Our condo is just a short drive away from the port city of Wilmington where you will find shopping, eateries, and the historic downtown district filled with interesting sites and experiences. Wilmington is the home of the North Carolina Azalea Festival held in April featuring live musical and theater performances, garden and historic home tours, outdoor activities, food, and crafts. Other points of interest in Wilmington are the USS North Carolina Battleship and Museum. Wilmington and surrounding areas/beaches have also become a hot spot for Hollywood Film Directors for film making locations and tv show locations. You never know what Hollywood stars you will run into. I have seen many.

In Fort Fisher area there is an award winning aquarium or you can take a ferry across the Cape Fear River to a appealing town called Southport with many stores and eateries. For all those history fanatics, visit Fort Fisher museum that features items from the American Civil War.

Tricks and tips to get the best rental experience:

When to go & When to book:

• To get the best value, shift your family's Brunswick area vacation week to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer excellent temperatures, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Brunswick area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• In the Brunswick area area, The earlier your group can book a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental properties are booked very early. Booking your rental up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental.
• Hosts sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family.
• Booking websites frequently offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Brunswick area visitors guide magazine upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guide magazines contain discounts for local accommodations, tours and attractions.

How to select the best rental:

• Choose a designated group leader, select your vacation week, and choose a budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. ????BEACHFRONT ELM IS CALLING????\n~Oceanfront~Private Beach Access~Pool~ has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Brunswick area rentals search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is regularly available on booking websites. If not, email the property management company before you book your rental. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches. You'll need to work out what bed configuration is optimal for your trip.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction? Use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. .
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to search for a rental that allows animals. Make sure to ask for information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Often, property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

Advice for your stay:

• Put the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• Make a record of any issues with the rental during check in, and immediately contact the host. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are valuable if there is a dispute.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud visitors disrupting your peaceful neighborhood. Use the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and places you would have never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Keep your rental home locked while you're out! Don't let thieves spoil your trip.
• Re-check every room of the property to make sure that you've packed all personal items at departure. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property a final time and keep an eye out for damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take photos and video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a wonderful stay? Many rental home management companies make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your property and/or property manager was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was amiss and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
