Tricks and tips to get the very best vacation property experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Summer time is high season in Oak Island. Booking your Cape Fear area vacation home in Spring or Fall is our best tip for saving money on your vacation home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season.
• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during Winter holiday gatherings. 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 if your group qualifies for a discount.
• Property management companies frequently offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Cape Fear area visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, travel guide magazines have offers and deals for local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Narrow your Search:

• First, have your group choose trip dates and a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. Cozy Off the Dunes cottage, Breathtaking views, has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally available on booking websites. Otherwise, email the property management company before you book your home. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks. You'll need to determine what bed configuration is suitable for your trip.
• If there's a specific Cape Fear area beach you are enamored with, search for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you must book a pet-friendly vacation rental. Request details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Be aware that some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

More tips for your stay:

• Get the property manager's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental. Store the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• Upon check-in, make note of any damages to the property and immediately alert the host. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respect your neighbors. Often, adjacent homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently 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 BBQ?
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are out, just like you would back home.
• When it's time to leave, take a walk-through to confirm you didn't leave anything behind. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Leave a review! Property owners rely on good reviews to compel future reservations. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other families will appreciate that you share your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
