Finding the best Brunswick area vacation rental experience:

Getting the most from your vacation rental budget:

• Summer months are the most expensive season in Bald Head Island. Reserve your rental home in the Spring or Fall to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Hosts sometimes offer special rates for veterans. Check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your family.
• Booking websites frequently offer guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Brunswick area visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guides have money saving offers on nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

Planning and picking your prefect Brunswick area rental home:

• To start, have your group decide on the best dates and a spending budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your group needs. New in 2024! Shifting Sands is the ultimate in BHI oceanfront living! has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is regularly available on booking pages. If not, email or call the property management company before you reserve the vacation home. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to establish what configuration is optimal for your group.
• Visiting for a specific attraction or event? Try a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. .
• If your family is bringing pets, you will need a pet-friendly vacation rental. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Often, property owners charge additional pet fees.

Know before you go:

• Get the host's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental. Store the manager's information in your smartphone.
• To make sure that damages aren't attributed to your stay, note any problem areas during arrival. Get in touch with the host right away to relay any issues. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Respect your neighbors. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Lock your rental while you are out and about. Keep your property safe!
• Re-check every room of the property to confirm that you've packed everything at departure. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental one final time and look for damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, take photos of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a fantastic vacation? Most rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your property and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
