Spring time at the beach is approaching! We've got all the things you need for a calming time close to the beach & downtown, as well as the ambiance of your own fire pit for those cool evenings. Our camper is a vintage 1973 Holiday Vacationer (very fitting, huh?), & provides comfort, sustainable luxury, & a great photo-op! Located 15 mins. from Wrightsville Beach, 13 mins. from downtown, & just behind a 1.3 mile walking/cycling trail, & playground for kids.


The Holiday Homestead is designed to provide a unique hideaway while also taking care of the environment. We offer an indoor shower & outdoor shower, modest kitchenette, a well designed odor complimentary composting toilet, mini refrigerator, queen bed, and futon couch bed. There is an AC unit for the summer, as well as a fantastic space heater for the fall/winter months. We provide you with shampoos/conditioners/soaps that are all biodegradable, and a fantastic guidebook with how to use everything in the glamper.


There's a garden in the yard from which there might be fun fruits/veggies you can pick from to eat, and simple access to Smith Creek Park and just mins. to the beach. Feel complimentary to borrow our kayak at the park (just let us know so we can get you all set up with it). There is also a fire pit for those nice fall or springtime evenings.

This is a great little space to rest your head after an impressive concert in downtown Wilmington, or a long day at the beach! If you are interested in a later check out, or earlier check in please reach out to ask, it really just all depends on if we have more guests coming in right after you etc. Feel complimentary to message us and we'd be happy to let you know.

When you arrive there will be a guestbook and a guidebook waiting on your bed. Feel complimentary to sign the guestbook, and use the guidebook to understand all the nitty gritty of the camper and all the fun Wilmington spots.

We also have an additional outdoor office space that has a pull down Murphy bed that could be available to rent for an additional fee, just message us and we’d be happy to add that on so you can have more people stay with you.

For longer monthly stays we will supply you with your start of coffee and toilet paper but once you run out you are expected to provide your own. Also during monthly stays we will be coming in weekly at least to empty out the composting toilet or as needed. Thank you!

Finding the best Southport rental experience:

Finding your perfect rental:

• Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. To find the most suitable rental home for your budget, we highly recommend reserving in Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at popular Southport attractions and restaurants.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your group qualifies for a discount.
• Property managers typically offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitor guides contain offers and deals for local tours and attractions.

• Start by selecting potential vacation weeks and a max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your group needs. Glamping near the Beach - Book the Holiday Homestead Today! has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts is generally accessible online. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property management company before you book the home. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches.
• Some rentals allow pets, but others do not. Allowable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the host about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
