with a slide and the jacuzzi! They were used twice daily by everyone after going to the beach! Liked it so much we booked it again for 2024!!

Our family had a wonderful week staying at this home! We have always used the big name management companies to rent from in the past and have always been very, very disappointed. This home is hands down the cleanest, most well maintained and cared for beach home we have ever stayed in. We would absolutely rent this home again!

The owners of this rental were very communicative before and throughout the stay. We are very thankful and thoroughly enjoyed our stay at their property.

This property is exactly as described and pictured in its listing. We thoroughly enjoyed our 6 night stay and would return again in a heartbeat! The home was very clean and comfortable, and you can tell the homeowners put a lot of thought into making sure the amenities supplied at the home make it easy for vacationers. It was so convenient to be a very short walk to beach access and restaurants. When we weren’t at the beach, we definitely enjoyed the multiple decks, pool and hot tub. The owners were quick to respond to us with the few things we needed during our stay. We would 100% recommend this beautiful property to anyone considering staying in Surf City. You won’t be disappointed!
5.0
Eric and Jenny put a lot of thought into the safety as well as the comfort of their guests. We really appreciated how well the pool was secured and all the baby equipment that was provided. The kitchen was very well equipped, loved putting together a crockpot meal before going to the beach the day! So many thoughtful touches throughout the home, from great restaurants, local activities, helpful reminders about the garbage and recycling pickup days down to hangers in the closet! Of course I have to say the pool with the slide was probably the best amenity!!! I don’t know who enjoyed it more , the 4 1/2 year old or the adults. The 18 month old had a wonderful time playing on the top step in the pool. Overall one of the best vacations we’ve had. My only disappointment is that we won’t be able to come back in 2023 because my grandson will start kindergarten in August.
5.0
There’s nothing bad I can say about this property or our stay. It was beautiful, clean, and as amazing as the pictures look. The beach was a 1 min walk and it was beautiful as well. Thank you to the owners and thank you for our amazing time. My family is beyond thankful.
