We loved our stay in Surf City! Great views of the bayside inlet with awesome sunsets. It’s a nice, quiet enclave off the main drag, but still only a few minutes walk to the beach. Great backyard if you have a dog! Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Thank you Billy for being such an amazing host! We were grateful for the option to check in early so we could have time to unpack and enjoy the area. The house is a great location, walkable to the beach, quiet and peaceful area. House was more than enough for us; 2 couples, and one small dog. House was clean and ready for us to stay! There are alot of stairs, so be prepared for that! Our little dog Charlie had a great time as well, fenced in back yard was perfect for him! We would definitely stay here again!
