How to get the best Bald Head Island vacation property experience:

When to reserve a Cape Fear area rental home & When to go:

• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• To find the best value, consider shifting your group's vacation dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer warmer weather, , and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer.
• Hosts sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer their guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually costs anywhere 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, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Look for your local Cape Fear area visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitor guide magazines have coupons for local accommodations, tours and attractions.

Planning and picking the right Cape Fear area rental:

• To start, have your group agree to date ranges and a max budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration you need. \"The Palms\" is nestled on a secluded half acre in the forest. ThePalmsHouse.com has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally available online. If you don't see them listed, email the property manager before you reserve the home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to establish which bed configuration is right for your vacation group.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you'll need to find a pet-friendly vacation rental. Get specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Be aware that some property managers charge additional pet fees.
• Is your group looking for specific amenities? Most websites include search filters for amenities.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Additional considerations:

• Get the property manager's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, television set or kitchen appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent many difficulties.
• Lock your rental while you are out and about. Keep your property safe!
• To make certain that damages aren't attributed to your family's stay, make note of any problem areas when you arrive. text the rental manager right away to report any issues. If there is a dispute, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be useful.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often times, nearby homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all personal items. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did you have a wonderful stay? Most rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property management company was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
