Amazing house!
The Coast is Clear was the perfect location for our family vacation. The house was very clean and well appointed. We appreciated the extras like the beach chairs and toys. And, there were plenty of games and puzzles for the day it rained. The kitchen had all of the comforts of home including a Keurig and an Instant Pot. However, the best thing about this place is the location and the views which can't be beat! We easily walked to the pier and Surf City restaurants. We'll be back!
