When to visit Wilmington & When to reserve a Cape Fear area rental home:

• In the Cape Fear area area, The earlier your group can reserve a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are reserved early. Reserving your rental property up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation rental.

• Booking websites usually offer guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.

• First, have your group commit to date ranges and a budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration you need. The Garden District Flat has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed types is usually accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, contact the property manager before you book the home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to establish what is optimal for your vacation.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you must book a pet-friendly property. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Often, property owners charge additional pet fees.
• If there's a specific Cape Fear area destination you crave, keep an eye out for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking.

• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental when you are out, just like you would back home.
• Record any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the owner. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be very helpful if a dispute arises.
• Respect your neighbors. Often times, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?

• Go through the property a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the property manager is not available, remember to take video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a wonderful vacation? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property management company was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
