House is close to everything that you need and literally just a walk across the street to public beach access. We really enjoyed our stay.

This house was absolutely wonderful. It was very nice abd clean when we arrived. Plenty of room for me, my husband, our daughter and 3 grown sons. The view of the ocean was amazing. We had everything we needed to make our stay here like home. We would definitely love to stay here again!!

This beach cabin was really dirty. It’s a shame because it’s close to the beach. Both from and back decks need replacing.

We loved the location. The kitchen was fine. The 2nd bedroom bed was horrible and the twin bed mattress was a box spring. Living room couch needed to be replaced.

Great location, floors and counters clean, kitchen clean, day 2 - I saw and took pictures of roaches in the kitchen. I called VRBO or Vacassa and was told someone would be there ASAP - noone showed or contacted me - I was in this house for 5 nights. We saw cockroaches in the kitchen and one in the master bathroom..... Needless to say I won't stay at this house again.

Before arriving to our vacation, I had a few questions and the staff was very helpful and quick at responding. This house was the perfect location, it was so close to the beach and had a pretty view from the porch. But we discovered the dishes were left in the dishwasher, there were things still in the dryer. We were stuck smelling all the trash in the trash cans from the previous renters for our 6 day stay. We also found live cockroaches in the kitchen, every single night and the pots and pans weren’t very clean.

This is the worst vacation experience my family has ever had and the lack of customer service from Vacasa is astonishing. We reached out to the local and corporate contacts for help and no one stepped up to help. We had to deal with mice/rat poop after they ate our bread and other typical food items on the counter. While eating at the dinner table cockroaches crawled across the table. There are 2x4’s and plywood in place of cabinets, towel hangers are falling off the wall, there were numerous light bulbs out making visibility difficult. We left the home in fear of sickness and our son’s allergies. Do not stay here, it’s terrible the house’s condition is so bad as the location to the beach is good.

The location of the property was the only positive feedback which there are several other homes with a good location. There was very little hospitality felt from this stay. The kitchen was not at all updated, the temperature on the stove was either on or off so all of our food burned, the kitchen tools were all from dollar general, the broom we were provided to clean with was snapped in half where you had to bevcareful of the jagged metal. Overall my assessment of this property is that the owners use this purely for an investment and are not concerned with the comfort of their paying customers.

The house had many good and not so good features. First, the location was great. It is super close to the bridge and restaurants, and has a nice ocean view from the front of the home. The public beach access is right in front of the home, which was very convenient. However, the beach itself right there is very shallow, there is practically no sand available at high tide, so walking and fishing in the area had to be planned with the tide schedule. This is no one's fault, but future renters should have this information. The home is plenty roomy and the furnishings were comfortable. The issues we had with this home were all related to the maintenance and cleanliness, and this isn't the home's fault. If the property management team and owner can address these for future rentals, it will be a great place to stay.

We originally booked this through a local reality company and then it switched to Vacasa managing the property. We had poor customer service and miscommunication from Vacasa. The location of the property is great. However, some things need updated and lots routine renter upkeep was needed. The house was relatively clean but the showers did not seem to be cleaned when we arrived. There were only two coffee cups and one wine glass. The main couch looks like it need to be cleaned or replaced. We put a blanket that we brought over the couch the whole trip. With the location of the home, we do think that the home has potential; however, we would not pick to stay at this home again when we come back to Surf City or would not book a property managed by Vacasa.
