High Tide
Very enjoyable beach experience! The beach house was very comfortable - beds were great! Lots of amenities- climate adjustable - deck was lovely - but a few weathered boards need to be nailed down. Sunrise was wonderful. The upper deck door was difficult to unlock and then difficult to relock- due to rusting of the lock. Probably an easy fix. The top deck is a great place to view the beach and relax and also shaded the large lower deck! Highly recommend this Beach House!

We invite you to kick off your work shoes and nestle your toes in the warm water and soft sand of Surfside Beach.
