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

Cost saving strategies:

• The sooner you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best properties are booked very early. Reserving your rental 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental.
• Summer months are high season in Ocean Isle Beach. To get the best value, try changing your trip dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer excellent temperatures, , and greatly reduced traffic.
• Hosts sometimes offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies typically offer their guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.
• Many rental management companies supply Cape Fear area area travel guides which include special deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Cape Fear area visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Planning, selecting, and booking a perfectrental home:

• Select a designated group leader, choose your vacation week, and select a spending budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration your group requires. \"The Southern Buckeye\"-Brand New OIB 5BR + 5.5BA Retreat Loaded w\/Entertainment! has 5 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is normally available online. If you don't see them listed, email the property owner before you book your home. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds. You'll need to work out what bed configuration is suitable for your vacation group.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you must reserve a rental that allows animals. Get information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Be aware that some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Are you visiting for a single event? Try a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking.

Know before you go:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Add a note with the instructions to your smartphone, and take a printed copy.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental home while you are away. Protect your property!
• Document any issues with the property at check in, and immediately contact the owner. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that can be valuable if a dispute is filed.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Frequently, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Upon check-out, take a walk-through to confirm you haven't forget any personal items. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental one final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager is not available, ensure that you take pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a fantastic vacation? Many rental websites make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property management company was wonderful, they would love to hear about it. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct 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.
