Tips and Tricks for getting the perfect Holden Beach rental experience:

Finding your perfect vacation home:

• June, July, and August are high season in the Cape Fear area area. To find the best value, try changing your family's Cape Fear area vacation to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer great weather, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic.
• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Booking websites typically offer guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.
• Find a copy of your local Cape Fear area area magazine upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great articles, travel guides have discounts for local accommodations and attractions.

Choosing the best vacation rental in the Cape Fear area area:

• First, have your family decide on trip dates and a budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your family needs. \"Hawk's Nest\" Canal Pet Friendly Home, 4 Bedrooms \/ 2 Bathrooms has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly available on booking websites. If not, call the property management company before you book the vacation property. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Does your group require special amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to search for a property that allows animals. Ask for information on breed, size, and type restrictions. Note that some property owners charge additional pet fees.

Considerations for your stay:

• Add the property manager's contact info to your phone. Understand and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Make a record of any issues with the rental upon arrival, and immediately contact the owner. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are helpful if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can usually 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 fishing?
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by locking the property when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected all belongings. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Remember to leave a review! Property managers rely on great reviews to compel more bookings. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your experience find their best vacation rental. 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 expeditiously to solve it.
