RIVER HOTEL OF SOUTHPORT ROOM 115 - Boasting vistas of the Oak Island and Bald Head Island lighthouses, this delightfully 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 spectacular 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 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!

Tips and Tricks for getting the perfect Carolina Beach vacation home experience:

When to visit Southport & When to reserve a Carolina Beach rental home:

• Summer months are high season in the Carolina Beach area. To find the best value, consider changing your group's vacation week to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer warmer temperatures, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August.
• The sooner your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are reserved very early. Booking your vacation property six - twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental property.
• Some property management companies offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers frequently offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local articles, travel guide magazines contain offers and deals for local tours and attractions.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Start by having your group commit to dates and a maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. 1BR\/1BA Hotel Room - Pool, Elevator, Sleeps 4 has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is regularly accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, email the property manager before you book the rental. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If there's a specific Carolina Beach destination you love, look for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater to your needs.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• Some properties allow pets, and others don't. Allowable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the host about your furry family members before booking.

More considerations for your visit:

• Get the host's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your .
• During check-in, note any damages to the property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, intercom or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent quite a few problems.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors bothering your peace. Employ the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and places you would have not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property when you are away, just like you would back home.
• Just prior to departing, take a final walk-through to confirm you haven't leave anything behind. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property one final time and scan for damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, take video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave a review! Hosts rely on good feedback to stimulate new bookings. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
