Quick stay in Southport

This was a great location in town and the cottage was perfect for us. My husband and I stayed with our teenage son and a friend while we were in town visiting friends. It was very clean and comfortable. The location was walkable to everything in town and very quiet with minimal traffic which was nice. We would love to stay again when we come back to Southport. The beds were comfortable, linens were provided and the home was very functional and convenient. Thanks!

Perfect location

We loved our stay in this Southport property. The house was very clean, the beds were comfortable and the kitchen had great utensils and appliances. We enjoyed the front porch and the short walk to shopping, restaurants and the waterfront. This was the Southport experience we were looking for and Sis' Cottage was perfect for our family.

Absolutely thrilled with Sis's Cottage. It was so very comfortable with everything (and I mean EVERYTHING) you could possibly need for your stay. No expense was spared in the lovely and fun nautical decor, kitchen supplies, bedding, etc. It was more than we could have possibly expected and we're grateful to whomever owns this property for providing the best of everything for a very successful vacation stay.

Celebrating a graduation!

We enjoyed our stay and found the cottage very clean, and welcoming with all the comforts of home. We especially enjoyed the nautical artwork and porch rocking chairs. The cottage is centrally located for easy walking distance to restaurants, coffee shops and shops. Hope to enjoy Sis’s Cottage again.

Perfect last minute get away!

My husband and I along with our young adult son and his girlfriend decided we needed a trip to the NC Coast, and Sis’s Cottage was the perfect spot! The house is exactly as listed. It was spotless and very well stocked! The only thing I did not realize before hand, the upstairs bedroom has a barn door into the bedroom, but not one into the bathroom. There is a barn door on the other side of the bathroom into the small bedroom with the twin bed. It wasn’t a big deal, just something I didn’t realize. We loved everything about the house. We will definitely return!

Great house and host

Overall fantastic stay! Me, my husband and mother loved the location and house, close to son’s home. Only 2 issues: some pans in cabinet had to be washed ( prob fault of previous renter); construction next door on both sides days after Christmas, not much of problem- workers not too loud and house well insulated— only effect was when dog went out he barked— but not much! Deacon was a good dog and had a great time too! Host was delightful and helpful with small booking issue!

Love this house

This is our second time staying here and we love Sis's Cottage. It's close to town, on a quiet street, and so clean! The weekend we stayed had a lot of Christmas festivities so the proximity to town made it easy to see some fun stuff! With it being pet friendly meant we could take our dog with us and she loved walking up and down the street! We will be back!
