Caisson Cottage - Cozy Home a Short Walk to the Beach

Relax with the family in this cozy cottage at the center of Surfside Beach, TX. Comb the beach for shells, bird-watch and take in the slow-roll of Island Life as you get to know this quaint little beach town. Your family will have what they need with a fully-equipped kitchen, sectional to veg out on, and two full bathrooms. The open layout of this home makes family time seem natural and easy. This home is elevated like all the homes in Surfside and requires access up a flight of stairs.

Lacking some amenities, especially outdoors

Great location,very clean. Disappointed there wasnt any information on local attractions and resturaunts. Limited outdoor seating, two wood chairs without cushions. No covered area to sit. No outdoor dining area. Basic kitchen amenities but no baking pans (cookie sheets, etc). Charcoal grill, no charcoal or tinfoil so we did not use grill. Owner did respond quickly to issue with front door (would not open all the way because floor/doorway warped or settled) but unable to resolve by just "pushing door all the way open".charcoal or tine foil so did not use

Perfect Cottage

This cottage was perfect for our group. My husband & I stayed 7 days & my son, his fiancé & my 5 year old granddaughter came down just for the first weekend. There was a perfect amount of space, everything we needed, close to stores & restaurants and right between the pedestrian beach & the jetty.

We had a great time. We had a problem with toilet and with tub being stopped up. We reported it immediately. We got taken care immediately. The only complaint was a water hole that was a breeding ground for mosquitoes.

Cute beach house close to the beach

My fiancé, son, and daughter stayed at this super cute beach house for two nights. House was exactly as described, which fit our needs exactly - convenient location, and comfy furnishings. Quiet, serene neighborhood that made having my morning coffee on the patio a dream - who wouldn't enjoy starting their day to the sounds of the gulf?! Next time we visit Surfside, we will definitely lookto rent this house again!
