About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Across the street from the beach!! 4/3 with Spectacular views & ELEVATOR!

Welcome to Driftwood Den... your fabulous vacation getaway. Steps from the sound and right across the street is direct beach access. Feast your eyes on the panoramic views from almost every window. Fishing and canoe rentals in your own back yard.

The kids can be entertained by the chalkboard wall while you easily unpack using the elevator. Please be patient with the elevator, it is residential so it is much slower than commercial types, wait for the unlock click before trying to open the door and also both doors have to be completely closed after entering and after exiting in order for it to work property. Weight limit is 950 pounds. PLEASE do not let children play on the elevator or ride without supervision.

The house features a reverse floor plan with 4 outdoor decks.

***Please note the outdoor hammock swings and the porch swing in the photos are no longer a part of the property because of the rusting chains and guest liability.*****

The second floor offers the Primary Suite with a king bed and full bathroom, 1 queen bedroom and one room with two twin beds, shared bathroom between those rooms. The third floor features an open floor plan fully equipped kitchen and living room area and additional bedroom with queen bed and full bathroom.

All four bedrooms and the living room include newer flat screen ROKU tvs with Spectrum cable.

4 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms
Maximum Occupancy: 8 people,

Great getaway vacation rental, not a party house. Primary guest over the age of 25 welcome
It’s a quiet street where most of the neighbors live full time so they appreciate it staying that way & call me when that is not the case.


LINENS (bed sheets & bath towels) provided at no extra charge. Bring your own beach towels & equipment.

For a normal weekend stay, there are more than enough supplies at the home to not have to immediately buy soaps, paper towels, toilet paper, trash bags & detergents, but as the stay lengthens you may need to buy additional items.

Central heat and air, ceiling fans.


****NO PETS ALLOWED*** (Right to cancel and apply $500 fee if pets are discovered on property)

***NO SMOKING***

No minimum night stay but cleaning fee stays the same because a professional cleaning crew still has to go in there and clean the same no matter how many days stayed.

FEES:
Taxes (NC Sales Tax 6.75% and 6% Local Accommodation Tax)

Check In: at 4:00 PM
Check Out PROMPTLY at : 10:00AM

On departure please load and start dishwasher with dirty dishes. Also load and start washing machine with used towels, please use bleach. Do NOT strip beds, cleaning personnel will do that, things go missing when guests do it. Remove all garbage & food from the house and put in outside bins. The cleaning charge is exactly what it cost me to have the home professionally sanitized and to wash the linens...it's not me cleaning it, like other homeowners may choose to do. If for some reason you run into a situation where the home is not cleaned when you arrive, please call me immediately so I can try to make it right.

Trash/Recycle days are Wednesdays year round. In addition, during peak season May-October trash ONLY is picked up on Saturday too. Please put trash bins by the main road the night before so they can be picked up the next morning. Please see the refrigerator for complete instructions about the trash and check out procedures.

**There are no beach chairs or equipment available so please bring your own.** I say this as a disclosure, but you may find some chairs & boards there in the driveway under the home which you are more than welcome to use, but it they tend to go missing, so I can't promise they will be there during your stay.

I look forward to welcoming you to Driftwood Den. The beach has always been my family's special place for reconnecting and restoration. I hope that you will have the opportunity to create special memories with your loved ones during your stay. Unwind, relax and be blessed!

Weekend getaway

My family and I had an anniversary party in Surf City to attend and needed somewhere that would sleep 6-7 and with an elevator. This beautiful place fit the bill and was located close to the venue as well. It’s also right across the street from the beach access. The kitchen is open to the family room and has wonderful views of the marsh. The master bedroom was roomy and we all loved the fact that each bedroom had a small sound machine. Danielle was responsive and helpful. We will definitely stay here again the next time we plan a trip to Surf City and highly recommend!

Family fun

My family thouroughly enjoyed our mini vacation at Driftwood Den. The house was amazing with all the essentials needed especially the cookware. Although the weather was a little rainy, we were able to visit the Missle Musuem and The Karen Beasley Turtle Rehabilitation Center. My famil would definitely book this home again if the need arises. Thank you for opening ths home to us.

Family vacation

We loved the property. I rent somewhere on the island every year and this house was the cleanest I’ve ever seen. It is very comfortable and a short walk to the beach access. My one and only complaint, is that the kitchen needs new frying pans. Other than that I highly recommend this property.

Very nice house with plenty of room. Great location near beach access and close to restaurants and shops.
