Spring Break 2024

Wonderful! We had 4 adults and 3 kids, and this house fit us perfectly. Incredibly well equipped kitchen (we made Easter dinner with ham and turkey, and did not have to buy additional aluminum baking pans). Grilled out as well, grill is in great shape. Backyard is impeccable, and the pool was fantastic and clean. Plenty of towels, bathroom and pool. Everyone had a great time and we would definitely rent this home again!

Family Vacation

The majority of our time was spent in the backyard pool area. Pool was excellent! Landscaping was beautiful. Best backyard in the neighborhood, it was an oasis! Short walk to the beach. Bunk beds were spacious for all kids, of which there were many! Would recommend this property.

Vaca with family and friends

Two families, adults and kids, spent a week here with no issues. It is one of the best properties we’ve stayed at and I mean it. They provided beach chairs which saved us from hauling ours down and a couple games. The teenagers and adults had a blast playing basketball against one another. The pool and yard are absolutely beautiful. We enjoyed our time so much we asked to extend it but the property was booked. If you stay here you will have zero regrets. Pool, yard, basketball, open floor concept on the main floor and a quick walk to the beach. Only negative, and it’s not even the property, is our friends SUV started on fire while driving back to NY. There was nothing left to their SUV and they lost all their souvenirs.

A truly special place

As a family of five (three children under 11), this place was perfect. Arrival was easy, hosts accommodating, and the house and property in excellent condition. Every section of the house and backyard is set up well for entertainment and convenience: Plenty of smart TVs scattered around the house, basketball and foosball table, beautiful kitchen and eating area, comfy couches, front/back decks, pool, bar, fridges in convenient locations, outdoor shower, beach rinsing and storage station, cornhole, beach access...the list just keeps going. The backyard is really where this place shines - you feel like you're staying at a private resort. While the beach was super easy to get to from the house, our family spent majority of our time in the pool and backyard. Thank you to Jeff/Karen for helping us out and answering any questions promptly. You have a special place here in Surf City. Thank you! No question this will be our number one choice when we come back.

About the host

Hosted by Jeff & Karen Francis

My wife, Karen, & I have been married for 25 years. We have two daughters, Samantha and Hannah and two pups Briggs & Ollie. We have many fond memories of Topsail Island and Hope you do too.

Why they chose this property

We chose Carolina Tide in Surf City because it is close to all of the restaurants, shops, and 'things to do. The backyard is private with private beach access available only to the guests of Carolina Tide. Our Family has spent many summers vacationing in Surf City and always wanted a place of our own at the beach. Carolina Tide is close to everything yet still quiet, peaceful, and relaxing. Also, waking up each morning with stellar views of the sound while drinking a coffee is a plus!

What makes this property unique

We have rented many homes and we built this home which includes all of the amenities we have enjoyed throughout the years. We built the pool and cabana in the backyard which in our family is a must. The men in our family love to cook and serve while the kids are playing in the pool. The game room is a plus for the kids as well as they have their own space to play various games and when things get turned up the adults join in as well. If you want a quiet space; just walk down the path in the backyard and find a hammock under the shade of the native live oaks. Practice your cornhole or chipping skills in the synthetic lawn on the northeast corner of the property. This house truly has it all and of course the beach is just steps away.
