Anchor House Southport

We really enjoyed our stay. It was very pet friendly. The park was close by, with walking trails. It is a very cute and eclectic house. Nice big backyard. We loved the tile in the shower.We ended up renting because it was Thanksgiving weekend and my parents to many people staying at their house. So we decided to rent so we could have some space of our own. We cook the Thanksgiving turkey (which was 25 pounds) and the oven worked great. Whenever I contacted the host, they got back to me quickly. We even extended our stay one more day.

Anchor House is a cute cottage harkening back to the old days of Southport. Its quaint and eclectic furnishings along with retro feel is cozy. Alas, we discovered when we pulled up, it’s for sale & I’m guessing it will go the way of other little older homes.

We thoroughly enjoyed our three days at Anchor House. The weather was unbearably HOT, but the house allowed us to feel right at home. Upkeep of the house is impeccable. We hope to be able to visit again!!!!!

Picked this cute bungalo as it had a great fenced yard for our dogs.

We loved the location of this cottage. We could walk to downtown and some great restaurants like Southern: a gathering place and Dry Street Pizza. It had a wonderful large fenced in yard for our dog to run and a wonderful screened porch out back. It may have been closed up for a while as there was a musty smell when we first walked in. It could use a little tlc.

This is our 3rd stay at Anchor House and we will be back! We love the location in a quiet residential area and that our dogs are comfy and provided for. The fenced yard is a great feature and gives our furbabies a place to run off leash safely. As usual, the home itself is quite well-appointed and comfortable, with plenty of space. The office area is really convenient when we need to bring work with us. And we appreciate that the basic needs (trash bags, paper products, linens) are provided, saving us from having to bring so much with us. Having multiple methods of making coffee is great, as well. Whether you are K-cup people or ground-coffee people, the kitchen can handle your favorite brew. We love this home enough to plan our visits around when it is available. It's worth it.

We were in town during a tropical storm, and Anchor House was the perfect place to spend a day inside. Quirky inside and well equipped. Although we could not figure out the stove, everything else worked fine. Location is great as well.

We loved staying at Anchor House except for one thing. The beds were very, very uncomfortable - way to firm. So much so that we left a day early to return home to our own bed. Additionally, it would be nice if one of the beds was a king sized bed. We both flopped around in bed so much, trying to get comfortable, we ended up sleeping in separate queen sized beds during our stay. ?

We had a great stay at Anchor House! The house was everything we could have wanted and more. Perfect for relaxing and enjoying some of the great local cuisine. Our dog loved the house and the fenced in backyard! Will definitely stay there again!

We enjoyed our stay very much! Easy access to all the shops and restaurants; easy drive to Oak Island. We loved the house…the kitchen is new, the showers were great (one inside, one outside), the bed was comfortable, great closet space, and was as described. Highly recommend, hope to return.
