The department was able to contain the fire by 8 a.m. and is continuing to monitor the situation.
“We are grateful that the quick response led to minimal spread of the fire and that the impact was mostly contained to the structure,” Surf City fire chief Allen Wilson said in a press release.
Also assisting with the efforts were units from Pender EMS and Fire, North Topsail Beach Fire Department and Topsail Beach Fire Department.
