Strategies to get the best vacation property experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer is the most expensive season in the Cape Fear area area. To find the best rental home within budget, we strongly suggest booking in Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at the beach and popular attractions. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer renters an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Cape Fear area area visitor guides that include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Cape Fear area area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Planning, selecting, and booking the perfect Cape Fear area vacation home:

• First and foremost, have your family commit to date ranges and a budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your group needs. THE SHOAL SHACK - Oak Island, NC has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Cape Fear area vacation rental search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always available on booking pages. If not, email or call the property management company before you reserve your home. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to determine what is right for your vacation group.
• If your group is bringing pets, search for a pet-friendly rental. Request details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Note that some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.
• Looking for special amenities? Most websites include search filters with amenity lists. Use these filters to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. .

More tips for your visit:

• Get the owner's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental home while you're away. Keep your property safe!
• During arrival, note any damages to the property and immediately contact the owner. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Respect your neighbors. Often, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the property to make sure you've collected all personal belongings. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the property a final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the manager is not available, take photographs of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a wonderful stay? Many rental websites make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your property and/or host was wonderful, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
