Tricks and tips to get the very best vacation property experience:

When to visit & When to book:

• Summertime is the most expensive season in the Brunswick area area. To book the best rental within budget, we suggest reserving in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at your favorite Brunswick area restaurants and activities.
• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Property managers sometimes offer special rates 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.
• Property management companies usually offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Many management companies supply Brunswick area area visitors guides which include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Brunswick area visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly accessible on booking websites. Otherwise, reach out to the property management company before you reserve the rental. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks. You'll need to establish what configuration is best for your trip.
• Looking for special amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities. Use these to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.

Tips to have a fantastic stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the instructions to your phone.
• To make sure that no damages are attributed to your family's visit, make note of any problem areas during arrival. Call the rental manager right away to relay your findings. If there is a dispute, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, stereo or coffee maker. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents lots of issues.
• Be a good neighbor. Frequently, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors 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 fishing?
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are gone, just like you would back home.
• At departure, take a final walk-through to confirm you did not leave anything behind. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental one final time and keep an eye out for damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the host isn't available, ensure that you take photos of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Property managers rely on great ratings to inspire new reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your feedback find their best vacation home. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
