Holiday rentals with a fire pit in Surf City

Just got home from our stay at Liquid State and WOW - we have found our favorite beach house in Surf City!! - The home is beautiful, comfortable and equipped with everything you need…and more. - The backyard is an oasis with amazing pool, hot tub and grass for your pup. - The location is perfect - on a quiet street, but only a few minutes walk to the beach, sound and a few min drive to a ton of great restaurants/shops. - Bridget was an incredible host and clearly has a passion for hospitality! If you are considering this home, stop hesitating and book it!!!

One of the best Airbnb’s I have stayed at. The close proximity to the beach and having a pool at the house was very ideal for our large group. The communication with Mike and Makeba was top notch!

Amazing stay if you have kids. Huge and clean backyard and beautiful property. Easy drive to local parks and the beach. Home was wonderful and had plenty of room. Overall an amazing place to stay and we plan to book again next year.

Our family hadn’t all been together in over 8 years—the last time was for our father’s funeral. This trip was the first time we reunited simply to enjoy each other’s company, and The Kraken was the perfect place for it. The home was beautiful, clean, and so thoughtfully designed. Every room suited someone in our family, and my husband and I especially loved the cedarwood bedroom on the first floor—it smelled amazing and felt like a true retreat. The deck and backyard were our favorite hangouts, and the easy water access made for nonstop fun. The hosts provided everything we needed—including water toys for both adults and kids, which our grandbaby especially enjoyed. The golf cart was a great bonus, and the location made exploring easy. Melissa and Shawn were incredible hosts—friendly, responsive, and so helpful from start to finish. They truly deserve their 5-star rating. This home gave us the chance to reconnect, laugh, and create joyful new memories. We’ll never forget it. Than you !

The view of the ocean was absolutely stunning—truly the kind of view you could stare at for hours. The deck was perfect for morning coffee, sunset watching, and everything in between. Inside, the place was clean, cozy, and thoughtfully put together to make us feel right at home. Emily was a fantastic host—responsive, kind, and quick to address any issues that came up. She genuinely cared about our comfort and even went above and beyond to compensate us for a minor inconvenience, which we really appreciated. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful, beautiful escape with top-notch hospitality!

We loved our stay at Bird Lane! It was clean, beautifully decorated, and matched the description perfectly. We easily walked to a restaurant and bar and the beach walk is less than 5 min. Our host communicated so well, addressed a couple questions instantly, and let us know with plenty of notice about a service visit to allow us to plan accordingly. Bonus points for the nugget ice maker!! Book now, you won’t regret it!

beautifully kept property, nice and private, relaxing, the perfect get away from the hustle and bustle.

We had an amazing time at Carolyn’s place!! The proximity to the beach can’t be beat🏖️☀️the house was great, lots of space and everwe could need to relax after a day at the beach! Can’t wait to come back

This place is literally beachfront. Beautiful views for sunrise and sunset!

This was the perfect romantic getaway for my wife’s birthday! We enjoyed everything about this beautiful, quaint location.

We loved the fenced in porch with comfy beach chairs to unwind at night. The backyard was perfect for our dog to stretch his leg and do is business. We appreciated having access to the bikes, beach chairs and all the fun extras left for us to use. Comfy bed and super quiet neighborhood was just what we needed. We would recommend and plan on coming back ❤️

We had such a wonderful time at Mary Margaret's place! Being steps from the beach was incredibly convenient, making it so easy to enjoy the sun and sand whenever we wanted. We also really appreciated having a cool bar with great drink specials and live music just around the corner. The apartment itself has such a lovely bohemian beach feel, it's really well designed and so comfortable. We're definitely hoping to come back soon!

Outstanding location. Easy access to Topsail and Wilmington. Beautiful layout and will return. Everything you needed or possibly wanted was there. Extremely friendly.

We loved our stay here! The room is actually bigger than it looked in the photos. There are many great restaurants and breweries within walking distance. The neighborhood is quiet and safe.

West place was great! We loved the private balcony amenities and how close it was to Kure beach and downtown! So much to do and such a fun stay. It was the perfect cozy beach getaway!

We had such an amazing time at River Retreat! Felt very safe and comfortable right at home truly. It unfortunately was raining so bad one of the days but that didn’t stop us we still had a great time, make sure you enjoy that sunset on the balcony or catch the sunrise, it’s worth it! :)

Very friendly, informative and easy to communicate with. Cabin was clean and just what we needed. Will book again when in the area!

It is always a pleasure to stay at this beautiful location and unique home. Clean,quiet and everything needed to enjoy yourself.

Such a charming little spot! My kid loved the loft bed and hammocks. Very friendly atmosphere. Very responsive, friendly, and helpful host.

This was a wonderful place to stay. It was pristine, homey, and peaceful. Heidi was very friendly, responding to any questions, providing a tour upon arrival, showing her garden and chickens. I hope to return whenever we're in the area again. I highly recommend this beautiful home!

Cozy Cabin was perfect for our family. Very clean and nice place. We used the Get Away house as well that was available during our stay. It was the perfect set up. And the fenced in back yard was very nice. We will return in the future for a future stay.

The accommodations were quaint and the property was peaceful and lovely. Our stay was comfortable and perfect for our needs. Hosts were nice and very responsive in their communication. Sparrows Nest is convenient to grocery stores, fuel stations, and a great Mexican restaurant and pizza place! I only wish we had more time to explore the mill pond and make use of the amenities including the kayaks; we stayed here where it was convenient to boating access to join a special group for a PWC trip on the Cape Fear River. It was overall a very nice weekend celebrating our 21st wedding anniversary! Memories made! We will recommend this place to others and will book again in the future.

Great location - walking distance to shops, restaurants, beach, but very peaceful. Great place - fenced in yard for the dog, well equipped kitchen, lots of space for people to hang out, comfortable beds. This is our second time staying and we hope to be be back.

Cute cabin surrounded by a beautiful property. Very peaceful. There is a second cabin on the property next to each other; the only thing I would say is the garage door/window does not provide much privacy. If you have neighbors in the other cabin you can see right in. Maybe a tint the window would be helpful. Otherwise, the cabin is adorable and very clean. There is a cute porch to sit on and a fire pit!
