Tricks and tips to get the perfect Brunswick area vacation home experience:

Get the most from your spending budget:

Summertime is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. To find the most suitable rental home within budget, we suggest reserving in Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at popular attractions and restaurants. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Brunswick area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
Booking websites typically offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
Find a copy of your local Brunswick area visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great articles, visitors guides contain discounts for local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Finding the perfect vacation home:

Select a group leader, select your trip dates, and choose a maximum budget.
Decide how many beds and the configuration you need. Beautiful Oceanfront Home with Amazing Views-Sleeps 12 has 6 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
Specific information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually available on booking websites. Otherwise, email the property owner before reserving your home. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches. You will need to determine what is suitable for your family.
Visiting for a single event or attraction? If so, use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. .
Some rental properties allow pets, but some don't. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the owner about pet restrictions before booking.

More considerations for your visit:

Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Save the directions to your smartphone, and take a printed backup.
At Check-in, record any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the property manager. Keep records of all coorespondence.
Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
Be respectful of your neighbors. Frequently, nearby homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
Lock your rental home while you are out and about. Keep your property safe!
On check-out day, take a final walk-through to confirm you did not forget any personal items. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
Record a video to document the condition of the property.
Did your family have a wonderful vacation? Most rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was defective 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 review.
