PLEASE NOTE, we do not offer membership to the clubs. If club access is a priority, this may not be for you. If morning coffee on the back porch, long walks on the beach, leisurely bicycle rides through the maritime forest, observing nature, or kayaking through the salt marsh is more your speed, look no further.

Creekside Cottage sits on the 6th hole of the BHI golf course and is in close proximity to the public creek access. Renters are included bicycles and kayaks to appreciate all that this location has to offer. Our home comes with 2 - 4 person golf carts.

We are a short 5-min. walk to the chapel and lighthouse. Harbor village eateries are just beyond that. Several public beach accesses are only a 5-min. golf cart ride away.

Watch the world go by on the rocking chair front porch. Savor the broad screened porch with peek-a-boo vistas of the golf course. There is a tri-fold window that opens between the porch and the gourmet kitchen which is ideal for entertaining when the weather is cooler. Living space is open, inviting, and gorgeously decorated.

Our home is a short 10-min. walk to the ferry terminal and beach access #5. Because of the convenient location, it is painless to get to and from the ferry terminal without the need for the tram. Have someone in your event wait for bags to unload while someone else retrieves the golf cart.

How to find the best Southport vacation property experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. Reserving a rental home in Spring or Fall is a good way to save on your vacation rental. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable homes. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer.
• The earlier you can book a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable properties are reserved early. Reserving your rental home up to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and book your vacation rental.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host if your group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Southport area travel guides which often include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

• Lock your rental home while you're out. Protect your property!
• Upon check-out, take a walk-through to confirm you didn't forget any personal items. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
