Tips to get the optimal vacation home experience:

When to visit & When to reserve a rental home:

• Summer is high season in the Cape Fear area area. Book your Cape Fear area rental property in Fall or Spring months to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often open twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts or promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites typically offer customers an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for details.
• Look for your local Cape Fear area visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great information, visitors guide magazines contain money saving offers on nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Narrow your rental Search:

• Choose vacation week and max budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your group needs. Islands on Snapper, Walk to Beach & Tiki Bar has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is generally accessible on booking websites. Otherwise, reach out to the property owner before you reserve your rental. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to establish which bed configuration is optimal for your vacation group.
• If there's a specific Cape Fear area beach you love, look for homes that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. .
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly rental. Get details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Be aware that some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.

Advice for your stay:

• Take a copy of the host's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home.
• During check-in, document any damages to the property and immediately alert the owner. Record all coorespondence.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be respectful. Often times, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Keep the property locked while you're out! Don't let thieves spoil your holiday.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the rental to confirm you've collected all belongings. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental one final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, take video of the property to record its condition.
• Did your family have a great time? Most rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property management company was wonderful, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was imperfect and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
