Updated 1970's home, reminiscent of childhood vacations at the beach, provides a comfortable, calming home in a peaceful south end neighborhood. Simple access makes it just a 2 min. walk to the beach and a hop and skip to view impressive sunsets over the sound. A bird sanctuary is a block away on the south tip of the island. Terns nest there during the summer. It's a great place for kids to bicycle, scoot or skateboard on kid friendly streets so between the beach, the sound, and the neighborhood, kids can spend tons of time outside. Totally equipped kitchen makes it painless to prepare fresh seafood dishes for a family meal. Open floor plan accepts for ease of entertaining.
The 4 bedrooms supply 2 queen and 2 double beds with 2 full baths located between rooms. Appreciate ocean breezes while rocking in rocking chairs on the front porch, in the mornings with coffee, after a day at the beach with a beer or glass or wine, or star gazing at nighttime. The carport entrance is covered in jasmine for delicious smells when it's blooming in June. Parking for up to 6 cars is a plus as parking on the side of the street is not allowed and guests can visit during the day without paying public parking costs. The home provides 2 TV's, wifi, dvd player, and a radio/CD player.
The utility room below supplies a washer and dryer, body board, skim board, sand toys and comfortable beach chairs. An outside charcoal grille makes it simple to prepare while watching the sunset over the sound.
If you want to live a simple life of ease and relaxation on your vacation, this home and location is ideal.

Tips to get the best vacation property experience:

Getting the best value:

• The sooner you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best rental properties are reserved early. Booking your rental property up to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation rental.
• Summertime is high season in the Southport area. To find the best value, try shifting your vacation week to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer excellent temperatures, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host if your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Booking websites frequently offer renters an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, travel guide magazines contain deals for local shops and restaurants.

Choosing and booking the perfect Southport rental home:

• Start by choosing trip dates and a maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. Vacation Serenity In A Quiet Neighborhood has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is almost always accessible online. Otherwise, email or call the property management company before you book the vacation property. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds. You will need to establish which bed configuration is right for your group.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and others don't. Allowable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the owner about pets before booking.
• Are you visiting for a specific event or attraction? Use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Additional considerations:

• Get the property manager's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, A/V setup or coffee maker. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent lots of difficulties.
• Lock your vacation home while you are out. Keep your property safe!
• At Check-in, note any issues with the rental property and immediately contact the host. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious vacationers bothering your quiet neighborhood. Employ the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and places you would have not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can typically help. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Double-check the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all of your belongings at departure. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a great vacation? Most rental home management companies make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property manager was wonderful, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was wrong 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 review.
