Our top Rental home booking tips:

When to book & When to go:

• Summer is high season in Oak Island. To find the best value, shift your family's Brunswick area vacation to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer great weather, , and greatly reduced traffic.
• In the Brunswick area area, The sooner your group can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The best properties are booked very early. Reserving your vacation property 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation rental.
• Some property management companies offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites frequently offer customers an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
• Many rental management companies supply Brunswick area area visitors guide magazines that include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.
