Every part of our stay at Surfs Up was wonderful. The house is huge and the location is perfect. We had a group of 7 adults and everyone was very comfortable. There is plenty of privacy and the house was sparkling clean. Its a two minute walk to the beach and downtown restaurants. Communication with host was very easy. We can't wait to stay here again. Highly recommended.

Great room, dining room n covered front porch was a treat as we had many friends n families come by n say hello. We appreciated beach gear, chairs, n bikes.

Absolutely Perfect Beach Rental

We were very lucky to find this short term rental on Sullivans Island because there are few due to local ordanances. Absolutely perfect location being only a block from the beach, a block from local restaurants and a block from pickleball courts (if you bring your own net). The house is huge and the five BR very private behind double doors to the living areas.

Perfect location

We stayed here for a week with six adults total. The house was perfect for a bigger group. Multiple bedrooms and bathrooms to choose from and they were all spread out to allow for privacy. We absolutely loved being so close to the beach and also being able to walk to the many wonderful restaurants on Sullivan's Island. The owner, Davis, checked in with us the first night to make sure we had everything we needed and he would respond quickly if we had questions. I would definitely recommend this house.

Felt like our home at the beach (wish!)

Love a classic beach house and this one was in a perfect location, easy walk one way to the beach or the other way to wonderful restaurants. Nice updated bathrooms and spacious bedrooms, and a great dining room. We spent a lot of time on the screened-in porch, and my husband had his own tv room downstairs. We all loved the ping pong table! Owner was quick to help with one problem we had moving in. Highly recommend for a family vacation

Superb location

Our family of 4 adults and one 5 year old spent a week at this house on Sullivans Island. The location was terrific - short walk to huge beach and a couple blocks to many good restaurants. The living quarters on second floor were good and bathrooms were fine.In fact, the master bathroom looks like it has been newly updated with new shower.. The screened porch on second floor was great. That said, the house was built in the 1930s so it is definitely a beach house with old woodwork that has not been refinished and old kitchen with plenty of cooking supplies but beat up appearance. If you are a neatnik this property might bother you,but if you know you are getting a rustic beach house you will enjoy the room and proximity to beach and "town". We did not use the downstairs at all.

Vintage beach home

The property is 100 yrs old but clean with everything you need. It appears that it’s a work in progress as all but one bathroom have been nicely updated. And there’s a really nice outdoor shower that’s not in the listing that my husband enjoyed. The screened in front porch is comfortable for hanging out. It would be nice to have a table there for dining. The bureaus are antique and some drawers don’t easily pull out and it looks like some curtains have been changed out as old hardware is still visible. The kitchen met our needs and the beds were comfortable. The rooms are all separated so there’s lots of privacy. Finally, Edgar was great to deal with as he was immediately responsive to any questions we had.
