Oceanfront Home,Early Check-In, Pool, Elevator, 50 Steps to the Beach
About this house rental
Situated in Surf City, this lovely house for $452 per night is a great option for your next trip. If you have ever been to Surf City, you are familiar with this this home as it sits in a group of 4 iconic luxury ocean front buildings (which make up 8 luxury ocean front town homes). These large beautify pastel town homes makeup the town shore line and sit on North Shore drive in the 100 block just past Daddy Mac’s. You can truly park your car when you arrive and not get in it again for your entire vacation! Walking distance (1/2 mile or less) to 15 eating establishments from snow cones and ice cream to some of the islands best restaurants! You can even walk to the marina and rent a boa, go out on a fishing charter or take a dinner cruise. Walk to the surf city park and enjoy free Friday night outdoor movies and concerts or just enjoy all that the town has to offer. When you come home you can relax by the private community pool overlooking the beach (Private to the 8 luxury town homes). The pool is just exclusive enough to retain the privacy but gives the children and young adults a chance to make friends quickly. While this home has “location, location, location”, the real benefit is the quality of the home itself. The first thing that you will notice is the quality of the construction. The home features porcelain tile and bamboo hardwood throughout, heavy trim work and 10 ft ceilings. The quality construction also includes heavy insulation, so you will immediately be impressed by how quiet the home is (important when you are vacationing with a large group). Each of the 4 main bedrooms is a master (having its own private full bathroom attached). Three of the 4 main bedrooms feature King size beds and the 4th bedroom features a custom built Twin XL over queen bunk bed and a twin over twin bunk bed. The fifth bedroom is on the entry level and has a twin over full bunk to help accommodate the overflow when unexpected additional guests show up (because you know when you have a wonderful place at the beach ….it will happen!). Note that this room does not have a private bathroom, but your guest will find it far superior to a sofa sleeper alternative for your overflow that is offered in many other homes!!) Everyone will appreciate the elevator to move luggage, food and family between floors. We rented for nearly 30 years before we were finally able to purchase our own rental property in Topsail. We used all that knowledge to make this home a superb rental. Here is what we learned and what we have done to make this home a perfect rental experience for you! After location, location, location, comes BEDDING, BEDDING, BEDDING! Ever gone to a great rental only to find that after 2 or 3 nights your body ached due to poor bedding and inferior mattresses? You work too hard for your vacation to take a chance. We feature premium Simmons “World Class BeautyRest Recharge” (top of the line) mattresses in all our beds. This includes the bunk beds because we know that adults are frequently sleeping in those beds. Next is deck furniture! Ever go to a home with little or no deck furniture? Or furniture that sits so low you are left looking through the railings like prison bars? This home features high top resin deck chairs. These chairs are not only extremely comfortable, they give you a spectacular unobstructed view of the ocean. Enjoy the stunning views from the two covered ocean front decks overlooking the ocean and swimming pool You will never want to go inside! Fully stocked kitchen and Pantry items: This kitchen is complete with all the kitchen gadgets and utensils you could desire. The home features a “pay it forward pantry” where we start the prime season with spices, pantry items, coffee, shampoo, paper products, laundry detergent and kitchen nonperishables. These items are available for our guest to use and enjoy on an honor system. We only ask that when you use the last of something, you pay it forward to the next guest by replacing it. If you have non-perishables you do not want to take home, feel free to pay it forward for the next guest to enjoy. Pay it forward beach chairs for guest use: We provide several collapsible/folding beach chairs for the home. We all know that the salt air and sand cause these chairs to rapidly degrade. If you use our chairs and one happens to break, we ask that you simply pay it forward and replace the chair so that our next guests can enjoy the benefit of not having to pack these items. Parking: Parking is under the home for 3 large cars or 4 compact cars. Overflow public parking directly across the street. 500 count premium bed linens are included. Furnishings Matter! This home features seating for 10 around the dinner table and seating for 4 at the bar counter. Because understand that sometimes you may need to check in at work or check your personal email, the home has a small office set up including desk, chair and 32 inch computer monitor in the 2nd floor ocean front master bedroom for the use of our guests during their stay. The home also has commercial grade router for fast reliable service throughout the home.

