Strategies for getting the perfect vacation home experience:

When to book & When to go:

• Summer time is high season in the Brunswick area area. To get the best value, consider changing your group's vacation week to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer great weather, , and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Brunswick area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Reserve your vacation 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 rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts and property managers offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies typically offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. 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 local stories, visitor guide magazines have deals for local tours, shops, and attractions.

Planning and choosing your prefectrental home:

• Select your vacation week and max budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your group requires. Small 2BR Cottage Close To Downtown ILM & Greenfield Lake South end of town has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed types is often available on booking websites. Otherwise, contact the property manager before reserving the home. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to establish what is optimal for your trip.
• Visiting for a single attraction? Use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking
• If your group is vacationing with pets, filter your search for a property that allows animals. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Note that some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

During your stay:

• Put the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Document any damages to the rental during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the owner. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are valuable if there is a dispute.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Frequently, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Lock your vacation home while you're away. Keep your property safe!
• Upon check-out, complete a walk-through to make sure you did not leave anything behind. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property one final time and look for any damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager is not available, remember to take photos and video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave a review! Property managers rely on good reviews to drive new bookings. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will will be grateful for your experience find their best rental home. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
