Perfectly named from a time when a beach vacation was calming. Have a cookout on the charcoal grille with family and friends or sit out on the oceanfront deck and take in handsome ocean vistas, sounds of the waves rolling onto shore, and the healing salt sea air. Watch the kids play or the surf fisherman bring in the day's catch on the sandy shore below. "These Are The Days" offers great opportunity to slow down and savor unobstructed, expansive vistas of the beach, an outdoor shower, foot wash station, and the huge windows on the ocean side of the home that maximize the ocean vistas as you relax and relax in the living and dining areas. Watch the sunrise over breakfast or appreciate a charming sunset dinner.

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

How to get the best rental home value:

• To book the best rental home for your budget, we highly recommend booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at Brunswick area restaurants, tours, and activities.
• The sooner you can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental properties are reserved very early. Booking your vacation home up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and book your rental.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Booking websites often offer customers an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Brunswick area area visitors guides which will include special deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Selecting the best vacation rental:

• First, have your family commit to a vacation week and a budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. 2BR\/1BA, Oceanfront Cottage,Amazing Views of Ocean, Dog Friendly, Sleeps 6 has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed types is usually available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property owner before you reserve your home. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction? Try a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. .
• Some properties allow pets, and some don't. Allowable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the host about allowable breeds and types before booking.

Additional considerations:

• Take a copy of the property manager's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property. We recommend storing the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Record any issues with the property during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that can be useful if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, elevator or kitchen appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent many issues.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You'll increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are an excellent source for finding the best local attractions.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are away, just like you would at home.
• Re-check the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean 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.
• Did you have a wonderful time? Many rental management companies make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or host was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was out of order and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
