The Mad River Cottage

We had a great time. House was beautiful!

This was the most welcoming of properties - very nicely furnished with lots of interesting touches but not l over-the-top. The back yard was lovely and our dog enjoyed some roaming back there. The property is a short walk to the water and downtown Southport. Just a great time! The winery question…did not apply but the kitchen was well stocked.

The location is perfect with town center a short walk away and the water close by. The accommodations were pleasant and the screened porch a favorite.

Nice place great location.

This property was beautiful such a comfortable cottage and so unique. Great spot close to family amenities are many only problem I had was I couldn’t find the blow dryer they said was there. And one of the two coffee makers didn’t work so we just use the other one. Other than that place is perfect for anything you wanna do. I appreciate it thank you for letting us stay in your home

Lovely cottage in a quaint neighborhood. We were able to walk everywhere. Would definitely recommend.

Stay here once a year! I wouldn’t stay anywhere else!

We loved staying at the Mad River Cottage. The location is perfect to walk down to the waterfront, to local restaurants and stores, and to the marina. The street is also quiet. The screened in porch was great for relaxing after a day at the beach. The house was clean and well-appointed, and the host communicated quickly to address any issues. Would definitely recommend this property to anyone looking to visit Southport!

Check in was simple. Good old fashioned key! Loved the little cottsge and met the owner. Very sweet lady with a gorgeous kitty on her porch. Loved every single minute of this trip and will definitely be back. House offered everything we needed. Clean and open floor plan. Close to all our favorite spots.

Excellent property; quaint cottage. Be clear that there's only one full bath! Great cottage and great stay.

I love visiting Southport and come every year. This cottage is well located in the historic district. The furnishings are lovely and comfortable. Beautiful walks to the waterfront and along the shaded streets lined with historic cottages.

The moment we walked in, we were in love with this beach cottage! From the adorable decor to the inviting screened in porch, we felt comfortable and at home. The only recommendation I would make is to add a fan to the screened in porch. Other than that, it was perfect!!! We will definitely be back!

Love this place! The home is a quaint, historic cottage but with many modern updates. An easy stroll to the waterfront in Southport and to local shops and restaurants. Spent so much time on the screened porch just reading and relaxing. Pet friendly too! We will be back!

The house was absolutely gorgeous and super comfy! I loved sitting on the front porch reading and listening to the birds! The distance to the water is perfect for a nice stroll with my husband! I can’t wait to come back!

Lovely getaway to adorable Southport! The cottage could not be cuter or more accommodating. Easy walk to shopping, restaurants, and a stroll along the waterfront. Already looking at dates for another visit!

Cute, old building, with very creaky floors. Nice screened porch. Great walkable location. Message to host took several hours to respond. Could use front window treatments.

Very cute cottage in downtown Southport. The kitchen was well stocked and the home was immaculate.

Everything was expected and cottage was wonderful. Easy in and out and walk to everything. We will return again

I love this house. Very cute and just enough room. Also perfect for walking to everything you you would want to see. .i definitely will stay here again. Location is perfect.

Very well appointed, cozy, clean, and comfortable. Southport is my happy place.

We had a lovely long weekend, relaxing in autumn. We enjoyed drinking coffee on the screened in porch and walking around historic Southport.!

Great quiet location near everything.
