Tips to get the perfect Cape Fear area vacation rental experience:

When to visit & When to reserve a Wilmington rental home:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Book your vacation in Spring or Fall to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• The earlier you can book, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental homes are booked very early. Booking your vacation rental 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and book your vacation home.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host whether your family qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer renters an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Often, property management companies supply Cape Fear area area visitors guides which often include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Cape Fear area area magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Narrow your Search:

• Start by having your group select the best dates and a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Authentic Craftsman cottage - enclosed yard, lovely porch, W/D & great location has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually accessible online. If they are not listed, call the host before you reserve your rental. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Visiting for a specific attraction? Use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking.
• Some properties allow pets, and others do not. Acceptable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the property manager about allowable pet guidelines before booking.

Know before you go:

• Store the owner's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• At Check-in, document any issues with the property and immediately contact the owner. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often times, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. 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're away. Protect your property!
• When it's time to leave, complete a final walk-through to confirm you have not forget anything. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental a final time and look for any damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, remember to take photos of the property to record its condition.
• Remember to leave a review! Hosts rely on good ratings to propel more bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
