Southport Salty Patriot-Walk to DT/Pets/Fully fenced with firepit!

Centrally-located and walking distance to downtown Southport, you can enjoy the shops and restaurants, spend the day at nearby Oak Island, or take the ferry over to beautiful Bald Head island...endless possibilities!

The home is updated throughout and tastefully designed. The backyard is fully fenced with a firepit so you and your family can be comfort...come enjoy our coastal beach town!

The Southport Salty Patriot sits in a cozy neighborhood right outside of downtown Southport. As you pull up to the home you will see our red, white, and blue home that was the inspiration for the name! There is a gravel drive to the right where you can park. You will then enter through the red door on the HUGE front porch!

As you enter the home, you will see that it has an open layout that is great for hosting your crew. Easy to entertain and stay connected through the stay. On your right will be the living area where there is a giant sectional for your movie nights or naps after the beach! The home has a Smart TV for all your viewing needs. This living space is open to the dining area that has a large table for your meals or game nights! On the other side of the dining area is a bar which is part of the fully loaded kitchen! This kitchen is ready to roll for you and has tons of space for all your cooking needs.

To the left of the home you will find the bedrooms. The first bedroom has two beds in it. A queen bed, a twin bed, and trundle underneath are all there with full linens. This room has a Smart TV so you can escape for a bit or have a place for the kids to watch a movie! The Primary bedroom is closer to the back of the home where there is a queen bed and an en suite. This room and bathroom are very spacious. Enjoy an amazing CLAWFOOT bathtub and walk in shower on your relaxing evenings in this luxury retreat!

In the back of the home, you have access to a modern full bath and laundry room! There you will also find some beach essentials like a chair, cooler and more.

Outback we have a FULLY fenced backyard with a firepit, seating, and a table. Its a great place to hang with the family, enjoy meals, or have a little fire in the evening. It really helps you have your private space back there and make your life easier if you are traveling with kids or pets!

Very nice older home that's been renovated, and they did a great job. It was very clean, especially considering it was pet-friendly. Nice open floorplan and our dog loved the back yard. Very close to downtown and makes a great walk. The neighborhood was quiet and relaxing. Highly recommend, especially for pet owners.

Wow! This place was fabulous! Super clean and had everything we needed for a stay. It couldn’t be a better set up if you had a dog with a fenced backyard. Just minutes away from all the major beaches. Plenty of restaurants close by. The beds and bathrooms were comfy. Check in was easy and checkout was equally as problem free. The hosts were good communicators so we knew everything before we got there. We would definitely stay here again.

Southport

Our stay was terrific. The town is perfect, the house is exactly as described, and it is a short walk to downtown. Our dogs were welcome to join us at the house, which was a huge perk. There was plenty of room at the house, and we loved it so much that we booked an additional night after we arrived there. 10/10 recommend!

Nicely done bungalow. The street is in a bit of a transition with some houses in disrepair however we felt perfectly safe. Could use some paint touch ups like front steps. Front porch furniture was ok. Suggest adding a hand rail for the front and back steps. Kitchen was very nice and roomy.

Perfect location

Place is in the perfect spot. Less than 5 minute drive to piers. Stores, taverns and eatery are walking distance. Neighborhood was quiet. A good amount of dogs in the neighborhood as well. Park for kids or shooting hoops right down the road. Really nice stay for us and our dog. Max was great. Any questions I had he answered, easy to talk to and communicate with. Made the stay that much better. We will use again for sure!
