Recent Surf City vacation rental reviews

This house is right on the beach with plenty of parking for your family in the driveway which is hard to come by for beach front properties. It is located in the heart of surf city just minutes drive from the pier and restaurants! Our family had a great time.
Michelle T. | Nov 2024
We enjoyed this home. Our vacation was great and the location was excellent. Right down a few steps to the surf and right up the road to the pier (less than a minute). It was a fisherman’s dream! We caught whiting and a few spot. Really enjoyed our time there. Possibly add a place to clean fish. ?? But the pier is close and always available to clean them there. The home provided everything we needed. Thank u for allowing us to stay.

Great communication. Very clean. Like most beach places could use some minor updating. Had the whole entire complex to myself so it was of course quiet. Off season I imagine.
