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

• Summer months are the most expensive season in coastal NC. Reserve your Southport vacation home in Spring or Fall to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.

• In the Southport area, The earlier your group can book a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The best rental homes are booked early. Reserving your vacation rental six - twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation home.
• Hosts sometimes offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer customers an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.

You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.
