Located in the heart of the peaceful and cozy Southport historic district, this comfortable room offers a unique experience to step back in time. There is so much to see and savor in historic Southport that you could park your car at the hotel for your entire stay and walk everywhere and get to experience a lot! You can take your own leisurely tour of the historic neighborhood that surrounds this hotel and view all the interesting fisherman's cottages and Victorian Era homes with plaques dating all the way back to the 1700s and 1800s. At the same time, you can take in the spectacular vistas of the mouth of the Cape Fear River and long range vistas of Bald Head Island and Caswell Beach with the Oak Island Lighthouse. We highly recommend taking this leisurely tour around sunset when you can not only experience the spectacular sunset over the water, but also witness these old homes as the lights come on at nighttime with covered front porches set up like outdoor living rooms, table lamps glowing and people sitting around talking as nighttime falls. You will find the people friendly and are likely get a wave and a "Hello!" as you walk by. Each home has its own historic story to tell as you will read on the plaques, or you can take a guided tour to learn more specifics about Southport's history. Taking just a short walk over to the Southport Visitor's Center will fill you in on all the interesting things there are to do! Unwind on one of the swings at the waterfront or walk over to the Southport Marina to go boating out on the water. Unique local shopping and fine or casual dining are all just steps away from your hotel room. Don't forget, the beach is also just a short 10-15 min. drive over to Oak Island! Whether you are staying just a few nights or for a week or longer, this quaint hideaway will have you leaving the fast pace of normal life behind and slowing down to Southport time!

Our top Wilmington, NC vacation rental home tips and tricks:

How to get the best rental value:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. To get the largest rental home within budget, we highly recommend reserving in the Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at Wilmington, NC restaurants, beaches, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites often offer customers an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local articles, visitors guide magazines have discounts for nearby shops and restaurants.

• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often accessible online. If you don't see them listed, call the property owner before reserving the vacation home. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to work out what is optimal for your trip.

• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. .
• If your group is traveling with pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly property. Get details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Be aware that some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.

Tips for your stay:

• Get the host's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your .
• To ensure that damages aren't attributed to your family's visit, record any problem areas during arrival. E-mail the host immediately to report your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud vacationers bothering your life at home. Use the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and places you would have not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently help. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Lock your vacation home while you're out and about. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• Re-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed everything on check-out day. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever you can. If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
• Remember to leave a review! Property owners rely on excellent ratings to stimulate new bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other families will appreciate that you share your review find their best vacation rental. Remember to be objective.
