Strategies to get the perfect Brunswick area rental home experience:

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

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Booking your Brunswick area vacation home in Fall or Spring months is a good way to save money on your vacation. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer.
• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Often, management companies supply Brunswick area area travel guide magazines which often include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local companies, or through a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Brunswick area area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Planning, selecting, and booking the right Brunswick area rental:

• First, have your group commit to date ranges and a budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration you need. A Frame of Mind: Stylish Mid-Century Mod Getaway Close to Waterway has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is regularly accessible online. If they are not listed, email or call the property manager before booking the rental. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches.
• Visiting for a single event or attraction? Use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly vacation rental. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Note that some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.

More considerations for your visit:

• Get the host's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home. Put the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• During arrival, record any damages to the property and immediately contact the host. Record all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent lots of difficulties.
• Respect the neighborhood. Frequently, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the rental property to make sure you've collected everything. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager is not available, remember to take video and pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property owners rely on good feedback to stimulate new bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will will be grateful for your experience find their best rental home. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
