Southport trip

Great location with a view of the Marina. We sat on the back deck watching the boating activity and enjoying the warm sunny weather. We had a great dinner at Joseph's Italian Bistro just a few steps away from our location. Our condo was clean, quiet and well stocked. Nicole and Jim were gracious hosts.

Rear Porch overlooking the Harbour and the waterway/marshes was lovely. The one bedroom condo was clean and as advertised. Our communication with Jim was great and we had a great visit to the area enjoying Southport and Oak Island. There are 2 restaurants to hang out at as well - perfect!Ted

Beautiful place

Place is right on the harbor which is really beautiful....big king size bed and place is beautifully furnished...quiet...we had a few adjustments to make (internet, front door battery) the owners were very responsive to our needs....we had no hot water in the sink in the main bath...a bit frustrating...and there were no instructions on how to watch tv in the bedroom,,,it was too late to call the owners and we couldn't figure it out....otherwise, very lovely stay...front balcony is a beautiful place to sit on the water but it was a bit too cold for us....

Quiet Marina Views!

My wife and I got away for an Anniversary weekend and couldn’t have asked for a better time! The condo was perfect! Beautiful marina views and extremely quiet. The property was very clean and had everything we needed. We were able to view both the sunrise and sunset from our balcony. The place is in a great location between oak island and Southport and sort of set away from the bustle. There are a couple of great restaurants a short walk away with great views. We will stay here again for sure!

Overall impression

Beautiful place! Easy to work with owner. We had to adjust our schedule several times and it never was a problem. The view form then balcony and laid back atmosphere was extraordinary! There is great food available with a very short walk. The reason I gave the listing 4 stars was because I don’t remember any mention of the 14 steps you had to climb to get to the property. Not a problem for us, but could be for others. As I mentioned there is fantastic food really close by. Great benefit but did cause some parking challenges on the first night. Fortunately the restaurants close at 9:00 and the one that caused the parking issue did not open until 5:00. We had to wait for just a few minutes for someone to move and away we went. So with a little planning it was not a problem but is worth mentioning. I will absolutely stay in this beautiful place on my next visit! You can’t go wrong. The hosts are wonderful!

Marina magic

It was the perfect place for us. There was flooding in the area as a result of record rain. The owners called us in advance , giving us an option to pick another day if we were concerned with the local flooding. Our communication regarding the issues was on point and we decided to come despite the flooding. We arrived a little late due to getting a flat tire. Nicole was able to direct us to the nearest viable town where we got it repaired in an hour. The view from the balcony is picturesque with blue waters and a marina full of boats of all sizes. We spent a good portion of our time sitting on the deck with our music while watching the yachts go in and out and the airplanes flying over from the nearby airport. The king sized bed was very comfortable. There were tvs in both the bedroom and the living room. You can get Netflix if you have your id and password. Otherwise you get spectrum. There is an Italian restaurant (Joseph's) just three doors down. Right across the marina is another nice restaurant. Even with the flooding we were able to get to Southport and Oak Island with minor delays. We ate at Fishy Fishy and Oliver's in Spouthport and both were excellent. We walked on the beach at Oak Island. The apartment was very clean and had everything we needed including ice for our cooler. We loved everything about our stay and are planning another visit in the near future. You can't go wrong with this rental.

We really enjoyed our stay! Everything we needed was provided. The location could not have been any better. Sitting on the deck, looking out over the water and the boats was so calming. We appreciated the restaurant suggestions and visited most of them. Highly recommend this property! We will reserve it again!

We loved everything about this property! It was clean, comfortable, and had a wonderful view and free live music from Rusty’s! We would sit out overlooking the marina and be able to hear the music in the evening. We also loved that it was about 10 minutes from Southport, Oak Island, and St James. This will be our spot every year until we are there full time!

Wonderful place

This place was great! Reasonable daily price with a great view. The location was perfect. I made it one day sweating on the beach and was glad I booked this after changing to daily excursions. Carolina Beach, Topsail Beach, Wilmington, Southport, and Bald Head Island. The place was clean and comfortable. The only change I would make to save the furniture is coasters! Thank you.
