How to find the best Southport vacation property experience:

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

• Summer months are high season in the Southport area. To get the best vacation home within budget, we recommend booking in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at popular attractions and restaurants. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer.
• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Hosts sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Booking websites often offer their guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guides have coupons for local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Select a designated group leader, select your vacation week, and choose a budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Off The Clock: Quietly Tucked Away, Only Two Minutes From Beach Access has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always available online. If you don't see them listed, contact the property management company before you reserve the home. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to work out what bed configuration is optimal for your group.
• If there's a particular Southport attraction you simply love, browse homes that are either nearby, or those that cater to your needs.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you must reserve a property that allows animals. Ask for information on breed, size, and type restrictions. Some property managers charge additional pet fees.

Some things to know before you go:

• We recommend storing the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• At Check-in, note any issues with the property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, stereo or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent a lot of concerns.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Keep your rental home locked while you're gone! Don't let burglars spoil your vacation.
• Double-check the property to make sure that you've packed everything on check-out day. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out 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! Hosts rely on excellent feedback to compel future bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will will be grateful for your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
