Our top Rental booking tips and tricks:

When to go & When to book:

• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer vacation rentals during holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are the most expensive season in coastal NC. To find the best value, change your group's vacation week to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer excellent temperatures, , and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your group.
• Booking websites usually offer customers an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Find a copy of your local Cape Fear area area magazine when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guides contain deals for nearby accommodations and attractions.

Finding the perfect vacation rental:

• Begin by choosing trip dates and a max budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Canal front views, gorgeous sunsets and your own boat dock! has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly accessible on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email the property manager before you book the vacation property. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Traveling with pets? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your agreement! Pet fees or charges applied to your agreement.
• Visiting for a single event or attraction? If so, use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. .

Tips for your stay:

• Get the owner's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Upon check-in, make note of any damages to the property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are often a great source for finding the best local scenic spots.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental to make sure you've collected everything. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a great time? Most rental management companies make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your rental property and/or host was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
