Our top Vacation rental booking tips:

When to book & When to go:

• Reserve your rental home in the Fall or Spring to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• The earlier your group can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The best vacation rentals are reserved early. Reserving your vacation home up to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and book your rental home.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host if your family qualifies for a price reduction.
• Booking websites typically offer renters an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually costs between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Look for your local Cape Fear area area magazine upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great information, travel guides have money saving offers on local accommodations, tours and attractions.

Finding the best rental:

• Start by selecting your trip dates and a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. The Marlin House - Beautiful Canal Home! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is normally accessible online. If not, contact the host before booking your home. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds.
• Visiting for a single attraction? If so, use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. .
• Some properties allow pets, and others do not. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask your host about your furry family members before booking.

More tips for your visit:

• Be sure you get the host's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home. Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• Note any issues with the rental during check in, and immediately send them to the owner. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are useful if a dispute is filed.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors can be a terrific source for finding the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Lock your rental while you're away. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the rental property to make sure you've collected all of your things. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a wonderful stay? Most rental management companies make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your rental property and/or host was wonderful, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
