About the host
Hosted by Kathryn Burns
My husband and I are avid travelers, having stayed in short-term rentals from Hawaii, to Rome, it is our preferred way to travel! After so many years of traveling by STR, we have decided to host our own so others can feel the hospitality, comfort, and convenience that leads us to continue choosing short term rentals when we travel!
Why they chose this property
Surf City is such a 'hometown feel' sort of place!! Walk the surf city bridge for dinner and ice cream, stop by the park, go look for alligator's on the board walk, and enjoy the sunset before you head home!! This property allows you access to all the best Surf City has to offer, while still giving you peace and quite in the evenings! Rest assured, you'll have no neighbors pounding on your walls, or parties going until late in the evening!
What makes this property unique
I love this property so much for it's quite and peaceful feel. You truly feel like you're in a cottage near the ocean that you'd love to stay in forever! You will have the peacefulness of just your groups company, while not feeling like you're going to be intruded upon by noisy (or nosey!) neighbors.
