Boasting vistas of Oak Island and Bald Head Island, this elegantly appointed room has all the amenities - a supplied galley kitchen with full refrigerator and dishwasher, coffee maker, two queen size beds, a dining and desk area, as well as the extraordinary vistas from your own private balcony. 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 appreciate in historic Southport that you could park your car here 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 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!

How to get the best Carolina Beach vacation rental experience:

Getting the most from your budget:

• The sooner your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best properties are booked early. Booking your rental property six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and book your vacation home.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Southport. To find the largest rental home within your budget, we suggest booking in Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at the beach and popular attractions.
• Some property management companies offer discounts for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family.
• Property management companies often offer renters an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Carolina Beach visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitors guide magazines contain offers and deals for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Narrow your Search:

• First and foremost, have your family agree to a vacation week and a spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. Spt Riverview Rm 116 - Studio Efficiency, Water Views/Waterfront, Pool, Sleeps 4 has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed types is regularly available on booking websites. Otherwise, email the property manager before booking the home. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to determine what configuration is suitable for your vacation 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. Ask your host before booking, and study your rental agreement! Pet fees or costs may be applied to your contract.
• Are you looking for particular amenities? Most websites include amenity lists and search filters. Use these filters to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking

During your stay:

• Be sure you get the host's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental. Store the manager's information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, stereo or coffee maker. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent quite a few difficulties.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are away, just like you would back home.
• To make certain that no damages are attributed to your family's stay, make note of any problem areas upon check in. E-mail the host right away to relay your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a great source for finding the best local beaches and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Just prior to departing, complete a final walk-through to confirm you did not forget any personal items. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your family have a wonderful time? Most rental home management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property management company was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was out of order and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
