How to book the best vacation property experience:

How to get the best value:

• Summer months are the most expensive season along the coast of NC. To get the best value, change your trip dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer pleasant weather, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
• The earlier you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best properties are booked very early. Booking your rental property up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your rental property.
• Some property managers offer rate reductions for veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers typically offer renters an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Look for your local Brunswick area visitors guide magazine upon arrival. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great information, travel guides contain money saving offers on local accommodations, tours and attractions.

Choosing and booking a perfect Brunswick area rental home:

• First and foremost, have your family choose trip dates and a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration you need. Fabulous beach view! Large pool…across from beach access. Decks on both levels! has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, contact the property management company before you book your rental. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to determine what configuration is right for your trip.
• If there's a particular Brunswick area beach you are crazy about, browse rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• Remember to include your furry companions! Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your agreement! Additional fees or costs applied to your invoice.

More tips for your visit:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Save the instructions to your smartphone, and take a printed backup.
• Document any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be beneficial if a dispute arises.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often times, adjacent homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the property to confirm you've collected all personal items. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the host is not available, remember to take photographs of the property to record its condition.
• Did your group have a terrific time? Most rental managers make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property manager was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was defective and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
