The comfortable living room offers plenty of upsized seating to sink down into after an adventure-filled day and savor a favorite show on the wall-mounted Roku TV. The sturdy dining table seats four for meals or family game nights - three more can sit at the adjacent breakfast bar.

The convenient kitchen is outfitted with modern appliances and everything you'll need to prepare family recipes or the catch of the day. Thanks to the open-concept floor plan, the chef can still be part of the conversation while they work their magic. It's simple to make sure you don't get stuck with wet beach towels for the next day or the ride home, as the washer and dryer are located in the laundry closest just off the kitchen. A half bath is located in this area as well.

Down the hall, you'll find the bunk room, furnished with a queen bed and a twin-over-twin bunk bed. A Jack and Jill style bathroom with a shower connects through to a bedroom furnished with a king bed and a wall-mounted TV for personal entertainment. This room also features direct access to the unit's balcony, cheerfully decorated with metal sea life wall-sculptures and complete with string lights for a soft glow at nighttime. This covered porch is also accessible from the living room. The primary bedroom features a king size bed and its own TV as well, but this space also includes an ensuite bath featuring a shower so you can get ready in privacy.

Conveniently located in walking distance of fashionable local dining options, an arcade, beach stores, ice cream stores and nightlife, not to mention the sand and surf, this trendy condo complex also features charming community amenities. Take a dip in the pool to cool off, grille up some burgers and picnic at the supplied tables, and heave a sign of relief as you load your suitcases on the elevator instead of lugging it up the steps.

When you're ready to take a break from the everyday, Gone Beachin' is ready to welcome you!

This unit also accepts nightly and off-season monthly stays.

Please note that the pictured electric fireplace is not available for guest use.

Southport rental booking tips:

Finding the best rental value:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. To get the largest rental for your budget, we highly recommend booking in Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at your favorite restaurants and activities.
• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts offer discounts for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family.
• Property managers usually offer their guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Southport area visitors guides that include special offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport area magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Select vacation week and max budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Gone Beachin' : Dog-friendly Condo Close to Beach has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly available online. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property management company before you book your home. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to work out what is best for your vacation group.
• Is your family looking for unique amenities? Most rental websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to ask about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you will need a pet-friendly rental. Make sure to ask for information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Be aware that some hosts charge additional pet fees.

Some things to know before you go:

• We recommend storing the host's information in your smartphone.
• Upon arrival, note any issues with the property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful vacationers bothering your home life. Apply the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and attractions you would've never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Keep the property locked while you are out! Don't let crooks ruin your holiday.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all of your things. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on good reviews to stimulate new reservations. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your experience find their best vacation home. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
