Top Smith Island Museum of History Hotel Reviews

River Hotel of Southport

River Hotel of Southport

10/10 Excellent
"The location is great. Far enough out of the town center so noise isn’t a factor yet close enough to walk to town and restaurants. Staff is only in from 8am-8pm but are accommodating if needs outside of this time if they are told, like late check ins. Room was very clean. King bed was comfortable and had a small kitchen full stocked. Only downside to our room 111 was we wanted a balcony with a view of the Cape Fear River and we could see it but was a partial and the main view was weeds and backside of hotel. Would definitely stay again. Pool was small only 4ft and the beach front was nice. Dock was nice and plenty of seating outside."
