Rental property booking tips:

Sticking to your spending budget:

• Summer time is high season in the Brunswick area area. To book the best rental for your budget, we recommend booking in Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at your favorite restaurants and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season.
• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Hosts sometimes offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if rate reductions are available for your family.
• Booking websites usually offer customers an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Brunswick area area magazine when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitors guide magazines contain coupons for local tours and attractions.

Narrow your Search:

• To start, have your group agree to the best dates and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Makin' Memories! New Owner, New Name, New Management has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is often accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, email the property owner before you book the home. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches. You will need to establish what configuration is optimal for your vacation family.
• If there's a particular Brunswick area beach you are enamored with, search for rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. .
• If your family is traveling with pets, search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Ask for information on breed, size, and type requirements. Usually, property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.

Some things to know before you go:

• Take a copy of the host's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property.
• To make sure that damages aren't linked to your visit, note any problem areas upon your arrival. Contact the property manager right away to document any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious visitors disrupting your quiet neighborhood. Apply the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and places you would've not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your vacation home while you are away. Keep your property safe!
• Just before checking out, take a walk-through to make sure you didn't leave anything behind. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a fantastic stay? Most rental home management companies make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your property and/or property management company was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable 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 feedback.
