Bring your fishing pole and choose from three piers, a chartered fishing trip or rent a boat and bring home your freshly caught dinner. Sunset boat tours, self-guided walking tours or a ghost tour are trendy outings. In an area steeped in history, visit the Maritime Museum, Ft. Anderson/Brunswick Town, the USS NC Battleship or take a ferry ride by car to the Fort Fisher Visitors Center and grounds and the Aquarium. Perhaps you choose to ride the passenger ferry to Bald Head Island for a day of dining and touring by golf cart or bicycle.

This bungalow is conveniently located with public access to tennis courts, parks with walking trails, yoga studios, exercise classes, kid’s playgrounds, skateboard parks and even a splash pad. Shelling, swimming, fishing, crabbing or touring the Oak Island lighthouse are among beach activities on close by Oak Island & Caswell Beach.

Tricks and tips to get the very best Cape Fear area rental home experience:

Get the best value:

• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are the most expensive season in coastal NC. To get the best value, change your family's Cape Fear area trip dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer great temperatures, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Property management companies sometimes offer special rates for veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies usually offer customers an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Cape Fear area visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, visitors guides have deals for nearby shops and restaurants.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Choose your vacation week and max budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your family needs. Pet Friendly Long-Term Rental - 25 Day Min. - Fenced Backyard - Grill has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always available online. If not, email the host before you reserve the home. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• If your group is bringing pets, you must book a pet-friendly vacation rental. Get specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Usually, property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Is your group looking for unique amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking.

Have a fantastic stay:

• Add the property manager's information to your smartphone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, intercom or appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents a lot of problems.
• Protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home while you are out, just like you would at home.
• At Check-in, record any damages to the property and immediately contact the property manager. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud vacationers disrupting your peace and quiet. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and attractions you would've not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected everything. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental one final time and scan for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the property manager isn't available, take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Property managers rely on excellent reviews to inspire future reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
