Southport, North Carolina
Enjoy your Master Bedroom with private bath. Indulge in your European steam shower and marble-tiled, dual-head shower spa. Your separate media room comes equipped with a 77' flat screen TV with Apple TV, a Wii and Wii Fit for gaming enthusiasts, and built-in, custom-carpeted, stadium seating for enjoying with family and friends! Besides enjoying a game, Blue Ray DVD, or your own movies and music via apps like Netflix and iTunes, feel free to enjoy a book, play a board game, or pass an afternoon on the second story outdoor seating area watching the sail and power boats explore the coast. Your custom kitchen, part of a recent hundred thousand dollar renovation, waits just inside, where you can fix anything from French 75's to a pitcher of frozen margaritas-- or gourmet cook to your hearts content-- while drinking in the visual beauty of the Carolina coast or listening to shore birds and the clinking of the ships' rigging... Downstairs, one bedroom is perfect for young children with its two day beds, comfortingly enclosed on three sides. Two roll-out trundles are great for siblings. Or, the bedroom can be put to good use by single friends maximizing space on vacation! Enjoy the back porch swing and two bathrooms from which to choose: one with a custom, marble-tiled shower enclosure with its own water-heater to ensure endless showers or another with a Jacuzzi jetted-tub large enough for couples or young children and their friends! A second bedroom is perfect for couples or siblings with its full-size, handmade solid pine daybed with full-size, roll-out trundle. Both bedrooms also feature sail chairs--comfortable and nearly indestructible-- made locally from up-cycled, racing-grade, boat sail!. The third bedroom, with queen bed, antique side tables and blanket chest, is well-suited to grandparents or another couple. It is also the location of the wireless router which affords high speed internet throughout the home. Your upstairs custom kitchen has bar seating as well as a more formal dining area for eight. In addition to typical amenities, enjoy your Keurig, espresso maker, charcoal grill (Big Green Egg, XL, to be exact), and atypical cookware including a pressure cooker favored in many cuban dishes. You'll also find your kitchen basics fully stocked on arrival-- we do ask that you replenish what you use and we welcome suggestions on what you'd like to see added in the future. Outside, enjoy cornhole in your side yard, display your grilling expertise on your own luxury Big Green Egg (but please ONLY use the supplied BGE Charcoal and SpeediLight Natural Charcoal Starters) in the hardscaped backyard with built-in firepit, stroll through the picturesque neighborhood, or take a swim or a suntan in the in-ground pool. If exploring's your passion, the marina, coastal walk, and historic Southport are just down the street. If bar-life or food are your passions, stroll to six right on the water-- and don't be surprised to watch dolphins play while you eat (or drink!). Jump on your bikes or walk a little farther for the shopping or antiquing which brings day trippers down from Wilmington, Oak Island, or Bald Head. Terrific beaches are easily accessible by car and/or ferry, ranging from minutes on neighboring Oak Island to 30 minutes or so for Wilmington area destinations. Or, with an additional security deposit, fee, and proof of boating experience, use your 19' Grady White with a Yamaha 150, berthed within eyesight of your home, and the entire coast is your playground! Pack a picnic and Pelican Island can be your private beach, and is a 5-minute boat-ride away. Visit Bald Head Island and its miles of pristine beaches, including terrific body-surfing and surfing breaks. Boat the Intracoastal and stop for lunch, dinner, or drinks, wherever you fancy! If golf's your passion, St James Plantation is right around the corner by boat or car. Original art throughout including works by local artists and the Georgia-based, Sandra Sacco. Custom ceiling fans throughout.

The place was clean and as advertised. We loved the proximity to town and it's quiet location. My kids made great use of the bikes and the media room. The kitchen was well stocked and very up to date. We very much enjoyed our stay.
A beautiful property in a charming town! Enjoyed the high end features of the home like the jacuzzi tub and the steam shower. The location was excellent as everything was within walking distance. The hosts were super as they responded quickly to any question we had. The evenings by the firepit were a special time for our family. Southport is such a hidden charm. The beauty of the water, little shops and ferry rides to islands and Fort Fisher made it a special visit.
The seven ladies in our group had a great weekend!!! Lovely place to stay. We would stay there again.
Enjoyed your townhome very much! Loved the location!
The house was absolutely beautiful and well taken care of. They had everything we needed. It was worth the visit!! We are in love with Southport! The Wedding was beautiful and Southport will always be a special place for us all. Thank you, Jeff & Shelia Parker
Lovely and spacious house within walking distance of shops, restaurants and riverfront. Short drive to beach. House is great for either a group of friends or a family with children. Hosts are responsive and easy to communicate with.
We enjoyed our stay at the Crazy Birds house in Southport, North Carolina. There were three adults in our group. My only complaint would be is that there is not any kind of den or sitting area for adults to hang out. There is a nice fire pit outdoors, but it was way too hot to consider that on this trip.

It was perfect for what we needed. Thank you.
Overall we had a great time. Location perfect for walking to shops and restaurants, but still peaceful with a water view of the marina. Beds comfortable, plenty of kitchenware. It was a bit smaller than we anticipated (it’s only half of the house shown in the picture), and we were surprised to find it didn’t have its own pool (it’s a community pool). The steam shower was nice touch!
The house is beautiful with so much space. The amenities are amazing especially the sauna shower. It is close to everything and in a great neighborhood with friendly people.
Everytime I come to Southport there’s always a new experience! I was hoping to take my friends sailing, but it was very cold and cloudy. We opted to go into town and enjoy the shops. Our favorite was the wine shop, Wine Rack, where they had a relaxing atmosphere for sipping! Great spot you don’t want to miss for a girls weekend. We spent most of our time at the large gathering table in the kitchen, the large balcony just off the kitchen and at the fire pit in the evenings. The steam shower was the perfect place to thaw out after those cold days. I highly recommend!
Three generations gathered here for New Year's weekend (all adults). Plenty of beds and bathrooms with two bonuses: a steam shower and jacuzzi tub! Of note, the eat-in kitchen (with seating for 8) is upstairs. The first floor porch and second floor balcony were favorite spots for curling up with a good book while enjoying morning sun. Patrick was very responsive as needed, provided thorough welcoming communications and accommodated our late check out.
This is a great house for a group of people! There were plenty of spaces to hang out together or to find solace with a book! The location was ideal for getting around town for meals and shopping. I'm pretty sure we did not drive the entire weekend. The water views were serene! I definitely recommend Crazy Birds to anyone and can't wait to get back again!
My friends and I truly enjoyed our stay at Crazybirds! When we first got there we were impressed at the cleanliness of it. We’ve stayed at other VRBO properties and this one was exceptional! When we weren’t walking through town (Sooo many cute shops and restaurants!!) we spent most of our time in the common spaces of the home! The open kitchen has a large table and bar area perfect for spending time together and we loved the covered balcony that’s right off the kitchen….and those water views were everything and perfect for sunset happy hour! In the evening after we came home from dinner (Mr. P's is a MUST) we hung out by the firepit/patio. The space was large enough to accommodate us with the Adirondack chairs, porch swing, and sitting wall that wraps around the firepit so we could all enjoy the warmth of the fire. I highly recommend Crazybirds and visiting the City of Southport!
We we enjoyed our short stay. Property is nice however there is no living space to gather. Media room is small and is not a good space for adults or smaller children.
The location is great and a nice property Issues - Did not expect to have to make all the beds upon arrival. - Pillows are all flat - please upgrade - all the mattresses (except for the King) need to be replaced. They are great for kids but not for adults - No living room - must have missed that in the description.
