Tips and Tricks for getting the best Brunswick area rental experience:

When to book & When to go:

• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Oak Island. Reserve your Brunswick area vacation home in Fall or Spring to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Brunswick area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Some property management companies offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers often offer customers an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Brunswick area visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local articles, visitors guides have money saving offers on nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• To start, have your group select trip dates and a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. 10BR 12 Full Bath, 2 Half Bath Home, Ocean View, Dog Friendly, 2 Pools, Sleeps has 11 bedrooms and 14 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Brunswick area vacation rental search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally available on booking websites. Otherwise, email or call the property management company before reserving the property. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, search for a rental that allows animals. Get details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Some property owners charge additional pet fees.
• If there's a certain Brunswick area beach you are enamored with, search for properties that are either near by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

During your stay:

• Get the owner's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental. Store the manager's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, television set or kitchen appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents lots of problems.
• Keep your rental home locked while you are away! Don't let burglars ruin your holiday.
• To ensure that damages aren't linked to your stay, inspect the property for any problem areas upon check in. Get in touch with the property manager right away to relay any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome visitors bothering your life at home. Use the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would have never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Upon check-out, take a walk-through to confirm you did not forget any personal items. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Remember to leave a review! Property managers rely on excellent reviews to drive future reservations. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other families will will be grateful for your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
