Incredible location that’s quiet but walkable everywhere. Elevator to the second floor makes it easy to haul suitcases and groceries. Loved the view from the generous deck and living room. Responsive host acted quickly when we had a minor appliance malfunction.

Everything was great from the responsiveness of the owner to the condo to the localation to downtown to the view of the marina. We really couldn't have asked for a better VRBO choice for the week. Building also had an elevator & parking for our car and so many amenities in the condo. I would highly recommend this place. It was super clean and really had everything we needed for our stay.

Everything about Butch’s Unit is outstanding. We have stayed multiple times and feel it is our Southport home away from home. The Unit is immaculate, thanks to his outstanding housekeeper, and everything is in perfect condition. There have been recent updates to the inside and outside of the Condo complex, which added to the excellence. Location is an easy walk to shops, restaurants, and the waterfront. Views are so relaxing, and the rocking chairs are perfect. Hope to be back for a longer stay this winter.

View from the living room and deck are wonderful! And the location in town near all the activities is great! But we wished it had been cleaner and updated a little more. The furniture is downtrodden and the stove wasn't clean. But otherwise, we were happy there.

The condo was immaculate and the views were gorgeous. We loved staying here and this property allowed us to do everything we wanted in Southport and it was a great jumping off point to other parts of the NC coast. We couldn’t ask for more and the host was amazing to deal with.

It's so nice when a place not only meets your expectations, but exceeds them! Everything was just as pictured, and on top of that the condo was very neat, clean, and so well stocked! We had everything we needed, including all the soaps you need, plenty of linens, including black wash cloths for makeup removal, and the towels were big and plush! Oh, and the toilet paper and paper towels were even good quality, which sounds like a small thing, but matters to me! And the view was wonderful, overlooking the marina and the marsh walk, which I love! And the porch overlooking it was so long and wide, with plenty of seating choices to sit and take it all in! We even got a birds eye view of some of the filming the the Netflix Series "The Waterfront." Close proximity to everything! We just loved it, and definitely want to return! Also, communication with Butch was awesome!

Everything was great and was exactly as the listing stated. The condo was spacious and everything we needed was there except for a golf cart and a boat. lol The only real problem we had was the couple that was on the third floor above us, it almost felt like they were doing it intentionally Sometimes at 4:30 in the morning until midnight. You could hear every “stomping” footstep they took and their dog barking. With the exception of that, we had a great time! I don’t know if that couple lives there or if they were renting but we would not stay there again if we knew they were going to be there.

Absolutely the best spot to stay in Southport. The condo is within a 10 minute walk of pretty much everything. We walked nearly everywhere we went. Restaurants are close by but far enough away that the area around the condo is quiet and peaceful. The view is gorgeous from a large spacious porch. Beds are super comfy, soft linens, and a nice well stocked kitchen. Butch is helpful and super responsive. Highly recommend!!

The minute we opened the door: Beautiful view, beautiful decor, the best location, spotlessly clean. The owner was fantastic & prompt when we had questions. You can tell that this condo is well loved by the owners, with no detail missed. Like a 5 star luxury hotel. Convenient to walk to restaurants, etc. Huge private deck to watch boats go by & feel the breeze. You will not want to leave! Would stay here again and again!

We enjoyed our stay at this spacious two-bedroom condo on the second floor. We enjoyed many hours on the rocking chairs on porch facing the water. Beautiful views! In addition, they location was perfect for exploring the town on the golf cart we rented. Fun shops, good food and live music were all found in Southport.

As great as the pictures are on the listing for this condo, they do not do it justice! The location is great, the town is walkable from the rental, especially the restaurants at the yacht basin. The deck was a favorite spot to drink morning coffee and watch the boat traffic, those container ships are crazy!! The rooms are spacious, and the kitchen is so well stocked with everything you need. This condo is a perfect jumping off spot for all beach adventures: Oak Island, Bald Head (a must visit), plus the ferry to Fort Fisher and the aquarium. I cannot wait to come back for another visit, and this property will definitely be my ‘go to’. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

Butch's(Robert) condo was perfect for us. We arrived by boat and had a slip in the marina. Easy walk across to the condo. The location is ideal. Walking distance to everything in Southport. Close to the restaurants and bars on the old yacht basin. The view from the covered porch of the marina and Cape Fear River is amazing. Butch was proactive and a great communicator. The condo is well stocked with essentials. We would definitely stay here again.

The property was great. The owner communication was awesome. Before I even realized there was a hurricane threatening to ruin our plans the owner had reached out to let us know and that he would keep us informed. Which he then followed up on. Luckily it didn't overly effect the Southport area and we were able to proceed with our trip.

Everything about Butch’s place is excellent! We have enjoyed several stays and it’s so clean and comfortable that we settle in quickly even if a short stay. The views from the deck are amazing, the convenience of walking to shops, restaurants, and Waterfront Park is 10 mins at most if you stroll. We highly recommend!

The condo is in an excellent location overlooking the water and downtown Southport. You can walk to restaurants, shops, and along the waterfront. The condo is beautiful and the owner is very easy to communicate with about check-in and check-out. Always a great trip.

My wife and I love Southport and we wanted to take a spring trip to relax and recharge. The accommodations were excellent. Great views, great location and a great host. Butch responded to any questions very quickly and made sure that our stay was pleasant. We will be back for sure.
