Christmas Vacation

The home was perfect for visiting with our family and grandsons who live near Surf City and we live out of state. The elevator was a great comfort and very easy to use. We had a very comfortable stay, and we'll go back again.

Great place, good location

One of the cleanest properties we have ever stayed at! Close to the shops and restaurants of Surf City but far enough away that you're not in the thick of all the traffic. There were 8 of us total, 4 adults and 4 kids. Loved that the house already had a high chair , so that was great at meal times for the 1 year old. Easy walk to the beach. The most difficult part was the walk up Fairytale Lane because it's all gravel. Overall a good week for our families!

Great house!

Our family of five including three young children very much enjoyed Saylor's Sandcastle. It's an easy walk to the beach and the house is very nice. Lots of decks. Well stocked kitchen. And it's so quiet!

Peaceful weekend in Surf City

We enjoyed our stay at this great home on Fairytale Ln in Surf City. The open concept kitchen/dining/family room space with covered porch was a lovely space to hang out and enjoy the sounds of the ocean in the distance. 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms provided adequate space. A plus is the short walk to the private beach access point. The only small notes: the door lock was a bit difficult to work, once we figured it out it was fine. Also, it would be great to have specific directions where to find the private beach access point (we walked quite a long way in the wrong direction the first day, and found it in the other direction on the 2nd day). Overall, everything was wonderful, and I would be happy to book this home again in the future.
