What Happened?

I reached out to host via email a little over a week prior to our arrival, no response. I called the morning of our travel, no response. Agter a 6.5 hour drive, we arrived and I call again no, response. I called VRBO customer service, the unit the representative said we were assigned to hadn't been serviced. Beds were unmade and glasses were in the sink. Called customer service again and sent requested photos. Then representative put me in contact with host. Host stated she would call back in three minutes, never happened. A gentleman across the driveway put me in touch with the manager who arrived informing us we were assigned to a different unit. That unit was clean, but no linen was on the beds. We had to service the beds.

Comfortable and cozy

We love visiting Southport and this location is great and walkable to downtown. The accommodations were very nice and clean and cozy. Ample room for 4-6 with a pullout sofa and two nice baths. We will be back !

A Lovely Home

My husband and I stayed with our small dog in February. The home is wonderful on all counts. We had more room than we needed. Two couples or a family would be quite comfortable. The location is great, in a quiet neighborhgood close to downtown and very dog-friendly. The pond out back draws interesting wildlife including a pretty red fox that passes through daily. The home is quite well-equipped with updated appliances and more supplies than we normally see in vacation rentals. I especially appreciated that we did not have to buy paper products, plastic wrap, cleaning supplies, trash bags, or similar staple items that some vacation rentals in the area leave out. Other touches were great, as well: soft linens, quality pillows, comfortable beds, fluffy towels, soft-close cabinets, stone countertops, good water pressure, roomy showers, quality fixtures, and nice workmanship in the home's construction. (I know I sound like a Realtor, but I might have offered to buy the place if I lived in the area). Bottom line: this is a great property and recommended for a short visit or for a more extended stay.

About the host

Hosted by Shelly Harney

Steve and Shelly moved from CT to live in the wonderful community of Southport, a place that captures many people's hearts. This quaint seaside village was once named "The Happiest Seaside Town in the US". We love the restaurants and entertainment of Southport and the beaches and concerts in Oak Island. Both places are special in their own ways. We hope you enjoy it here as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

We created this property around the pond because it is such a lively spot. The Ibis birds flock here in the springtime to get fresh water to feed their babies who live on the island in the Cape Fear River. There are many other birds and wildlife. At sunset, the sun displays its glorious colors across the pond. It's peaceful to watch and the neighborhood is full of wonderful people.

What makes this property unique

From Ibis Landing, guests can walk to town or rent a golf cart to get out and explore. The marina is around the corner as well as the waterfront and shops. Guests staying at Ibis Landing are welcome to use the facilities at our beach property on Oak Island called The Pelican Landing Villas. There you will find a saltwater pool and a beach access across the street. Ask us for the details or look at the website for more information.
