Sticking to a rental budget:

• Summer months are high season in the Southport area. Reserve your rental property in the Fall or Spring to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities.
• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.

Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.

You can also find Southport visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.
