Other Details to Note

Must be 21 years old to book. Booking party must be among the numbered guests for the entire stay. No parties or events. Smoke free- Cleaning charges may exceed $500 for any violations and a negative review. The house is in a community, we love our neighbors and want to keep a good environment on our street, so please act, park, swim, boat, and play your tunes with respect to our neighbors. Surf City observes quiet hours at 10 pm. Trash and Recycling is picked up Tuesday morning. The cans must be set out anytime on Monday. During the summer months a second trash only pickup is Friday morning. The trash can must be set out on Thursday. Trash pickup is very important to ensure the can are not overflowing. Of note, this is Coastal NC, and we have "water bugs" which are giant roach looking bugs. Open doors or windows will allow easy entry to these opportunists...and they are ugly. Unfortunately, there is no way to prevent our guests from seeing one of these occasionally indoors, as we treat for them often, and this causes them to come inside looking for shade and water as they die. That being said, we do not offer a refund for bugs- we professionally treat the house often. We strongly suggest purchasing private travel insurance as we do not offer refunds for trip interruptions or weather. Hurricane season runs from June 1-November 30 in NC, with most activity in September and October. If the island evacuates before your stay begins, then we would certainly refund. In the event of a named storm or wind event, we may secure all interior and exterior furniture, to protect against high water and wind. Any guest number exceeding 11 would need to have prior permission before arrival. If the house exceeds the listed number of renters this is a violation of Airbnb's policies and the stay will be terminated and no refund granted.

Beautiful house with everything we needed(tons of beach chairs, cargo wagon, boogie boards, umbrellas, games). We could see the ocean from the decks and only 5 to 10 min walk to the water. Brittany is a great host, quick to respond and made sure we were comfortable.

Absolutely loved our week at the beach. House was exactly as advertised, very comfy and clean. Great location and lots of amenities. Super easy check-in and out. Host was extremely responsive. We discovered the remote for the TV soundbar was missing, and she had a replacement delivered by Amazon in 2 days. We loved the golf cart, which got us to the beach in about couple of minutes, as well as to restaurants and the pier. Definitely recommend renting the golf cart, especially for toting beach chairs, umbrellas, etc.! We also enjoyed that the house had large decks on different sides of the house…for morning coffee or afternoon drinks…sunrises or sunsets! A really great place, and an excellent host. Highly recommend!

Our stay at Brittany’s place in Surf City was fantastic. Everything was as described and very clean. We loved having the golf cart, beach toys, and grill. Beach access was very, very close. Our kids loved the bunk beds! I’d highly recommend this place if you’re going to the beach!

Brittany is a great host with the best spot to rent. Communicated very well and fast. She got us a golf cart in no time when we really needed it.(guest had a broken foot). Thank you so much Brittany!

Brittany was a wonderful host and went above and beyond in communicating with us as needed. The house was perfect for our family and we enjoyed all of the conveniences that were provided within the house; it was clean, comfortable and thoughtfully stocked with everyday items. You can see and hear the ocean from the top deck so even when you’re just relaxing at the house you can still get some ocean time in. We rented the golf cart along with the house and it was worth every penny! Beach access was just a quick walk away, but the golf cart definitely came in handy for tired little legs and quick convenience store runs while saving our cars from sand. Overall it was a great house. We look forward to staying here again.
