Tips to get the optimal vacation home experience:

When to book & When to go:

• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer time is high season in the Cape Fear area area. Reserve your rental property in the Fall or Spring to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities.
• Some property managers offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Cape Fear area area magazine when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitors guides have coupons for nearby tours and attractions.

Choosing and booking the bestrental home:

• Start by choosing a vacation week and a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration you need. Pet-friendly scenic creekside 3BR home - huge yard has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally available on booking pages. If they are not listed, call the property owner before reserving the vacation home. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you must reserve a property that allows animals. Ask for details on breed, size, and type requirements. Be aware that some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Are you visiting for a specific event? Try a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking.

More tips for your stay:

• Add the host's contact info to your phone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or kitchen appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent many problems.
• Keep the property locked while you're out! Don't let crooks spoil your vacation.
• To make sure no damages are linked to your stay, inspect the rental for any problem areas upon your arrival. Contact the host immediately to report your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be useful.
• Respect your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Just prior to departing, complete a final walk-through to make sure you didn't forget any personal items. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the rental a final time and scan for any damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, remember to take photographs of the property to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on good ratings to compel new reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationers will will be grateful for your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
