Strategies to get the perfect Southport vacation home experience:

Money saving strategies:

• The earlier your group can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation homes are reserved very early. Reserving your vacation home six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your vacation rental.
• Summer is high season in the Southport area. To find the largest rental home for your budget, we highly recommend booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at the beach and popular attractions.
• Property managers sometimes offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Ask your property manager if discounts are available for your group.
• Property managers often offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Southport area visitors guides which will include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Selecting and booking your prefectvacation home:

• First, have your family select the best dates and a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Maggie's Midtown Cottage has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is usually accessible online. If not, email or call the property owner before booking your home. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• If your group is bringing pets, filter your search for a property that allows animals. Ask for specifics on breed, size, and type restrictions. Some property managers charge additional pet fees.
• If there's a specific Southport beach you are enamored with, look for rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking.

More tips for your visit:

• Get the host's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home. We recommend storing the host's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or washer/dryer. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief call prevents many problems.
• Keep the property locked while you're gone! Don't let crooks ruin your vacation.
• To make certain damages aren't linked to your stay, inspect the rental for any problem areas when you arrive. Call the host right away to record any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a great resource to find the best local beaches.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• When it's time to leave, take a walk-through to confirm you didn't forget any personal items. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your family have a great vacation? Most rental home management companies make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your rental and/or property management company was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was out of order and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
