How to find the best Cape Fear area rental experience:

Get the most from your budget:

• The earlier you can book, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are reserved very early. Booking your rental property 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and book your rental property.
• Summer time is high season in the Cape Fear area area. To find the best rental for your budget, we strongly suggest booking in Fall or Spring months.

Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Property management companies typically offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
