You’ll love the screened-in porch for contemplating the day ahead with your morning coffee. The Edison bulb lights on the porch bring about the ambiance you want as you relax after a long day.
The modern kitchen has all you need to make a quick snack or a gourmet meal. Enjoy your breakfast at the bar or gather there as the next meal is being prepared. The gas grill outside is ready to cook your catch of the day. Three bedrooms with four comfortable beds will sleep up to six. In the two full bathrooms you will dry off with plenty of plush towels.

Situated close to Southport, Oak Island, St. James and Boiling Spring Lakes, you can find the perfect reminder of your visit in the quaint shops or dine on the wide variety of cuisine offerings in our area. Stock your pantry from the local vegetable stands and the numerous grocery stores. Enjoy the salubrious breezes Southport is known for while sitting in the swings on the picturesque waterfront. Bring your fishing pole and choose from three piers, a chartered fishing trip or rent a boat and bring home your freshly caught dinner. Sunset boat tours, self-guided walking tours or a ghost tour are popular outings. In an area steeped in history, visit the Maritime Museum, Ft. Anderson/Brunswick Town, the USS NC Battleship or take a ferry ride by car to the Fort Fisher Visitors Center and grounds and the Aquarium. Perhaps you choose to ride the passenger ferry to Bald Head Island for a day of dining and touring by golf cart or bicycle.
This cottage is conveniently located with public access to tennis courts, parks with walking trails, yoga studios, fitness classes, kid’s playgrounds, skateboard parks and even a splash pad. Shelling, swimming, fishing, crabbing or touring the Oak Island lighthouse are among beach activities on nearby Oak Island & Caswell Beach. Rent a boat and cruise the Intracoastal waterway keeping an eye out for the playful dolphins. If bicycles or kayaks are more your style, they are available locally to rent for a fun day. On rainy days watch a new release at the movie theater.
With all there is to see and do in our area, what you will perhaps remember most is coming back to a beautiful and serene retreat to relax and appreciate a good night’s sleep.

This was a great time. The living room chairs could be a bit more comfortable but we had a great time and would love to rent it again

The home was as shown in pics. Very spacious, great job with renovation, and clean. Fenced backyard, screen porch, & garage were a real plus! Very safe & walkable neighborhood, & pet friendly. Easy access to shopping & beach. A great find for my extend-stay needs. Management responded very quickly to my minor needs.

Wonderful
This is our second visit to coastal cottage. The house is clean and just beautiful. We love everything about it, esp the 3 season porch and the fenced in yard.
It’s a great location to downtown Southport or the Oak Island beaches.
The neighbors are incredibly friendly and the development is beautiful. It’s a great walking neighborhood.
We love stagers. It feels like home.

Best rental we’ve had in 10 years of visiting the Southport/Oak Island area!
Tips for future renters-bring fire stick or similar device in order to use tv& no ice maker so be prepared to purchase ice or additional ice cube trays. Small details that had no impact on overall Great experience.

Nice house in great location
The property did look like what was online. It was very clean on arrival. Check in was easy. We did have several problems. The binder in the house was to have instructions on using smart Roku TV. There were NO instructions. Unable to get nbc,cbs, abc or fox. Property manager and owners were unable to help. Extremely annoying!! We got an antenna which worked great. The owner did reimburse us. Just beware. The propane tanks for the fireplace and the grill were empty. Just know there are no instructions on how to use the fireplace. You will have to ask property manager. Both tanks are now full. Also know there are NO hangers. There are no kitchen extras. No spices, s&p or storage bags etc. There are beach towels, but no beach chairs. It’s a nice rental property just needs to be checked on to make sure everything is in working order. We spent a lot of our vacation time trying to make things right. If you find a problem report it. The owner will make it right if he knows. This property could be a 5 star , just needs better communication between renters and managers.
