4 Br Private Vacation Home Vacation Rental In Surf City, North Carolina

Quiet respites at the beach are perfect for rest and relaxation. At Once Upon a Tide, a nicely decorated four bedroom, 3 ½ bath dog friendly town home located on a dead-end street in Surf City, you can find such a place. Enjoy the sun deck with ocean views or relax with a good book under the covered deck on the 1st floor. Either way, this town home will help recharge the soul.

The open living room, dining area and kitchen are well lit and brightly decorated. The sun streams in through the large windows and doors, leading out to a street side oceanview sundeck.
