Tips for getting the best vacation home experience:

When to book & When to go:

• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. Reserve your Brunswick area rental home in Fall or Spring months to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.
• Look for your local Brunswick area area magazine when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local information, visitor guides contain discounts for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Start by selecting your trip dates and a budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Blue Cottage: Newly Renovated, Walk to Beach, Pet Friendly, Private Fence has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is almost always available online. If you don't see them listed, call the property manager before booking your home. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If your group is bringing pets, search for a pet-friendly property. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Often, hosts charge pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a single attraction or event? If so, use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental

More considerations:

• We recommend storing the host's information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, television set or coffee maker. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent many difficulties.
• Lock your rental property while you are out! Don't let thieves ruin your vacation.
• At Check-in, note any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the host. Record all coorespondence.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors disrupting your quiet neighborhood. Practice the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and scenic spots you would have not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Re-check the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all belongings at check-out. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property one final time and scan for any damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, ensure that you take photos and video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave a review! Property managers rely on good feedback to drive future reservations. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will be thankful you shared your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
