Welcome to The Knotty Cottage, your fully furnished, 2023‑renovated Surf City hideaway. Built in 1981 and battle‑tested by every storm, this 3 bed, 3 bath gem blends vintage flair with modern ease. Hardwood floors flow through an open living, dining and bartop‑seating area where you'll spend more time laughing with friends than hunting for a charger. There is an open living‑dining‑bartop layout and retro‑cool kitchen appliances you'll actually use if you do decide to cook while on vacation. Two en‑suite bedrooms spoil you with spa‑style rain showers and sleek vanities; the third full bath gleams with fresh tile and modern fixtures. Step outside to your own outdoor playground: hammock swings for lazy afternoons, a rain or shine bar with ice‑maker and mini‑fridge on tap, plus ample space for your cornhole tournament. Park once and stroll to the beach, pier, restaurants and shops. The owners self‑managed rentals pulled in $71,000 in 2024 on this AirBnB Award Winning home, and insurance (flood, wind & hail, homeowners) stays under $5,000/year—so this cottage pays its own way. Salt air's calling—answer before it's too late.
