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 retreat has space to spread out, places to hang out, and all the extras you didn’t know you needed.

The main house features three comfy bedrooms and three full bathrooms, while the on-site tiny home adds a fourth bedroom for the coolest kind of bonus 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 fully 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 minutes away to beach access with golf cart parking.

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

Let the daze begin.

We all had a wonderful time here celebrating my Marine son’s birthday for a whole week! Everyone loved the pool and the rec area. My adult kids got a chance to kayak and we all enjoyed the fire pit. The home is beautiful. Thank you!

Great location! Loved the fenced in backyard area for our dog. Dock was a highlight for bird watching… Liked the character of the house- old school wood paneling, wooden ski decor. Lots of sunlight. We biked and walked a lot, so we didnt use the golf cart.

The home was beautiful, very clean and inviting. It is hard to find these qualities in a pet friendly rental. The advertisement of the home was spot on, and I could not have asked for a better host than Melissa...over all a 10 out of 10 experience!! I would high recommend this rental.
