Strategies to get the optimal rental home experience:

When to book a Brunswick area rental & When to go:

• To get the best value, shift your trip dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer warm weather, , and greatly reduced traffic.
• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Ask your property manager if rate reductions are available for your group before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer customers an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
• Find a copy of your local Brunswick area visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local articles, visitors guide magazines contain discounts for local accommodations, tours and attractions.

Choosing the perfect vacation rental:

• To start, have your group choose dates and a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Newly Renovated 5 Bedroom Home on Bald Head Island House in Harbour Village has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed types is normally available on booking websites. If not, email or call the property management company before you book the rental. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to establish what bed configuration is optimal for your family.
• Is your family looking for unique amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental.
• Traveling with pets? 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 thoroughly! Pet fees or could be applied to your contract.

Considerations for your stay:

• Be sure you get the owner's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental.
• To make sure that damages aren't attributed to your visit, make a record of any problem areas during check in. Make contact with the host immediately to relay any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be useful.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, television set or washer/dryer. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents many concerns.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant visitors bothering your peaceful home. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and places you would have never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental home while you're out. Keep your property safe!
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the rental to confirm you've collected all personal belongings. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever you can. If the host isn't available, take photos and video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a great time? Many rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your property and/or host was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was inoperable 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 review.
