Tricks and tips to get the best Bald Head Island rental home experience:

When to visit Bald Head Island & When to reserve a rental home:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Brunswick area area. To book the most suitable vacation home within budget, we recommend reserving in Fall or Spring months. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at Brunswick area restaurants, tours, and activities.
• The earlier your group can book a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation homes are booked early. Booking your vacation home up to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Property managers often offer their guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.
• Find a copy of your local Brunswick area visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitors guides have discounts for local tours and attractions.

Choosing and booking the right Brunswick area rental home:

• Choose your dates and spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Ocean Front Sleeps 6 Steps to Beach Renovated to New 5 Star Home BHI Club has 2 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally accessible on booking pages. If not, email the property manager before you book the vacation property. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches. You'll need to establish what is best for your trip.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction? Try a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. .
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Extra fees or costs might be applied to your invoice.

Additional considerations:

• Add the owner's phone number to your phone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Note any damages to the property during check in, and immediately contact the host. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are helpful if there is a dispute.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, television set or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents many issues.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are often an incredible resource to find the best local spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can often help. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Re-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items at departure. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the property a final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the host is not available, ensure that you take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a excellent time? Many rental managers make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or host was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
