How to find the best Cape Fear area vacation home experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Reserving a rental home in Spring or Fall is a good way to save money on your vacation. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable properties. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer rentals during holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Property managers sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites frequently offer renters an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Look for your local Cape Fear area visitors guide magazine upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, visitor guide magazines contain offers and deals for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Narrow your rental Search:

• Start by choosing your a vacation week and a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Charming Canal-Front Home, Private Pool, Boat Dock, and Short Walk to the Beach! has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always available on booking pages. If they are not listed, call the property management company before booking the rental. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• If there's a certain Cape Fear area beach you are crazy about, look for properties that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to ask about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you must book a property that allows animals. Get details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Be aware that some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

Some things to know before you go:

• Take a copy of the property manager's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your . We recommend storing the manager's information in your smartphone.
• Upon check-in, document any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the host. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often times, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental while you're out. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• Re-check the rental property to make sure that you've packed all of your family's items on check-out day. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental a final time and look for any damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave feedback! Property owners rely on good feedback to stimulate more reservations. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will will be grateful for your experience find their best rental home. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
