Our Coastal Dram - Canal w Private Boat Launch, Dock, Pet Friendly!

Surf City, North Carolina, United States

Our Coastal DrambrA Waterfront property with a Private Boat Launch, Dock, Early Check-In (3:00PM), and Pet Friendly ($150 extra cleaning fee, Please select it when asking for a quote)brbrYou will love the feel of spaciousness with the home's open floor plan and cathedral ceilings. This custom-built home is 2,800 sq feet. It truly is a rare find to have this much living space in a prime beach location. There are 4 large bedrooms (three masters), 3 full baths, and an enormous kitchen with 30 linear feet of granite counter space. Three glass doors open onto your wrap around deck. The ground level features a large entertainment area, bar, full bathroom and a second full kitchen. This entertainment area has access to the yard, and the private dock area. brbrFor those tired of waiting in line at a crowded public boat launch, this waterfront home features your own private boat launch and large newly rebuilt dock (Boat lift is not available for use).brbrWaterfront fun at your backdoor!brbrAn excellent feature of this home is that is has wraparound upper decks as well as a covered lower deck. The wrap around deck also has gates that can be closed to secure children or pets. Because of the way the house is situated, there is always plenty of sun and plenty of shade! There is almost no point in the day when there is not shade on the deck somewhere. And because there is also covered deck areas, you can enjoy sitting outside rain or shine (even fishing off the dock under the covered pavilion in the rain)! brbrSitting out on the deck sipping on your favorite Scotch will be a pleasure in the super comfortable hi-top resin deck furniture. The importance of those high-top chairs is that you sit comfortably ABOVE the railing for an unobstructed view of the water (rather than looking through the railings like prison bars). You can also enjoy sitting on the dock in the assorted rockers and gliders in the shade of your private covered waterfront pavilion to watch the day fade gracefully to dusk. The outdoor area also features two large round picnic tables so that you can enjoy eating and entertaining outside as well as a hammock so you can sneak in a midday nap.brbrFish and crab right in your back yard with the two crab pots provided for the use of our guests. Take an early morning or sunset Kayak ride with one of our 2 kayaks that we make available to our guests. Launching your Kayak is super easy since the home has a private boat launch in the yard. We even have an air pump so that you can bring your favorite inflatable pool or lake floats. Inflate them once and tie them off on the dock for the week! We have seen some impressive inflatables out there. Great fun for the entire family! Then use the pump to deflate them to take them home. We have left some of our favorite inflatables there for guests to use (although we cannot guarantee their availability so best to grab one to bring with you). If you do user ours and damage them, we are grateful if you simply replace it.brbrFor your indoor entertainment:brbrThere are 4 Ultra 4K HT flat screen TVs (65 in in living room, 55 inch in lower entertainment area, and 49 inch in two of the master bedrooms). All TVs have are Smart so you can use your own login and watch your favorite streaming service or use our provided Hulu and Disney+ subscription. You can also cast from your tablet or phone (if applicable). The entertainment and bar level also has foosball to challenge your friends and family while waiting for a short sprinkle to let up or a meal to be served.brbrEnjoying the neighborhood: brbrThe home is perfectly situated in an upscale residential area of single family homes at the cul-de-sac on a quiet dead-end road that the ice cream truck still visits daily during the spring, summer and fall. It is safe for children, for leisurely walk, and bike riding. It is great for the family looking for quiet waterfront relaxation yet still want a property that offers many things to do as well as near-by activities. It is just a short walk to the local arcade, the Friendly Mart grocery store, and the infamous Surf City “Trailer Bar” (2 blocks). Want to head to the beach The home is also a short walk (0.3 miles) to children’s park/playground and (0.4 miles) public beach access with bathrooms and showers. A cross walk (at the crossing by the “Friendly Mart”) makes the walk to the beach and the park easy and safe. The children’s park features an adult fitness area so you can get a bit of exercise while the kids play. There is also a bike stand if you chose to ride there and ample parking if you choose to drive. brbrThe home has a large driveway with ample room to park 6 cars (because sometimes when you have a great house at the beach people just show up!). There is also large grass side yard to park your boat trailer (since it is your private launch, you are free to leave your trailer parked right in front of the launch. brbrAnd finally, because even the best laid vacations plans still leave us with a need to check in at work or conduct some business, we have set up a 48” desk with an external monitor for the use of our guests (HDMI/USB-C Dock connection will be supplied).brbrbr*** Due to a busy cleaning schedule, check-ins will only be accepted M-F and weekends reservations are Saturday and Sunday.

