Our condo is just a short drive away from the port city of Wilmington where you will find shopping, eateries, and the historic downtown district filled with interesting sites and experiences. Wilmington is the home of the North Carolina Azalea Festival held in April featuring live musical and theater performances, garden and historic home tours, outdoor activities, food, and crafts. Other points of interest in Wilmington are the USS North Carolina Battleship and Museum. Wilmington and surrounding areas/beaches have also become a hot spot for Hollywood Film Directors for film making locations and tv show locations. You never know what Hollywood stars you will run into. I have seen many.

In Fort Fisher area there is an award winning aquarium or you can take a ferry across the Cape Fear River to a appealing town called Southport with many stores and eateries. For all those history fanatics, visit Fort Fisher museum that features items from the American Civil War.

How to book the best Cape Fear area vacation rental experience:

When to book & When to go:

• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer rentals during holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Booking in the Fall or Spring is a great way to save money on your vacation. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host if your group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Booking websites typically offer their guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Many management companies supply Cape Fear area area visitor guide magazines which include special offers, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Cape Fear area visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Filter your rental search:

• Start by having your family select dates and a maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. ????BEACHFRONT ELM IS CALLING????\n~Oceanfront~Private Beach Access~Pool~ has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually available on booking websites. Otherwise, email or call the property management company before you reserve the rental. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches. You will need to work out what configuration is optimal for your family.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your agreement! Additional fees or costs may be applied to your contract.
• Is your group looking for unique amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters. Use these filters to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking

Advice for a great stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the instructions to your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, elevator or thermostat. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents many concerns.
• Keep your rental home locked while you're gone! Don't let thieves spoil your trip.
• To make certain damages aren't attributed to your stay, note any problem areas upon check in. Contact the host right away to relay any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud visitors disrupting your peace. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and places you would've never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the property to make sure you've collected all of your things. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the property one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take photos of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a wonderful stay? Most rental managers make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
