Our top Southport vacation rental booking tips:

When to book a Southport rental home & When to go:

To get the best value, consider changing your group's vacation week to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer warmer weather, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your group qualifies for a discount.
Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer customers an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for specifics.
Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, visitor guide magazines have coupons for local accommodations and attractions.

Planning, picking, and booking the perfect Southport rental:

Select a group lead, select your dates, and select a maximum budget.
Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. A Shore Thing 1 - OCEANFRONT and DOG FRIENDLY! Private beach access! by RedAwning has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed types is regularly accessible online. If not, email the property management company before reserving the vacation property. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to establish what is best for your vacation.
If there's a specific Southport attraction you love, browse homes that are either close by, or those that cater to your requirements.
Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental.
If your family is bringing pets, you must reserve a rental that allows animals. Get details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Usually, property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.

During your stay:

Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Save the instructions to your smartphone, and take a printed backup.
Upon check-in, note any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the property manager. Keep records of all coorespondence.
Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are a terrific resource to find the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
Lock your rental while you are out and about. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
Just before checking out, take a walk-through to make sure you haven't forget any personal items. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
Walk through the rental one final time and look for damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, take video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
Did your family have a great stay? Many rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental and/or host was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was out of order and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
