Tips and Tricks to get the very best Cape Fear area vacation home experience:

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

• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. To get the best value, try shifting your group's vacation to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer warmer weather, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic.
• Some property management companies offer rate reductions for veterans. Ask your property manager if rate reductions are available for your group before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Look for your local Cape Fear area area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guides have money saving offers on local shops and restaurants.

• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are away, just like you would back home.
• At Check-in, record any damages to the property and immediately alert the host. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Respect the neighborhood. Frequently, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
