With direct beach access just a few steps away, you’re complimentary to take long strolls along the shore or build sandcastles with the kids whenever you please. After a day of fun, rinse off the sand in the private outdoor shower.

Strategies to get the best Cape Fear area rental experience:

Get the most from your rental budget:

• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Cape Fear area area. To get the best value, try changing your family's Cape Fear area trip dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer warmer weather, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Booking websites frequently offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Look for your local Cape Fear area visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, travel guides have deals for local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Select a group leader, select your dates, and select a maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your family requires. Beautiful 4BR 3.5BA House, Oceanfront, Dog Friendly, Sleeps 12 has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed types is commonly accessible online. Otherwise, call the property management company before booking the vacation property. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds. You will need to determine what is best for your vacation family.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly rental. Make sure to ask for details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Be aware that some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a particular Cape Fear area beach you crave, keep an eye out for homes that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Remember to confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental

Considerations for your stay:

• Add the property manager's contact info to your phone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, television set or appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent a lot of issues.
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home while you are away, just like you would back home.
• Make a record of any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately e-mail them to the owner. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be helpful if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Respect your neighbors. Often, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Double-check the rental property to confirm that you've packed all belongings on check-out day. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Leave feedback! Property owners rely on excellent ratings to propel more reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will will be grateful for your feedback find their best vacation home. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
