The perfect stay
Beautifully appointed beach house with generous amenities. Loved the balcony views of the ocean and being able to walk to the water in a matter of minutes. Nice back courtyard with a fire pit for comfy warmth on a cool evening. Perfect end to a beach day. Absolutely loved our stay!!

Perfect Beach Stay!!
Knot Salty is the perfect place for our sister’s reunion. We love the short stroll to the beautiful beach. The elevator has been great for our older group to move in luggage. The rooms are spacious with beautiful beachy decor. The large dining table is perfect for sister gab fests and feasts. The convenience to stores and restaurants is perfect. Highly recommend Knot Salty for your stay!!

Fantastic stay at Knot Salty
Fantastic vacation home, lots of space, and incredible views of the ocean and sound. The kitchen was nicely equipped, and had everything needed, the fenced in yard was a major plus for the kids and it is only a 3 minute walk to the beach even with wagons and pack and plays. We loved our stay and will definitely be back!

Lovely home
This house was beautiful and well taken care of. Plenty of room and space for a large group. Short walk to the beach. We only had one issue during our stay, the stove wasn’t working but we reached out to the rental company and they quickly bought over a small oven and ordered parts to fix it. Access realty was great to work with. Would definitely recommend this property.

Terrific beach retreat
Had a great time here. Fenced in back yard, elevator to all floors, plenty of parking are just a start to the amenities here. Wonderful family room on the 3rd floor that is perfect for family groups to mingle with both ocean and sound views. Huge dining room table. The house is a 5 minute leisurely stroll to beach access. Kitchen has all of the amenities for those “family meals”. Nice sized bedrooms with a private “master retreat” on the 4th floor. Five minute drive to restaurants, shops and Surf City pier. Will definitely be back!
