PLEASE NOTE, we do not offer membership to the clubs. If club access is a priority, this may not be for you. If morning coffee on the back porch, long walks on the beach, leisurely bicycle rides through the maritime forest, observing nature, or kayaking through the salt marsh is more your speed, look no further.

Creekside Cottage sits on the 6th hole of the BHI golf course and is in close proximity to the public creek access. Renters are supplied bicycles and kayaks to appreciate all that this location has to offer. Our home comes with 2 - 4 person golf carts.

We are a short 5-min. walk to the chapel and lighthouse. Harbor village eateries are just beyond that. Several public beach accesses are only a 5-min. golf cart ride away.

Watch the world go by on the rocking chair front porch. Appreciate the broad screened porch with peek-a-boo vistas of the golf course. There is a tri-fold window that opens between the porch and the gourmet kitchen which is ideal for entertaining when the weather is cooler. Living space is open, inviting, and gorgeously decorated.

Our home is a short 10-min. walk to the ferry terminal and beach access #5. Because of the convenient location, it is painless to get to and from the ferry terminal without the need for the tram. Have someone in your event wait for bags to unload while someone else retrieves the golf cart.

Tips to get the very best vacation property experience:

How to get the best value:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. Booking in Fall or Spring months is our favorite way to save money on your vacation home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• The earlier you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best rental homes are reserved early. Reserving your rental six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental home.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your family qualifies for a discount.
• Property managers usually offer renters an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Look for your local Southport area magazine upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitor guide magazines have deals for nearby accommodations, tours and attractions.

• If there's a particular Southport beach you are crazy about, search for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
