Our top Rental home tips:

How to get the best rental home value:

• June, July, and August are high season in the Cape Fear area area. To book the largest rental for your budget, we suggest booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at popular attractions and restaurants.
• The sooner your group can reserve a home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation homes are reserved very early. Booking your rental 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation rental.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host if your group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property managers typically offer customers an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guide magazines contain deals for nearby shops and restaurants.

How to choose the best vacation rental in Oak Island:

• First and foremost, have your group choose a vacation week and a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration you need. The Marsh: Cozy Cottage with Beautiful Marsh Views, Short Walk to Beach has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is usually accessible online. If you don't see them listed, contact the property manager before you book the vacation home. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches. You will need to establish what configuration is right for your vacation.
• If there's an individual Cape Fear area beach you are enamored with, search for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking
• If your group is traveling with pets, search for a rental that allows animals. Request specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Note that some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

More tips for your stay:

• We recommend storing the manager's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• To make sure no damages are linked to your family's stay, inspect the property for any problem areas upon check in. text the host right away to record any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors can be a fantastic source for finding the best local attractions.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are away, just like you would back home.
• Re-check every room of the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all belongings at departure. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental a final time and scan for any damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Leave a review! Hosts rely on excellent feedback to drive more reservations. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
