10/10 Excellent
"The view is excellent and the beds were very comfortable. The room unfortunately smelled like someone smoked in there and it was attempted to be covered up with scented things. Bathroom fan did not work. Heavy equipment was working right next to the room but thankfully not on the weekend. The pool was very clean and the kitchen was well equipped."

"The hosts were excellent at communicating. The condo was clean and had everything that we needed to enjoy a few days in Southport. The location was conveniently located to downtown. The pool and beach area were beautiful. We even had the treat of live music on the patio, on the Thursday night we were there. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Southport."

Welcome to Shell Cottage on Bald Head Island!

Welcome to Shell Cottage on Bald Head Island!

10/10 Excellent
"Dianne was prompt in answering our questions and addressing any concerns. The layout of the house was great with the family space being the central open area. The rooms were cozy and had all of the things that we needed for our stay. We enjoyed our visit and would stay again. Only thing I would note for those that it would matter, is that the listed grill is not full size but rather a small portable charcoal grill."
