Our stay at Poppy’s Place Beach House in Surf City was absolutely wonderful! From the moment we arrived, everything was spotless and welcoming. The home is not only immaculate but also thoughtfully designed with every detail you could need for a relaxing getaway.We spent the week enjoying the beach, exploring Surf City and Topsail, and coming “home” each evening to the most peaceful, comfortable space. The kitchen was perfectly stocked, the beds were cozy, and every touch—from the décor to the little amenities—made it clear how much care and love went into this home.We left feeling refreshed, grateful, and already dreaming about coming back. Thank you for sharing your lovely beach house with us—it truly made our vacation special. — Tabitha & Jerry

Surf City visit

My wife and I had to make a trip on short notice for a funeral and we were very fortunate to be able to stay here. The vibe of Surf City is very relaxed and Amber’s house was a perfect place to come back to at the end of the day. It was very clean and the location was great for walking on the beach or going into town. Thank you very much, Amber, for your hospitality and the great value staying at your house provides.

Wonderful Stay!

We had a great time at Poppy’s Place. Very clean and has all the basic amenities to include the Keurig coffee maker. Gas grill was great for making a hot dog lunch for the grandkids. Lots of beach chairs and items in the garage. Beach access 10 is the closest but does have stairs. Would stay here again. Great communication as well with Amber.

We loved Poppys Place!

Poppys Place is a beautiful home that was set up perfectly for two couples and two kiddos (although four kiddos would have also fit just as nicely). It is a beautiful home, very clean, and close to the beach as well as many fun areas, stores and places to eat. The owner was kind and responsive as well. We really loved our stay!

Fantastic Surf City Stay!

Such an amazing stay at Poppy’s Place, a home away from home. Beach was a short 2 minute walk from the house. Host was brilliant and super responsive, even bought us an electric kettle so we could have our British tea. Highly recommend and would love to stay again!
