Tips and Tricks to get the optimal Cape Fear area rental experience:

Sticking to a rental home budget:

• Summertime is high season in Oak Island. Book your Cape Fear area rental home in Fall or Spring to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property managers offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Ask your property manager if discounts are available for your group.
• Booking websites usually offer renters an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Many rental management companies supply Cape Fear area area travel guides that include special deals, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• To start, have your family commit to a vacation week and a budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. 2 Bedroom 1.5 Bath House, Walk to the Beach, Dog Friendly, Sleeps 5 has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts is regularly accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, reach out to the host before you reserve the vacation home. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to determine what is right for your vacation family.
• Does your family require special amenities? Most rental websites include amenity lists and search filters.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. .
• Traveling with pets? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your rental agreement! Additional pet fees or charges may be applied to your agreement.

More considerations:

• Add the host's phone number to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• To make certain that damages aren't linked to your family's visit, record any problem areas upon your arrival. Speak to the property manager right away to report any issues. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor. Often, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your vacation home while you are away. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• Double-check the rental property to confirm that you've packed all personal items at departure. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property a final time and scan for any damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can. If the manager is not available, remember to take photographs of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a wonderful stay? Many rental management companies make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your property and/or property management company was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was out of order and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
