Amazing Stay

We had an amazing stay! The beach house was clean, wellstocked, and in a perfect location. Our teens loved being able to walk to the pier, grab ice cream, and visit nearby eateries without needing a ride. They walked to Soundside Park for fishing and kayaking and loved the independence of walking everywhere. The private beach access that was steps away was incredibly convenient, and we appreciated the included beach chairs and toys. When it rained, the arcade games and board games kept both the kids and adults entertained for some great family time. Highly recommend it and we can’t wait to come back!

Awesome Beach house!

We had a great stay at the property, which was across the street from the beach with easy private access. The house was clean and comfortable with beds, towels and accommodations you would need. Communication with the owner was easy and responsive for questions we had. We would definitely stay again

Great location and stay

We needed to find a property last minute and thankfully this home was available. The location was perfect with access to the beach directly across the street and all of the shops and restaurants of Surf City just minutes away. Even with the great location, the street / neighborhood was very quiet. We loved our evenings on the deck listening to the ocean waves.

Family/Friends vacation

Taking a family vacation with a few friends and this home was perfect for us! Having bedrooms on 3 separate levels made it quite nice if anyone needed privacy and the home was lovely! The beach access was just across the street and beach accessories were provided by the home owner. The amenities were also superb and I didn’t need to bring additional items for the week. I can’t say enough good things about this home and would stay there again!

Great week at the beach

We loved our stay, despite some lousy weather. Being so close to the beach meant we could sneak down whenever the sun peaked out. Only (very) minor issue was a bit of a chemical smell in the entry floor. The smell did not affect any main floor. Great communication from owner and no logistical issues at all!

First Surf City Adventure

This is a nice rental. The location one row from the ocean is great. And the proximity to town (1/2 mile) is perfect. Sunrise from the front deck and even nicer on the beach, and sunsets from the back deck. The owner is very easy to work with and was quickly responsive to a couple “questions” we had. Thank you James for the use of your home.

Great trip

This was the perfect house for A busy family to reconnect! Very well appointed, we didn't want for anything the whole week. Any issues we had were addressed immediately and our host couldn't have been any better! The only thing that could have made this house any better would be if it was oceanfront and if I had brought a knee brace..... all those steps were rough by the end of the week! Overall, wonderful home and wonderful stay!

Great Location

The home fit our needs and allowed enough privacy between 3 different families with common spaces to come together. Appreciated the proximity to the beach. There a few things that were minor annoyances. The laundry wasn't working and a repair person couldn't come until 4 days into our stay. This coupled with only 2 dishtowels made doing dishes and keeping the kitchen clean a challenge. We would have appreciated a bit more toilet paper, paper towels, and regular towels in the home. Private access to the beach was a breeze and the location relative to the bridge made getting off island less painful than most.

More Surf City memories

We frequent Surf City & Topsail each year & this year we stayed at Jim's place as our normal house wasn't available: - The location is perfect for the downtown area of Surf City, either by bike/walking but it wasn't too close that you heard it. - The private beach access couldn't have been any better. - Communication with Jim was great! - Being a duplex home, it's always a crapshoot with who ends up beside you but the couple that lives beside this portion of the home are great. It was nice to meet them & nice knowing that someone local was there in case there were any questions about the area. - The top level was very warm when we got there BUT it was one of the hottest weeks on record and with people moving out, cleaning crews there before our arrival & then with us unpacking it made sense. The thermostats are touch and scroll so make sure you get those set to your liking upon arrival. We kept the shades down during the peak of the day as we were all at the beach. - The home overall is well appointed, clean & definitely worth consideration for your next visit to Surf City. - Shaka Tacos & Hot Diggity Dogs are fantastic. Most of our party could have eaten there every day. - Beach Shop and Grill has a new chef & it's the nicest restaurant on the entire island. They don't take reservations so go earlier for some family pictures before/after dinner. $$$$ but good. - 50 South rents bikes and delivers - set up before travel. Highly recommend Jim and this property!

Great vacation

Our family of adult children, grandkids and dogs had a great time at SEArenity Now. Jim was an excellent host. Responded quickly to the few questions we had. The house was clean and well stocked. Beds were made when we arrived and all linens and towels were provided along with beach chairs and toys. The location was excellent. We could see the Surf City bridge from the kitchen window and the private beach access was directly across the street. Kitchen was well stocked and the frig had a working ice machine (a first for us in Surf city). We hope to be back soon!
