Tricks and tips for getting the perfect Brunswick area vacation property experience:

Get the best rental value:

• Book your Brunswick area vacation home in Fall or Spring to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. 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? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites often offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Brunswick area area travel guide magazines which will include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Brunswick area area magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

How to pick the best vacation home in Oak Island:

• Begin by selecting your potential vacation weeks and a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Oceanfront Walk to Pier & Restaurants, Shops-Dog Friendly-2 Dogs Allowed has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property owner before booking the property. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• If there's an individual Brunswick area beach you are crazy about, keep an eye out for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater to your desires.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to book a property that allows animals. Get specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.

Additional considerations:

• Put the owner's information in your smartphone.
• Upon check-in, document any damages to the property and immediately contact the host. Record all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, stereo or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent a lot of issues.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud visitors disrupting your life at home. Practice the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would have not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Lock your rental while you're out. Keep your property safe!
• On check-out day, complete a walk-through to make sure you did not leave anything behind. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your group have a fantastic time? Many rental websites make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your property and/or host was wonderful, they would love to hear it. If anything was imperfect 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.
