Tricks and tips to get the best Bald Head Island vacation property experience:

When to visit & When to book:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. Booking your Cape Fear area vacation rental in Fall or Spring months is a good way to save money on your vacation home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable properties. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts and property managers offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group.
• Property management companies frequently offer their guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Often, management companies supply Cape Fear area area travel guide magazines which often include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Cape Fear area visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Selecting the best rental:

• Start by selecting potential vacation weeks and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your group needs. Welcome to The Wester House on Bald Head Island has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually available online. If you don't see them listed, email the host before you book the property. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If there's a certain Cape Fear area attraction you are enamored with, keep an eye out for homes that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental
• Traveling with pets? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional fees or costs could be applied to your invoice.

More tips for your visit:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the instructions to your smartphone.
• Make a record of any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately send them to the owner. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are useful if a dispute arises.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud visitors bothering your peaceful home. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and places you would have not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can typically help. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Lock your vacation home while you are away. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• On check-out day, complete a final walk-through to make sure you haven't leave anything behind. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host is not available, take photos and video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on great reviews to propel more reservations. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your feedback find their best vacation rental. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