Very nice house, enough room for family and 3 grandchildren. You cannot go wrong with the location. Parked the car and didn't get back in until i checked out. Loved the elevator, my 84 yr old mom loved it too. The only thing is the king beds need updated, the foam toppers on them were uncomfortable. But you cant go wrong with the location.

This is the 2nd year we have rented from Ted - Just great communication and locations of his homes. Even with Idalia passing through during our week - we had a great time together and made all the memories. The beds were super comfortable, towel and bed linens laid out for us on arrival. And nice pool we were able to set up our corn hole tournaments to play with all the residents. We did have to call in for help at the home and Theo & Colby could not have been more accommodating, even giving us local pointers for restaurants and such. We love this location and surf and will be seeking out Ted to schedule our next Adventure in Surf City!. Thank you from our family to yours.

The whole family, ranging in ages, loved this home. You cannot get any closer to the ocean. You step out of your home, pass the pool and you are on the beach. If you like to try surfing, the waves were huge for the Atlantic Ocean.
The pool is warm and kept very clean.
You can walk to restaurants easily. Our favorite part was to get up, see the sunrise and walk the bridge. We did this every day of our week long stay. The elevator makes unloading and loading so easy. The high chairs on the 2 covered(shaded) decks makes it so easy to watch your family and waves. One last thing, finding shark teeth on the beach!

We stay with Ted every year. It’s a “no-brainer”. It’s always perfect. He’s the best host. Nothing else to add to previous year’s reviews. Come see for yourself (just don’t steal my week 😉)!

Its obvious the owners value quality in all importance areas. Mattresses, patio and interior furnishing. The additional amenities like the grill were nice touches that we had paid extra for in other locations. Our favorite was the early check-in. Made the first day that much more enjoyable.

This was our 2nd year staying at one of Ted’s properties and it was just as amazing as the year before! The location is perfect. We park our cars and are able to walk everywhere. Ted is amazing! Very responsive and so nice! All of the furniture and bedding are so comfortable, truly a home away from home. Can’t wait until next year!

This was the fourth time we have stayed in this property. We have not been able to all get together for 3 years due to the pandemic and military deployment. The house is still beautiful and provides the perfect setting for our family to enjoy the beach and everything Topsail has to offer.

The house was comfortable for our group of 7 adults and children and the beachfront views were lovely. The kitchen was well equipped and the dining room was large enough for a big group. The beds were comfortable and towels were provided, except for beach towels. There were some beach toys/boogie boards left by previous visitors and the community pool was fun. It has a large 3ft end that worked well for our kids. We all enjoyed being able to walk to stores and restaurants. There is a small, well stocked grocery store nearby. The one downside to being close to everything is a bar behind the house that gets a little noisy on weekends. Ear plugs might be helpful for light sleepers. I would recommend this house for families.

A group of 8 stayed at this beautiful home for a week of mainly golfing and beach walking. The accommodations were well-suited for 4 couples, with each couple having their own bathroom. The owner was responsive to a few repairs that needed to be made. Overall, we would stay again

This house was just what we needed for our family. Our teenager's enjoyed the location to be able to walk to the stores and the pier. The fisherman in our crew loved the ease of walking to the pier or th park to fish. The access to the beach was easy. The house was well stocked in the kitchen. The view in the mornings was spectacular of the sunrise.

Sea-King Refuge was exactly as pictured and described, and amazingly convenient to restaurants, bars, coffee shops, and grocery stores. We hosted two family gatherings to celebrate Christmas and were pleased with the well-stocked kitchen, sleeping arrangements and multiple bathrooms. The views from the decks were spectacular, including daily dolphin sightings. Ted is a "super" host, very quick to respond and quite personable. Our family would definitely recommend this lovely home!

Our family's stay was everything we hoped it would be during our visit to Surf City. The house was as advertised and the owner was friendly, gracious and accommodating. We asked whether there was a griddle on site and his reply was; “If there isn't one there will be when you get there.” There was a new griddle in the kitchen upon our arrival. The house is steps from the beach and we loved the bedrooms, each with a bath. The beds were very comfortable as new mattresses had been recently added to the house. The location on North Shore Dr. is walking distance to several nice places to eat.
