Best Week Ever

I wasn’t sure what to expect since I am from the Pacific Northwest & have a beach house on the Pacific Ocean, but to say I was pleasantly surprised is an understatement. House is amazing, great for families. Excellent location to the beach & Surf City. Great communication from owner & property manager. Had no issues to report everything was clean & in working order when we arrived. I would totally recommend this property to others. Thanks for sharing your beautiful home.

Comfortable Winter Getaway

Our family of 6 enjoyed felt welcomed into this home away from home. The beds were comfortable, the closeness to the beach couldn't be beat, and the house was very clean. We settled in for a week of dolphin watching, chilly beach walks, and lots of family dinners and games while gathered around the table. We enjoyed thrifting in Wilmington, touring the Battleship, and Flaming Amy's Burrito Barn. The hot tub was enjoyed most evenings and the decks and furniture were appreciated--we would happily recommend this home to future guests.

The property was very clean and location couldn't have been better. Communication leading up to and during the stay was excellent. The kids played on the beach all day and loved the outdoor shower and toys provided. The adults loved the multiple decks, hot tub, comfy beds and easy access to the beautiful beach. We can't wait for our next visit. 5 stars all around!

Outstanding Beach House!

This is our third time renting this charming beach house. The house is perfect! Incredible ocean views with a commute to the water in less than 30 seconds. We stayed with 2 families (4 adults and 5 children) and the size was perfect! You definitely get what you pay for. Christine is the best manager and will take care of anything you need. She was even willing to give us a late check out to have more time at the beach.

Wonderful property

We had an awesome stay. The property was ideally located and the communication was flawless. Very well appointed for home cooking if that's important to others and made it really easy with our 5 and 7 year old. Unfortunately the hot tub wasn't operational during our trip, but they had a tech there within an hour to try to get it running (bad part that had to be ordered). Highly recommend to others and I am sure we will be back.

About the host

Hosted by Katrina Noonan

Host profile image
In September of 2018 my husband and I celebrated our 20th Anniversary with a long weekend getaway to Surf City. We have 2 dogs and one had just completed his last rounds of chemo treatments so we were only willing to go somewhere that we could take our dogs with us. We had not been on vacation in 6 years because of our dogs special needs.
After spending 4 days on the beach we decided we needed a beach house. Both my husband and dogs were at home and relaxed at the beach. 2 Months later we purchased Dream Getaway.
2019 we opened Dream and really enjoyed sharing our home with guests.
A friend from work visited us at the beach and decided she would like to have a beach house as well so we told her we would keep an eye out for a nice house for her.
When 2306 became available we went and looked at it and told her about it. Jokingly I said something about really liking the house and how 4 of the bedrooms were oceanfront - next thing I know we are buying 2306 - Charm Getaway.

Why they chose this property

Why Surf City NC when we live in Maryland?
Surf City is the beach of my childhood. I spent my summers visiting my family in Hampstead NC (10 minutes away) and my days were spent playing on the beach under the pier with my siblings and cousins.
My Great Grandfather ran shrimp and oyster boats in the sound for a living. If you visit our home you will notice the oyster shells and pictures around the house. These all remind me of why we own this home.

We love this SPACIOUS single family oceanfront home! This part of the beach is so peaceful and the views are out of this world. The oceanfront hot tub is truly a dream come true!
Charm Getaway is named after my home town of Baltimore. Baltimores nickname is Charm City so this house is really our getaway from Baltimore.

What makes this property unique

We provide linens, towels, beach chairs, beach towels and a fully stocked kitchen.
In addition to our home which is enough - we also have the ability to provide additional services via our Hospitality Manager, who is just a text message away.
