Summary: We had a wonderful stay at the cottage! It's even more charming in person and the layout and space were perfect for us as 2 adults who love their own space. Loved the extra half bath in the back. Thank you for providing a great place in the most charming part of Southport!

Summary: We usually stay on Oak Island, but wanted a change of pace in Southport. The neighborhood was so quiet and lovely. We walked to the water, shops, and restaurants while taking in the serenity of it all along the way. The owners are very kind. Absolutely perfect for a long weekend getaway!
