Loved it, location was perfect.
10 / 10Outstanding·Aug 2021
The house was perfect for our family of 6 plus my parents~ photos were what you get but better (heated shower downstairs came in handy a lot plus the kids loved all the turtles!). Lacked a few kitchen necessities, but the grocery (literally across the street) had what we needed and was very reasonably priced. What I'd really like to comment on though is the beach~ as a mom of 4 (aged 3-12), I was impressed and thrilled at how quiet, close, and family friendly it felt! We did rent a golf cart to help with hauling all the toys and supplies, but made the walk without more than a few times. There was never a time I lost sight of my kids (which has happened a lot at other beaches) because even in July the beach was quiet!! To some people it might seem silly, but I loved being able to relax and enjoy my vacation instead of constantly looking my kids' heads amongst 20 other kids!

We had a great time at Surf’s Up for a long weekend getaway. Just a few things that kept the rating from a 5-star.
Pros: House was clean, spacious and perfect for our group of 7. We had 4 adults and 3 kids and all had plenty of space. We made our own meals and kitchen was accommodating. Hanging out underneath the house in the evenings was great. Picnic tables, grill and porch swing all were wonderful adds. The location to the beach was perfect - with just a short walk or drive.
Cons: The first night, not long after we arrived, a breaker was tripped (for no apparent reason) and power was off in the back bedrooms and bathroom. We received a call back from property manager within an hour and was able to switch it back on ourselves. Second night, happened again. We then got a call another day later that an electrician would be onsite to take a look. We had to stay at the house to wait on him and adjust our schedule due to the last minute notification. The WiFi was also not working. We sent a message to let them know and ended up getting a call that someone would be out to check it and we had to be back at the house to wait on the tech to arrive. Upon his arrival, he determined new parts were needed and we were without WiFi then for our stay. We selected this property mainly as it was one of few with WiFi, so was very disappointed. Warning: without wifi, signal is spotty at best at the house. While I appreciate the prompt service, we did have to adjust our schedules to be available for these two appointments.
Also, the back porch door doesn’t close securely and we were woken up second night by high winds banging the door. We propped it open with a chair on the patio as a workaround fix.
6 / 10Average·Jun 2018
Property was great! Very cute. Kitchen very well stocked. Gave stars because I paid $110 extra for linens and they were there when I arrived. Very fresh and nice..... when doing a walk through to make sure kids didn't forget anything, found a tub of linens in one of the closets. So, basically, I just threw away $110. Would of given 5 stars if not for that disappointing find.
