Tricks and tips to get the optimal Cape Fear area vacation home experience:

Sticking to your rental home budget:

• To get the largest vacation home within budget, we highly recommend booking in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll benefit from lower rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at Cape Fear area restaurants, beaches, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months.
• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules often open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host whether your family qualifies for a discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Cape Fear area area visitors guide magazines which will include special offers, either offered directly by local companies, or through a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Cape Fear area visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

• Begin by selecting your a vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. Historic home in downtown Wilmington, NC has 3 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is often accessible online. If they are not listed, call the property owner before you reserve the vacation property. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• If there's a particular Cape Fear area destination you are crazy about, look for properties that are either close by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. .
• If your group is bringing pets, you must book a rental that allows animals. Request details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Be aware that some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

More considerations for your visit:

• Take a copy of the host's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property. We recommend storing the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Upon arrival, record any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the host. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, elevator or appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent lots of issues.
• Be respectful. Often, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are away, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all personal items. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Leave feedback! Property owners rely on good reviews to inspire new bookings. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other families will appreciate that you share your feedback find their best vacation rental. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
