Wonderful week at the beach

Comfortable, well stocked, clean home with great ocean views. Quaint screened in porch area that is perfect for sipping coffee in the morning, or watching it rain in the afternoons. It was truly a wonderful visit.

The house was in a perfect location. It was clean but could use some TLC. The bathroom off the master is the tiniest I’ve ever seen and I wasn’t comfortable in the shower, but I was able to use the nice big shower in the other bathroom. The owner was so easy to communicate with.

October is our favorite time at the beach. We usually pick a different dog friendly place each year. Clint's place is now our favorite and we haven't stayed anywhere that we liked better than "Our Happy Place". The view is just as good as ocean front. The screened in porch is where we stayed most of the time. All the beds were comfortable and the living room furniture was comfortable as well. The beach access was really close by. This place has everything we needed and more. We are already planning our next trip here. Thanks Clint for being the best host ever!!

Great place to vacation

The house is in a great location being so close to the beach and several restaurants in Surf City and met our needs very nicely for a weekend family getaway! The game room downstairs was perfect for both the kids and adults as it unfortunately rained a lot on the weekend we were there. The house was very comfy stay and we enjoyed our more than expected time inside more due to the comfortable furnishings. Would definitely stay again!

We thoroughly enjoyed our short stay in Surf City. The home was very clean and comfortable. We enjoyed watching the storm out on the ocean our first night and the full moon rise the second night. The kitchen is well stocked and where we made some delicious meals. We hope to return soon.

White (sandy) Christmas

This was our second stay at Our Happy Place. We had such a great time spending Christmas at Clint’s place. Check in was a breeze and he was so flexible on checking in early and checking out late. We spent the majority of our time on the front deck that overlooks the ocean. The kitchen is fully stocked, beds are comfy and the backyard is a plus! Will definitely be booking again :)

Spring break stay

Everything was as advertised. It truly is a happy place. The views of the water can’t be beat! The beach is so much better than public surf city beach, much nicer sand and not crowded. Easy walk caddy corner from the home.The home has everything you could need, including beach chairs, boggie boards and sand toys. The table games were a hit too. Our dogs loved the fenced yard.Clint was a pleasure to work with. Definitely a 5 star stay! We’ll be back!

Wonderful Stay

We had a great time at Clint's place. The house was comfortable, including the beds. It was more spacious than the pictures show which was nice. The screened in porch was a great place to hang out and look at the ocean. The beach access was super easy and the location was very quiet. Clint was also very responsive and all the little touches were nice, such as the beach equipment. We would stay again for sure.
