About STACY DOTSON

We are university professors and occupational therapists. Our first visit to Southport together was in 1991. I grew up on the Texas Gulf Coast, my husband in Eastern North Carolina. Both of us lived on Galveston Island for a number of years and our first visit to Southport so connected with both of our personal histories that we have always returned year after year. While in Southport, we love to bike ride, take the paddleboard out, watch the boaters, walk and play with our dogs, watch the pelicans, read, relax, and dream.

One of my favorite hobbies while in Southport is making homemade soap filled with essential oils. The process takes about 4 hours of time, so as I work I can look out the windows to get a beautiful changing view of the world.

STACY DOTSON purchased this condo in 2011
Why STACY DOTSON chose Southport

The condo’s location is in the heart of Southport. The opportunity to watch the happenings at the Southport Marina, look out towards Old Baldy and the Oak Island lighthouses and watch as small boats and large ships move within the water channels provides constant entertainment. Watching the tidal changes within the Salt Marsh and the Pelicans’ activity provides a truly relaxing experience. Fishing opportunities are right outside the door. Caswell Beach is just a short drive away, so within a few minutes of leaving the condo you can be walking on the beach next to the Oak Island Lighthouse instead of just looking at it. Southport truly is a relaxation destination.

What makes this condo unique

The view and being next to the water calms the soul. It truly is a Safe Haven.

Great Condo!

  • 4 of 5
  • Submitted: Jun 1, 2013
  • Stayed: May 2013
The condo is much bigger than it appears in the photos! And is nicely appointed, very clean and well-maintained. The view is awesome and relaxing. We really enjoyed our trip here! Sitting on the porch watching the water and boats was the highlight. Several restaurants are just a short walk away which was nice. The A/C broke during our stay but it was fixed within hours of reporting it. There isn't a dvd player, but we only brought 1 movie so it didn't put a damper on our trip. The elevator was also a plus for lugging all our things and our toddler. I wish it had a king bed, but aside from that I wouldn't change a thing! For dining: 'Fishy Fishy Café' was excellent and enjoyed by everyone. 'Yacht Basin Eatery' wasn't a favorite for everyone and was overpriced. 'Baked with Love' has a delicious roasted red pepper/gouda soup we got to go. There's also grocery stores and a Walmart nearby. Southport is a charming town with friendly people. We can't wait to return!

Owner's Response: I'm glad your family enjoyed the visit to Southport, and again I apologize about the air conditioner malfunction. Thank goodness for that nice breeze and comfortable temp outside while it was being repaired. Your Safe Haven comments while we talked on the deck reminded me about the dvd player I had in my office. It is ready for your next visit. See y'all soon.
Thanks,
Stacy

Relaxing retreat

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: May 4, 2013
  • Stayed: Apr 2013
We feel in love with this place as soon as we walked in the door. The view was beautiful. We found the condo had everything we needed (except for a pizza pan and cutter, iron and ironing board). We enjoyed walking around the area. A lot of time was spent out on the deck watching the boats and reading. The restaurants did not disappoint. We especially enjoyed Locals (breakfast, lunch and dinner), Taylor's (breakfast) and Loco Jo's (lunch). Also, you should try Port City Java. We WILL be back.

The only real drawback we found was if you can't sleep unless the room is completely dark then you need to bring an eye mask. The blinds don't block out the light very well. You won't need any nightlights. Other than that it's very quiet through the night.

Owner's Response: I am glad you enjoyed your stay. I encourage guest to let me know their comments and any request. As for the light coming in through the window I will add new curtains to help block the outside light. Everything else, pizza pan etc. will be available on your next visit. I look forward to seeing you soon.
Best, Stacy

We had a great time. Condo is beautiful. Had everything we needed and more. The deck overlooking water is breathtaking. Would highly recommend to anyone not only this condo but the city of Southport. We enjoyed Locals for breakfast and Loco Jo's.

Thanks again to Pelican Harbor, we once again enjoyed our New Year's stay in Southport. I am now 50, and am seriously hoping to retire someday in the same exact neighborhood. This year we had the added pleasure of having my 19 year old son from Indiana along for the trip. And of course the "outlaws" joined us for a few nights. So we were perfectly comfortable with our party of 5. Again, love the kitchen and the hardwoods.
