Great Vacation Home

This is the 2nd time we have stayed at this home for our summer vacation. The location is really great. Close to beach access and to local shopping including a grocery store. Kitchen is well stocked and house is clean. The pool is a great feature!

Great getaway house

This was the perfect house for our family. Close to the beach close to town as well. Home is clean comfortable and well maintained and well stocked, area is nice and the neighborhood was quiet. The only “complaint” if I’d even call it that would be that the carpets could use a good cleaning as it was pretty stained throughout. Will definitely book here again.

Great house for OBX vacation

Our family of eight enjoyed our stay at Surf's Up. The house is very conveniently located to the beach access and has a pool. The house is spacious, especially with all of the deck seating areas. I was especially impressed with the well stocked kitchen. There were ample dishes, silverware, serving dishes, and a large variety of pots and pans that made cooking and eating with a family easy. Thank you!

Great location. clean and comfortable

This was a great house. We had everything we needed. The grill could definitely use an upgrade and other than that the house was very nice and you cannot beat the location and the pool. The pool was well maintained and our family had a blast in the hot tub. We had amazing views of the sunset in the back of the house too.

Not what we were expecting

It's getting a little worn inside and out, so some updating is needed. That wasn't the problem, photos reflected the age of the property. We've been traveling to that area for 40 years and stayed in many properties. Never before have we been met with the uncleanliness, and never before have we ever been so dismissed by the owner/handler. There were barstool seats. One had a piece of tape on it. So what. Until I sat on the seat and was pierced by a nail (Tetanus?) in my nether region, that they tried to cover with tape. We called about the dirty pool and we're told it was cleaned as they got to it, but for an additional fee they could take care of it. We had a great time regardless, but will not be renting that house, nor deal with this company if we can avoid it.

We had a great week. The house was clean and well stocked and the management company was very responsive! We received detailed instructions before we got there and if there were any problems how and whom to reach out to. Loved that it was pet friendly and did not smell/look like pets were there!! Would definitely recommend this home.

Nice Place in Corolla

The property is situated in a fairly private location with a vacant lot to one side and foliage in back for privacy with just a couple block walk to beach access. The house is spacious, clean, and comfortable. We enjoyed relaxing on the decks in the morning and evenings, watching the beautiful sunsets. Thank you, Jeff

Such a great time

My family and I really enjoyed Surfs Up. The home is plenty large enough for us and the upper level provides roomy seating both for the living and dining room with extra room in the kitchen for meal prep. The proximity to the beach was great and the pool and hot tub were great for relaxing at home! The rental office was VERY helpful and always available. We couldn't be more pleased.

Dog & baby friendly and Great location to the beach!

We enjoyed our stay at this property, good location to the beach. It was great that the property was dog friendly. We reported a couple things to maintenance once we arrived and they showed up literally within 10 minutes so that was awesome. The jets on the hot tub were out and not fixed during our stay so that was a bummer, but overall we had a great time and enjoyed the house! Plenty of room for our family and accommodating for babies as well. Can’t wait to come back to the OBX!

Surfs Up was very accommodating for the four of us and our fur babies. The house was very clean and we were able to get in early..thank you that never happens. The distance to the beach was great, short easy walk to beach access. The staff at Shoreline was friendly and accommodating. We left a day early because of Ian but enjoyed our time while we were there. We love the obx and hope to see you next year. The Wolfgongs

We realized this house was a pet friendly home and we have stayed in pet friendly homes in the past. This home had a large amount of fur on all floor carpets, upholstery furniture, bedspreads and pillows. Either a better home vacuum or clean carpets. Thank you

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was a short walk to the beach. Every bedroom walked out to a deck. The section of beach was not overcrowded. I loved having my dogs at the beach. I would definitely stay here again if I return to Corolla.

Surfs Up

The home was very nice and had everything we needed. It was close to the beach and close to the shopping center that we could go in the golf cart to get things. It was so nice having a pool at the house to use. We had a great vacation with 3 little kids and it even had a high chair and baby gates! Plenty of room for 4 couples to stay and the room with the bunk beds worked great for the kids. Definitely would recommend. Only suggestion would be doing a better job sweeping as there was a lot of pet hair on the floor still, but we did use the vacuum the house had to sweep again.
