Perfect house
This was the perfect house for our group. It has split levels and room for everyone. There was plenty to do at the house with the game room, pool and a quick private path to the beach. We will be coming back to this house if we are ever back in the area.

This property was a true jem! The backyard is really special (which was wonderful when the weather was super hot) and there was still a private direct path to the beach. Clean, excellent location, great use of space inside and would definitely go back!

Backyard Bliss
We loved our stay at Carolina Tides! The pictures represented the property well, and that back yard -the reason we booked the property - was perfect for our family! We loved that it took only 3 minutes to get to the amazing beach, but we spent so much time in the beautiful pool area with our small grandchildren. This property is good for all ages (basketball, foosball, cornhole, etc). We could not have been happier! The hosts were excellent. Communication was quick and easy and check-in and check-out were a breeze! We highly recommend Carolina Tides!

Family Vacation 2024
This was the perfect place to stay. Kitchen was well stocked with the necessary cookware. Plenty of very soft towels/washcloths and beach towels. We didn’t have to think about anything, even provided beach chairs. The back yard and pool was paradise. Hammocks great for napping! The owners communicated with us so well. We will be staying here again! Best week ever! 10/10!!!

Great Start To Summer
This was an excellent rental… just as advertised by the owners. Property has everything you could need, but owners were very responsive to the few questions we had. Plenty of parking room for a few vehicles. We loved the short walk to the private beach access, as well as downtown Surf City. Highly recommend!

Annual Family Beach Trip
The house was just as pictured, including the amazing backyard which we took full advantage of on a somewhat rainy day. The kitchen was well-stocked, the living/dining area roomy enough for all of us, and the linens provided were top-notch. The distance to the beach was an easy block and 1/2 which we were happy about because the Memorial Weekend traffic on the island was crazy! Jeff and Karen were helpful, and responsive. This was our family's 17th annual Memorial Day beach vacation and our 1st time in Surf City. The beach was beautiful and everyone we met was friendly, would highly recommend this location.

July 4th Birthday and Fireworks
This property is close to the beach with private access. The backyard is delightful with a play are and pool. Great location for families. Staying over the 4th of July -the front porch was perfect for viewing the fireworks without leaving home. A little surprised not to have beach towels and toilet paper - but contacted the owner who responded immediately to explain this was an oversight. The bathrooms were a little dated but the occupant of the basement area was able to use the hot/cold shower in the cabana.

The majority of our time was spent in the backyard pool area. Pool was excellent! Landscaping was beautiful. Best backyard in the neighborhood, it was an oasis! Short walk to the beach. Bunk beds were spacious for all kids, of which there were many! Would recommend this property.

Spring Break 2024
Wonderful! We had 4 adults and 3 kids, and this house fit us perfectly. Incredibly well equipped kitchen (we made Easter dinner with ham and turkey, and did not have to buy additional aluminum baking pans). Grilled out as well, grill is in great shape. Backyard is impeccable, and the pool was fantastic and clean. Plenty of towels, bathroom and pool. Everyone had a great time and we would definitely rent this home again!

We were so impressed with this property. Everything about this home was cozy and welcoming… and VERY clean! The house is updated and beautifully decorated! We loved the easy access to the beach across the street. Sunsets were amazing. Location was great, walking or biking distance to shops, restaurants and bars. Highly recommend; we will be back in the summer when the pool is ready!

That backyard made it worth it!
The backyard was perfect for a vacation alone, let alone dinners and entertaining! The pool was so clean, the backyard space was so serene, and the outdoor kitchen was perfect! The house was comfortable for us (6 adults, 2 kids) but the kids room was definitely the nicest since it was the only room with an attached bathroom. Would definitely rebook, for the backyard alone!
