Getting the best Cape Fear area vacation rental experience:

Get the most from your budget:

• To get the best value, shift your family's Cape Fear area vacation week to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer excellent temperatures, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season. 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 your favorite beach.
• The earlier your group can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The best properties are booked very early. Reserving your vacation home six - twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation home.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies frequently offer their guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Cape Fear area visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great information, visitor guide magazines contain coupons for nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Finding the perfect rental home:

• Choose your vacation week and max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. Cozy Creekside Retreat with Private Pier, Gazebo and Water Access! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually available on booking websites. If they are not listed, contact the host before you reserve the vacation property. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Visiting for a specific attraction or event? If so, use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. .
• If your group is traveling with pets, filter your search for a property that allows animals. Get specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Be aware that some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

Advice for a smooth stay:

• Add the host's contact information to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• During arrival, note any damages to the property and immediately contact the host. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, elevator or thermostat. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent a lot of problems.
• Be a good neighbor. Often times, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can typically help. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your vacation home while you are out and about. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the rental property to make sure you've collected all personal belongings. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a great time? Most rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your property and/or property manager was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was amiss 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 review.
