7 of us came for a quick trip to surfside. This is the second time we have stayed in this home. Small but cozy. Everything you need to make meals is there and that is super important to me. Be advised that they require you to wash and dry all lines and towels before departing or you get a fee tacked on. Location is right beside a beach entrance to the county beach so that was awesome as we did not want to be on surfside city beach.

We enjoyed our time at this house and found it to be as listed. It is about 3rd row back from the beach, but a quick walk to the bridge over the dunes. Our dog was very comfortable here.
FYIs the fence is not very tall and probably only good for small dogs to use as an actual fence.
We were there in Nov right after Thanksgiving and the mosquitos were awful. Bring all the spray and everything else.

While the picture of proximity to the beach was not correct the walk was not not bad at all, even for the little ones. We had no issues with mosquitoes walking back and forth. The bridge crossover to the beach is in need of some repairs. The house was good just never got used to feeling the sway of a house on stilts lol or the horrible smell of the water in the house. Overall we had a great time and the host is great and super quick to respond.

The beach house was clean and had everything we needed. The landlord communicated very quickly for any of our needs and questions. Just a short walk over the dunes to the beach. We were warned about the mosquitoes, and it’s true! Bring some really good mosquito spray if you’re hanging out at the beach house outside! During the day, they weren’t bad at all, but one evening hit they were pretty plentiful. Of course we were told about the build ration system in the house for bathing and cooking, and that that it was safe. but it does have a really fishy smell so just be prepared for that. We went to a couple restaurants located in the area within 10 miles. We went to Clute Texas for breakfast at a place called Sweet Ts. We had Mexican food at a restaurant called El Himador(or something like that). And we had breakfast on our last day at Seahorse Bar and Grill right down the street from us. Looks like a cool place to hang out for drinks as well. All were really good food! We cooked out a couple nights with hamburgers and hotdogs. We cooked a couple meals in the kitchen. Make sure you bring your bottled water and all the groceries needed to cook at the house and on the grill. We had a great time!

Very nice stay and first time back to Surfside in years The weather cooperated until the last day and we enjoyed the short walk to the beach and did not find anything lacking at our rental.

It was clean and cute. Very simple.
However,
Couches were uncomfortable.
Coffee table very wobbly. Kitchen chairs wobbly. Downstairs/outside shower didn't work. And, the smoke detector went off in the middle of the night. The handyman did come by and take care of all issues. (Except the kitchen chairs because i didn't realize this until our last night there) The smoke detector did go off our last night there and i just unplugged it so we wouldn't have to deal with it again.
I was under the impression by pics and the comment i read of: a few feet from beach, that it was on the beach. It's not. It wasn't far but i wanted a house with full beach view. But, you make the best of what you get.
Jennifer was easy to get ahold of and answered quickly. She sent the handyman quickly to resolve known issues.
The home was cute. Beds comfortable.
I don't want to sound like I'm complaining because we did enjoy our time there and whenever you stay somewhere else there will be discomforts.
I won't stay again, only because it's not on the beach. That's my personal preference. But, i would definitely rent from Jennifer again.

It really is a very easy walk to the beach. We could easily go back and forth as needed. The beach area was clean and not overly busy. One thing I didn't know about Surfside Beach is that you can drive your car on the beach. It was odd to have cars on the beach but also useful to have an easy way to haul all of your items to the beach.
The house itself is small but has everything needed. The kitchen is well stocked. Our only challenge was low water pressure, which I hear is common for the island location. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend this house to friends.

Check
The renting of the actual property was easy and the property manager was easy to contact and responded quickly. However, the first thing I noticed when we got there was an old box spring under the house growing mosquitos. The house is nothing special and looks tired. We were exhausted after a long day of travel and excitement and when I went to put the kids to bed there were no sheets on the bed. This was extremely annoying but I guess it’s good to know they are cleaned. However, the most annoying part of this entire experience was definitely check out day. Despite what you are told there is a book with everything you have to do before you leave. So, instead of getting to play on the beach in the morning I got to spend 3 hours doing dishes and laundry instead of relaxing on my vacation. I could of saved money and stayed home to do that! I was never told about any “laundry option” and I read another review that touched on this and the manager’s response was that you could just leave the dishes in the dishwasher and the dryer but that’s not true according to the rules in the book left in the house. It says towels and sheets must be washed and folded and put away and that dishes must be cleaned not just put in the dishwasher. I’m not actually sure what the cleaning crew does because there were fur balls rolling around on the floor and dishes in the dishwasher when we got there.
Conclusion: Bring disposable plates,
Silverware and cups so you don’t have to deal with the dishes and bring your own pillows and sleeping bags and towels so you don’t have to get stuck doing tons of laundry on check out day. There is the threat of $50 charges for each little thing that you may accidentally forget like leaving a wet washcloth in the shower so beware! It was nice to be close to the beach though. I think we may try a different house next time.

This property was perfect for a weekend stay. It’s a smaller property but was just enough since you spend the majority of the time at the beach!

I did not expect was the house to smell humid or wet rug the entire time. My check-in process could have been better considering I booked weeks in advance and made full payment upon reservation, I did not receive access information until I arrived at the property and upon seeing the information nowhere accessible I messaged the owner. Jennifer was very quick to respond, however, it was at that point upon reading the information just provided that I find out of the need to bring mosquito repellant. A very important thing considering the mosquitoes are a good inch long (on the small side) and the container with "toys" is a quarter full with water and mosquitoes. The internet connection was extremely slow and I was outside a good 10 minutes before I was even able to get the access code to unlock the front door. Coming in you find the place that appears clean, and I did not confirm this considering we were rushing to get in the water (as expected). I did not open the shower or check the bathtub, or check the mattresses or blankets to see if they were clean or not. I assumed they would be considering I was charged the $100 cleaning fee. It wasn't until after our return from the beach and before I stepped in the shower that I noticed the sand on the edges of the shower and the dirty floor, same thing with the tub. Soon thereafter, before calling it a night, I find the mattress pad with a disgusting brown stain. I had seen some folded blankets on the edge of the bed upon arriving, however, I thought these were extra blankets. I did not expect these to be the blankets I would need to use to set my bed, and every bed, for the night. The beds were covered with a comforter already. I had to simply use those blankets over the mysterious brown spot as I was afraid that if I took the mattress cover off, the underlying mattress would be so much worse. This was in the master bedroom which I shared with my 10 year old niece, she is now full of bed bug bites. My brother slept in the bed next to the bunk beds and his pillow smelled like urine that he had to throw it over to one of those beds to get the stench away. The water smells as though it is reused septic water. The property description states this is water from the water well, however, we are used to using water from wells in my parent's ranch that doesn't stink as this. We had to wash all laundry and leave house clean for next guest yet we paid the cleaning fee for doing the owner's work and responsibility

We have stayed at this property 3 times. Jennifer is so flexible. We had to change our dates 4 times I think. They do a great job keeping up with the maintenance of the property. It is such a hard place to keep up with the ocean.
It is a great location. We love the 1 minute walk to the beach. Each time we have stayed we have taken our dog. It was perfect.
Jennifer communicates so very well. Her response is very quick.
We love this property and will be back as soon as we can!
