Great house, great location

Directly across from Southport Marina, this is a great house in a perfect location. Close to the marina, if that's your thing, but also within easy walking distance of waterfront restaurants. The house itself is immaculate and very comfortable. I would definitely rent again.

Perfect Location

While we were in Southport for a family affair and not to play, we had a lovely stay at the Never Sail. The location is very convenient to the downtown shops and walking distance to everything. We had a yummy meal at Mr. P’s Bistro (Carry Out) and cooked in one night. Otherwise, we had plenty of room to enjoy the family and relax. Thanks for a lovely stay!

Super convenient and beautiful

This unit was right across the street from the Marina and next door to a new restaurant. It was a short walk to all of the Southport restaurants, shops and activities. The space was large, well-appointed, and comfortable! Thank you!

Weekend Trip

Perfect for fishing, eating, and relaxing out of your area code with friends and family. All amenities are available at this location or a short drive. Across the street from the ramp and marina. Walking distance to numerous restaurants and shops. Used VRBO and have dealt with numerous agencies over 20 years, highly recommend Southport Realty and Heather. We will return to Southport and will be more than happy to stay in The Never Sail again.

Nice area. Easy check in. Tv in master bedroom did not work. Outdoor trash can was full when we arrived (had enough room for 2 small bags of trash). Floors needed a good cleaning. Overall space was adequate. Parking was good. Washer and dryer looked to be fairly new. Oven door needs some work but we ended up not using. This was a new location for us to stay. It was quiet at night. Might try another duplex next time.
