Weekend getaway
Communication with the host was 5 stars within minutes of booking. Even when I made a mistake in booking, he was quick to offer a solution to make our weekend plans seamless and enjoyable. The arrival directions were spot on and easy to follow. The house is perfectly located- you get a peek at the ocean, but are just far enough away to enjoy the quiet neighborhood. Stores and restaurants are walking distance. The house was meticulously cleaned and had every kitchen and bathroom item we needed. They even had beach towels and chairs for our use. The bed was super comfortable. All the comforts of home made this rental a great spot for the weekend. We will definitely return!

Great place for a couple and a few kids
We enjoyed the stay, the streets are a little narrow so it made parking the boat a tiny bit challenging. We will stay there again

Comfortable Little Vacation House
My son & I rented the house to be close to my other son & family who were staying 2 blocks away. The house was great for just the 2 of us.My son slept on the sleeper sofa. The location was nice & easily accessible to the beach. The kitchen had adequate accessories needed to make quick meals.

Easy Stay
The stay was lovely for a quick beach weekend and a work from home day. Property was the perfect size for my partner and I, and our small-medium sized dog. Two notes: there were small ants in the bathroom, and the AC never got cold (really never below 74, sometimes as high as 79). But overall, great stay!

The house is small, cozy, and very clean and well maintained. I loved how close it is to Surfside Jetty so i could go fishing after work. Excellent place for couples or a small family.

Wonderful stay!
We truly enjoyed our week at Surfside in the house. It was relaxing and peaceful. Short walk to the pier and ocean. It was fun to get up in the morning and step out to the roaring ocean and beautiful sunrise.

Great weekend at Surfside
Little house was adorable; very close to the jetties…we were able to see some ships, which was fun for the small children. The owners were very accommodating. We always enjoy coming to Surfside. Had a great weekend at the beach.

Just What We Wanted
Cozy, quiet, and comfortable which was just what we wanted. The cottage was easily accessible from the main Hwy and had easy access to food, sightseeing, and adventure. We can’t give a rating on the nearby beach since it was off season and kinda chilly.

Perfect Stay
Most excellent cozy house for relaxation and rest. Had everything my wife and I needed to recover between her appointments at MD Anderson. Preparing meals in the well equipped kitchen was so much better than fast food. Lotta coffee! Lol! Walked to the beach, swam, watched birds, ships and fishermen. The ocean was beautiful. Felt safe and slept well. Couldn’t be happier. Owner was gracious and responded immediately. Thank you!
