Island House A : Stylish Updated Townhome - Steps to the Beach w/ Pool!

Message us for information regarding monthly winter rates.
Recently updated! Stylish & spacious 2 bedroom raised beach-house just steps from the beach.
We also own 2 units next door, you can see that unit at VRBO #1160468 or #2062598.
Enjoy the beach life like a local on one of the 2 decks. Sip your morning coffee on the front deck while you watch the sun rise over Surfside beach. In the evening, enjoy a glass of wine while you bbq your favorite road kill on the back deck and watch the sunset. Island House is also just a short (2 block) walk to Surfside Drive where you'll find restaurants, bars, a fishing pier, a scenic park, a dog park, and even a library. We've tried to think of everything you might need -- before you even know you need it, like new Tempur-pedic mattresses, 1500 thread count linens, free super-fast Wifi, & USB charging ports throughout the house When you arrive, you can park right underneath your home-away-from-home. There's space for 2 cars in front and additional parking in back if needed. As you walk into your beach retreat you'll find an updated kitchen with granite counter tops and tile backsplash. It's fully stocked and ready for your stay. Also on the 1st floor there's a comfortable living area, dining area, a half bathroom, and a washer and dryer. The dining area seats 4 around the table plus 3 more seats at the kitchen peninsula. There is also a plush seating area on the front deck which seats 4/5. The living room has plenty of seating as well as streaming TV with hundreds of channels and WiFi. There are two decks for lounging. The front deck is covered and is a perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee. The back deck is open, overlooks the pool and contains a gas grill for all your bbq needs. Right behind the back deck is a fenced in yard with a pool. The pool is shared by only 4 units of the Island House so you never have to worry about crowds. The two bedrooms are located upstairs, one on either end with a hallway and bathroom in between. Each bedroom contains a queen bed with super comfortable memory foam mattresses, a dresser, & closets. We've also put several USB charging stations throughout the house. It's just a 60 second walk to beautiful Surfside Beach. Check the storage shed in the carport for beach chairs, boogie boards and other beach gear. Want even more of the "local" experience? We have a 4 person electric golf cart available to rent.

Located on Dogwood Dr right off of 3rd Ave North, 1 1/2 blocks from the Beach and 2 1/2 blocks from Surfside Drive (restaurants, bar, & pier).

About the host

Hosted by Bob Thomas

We're Bob and Melissa and we've been married over 25 years. After years of beach vacations, we decided to finally buy a home at the beach and we love it. We bring a combined 50+ years of experience in the hospitality industry. Our goal is to bring the absolute best of what we've learned over the years and make your stay amazing!

Why they chose this property

We love the family atmosphere of Surfside beach! It's a fantastic white sand beach without all the high-rise "condo-tels" (and crowds) of the commercial sections just a few miles north. We purchased Island House because of all the properties we looked at, Island House just had a unique feel and vibe that we didn't find anywhere else in Surfside.

What makes this property unique

Just a 60 second walk to one of the widest sections of beach in the Grand strand. Many of the public access points have restrooms (major bonus), and none of the crowds you have to fight at other beaches!
