SOME KIND WORDS FROM OUR GUESTS:
"Jamie’s place is amazing. The location is perfect. The view is perfect. The place is very clean and well-maintained. Both Jamie and the property manager are extremely helpful and responsive. Will definitely come back." Michael

"This place is awesome, Jamie provided everything we could need, it was immaculately clean, the location is unbelievable. The layout of the house was perfect for us and our needs, and it was very well furnished and decorated. We have rented beach houses on topsail every year for nearly a decade now and Jamie’s was the best so far. 5/5 in all categories, we would definitely stay here again." -Nick

"Jamie’s place was absolutely gorgeous! The interior was beautifully decorated, crisp, and clean. Watching the sunrise over the beach from the hot tub was an absolute dream. Everything exceeded my expectations. I had a very short trip, but enjoyed every minute!" Zoe

--THE LOCATION--
Our reviews can attest to the convenience and beauty of the location. The house is located in the heart of Surf City right over the bridge. It is walkable to all the best shops and restaurants in Surf City as well as adjacent to Surf City pier, open 24 hours for fishing and views. You can see the lights of the peer shining on the ocean from your private hot tub. Steps away is the best ice cream, tacos, and oceanfront restaurants in town!


--THE HOUSE--
Remodeled & furnished in 2021 with guest experience top of mind, Sweet Escape was designed to be your home away from home. The house is a reverse floorplan to really heighten your ocean view with bedrooms on the first 2 levels and kitchen/dining/main living area on 3rd. (*Guests will need to be comfortable with stairs as the house is 3 levels.) All beds are made up with linens for guest arrival. We also provide luggage racks, extra pillows, blankets, etc.

FIRST FLOOR
Walk in the front door to our large open living area, two bedrooms, full bathroom, and kitchenette. The couch turns into a queen sized sleeper sofa allowing a total of 8 guests to sleep on this level. We created the 1st floor to be the FUN ZONE for kids/teens with foosball, Hot Shot Basketball, along with game or movie nights.

Bedroom 1: Twin over Queen bed, dresser, nightstand, closet, wall-mounted TV

Bedroom 2: Triple twin bunks (for children only please)

Kitchenette: Microwave, oven, sink, fridge/freezer, extra storage

Laundry: 2 brand new (2023) stacked washer and dryer units (laundry soap/supplies provided)

THIRD FLOOR
Kitchen/Dining/Living Room: The third floor is a real show stopper with beautiful ocean views as far as the eye can see. Two sliders open to the deck allowing you to be as close to the ocean as possible while in the comfort of home. Our newly remodeled kitchen is as functional as it is beautiful and is well stocked with brand new appliances and everything you’ll need to make gourmet meals should you so desire. There are 6 barstools in addition to a table that seats 8-10 allowing your whole group to gather and enjoy a meal together while you soak in the views. A pantry provides extra storage as well as houses 2 high chairs.

Coffee: Wake up to our coffee bar which includes a Keurig and complimentary K-cups as well as drip coffee, and enjoy a peaceful morning watching the sunrise over the ocean from the deck.


--AMENITIES--

Baby Gear: We provide 2 pack n plays, 2 high chairs, as well as children's dishes/utensils. (We do not provide bedding/blankets for the pack n plays.)

--PETS--
Some pets do better than others on vacation. We are happy to consider your dog without a pet fee. If you would like to bring your dog please send us an inquiry telling us a little bit about him or her. We ask that he/she be well-trained and not go on beds or sofas as these fabrics are hard to remove fur from. We allow up to 2 dogs. We provide dog blankets for furniture.

--OTHER THINGS TO NOTE--
We recommend purchasing private traveler's insurance as we do not offer refunds for cancellations outside of our policy. Hurricane season runs from June 1st -November 30 in NC with most activity in September and October. Trip interruption insurance (travel insurance) is highly recommended during these months. If the island evacuates, then we would certainly refund.

Amazing ocean views in the middle of town

Perfect property for our mini family reunion. Gorgeous views of the ocean and pier, and literally steps away from everything Surf City has to offer. We enjoyed watching surfers and dolphins daily from the expansive third floor living area and deck. The local property manager, Christine, was friendly, helpful and extremely responsive. Highly recommend!

Oceanfront dream!

What a beautiful property and location. We had enough parking for 5 cars and once we parked them, we walked everywhere! The house accommodated our multiple families so well and we loved being steps from the beach. The beach itself was also well maintained and beautiful.

Perfect getaway

We recently had the pleasure of staying at The Sweet Escape, and I can’t recommend it highly enough. The property is conveniently located near shops and restaurants that are within walking distance. The beach house comes with all the amenities that one could ask for. The fully equipped kitchen made it easy to prepare family meals, and there is an outdoor grill to use for cookouts. The deck is furnished with lounge chairs as well as 4 tall chairs, so you have unobstructed views of the ocean. The house was exceptionally clean, the beds were comfortable, and all the linens were provided. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, we definitely will book the Sweet Escape again!!

Amazing family time

What a great way for extended family to be together and have fun. We ate walking distance in town, cooked one dinner, enjoyed the beach and pier, saw dolphins, spinner sharks, and spent Saturday watching the surf competition out our back door. We went to the Turtle rescue tour, and on an all you can eat oyster boat-ecology tour. Late September was a wonderful time to go. It wasn’t too hot or humid and being from Arizona we didn’t mind a few short showers. We highly recommend this beautiful home.
