Tips to get the optimal rental experience:

Getting the best value:

• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Reserve your Cape Fear area vacation home in Spring or Fall to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host if your group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer customers an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Cape Fear area area magazine when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local information, travel guide magazines have coupons for local shops and restaurants.

Planning and choosing the best Cape Fear area rental:

• Select a group lead, select your vacation dates, and select a maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your family requires. 4BR\/3BA Home - Oceanfront, Dog friendly and Steps to the beach, Sleeps 10 has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, email or call the property management company before booking your rental. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to determine what configuration is right for your group.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly vacation rental. Request information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Note that some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a specific event or attraction? Try a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

More tips for your stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the directions to your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, elevator or coffee maker. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents quite a few problems.
• Lock your rental home while you are away. Protect your property!
• Note any damages to the rental during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be beneficial if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Respect your neighbors. Often times, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Re-check the rental property to make sure that you've packed all of your family's items on check-out day. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the rental one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host isn't available, ensure that you take video and pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Did you have a excellent time? Many rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property manager was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was out of order and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
