Nice pet friendly home very close to beach access. Would stay again and would recommend. The only thing we weren't aware of was that the dunes are high and there are steep stairs to get onto the beach.

The inside of this small cottage was very nice, although the TV was somewhat problematic .The real problem was the front porch which was filthy, broken screens, also in DESPERATE NEED OF PAINTING!!!! and I have thrown out better chairs than the chairs on that porch. The back yard was not nice at all and STUNK of cat pee.

Beautiful beach cottage

We absolutely adored this beach cottage. It was perfect for our family of four. The house was located on a quite street and had an easy walk to the public access. The house came with all the amenities we needed to enjoy our stay at Surf City. We would definitely stay here again.
