Tips to get the best vacation home experience:

When to visit & When to reserve a Southport rental home:

• The sooner your group can book a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The best vacation homes are booked very early. Reserving your rental property six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and book your rental property.
• Summer is the most expensive season in coastal NC. Book your vacation home in Spring or Fall to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities.
• Some property management companies offer special rates for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your family.
• Property management companies typically offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally costs between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
• Find a copy of 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 visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitors guides contain money saving offers on nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

How to select the perfect vacation rental in Southport:

• Choose vacation week and budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your family needs. Cozy Cottage: Minutes to Downtown Southport! has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is generally available on booking pages. If not, email or call the property management company before booking the rental. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to work out what configuration is optimal for your trip.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but some don't. Allowable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the host about pet restrictions before booking.
• Are you visiting for a single event or attraction? If so, use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking.

Advice for a terrific stay:

• Add the host's contact information to your smartphone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are gone, just like you would back home.
• At Check-in, make note of any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the host. Record all coorespondence.
• Be respectful. Frequently, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can typically 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 crabbing?
• On check-out day, take a walk-through to make sure you haven't forget anything. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your family have a fantastic vacation? Most rental home management companies make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property manager was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was amiss and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
