Nice place/bad weather

It was a nice little area. The house was clean and well stocked with everything we needed. Becky, the owner kept in contact with us. The weather was horrible, however, we found the Salty Turtle and had a great time. It is a small island area, but there are plenty of places to eat that were amazing. The people were all very friendly.

Just Book It!

Our stay at Surf’s Up was unreal! The location and views were second to none and it was literally the cleanest beach house ever. It being only a few steps to the beach was especially convenient for my 79 year old mother-in-law. When we weren’t on the beach, we enjoyed sitting on the deck where we could watch the sunrise, dolphins and pelicans. The location of the outdoor shower made it easy to keep the house clean. The owner, Becky, is welcoming and makes herself available to you should you have questions or need anything. This was our first time visiting Topsail Island so we asked her for recommendations ahead of time - her list of restaurants and the Karen Beasley Sea Turtle Rescue & Rehabilitation Center did not disappoint. If you’re looking to stay at the cleanest oceanfront home on Topsail Island that will accommodate 6 people, look no further…just book it!

DOESN'T GET ANY BETTER (-:

Being right on the beach in a house that is a stand-alone doesn't get better. The house is just so cute and perfectly decorated. The deck is a nice size and wraps around from the back to the side of the house. Best sleeping beds ever. Usually we can't wait to get back to our bed. In this case, we wish we were back in the bed at Surf's Up. The air conditioning is phenomenal. It kept the place extremely comfortable while the thermostat was set at 76. That's remarkable! Becky is GREAT!!! If you have a question about anything, she's there for you. This is truly a home-away-from-home except with the luxury of the ocean as your backyard.

Wonderful vacation

This is our 4th trip to Surfs Up, has never failed to deliver everything as described in listing. Becky is the nicest and easiest person to deal with on any problem or issues that may come up. We love this cottage, from cleanliness to comfort. Great layout with walls of windows to enjoy the ocean views. Our very favorite is large covered porch where we sit frequently watching the water and beach or having morning coffee, and eat lunch. We highly recommend this property!! Hope to return next year.
