About this Property

• Sleeps 4
• 1 Bedrooms
• 1 Bathrooms
• Condo
• Approximately 840 square feet

Drop your keys on Boddington the Butler's tray (!), and head to the deck to relax while you savor the view of pretty South Harbor Village Marina ( managed by Safe Harbor, and offers transient slip options).
The beaches of Oak Island are just a short drive over the ICW. (3.2 miles to Oak Island Pier). If you are a thrill seeker, you might be tempted to try a skydive experience, which is available 5 mins. away. Rental options for boats, bicycles and kayaks are close by. Explore the parks and nature trails, or take a 15 min. drive into Southport to amble through the many Boutiques & Antique Stores, Bistros, Bakeries, Craft Beer and Wine Bars. Visit the Maritime Museum, then lounge in a swing chair on the lawn while watching the Cape Fear River boat traffic. Take a sunset cruise...highly recommended, and maybe a Ghost Tour in Southport! The condo is conveniently located, and there is complimentary parking.
There are many places to eat, but it's ideal that one of the highly rated eateries is Joseph's Italian Bistro, right next door, and Rusty Hooks Dockside Grille is a min.'s walk, with gorgeous sunset vistas from their Porch seating.
Unwind....appreciate...relax...
Welcome!

Finding the best Southport vacation home experience:

When to book & When to go:

• The earlier you can reserve a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The best vacation homes are booked very early. Booking your vacation home up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.
• To find the best rental home within your budget, we strongly suggest booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at local restaurants, tours, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season.
• Owners sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies frequently offer guests an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Often, management companies supply Southport area visitor guides that include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport area magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Selecting the best vacation rental in Southport:

• First and foremost, have your family commit to vacation dates and a max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Water view condo overlooking Marina, with private deck has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts is almost always accessible on booking websites. If not, call the host before you reserve your rental. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches. You will need to establish what is right for your group.
• Traveling with pets? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement! Pet fees or costs could be applied to your contract.
• Does your family require special amenities? Most websites include search filters for amenities. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Advice for your stay:

• Add the property manager's phone number to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Upon check-in, make note of any issues with the property and immediately contact the owner. Record all coorespondence.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome visitors bothering your peace. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and attractions you would have never otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the rental to confirm you've collected all of your things. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the host is not available, ensure that you take video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your family have a great time? Most rental home management companies make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or host was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was inoperable and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
