Our top Brunswick area rental home tips:

Find your perfect rental home:

• Summer is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. To book the largest vacation home for your budget, we highly recommend reserving in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at the beach and popular Brunswick area attractions.
• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts and property managers offer special rates for veterans. Check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Property management companies frequently offer their guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Brunswick area area travel guide magazines which often include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find Brunswick area area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Select a group lead, choose your vacation dates, and choose a max budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. 4BR\/2BA Home - 2nd Row, Ocean Views, Walk to Beach, Firepit Sleeps 8 has 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed types is often accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, contact the host before booking the property. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds.
• If there's a certain Brunswick area attraction you are crazy about, keep an eye out for rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you will need a pet-friendly property. Make sure to ask for details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

More considerations:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Save the instructions to your smartphone, and take a printed copy.
• Upon check-in, note any damages to the property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, stereo or appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents lots of issues.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant visitors bothering your peaceful home. Practice the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and places you would've never otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental home while you are away. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental to confirm you've collected all of your things. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did you have a excellent time? Most rental websites make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or host was wonderful, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was amiss and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
