Tricks and tips to get the perfect rental experience:

Getting the most from your vacation rental budget:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. To find the best value, consider changing your trip dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer pleasant temperatures, , and reduced traffic.
• The sooner you can reserve a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The most desirable properties are booked very early. Reserving your rental home up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation home.
• Hosts sometimes offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers often offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Find a copy of your local Brunswick area area magazine upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitor guide magazines have deals for nearby tours and attractions.

How to select the best vacation rental:

• Select a group lead, choose your vacation dates, and choose a maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Cozy, lower unit located in timeless Yaupon and only 800 feet from the beach! has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is regularly accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, call the property owner before booking the vacation home. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Does your family require unique amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities. Use these to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. .
• Some rental properties allow pets, and others don't. Allowable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask your host about allowable breeds and types before booking.

Tips for a great stay:

• Take a copy of the owner's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental.
• Make a record of any issues with the property during check in, and immediately send them to the property manager. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are very helpful if a dispute is filed.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or kitchen appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief call prevents quite a few issues.
• Be respectful. Often times, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are away, just like you would back home.
• Re-check every room of the property to confirm that you've packed all personal items at departure. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental one final time and look for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the host isn't available, ensure that you take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a wonderful vacation? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your rental property and/or host was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was imperfect and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
