Tips and Tricks to get the perfect rental home experience:

Finding your perfect vacation home:

• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacation rentals during holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summertime is the most expensive season in Oak Island. To find the best value, shift your family's Cape Fear area trip dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer excellent weather, , and reduced traffic.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your vacationing group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Cape Fear area area visitor guide magazines that include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Choosing the best rental:

• Choose a group leader, choose your trip dates, and choose a maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration your family needs. 4BR\/3BA Home-Hot Tub-Close to Public Boat Ramp-3 Min to the Beach has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is commonly available online. If you don't see them listed, contact the property management company before you reserve the rental. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches.
• If your group is bringing pets, search for a pet-friendly property. Make sure to ask for information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Be aware that some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Are you visiting for a specific event or attraction? If so, use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. .

More tips for your visit:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Add a note with the instructions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, stereo or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call prevents quite a few issues.
• Lock your vacation home while you are out and about. Protect your property!
• To ensure that no damages are linked to your family's visit, make note of any problem areas during check in. E-mail the property manager right away to record any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud vacationers bothering your peace and quiet. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would have not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Double-check every room of the property to make sure that you've packed all of your family's items on check-out day. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a fantastic stay? Most rental websites make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property manager was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was out of order and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
