10/10 Excellent
"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Crazy Birds. The condo is wonderful. Check in & check out were both super simple and the hosts got back to me quickly when I had questions. The condo is super cute & decorated beautifully and with very high quality products (furniture, towels, appliances). Our kids loved playing video games and we enjoyed movie nights in the tv room. The dining area has great seating. We enjoyed relaxing on the balcony. The neighborhood pool is literally right around the corner and we had a blast swimming there. The town of Southport is the definition of charming. The hosts provide 4 beach cruiser bikes, which you can use to ride around the beautiful surrounding neighborhoods or explore the town. It's a very short walk from the condo to a handful of restaurants right on the marina, and just a little further to downtown Southport with tons of restaurants, a Christmas House, ice cream shops, a public library, parks etc. This is a town where people truly take pride in their homes and properties. Everything is beautiful, clean, and full of charm. It's only about a 20 min easy drive to the lovely Caswell beach that has a free parking lot. It's a nice clean sandy beach with calm waves (due to its geography). We also rode the ferry (only 7/vehicle) about 35 mins to Carolina Beach, a beach with bigger waves and a boardwalk with lots of shops and restaurants. We had such a lovely time on our vacation and HIGHLY recommend this property & the town of Southport."

"Excellent location and communications with the hosts! Loved watching the waves from the balcony and the pool was refreshing when we weren’t on the beach. Condo was a bit smaller than we expected but enough for 2 adults and 1 teen. A few maintenance issues but overall a well maintained unit. Thanks!"
