Tips and Tricks for getting the perfect vacation property experience:

Sticking to your budget:

To find the best value, consider shifting your family's Cape Fear area vacation week to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer great temperatures, , and reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
In the Cape Fear area area, The sooner you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable properties are reserved very early.

Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your family qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
Booking websites frequently offer their guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.

Choose a designated group leader, select your dates, and select a spending budget.

Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is commonly available on booking pages. If they are not listed, email or call the property management company before you book the rental. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches.
If there's a certain Cape Fear area attraction you simply love, browse rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your desires.

Advice for a terrific stay:

Be sure you get the owner's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your . Store the host's contact information in your smartphone.
Note any issues with the property at check in, and immediately contact the host. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that can be very helpful if a dispute arises.
Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
Respect the neighborhood. Often, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules is the right thing to do.
Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental when you are gone, just like you would at home.
When it's time to leave, complete a final walk-through to make sure you didn't forget any personal items. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
Go through the property a final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest walking through with the host whenever possible. If the host is not available, take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.

Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your review find their best vacation rental. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
