Tips to get the optimal Southport vacation home experience:

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

• Summer is high season in the Southport area. Booking your vacation home in Fall or Spring months is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation rental. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable properties. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer.
• The earlier you can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation homes are booked early. Booking your rental six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental home.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property management companies often offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually costs 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Many rental management companies supply Southport area visitor guides that include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Make a plan and choose the right Southport vacation home:

• Select your vacation dates and max budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration you need. Shorebird: 4 Bed\/2 Bath Ocean View House with Marsh Views from Back Deck. has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, contact the host before you book your home. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to determine what configuration is right for your vacation group.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction or event? Try a map search to find nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental.
• If your group is bringing pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly property. Get information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.

More considerations:

• We recommend storing the manager's information in your smartphone.
• To make certain that damages aren't attributed to your stay, inspect the rental for any problem areas during arrival. Speak to the rental manager immediately to document any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, intercom or appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent quite a few concerns.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful visitors disrupting your quiet neighborhood. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and scenic spots you would have never otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Lock your rental home while you're out. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• Re-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings on check-out day. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go 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 host isn't available, remember to take photographs of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a great vacation? Many rental managers make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property manager was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
