Strategies for getting the perfect Cape Fear area vacation property experience:

Find your perfect rental home:

• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Reserve your vacation in Spring or Fall to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Some owners offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites usually offer customers an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Cape Fear area area travel guide magazines which often include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local companies, or through a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Cape Fear area area magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Planning, picking, and booking a perfectvacation home:

• First, have your family choose dates and a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration you need. The Great Escape- A Waterfront Retreat has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often available online. If they are not listed, email or call the property owner before reserving the vacation home. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds. You will need to work out what configuration is right for your trip.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and some don't. Acceptable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the owner about pet restrictions before booking.
• If there's a specific Cape Fear area beach you simply love, search for homes that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

More tips for your stay:

• Add the property manager's information to your phone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, television set or coffee maker. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent many problems.
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental while you are away, just like you would back home.
• To make sure that damages aren't attributed to your visit, record any problem areas when you arrive. message the property manager immediately to document any damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud vacationers disrupting your life at home. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would've never otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Just prior to departing, complete a final walk-through to make sure you did not forget any personal items. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. 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 your group have a wonderful vacation? Most rental managers make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property management company was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
