About this house rental

Welcome to Southern Comfort, one of Surf City's most distinctive family vacation homes.

Perfectly situated on prestigious South Shore Drive, this spacious coastal retreat offers the best of Topsail Island living—steps from the beach, walking distance to restaurants, shops, the Surf City Pier, and local attractions, yet just far enough from the center of town to enjoy a quieter, more relaxing beach experience.

Unlike many vacation rentals, Southern Comfort was originally built and enjoyed as a private family residence. Today, it continues to be thoughtfully maintained and continually upgraded, providing guests with a level of comfort, quality, and attention to detail that is immediately noticeable upon arrival.

Your Own Private Outdoor Retreat:

One of the home's most unique features is its private backyard oasis—a rare amenity this close to the ocean.

Enjoy:

• Private swimming pool
• Hot tub
• Tropical landscaping with mature palms
• Outdoor entertaining bar
• Outdoor dining areas
• Spacious fenced yard
• Outdoor shower
• Multiple areas to relax in the sun or shade

After a day at the beach, gather poolside for dinner, enjoy evening cocktails under the palms, or unwind with a soak beneath the stars.

Views From Every Direction:

Perched on one of the highest elevations in Surf City, Southern Comfort offers remarkable views of the Atlantic Ocean, the Intracoastal Waterway, and the town itself.

Five expansive decks provide countless opportunities to enjoy sunrise coffee, afternoon sea breezes, and spectacular evening sunsets. With views from nearly every room, guests never feel far from the water.

Designed for Large Families and Gatherings:

Southern Comfort comfortably accommodates large family groups and multiple generations traveling together.

Highlights include:

• Multiple king bedrooms
• Spacious common areas
• Separate upper and lower living rooms
• Elevator access to multiple levels
• Large dining areas
• Flexible sleeping arrangements for children, teens, and adults

The dual living spaces allow everyone to spread out comfortably while still enjoying time together under one roof.

Well-Appointed for Extended Stays:

The gourmet kitchen is well equipped for everything from quick breakfasts to holiday dinners and family celebrations.

Guests also enjoy:

• High-speed Wi-Fi
• Smart TVs throughout the home
• Washer and dryer
• Elevator
• Gas and charcoal grills
• Extensive outdoor seating
• Ample parking

Whether you're planning a week-long family vacation, reunion, milestone celebration, or holiday getaway, the home is designed to make large-group travel easy and comfortable.

Walk to the Best of Surf City:

Leave the car parked and explore Surf City on foot.

Within walking distance you'll find:

• Public beach accesses
• Surf City Pier
• Restaurants and waterfront dining
• Ice cream shops
• Coffee shops
• Boutique shopping
• Bicycle, paddleboard, and beach equipment rentals
• Soundside Park and community events

South Shore Drive is one of Surf City's most desirable locations, known for its relaxed atmosphere, scenic surroundings, and easy access to everything the island has to offer.

Why Guests Return to Southern Comfort:

✔ Private Pool & Hot Tub
✔ Elevator
✔ Five Large Decks
✔ Ocean, Sound & Town Views
✔ Walking Distance to Surf City Attractions
✔ Steps to Beach Access
✔ Large Private Yard
✔ Two Separate Living Areas
✔ Ideal for Multi-Generational Families

For families seeking space, comfort, convenience, and a true Topsail Island experience, Southern Comfort delivers a vacation that feels less like a rental home and more like your own private coastal retreat.

Ted is a very accommodating host for his rentals. We enjoyed our stay very much, this house was located across the street from the ocean and within walking distance of all the shops and restaurants. Our family reunion was a great success and everybody commented on how they would like to come back again next year.

There is nothing better than being together with the whole family. We loved being together in one home. There were a couple of issues with the heat (not often needed at the beach) as well as the pool and hot tub. Ted always answered my calls and texts and was very prompt to provide support and send over technicians.

This was our second year at the property. We had a GREAT time yet again. We had adults ranging from 25 to 75 years old and 2 infants who were one year old and two months old. The accommodations were good for everyone, and the location is absolutely the best. We spend a lot of time on the balconies and at the pool, and the furniture is perfect for those places. Having the pool was especially helpful with the infants, though we had them at the beach as well. There were some improvements to the property since we were there last year and all were great.I’ve stayed at several VRBO locations around the world, and Ted is by far the best host I have dealt with. He’s always responsive and actually gets things done. His attention to detail is great. We’ll definitely be staying at the property again. Thanks, Ted!!
