We absolutely loved our stay! The house was beautiful, comfortable, and had all the amenities we needed. The pool was fantastic, and the location was perfect, just the right distance from the beach. Everything was clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully provided. We had a wonderful time and would definitely love to stay here again!

We had a great week at Summersalt. The house was the perfect size for 2 families with 5 younger kids between us. The location and beach access was a high point. It was great to have the pool to come back to after the beach. The house was stocked with plenty of beach gear like a wagon, chairs, toys etc and plenty of beach towels. Would stay here again for sure!

Great location! The house was fully stocked with everything we needed and more! Trudy responded to all my questions promptly. The house was actually bigger than expected. Usually, pictures in the listing can be misleading as to how big rooms are because of how the pictures are taken. However, when we arrived, we were surprised with how spacious it is.

Wonderful Family Experience

The Surf City property was clean, family friendly, and amazing. The proximity to the beach access was convenient and the kids enjoyed a lowkey afternoon and evening swim in the pool after spending the day on the beach. The property owners were great to deal with and we have already booked our stay next year.

The house has everything a family can need and even what they don't realize they need. It really helps with the chaos inherent to traveling with small kids. We love it and can't wait to come back!

Great Family get away!!!

This was the second time we stayed here and again we are so happy we did! The house has everything you need including bunk beds witch my kids loved. The pool is amazing. The house is located very close to a beach access and close to the shops and restaurants but far enough away you don't have to deal with any noise from them. The owners are amazing and extremely nice and helpful with anything you need.

Family Freindly, Relax Oriented

We had a very pleasant stay at the Summer Salt - The property was very well supplied with essentials for any activity from cooking to boogie boarding. The pool was a tremedous asset to help with coping with the heat. It provided a safe water experience for our 1 and 4 year old grandchildren.We had a wonderful week of relaxation and fun.
