Stroll through the marsh to visit the home of the famed Ft. Fisher Hermit. Or wind down with nature at our two state parks, sure to provide a memorable experience with hiking, fishing, and water activities such as paddle boarding and kayaking, and search for a Venus Flytrap which is native to NC only. As one of North Carolina's most undeveloped beaches, the island offers a unique opportunity to see many diverse coastal wildlife, including pelicans and loggerhead sea turtles, in their natural habitat. Whether it’s exploring activities on the island, appreciating the ocean vistas, or enjoying a drink by sunset from your own private balcony, Pleasure Island offers diversion for every enthusiast!

During the summer months, the Boardwalk is bustling with the sound of music, carnival rides, bingo, family nights, and events like the weekly fireworks and concert series. Rent a Jeep, bicycle, or golf cart as the most convenient ways to navigate the island. Annual off-season events include the Cape Fear Kite Festival, Christmas by the Sea, and the Island of Lights Festival.

Tips and Tricks for getting the best vacation rental experience:

When to go & When to book:

• Summertime is high season in the Brunswick area area. Reserve your vacation home in the Spring or Fall to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities.
• The sooner your group can reserve a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The best rental homes are booked early. Booking your rental six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your vacation home.
• Hosts sometimes offer special rates for veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Property management companies often offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly costs 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Brunswick area area travel guides that include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Choosing and booking a perfect Brunswick area rental home:

• Choose vacation dates and max budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration your family requires. Second Row Condo with Gorgeous Ocean Views! has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property owner before you book your rental. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds.
• If there's a particular Brunswick area attraction you are enamored with, look for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and others do not. Acceptable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the property manager about allowable breeds and types before booking.

Tips to have a terrific stay:

• Add the owner's contact information to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• To make sure no damages are attributed to your family's visit, inspect the property for any problem areas upon your arrival. Make contact with the property manager immediately to document any issues. If there is a dispute, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be an incredible resource to find the best local spots.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental home while you're out. Keep your property safe!
• Re-check the rental property to confirm that you've packed all personal items at departure. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property a final time and keep an eye out for damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the host is not available, take pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Leave a review! Hosts rely on good ratings to compel new bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your review find their best rental home. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
