Wonderful stay

Beautiful house located in an idyllic setting nestled in the old live oak trees. Easy walk from the public access located at the top of the driveway. Wonderful hosts who are responsive with a listing just as described.

Clean, great location & accomodating host!

Prior to our arrival, we read the review that is posted below ours. We reached out to the host and they were more than accommodating to making sure concerns were taken care of. The deck was newly power washed and we loved hanging out there each morning. The trees provide for some nice privacy and are beautiful to look at. We found the cleanliness of the house to be excellent. The location is ideal, quiet privacy with a two minute walk to the beach! We appreciated the communication received from the host on a few occasions.

Perfect House!

The Shell of Sargasso is a perfect house: private, quiet, spacious and a quick walk to the beach. We’ve stayed 2 times at this house and will come back again! The house has always been clean and well kept, always stocked with just what we need for when we first get there.

An Enjoyable Stay!

We recently had the pleasure of staying at this wonderful Shell of Sargasso Home in Surf City, and we couldn't be happier with our experience. The house was impeccably clean and incredibly cozy, making it the perfect retreat for our getaway. The host was fantastic, providing immediate responses to any questions we had, which made our stay even more enjoyable. One of the highlights was the location – just a short walk from the beach, allowing us to enjoy the sun and surf with ease. Additionally, the house is situated in a quiet neighborhood, offering a peaceful and relaxing environment. We would definitely stay here again if we come up to Surf City in the future. Highly recommended!

A True Gem!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house exceeded our expectations, the kitchen was stocked and the goodies on the counter was such a thoughtful touch. We expected to bring linens, but didn’t need to. The beds were CRAZY comfortable, and we had way more than enough space for all of us. It was indeed a 5 minute max walk to the beach, incredibly pleasant and easy to get to. We love Surf City/Topsail and have been going for years. This house made this year’s annual trip so enjoyable for us. Special thank you to Hunter who was very friendly and responsive throughout our stay!!! We will definitely look to stay here again!

Fantastic!

This quaint house in a relaxed neighborhood was the perfect stay for my birthday weekend. With just a short 2 minute walk to the beach and plenty of shade for us at home , it made for a great time. We were able to grill out with the the charcoal grill downstairs on the patio, use some spices to cook in the kitchen and had plenty of utensils and plates to use as well. It was easy to clean with the amenities and very comfortable after our Long Beach days. If you and your family want a relaxing weekend right by the beach. This is the place to do it.

So Much Better Than A Hotel Stay!

Very cute house. Lots of steps, Closet in Master is locked as an “owner closet” Which is really inconvenient. Especially for two 76 year olds,. Kitchen is well equipped. Inside was very clean and tidy. Outside needs some grooming. Leaves need to be blown out of the drive and patio area. Would stay there again.

comfortable, quiet home near the beach

We had a thoroughly enjoyable stay at this house. It is secluded in a very quiet cul-de-sac and surrounded by trees. The trees provide shade all day long. It's less than a 5 minute walk from the beach with a public beach access point that's perfectly placed. The interior of the home is clean and furnished with quality furniture and a full kitchen. There were pleanty of clean linens and towels. We were a family of 4 and felt very comfortable in this house. We were surprised by the snack basket and basic items like trash bags and kitchen supplies. We had to buy very few supplies. There ae plenty of good restaurants nearby. I loved having coffee on the balcony each morning. Saw deer the first day there! We'll be back! Thanks!