The Best Surf City has to offer! 2nd Row, Private Pool, and Perfectly Maintained

Surf City, North Carolina, United States

As of March 1st, 2020...our house is ranked #4 for all VRBO vacation homes in Surf City/TopsailbrIsland.brbrSurf City, NC, USA|1,223 properties|Market rank: 4brbrWelcome to South Shore! Our goal is to provide our guests with a 5 star experience from beginning to end. So far we have been able to do this by providing great communication, accurate photography, thoughtful amenities, technology, cleanliness, location, quality construction, but most importantly Southern friendliness.brbrWhat sets South Shore apart br* Custom designed plan for the perfect vacation.br* On the Golden Mile - the best location on Topsail Island.br* One of the largest private pools on the island - with a slide and heated during the cooler months at no charge.br* Very large, private backyardbr* Second row and close to the oceanbr* Netgear Orbi Mesh Wifi systembr* Two beach cruiser bikesbrbrThe Location:brThis impeccably maintained cottage is located on South Shore Drive in Surf City just about a mile south of the high rise bridge. This location allows for easy access on and off the island while also providing a bit of distance from the central business district. South Shore Drive is unique on Topsail Island for many reasons. It is close to the bridge, dining, shopping and groceries. It also offers a residential board walk off the main road. This 2 mile board walk, or secondary road, has a 25 mph speed limit and offers the perfect place for a nice walk or morning run. Another advantage tobr1021 South Shore is its proximity to a beach access about 150' (or three lots) to the South. And the property is one of the larger lots on the island that includes quite a few majestic maritime live oaks, that are rare among residential properties around here.brbrThe House:brThe house was chosen for its traditional beach cottage style. It has three bedrooms downstairs with a large living/dining/kitchen area as well as a large loft upstairs. The three bedrooms on the main level will be 1 King, 1 King and 1 Queen, the loft area has 4 Twins. The house has a total sleeping capacity of 10 people. In addition to the sleeping space upstairs there is a game nook with a foosball table, books and board games. Outside there is a large porch on the street side with both covered and open space. In the backyard there is a large pool with a slide and plenty of area to lounge, grill and enjoy time with friends and family. If you are a fisherman and would like to bring your boat to the island, South Shore is located 1 mile from the public boat ramp, and our driveway can easily accommodate up to a 30' boat/trailer. If you like to fish in the ocean, the boat ramp is roughly 8 miles via the ICWW from Topsail Inlet.brWe have tried to make the house appealing to families and have included amenities we enjoy when we travel, to include beach chairs, two beach cruisers, and even a second refrigerator in the pantry.brbr***Trip Protection*** We feel so strongly about trip protection during the Atlantic hurricane season (June lst to November 30th that with a seven day rental and a proof of purchase at the end of your stay we will provide a $100 refund. And if you are staying less than a seven day rental during the hurricane season, we highly encourage you to purchase trip protection through VRBO or your preferred third party vendor. Trip protection will be offered to you via VRBO once your booking is complete. Please accept Trip Protection.brbr***Fees***A quick note about the number of fees renters are required to pay by VRBO. We are kneenly aware that the amount and quantity of fees add up quickly on a vacation rental. But most of them are out of our control. The service fee is set by VRBO and the taxes are set by the state, county, and city. This cleaning fee and linen fee are set by our vendors and represent the exact amount we are charged. We feel both of our vendors are the best on the island. The property fee is a refundable excessive cleaning deposit and is there to protect us from intentional damage. Unfortunately, over the years we have had two renters on our property were we had to withhold a portion of the deposit.
