The cameras are turned ON during rental season ONLY between 10 am and 4 pm on Saturdays, check in day.

The cameras are turned OFF after 4 pm on Saturdays and remain OFF during your stay. They remain ON at all times in the off season.

Although we have the off season blocked off for personal use, we would consider renting the home during that time if we are not going to be there. We try to get there as often as we can, and sometimes we don't know until a few days before. But e-mail us if you are considering a last min. fall, winter or spring hideaway to the beach!

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

Sticking to your budget:

• The earlier your group can book a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The best rental homes are reserved very early. Reserving your rental property six - twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and book your rental property.
• Summer is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. To get the best value, shift your trip dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer warmer temperatures, , and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer. 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? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Property managers sometimes offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites often offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you 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 disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Many rental management companies supply Cape Fear area area travel guide magazines which include special deals, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Cape Fear area visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Make a plan and choose your Cape Fear area vacation home:

• To start, have your group choose the best dates and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your group requires. Our Home Away From Home Can Be Yours! Large home with private pool and elevator! has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is almost always accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, email the host before you book the rental. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Traveling with pets? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your agreement! Additional pet fees or applied to your agreement.
• If there's a certain Cape Fear area attraction you are crazy about, keep an eye out for homes that are either near by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. .

More considerations:

• Store the manager's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental home while you are away. Keep your property safe!
• Record any issues with the property at check in, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are valuable if a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful vacationers bothering your home life. Apply the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and places you would've not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the rental to confirm you've collected all belongings. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did you have a wonderful time? Many rental management companies make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your property and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
