A great family vacation, past renters have had three generations stay at once
We had a lovely family gathering at Rauhul's beach house. The house was very clean and well stocked. Access to the house was seamless. It's on a quiet part of the island but easily accessible to shopping and restaurants. Tennis and pickle ball courts a nearby too. We had easy access to he beach and the views are spectacular. We really enjoyed eating dinner on he deck and I loved some quite time on the second floor deck. We are planning on returning next summer.
Stayed July, 2024
2024 was our 25th rental season. We have some fall weeks left in 2024 and 2025 is booking fast with Only June 14th available through mid August 2025. 2024 renters have 30 days after stay to return the next year. Owner Joe S
We are about to embark on our 3rd year in a row at this property. The owner Joe is available and great with his communication. The house is in a great location and has beautiful views of the beach and ocean. We fly in from Arizona for a week here every summer and as long as Joe remains the owner we will remain customers.

Thank you for staying again in 2024. I sent your lease out for 2025.
We had a great time, the house was exactly as shared on the site and the beach/ocean view is much better then expected. The access to the beach directly from the house was fantastic. We were a multi generation group and no issues at all. Joe was a very attentive host and we would definitely come back.... Thank u Joe!
Stayed September, 2022
Thank you for staying with us and sharing what you thought of the house. Hope you return in 2023
Our family really enjoyed this property, Joe was fantastic to work with from start to finish, never once did I have a concern. Lovely place and well kept, you can really tell they upgrade when they can. This place had everything we needed, a well stocked kitchen, and all rooms were clean. Very kid friendly as well. Joe quickly answered any questions we had. We all miss the views! Would highly recommend.

Thank you for staying with us and sharing with us your thoughts on the house. Happy you will be back with us in 2023
We stayed at the home in early June and had a fantastic experience. The home was fully stocked with virtually everything we needed, right down to laundry detergent! The rooms were cozy and comfortable, and the view on the deck overlooking the ocean was breathtaking! The location in Surf City was just the perfect spot for quick access anywhere on the island. The private walkway out to the beach was just the icing on the cake. A great vacation - highly recommend this rental!

This was our second year renting this property having discovered it for 2020. It is perfect, very big, beautiful location and set up where the main living area overlooks the ocean. The morning sunrises are sublime. Joe, the owner, has the property kept very clean and even takes the extra expense to have it sprayed for COVID ensuring all is sanitary inside. He is always accessible for inquiries and assistance should the need arise. The private access to the beach in front is wonderful! I can not say enough positive things about this gem.
Stayed August, 2021
This was our 4th year renting this perfectly situated ocean front house in Surf City - and we have already reserved our week for a 5th stay in 2022. The house is very equipped with furnishings, beach chairs, and a fully stocked kitchen for cooking. Easy walk to mini golf, ice cream, shops and restaurants.
