Property Description:
Welcome to Surf Daze, your chill coastal escape with just the right mix of vintage vibes and modern fun. Tucked along the calm waters of Archer’s Creek, this split-level getaway has space to spread out, places to hang out, and all the extras you didn’t know you needed.

The main home features three comfortable bedrooms and three full bathrooms, while the on-site tiny home adds a fourth bedroom for the coolest kind of additional space. Downstairs, the garage hangout is ready for rainy days or tournament nights—ping pong, big-screen TV, and its own A/C mini split. Outside, you’ll find a private pool with loungers, a completely enclosed outdoor bathroom, a hammock for lazy afternoons, and your own fire pit for s’mores under the stars.

Grab a kayak or paddleboard and cruise the creek—or load up the included golf cart and head just mins. away to beach access with golf cart parking.

With a supplied kitchen, both Keurig and full pot coffee makers, a washer and dryer, and fresh linens ready for you, Surf Daze makes it painless to slip into vacation mode.

Let the daze begin.

How to find the best Crystal Coast rental home experience:

Cost saving strategies:

Summer months are the most expensive season in the Crystal Coast area. To book the largest rental within your budget, we strongly suggest booking in Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at Crystal Coast restaurants, beaches, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Crystal Coast vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
Property management companies sometimes offer discounts for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your family.
Property management companies typically offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally costs 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
Look for your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local information, visitor guides have coupons for local accommodations, tours and attractions.

Narrow your rental Search:

Begin by choosing your trip dates and a budget.
Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. Surf Daze: Waterfront Pool House + Tiny Home & Golf Cart has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts is commonly available on booking websites. If they are not listed, reach out to the host before reserving the rental. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull out couches in living rooms.
Looking for specific amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters.
Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
Some rentals allow pets, and some don't. Acceptable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the property manager about pets before booking.

Know before you go:

Be sure you get the host's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home.
Record any damages to the rental upon arrival, and immediately send them to the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are useful if a dispute is filed.
Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are a great source for finding the best local attractions.
Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can typically help. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
Lock your rental property while you're away! Don't let thieves ruin your trip.
Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the rental to confirm you've collected all personal items. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
Did your family have a fantastic vacation? Most rental home management companies make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was out of order and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
