OCEANFRONT! Contemporary. Private Beach Access.

The perfect place for some peaceful R&R with private beach access! Our beach is never crowded — even in summer; this area is sparsely populated with just one row of houses (& adjacent homes aren't rentals). Contemporary décor. Unobstructed ocean views. Private hot outdoor shower. Home is updated on an ongoing basis. Always something new... :) Note: Airbnb is shifting all fees to hosts in fall 26 & thus asking hosts to raise nightly rates. Apologies, but we don't get the extra money — they do.

We're John and Kaley, the family who fell for this exact stretch of Surf City and keep this home so yours feels easy from the second you walk in. Three sundecks, a hot tub, private beach access off the back deck, and the pier and ice cream a short walk away. Here's what's waiting for you:
