About this property

Southport Waterfront

Be part of a unique small town. Live oaks, historic homes, shopping, restaurants, all contribute to the uniqueness of Southport NC. But what really sets it apart is that all roads seem to lead to water and that's where you will be. Fireworks on the 4th, Stede Bonnet Regatta,and the U.S. King mackerel Open, are examples of what can be viewed from the deck.

One king size bed with private bathroom, another bedroom with two single beds with private bathroom, provide sleeping for four. Fully equipped kitchen, separate dining area, and open floor plan lead to living easy.

Cook dinner and watch the boats go by from the deck or take a short 30 second walk to the marina. Several great restaurants can be found via a beautiful 3 or 4 minute walk down the waterway. These include the Yacht Basin Provision Company as well as Fishy Fishy Café – Restaurant & Bar. Both of these restaurants have great seafood and you dine right on the dock with the water just below. For a cocktail, head to the end of the dock and the Old American Fish Company which occasionally has live misuc and watch the boaters watching you. All of these places are less than five minutes walk from the condo.

Everything I wanted it to be, and then some!

It's so nice when a place not only meets your expectations, but exceeds them! Everything was just as pictured, and on top of that the condo was very neat, clean, and so well stocked! We had everything we needed, including all the soaps you need, plenty of linens, including black wash cloths for makeup removal, and the towels were big and plush! Oh, and the toilet paper and paper towels were even good quality, which sounds like a small thing, but matters to me! And the view was wonderful, overlooking the marina and the marsh walk, which I love! And the porch overlooking it was so long and wide, with plenty of seating choices to sit and take it all in! We even got a birds eye view of some of the filming the the Netflix Series "The Waterfront." Close proximity to everything! We just loved it, and definitely want to return! Also, communication with Butch was awesome!

Great but annoying

Everything was great and was exactly as the listing stated. The condo was spacious and everything we needed was there except for a golf cart and a boat. lol The only real problem we had was the couple that was on the third floor above us, it almost felt like they were doing it intentionally Sometimes at 4:30 in the morning until midnight. You could hear every “stomping” footstep they took and their dog barking. With the exception of that, we had a great time! I don’t know if that couple lives there or if they were renting but we would not stay there again if we knew they were going to be there.

Quaint Condo with Marina/Bay Views

We enjoyed our stay at this spacious two-bedroom condo on the second floor. We enjoyed many hours on the rocking chairs on porch facing the water. Beautiful views! In addition, they location was perfect for exploring the town on the golf cart we rented. Fun shops, good food and live music were all found in Southport.

Absolutely Wonderful!

As great as the pictures are on the listing for this condo, they do not do it justice! The location is great, the town is walkable from the rental, especially the restaurants at the yacht basin. The deck was a favorite spot to drink morning coffee and watch the boat traffic, those container ships are crazy!! The rooms are spacious, and the kitchen is so well stocked with everything you need. This condo is a perfect jumping off spot for all beach adventures: Oak Island, Bald Head (a must visit), plus the ferry to Fort Fisher and the aquarium. I cannot wait to come back for another visit, and this property will definitely be my ‘go to’. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

Beautiful!

The minute we opened the door: Beautiful view, beautiful decor, the best location, spotlessly clean. The owner was fantastic & prompt when we had questions. You can tell that this condo is well loved by the owners, with no detail missed. Like a 5 star luxury hotel. Convenient to walk to restaurants, etc. Huge private deck to watch boats go by & feel the breeze. You will not want to leave! Would stay here again and again!

Perfection!

We enjoyed another wonderful stay at Butch and Kathleen’s lovely condo. It is truly perfection in every way: cleanliness and attention to detail, everything a guest could need is provided. The location is walking distance to many restaurants, shops and those fabulous swings at Waterfront Park! Of course, the view from the condo deck is breathtaking! We so look forward to another stay, hopefully sooner rather later. Thank you so much, Butch & Kathleen!

We had a lovely stay at Butch and Kathleen's and could not ask for a better experience. The accommodations were excellent - comfortable and we had everything we needed. The balcony is relaxing with a million-dollar view. Butch's communications were excellent. The trip exceeded our expectations. Thank you for sharing your home with us - we will be back soon!

Love the view!

View from the living room and deck are wonderful! And the location in town near all the activities is great! But we wished it had been cleaner and updated a little more. The furniture is downtrodden and the stove wasn't clean. But otherwise, we were happy there.

Fabulous!

This is one of those times when I almost want to hold back on how wonderful this place is because we would kind of like to keep it our secret. We enjoyed everything about the condo! It’s exceptionally clean, which is of the utmost importance to our family, comfortable, very well stocked, spacious, and, of course, that amazing view! We could have sat on the deck for hours. Location is excellent. It’s about a ten minute walk along charming West St or the water to shops and restaurants. We hope to return soon. Thanks so much, Butch & Kathleen!

Everything was great from the responsiveness of the owner to the condo to the localation to downtown to the view of the marina. We really couldn't have asked for a better VRBO choice for the week. Building also had an elevator & parking for our car and so many amenities in the condo. I would highly recommend this place. It was super clean and really had everything we needed for our stay.
