RIVER HOTEL OF SOUTHPORT ROOM 115 - Boasting vistas of the Oak Island and Bald Head Island lighthouses, this attractively appointed room has all the amenities - a outfitted galley kitchen with full refrigerator and dishwasher, coffee maker, two queen size beds, a dining and desk area, as well as the impressive vistas from your own private balcony. Located in the heart of the peaceful and cozy Southport historic district, this comfortable room offers a unique experience to step back in time. There is so much to see and savor in historic Southport that you could park your car at the hotel for your entire stay and walk everywhere and get to experience a lot! You can take your own leisurely tour of the historic neighborhood that surrounds this hotel and view all the interesting fisherman's cottages and Victorian Era homes with plaques dating all the way back to the 1700s and 1800s. At the same time, you can take in the spectacular vistas of the mouth of the Cape Fear River and long range vistas of Bald Head Island and Caswell Beach with the Oak Island Lighthouse. We highly recommend taking this leisurely tour around sunset when you can not only experience the spectacular sunset over the water, but also witness these old homes as the lights come on at nighttime with covered front porches set up like outdoor living rooms, table lamps glowing and people sitting around talking as nighttime falls. You will find the people friendly and are likely get a wave and a "Hello!" as you walk by. Each home has its own historic story to tell as you will read on the plaques, or you can take a guided tour to learn more specifics about Southport's history. Taking just a short walk over to the Southport Visitor's Center will fill you in on all the interesting things there are to do! Unwind on one of the swings at the waterfront or walk over to the Southport Marina to go boating out on the water. Unique local shopping and fine or casual dining are all just steps away from your hotel room. Don't forget, the beach is also just a short 10-15 min. drive over to Oak Island! Whether you are staying just a few nights or for a week or longer, this quaint hideaway will have you leaving the fast pace of normal life behind and slowing down to Southport time!

Our top Rental property booking tips:

Getting the best value:

• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Booking in Spring or Fall is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your vacationing group qualifies for a discount.
• Property management companies often offer guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Southport visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local information, visitor guide magazines contain discounts for nearby shops and restaurants.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Select a group leader, choose your vacation dates, and select a spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. 1BR\/1BA Hotel Room - Pool, Elevator, Sleeps 4 has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally available online. If not, email the property management company before you reserve your home. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to establish what is right for your family.
• Are you bringing the family pet? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your host before booking, and study your agreement! Additional fees or charges could be applied to your contract.
• If there's a particular Southport beach you are crazy about, keep an eye out for homes that are either near by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to ask about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Tips to have a wonderful stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Add a note with the instructions to your phone, and take a printed backup.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Keep your rental home locked while you're out! Don't let thieves ruin your trip.
• Make a record of any damages to the property at check in, and immediately contact the owner. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be valuable if there is a dispute.
• Be respectful. Frequently, nearby homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• At departure, take a walk-through to make sure you did not forget any personal items. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property a final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager is not available, remember to take photographs of the property to record its condition.
• Leave a review! Hosts rely on good ratings to drive more reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your review find their best vacation home. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
