Tips and Tricks to get the best Cape Fear area vacation rental experience:

Sticking to a rental budget:

• Reserve your rental home in Fall or Spring to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property managers offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Check with your host or property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites frequently offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, travel guides have offers and deals for nearby accommodations, tours and attractions.

Narrow your rental Search:

• To start, have your group select a vacation week and a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration you need. Cozy Oceanfront Beach House 5Bed\/3Bath Sleeps 14 with Pool Pet Friendly has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Cape Fear area vacation rental search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed types is generally accessible on booking websites. If not, email the property manager before you book your rental. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds.
• Does your group require particular amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your group is bringing pets, search for a property that allows animals. Make sure to ask for information on breed, size, and type restrictions. Usually, property managers charge pet deposits and fees.

During your stay:

• Take a copy of the owner's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property. We recommend storing the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• During check-in, note any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Be respectful. Frequently, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your vacation home while you are out and about. Keep your property safe!
• Upon check-out, take a final walk-through to confirm you did not forget anything. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property one final time and keep an eye out for damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, take photos of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a excellent time? Most rental managers make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property manager was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was inoperable and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
