Date of Stay - April 2021
5 stars! We appreciated the home! It was extremely well organized and decorated. You can tell the owners spent tons of time providing everything you could need. We really liked the beach paintings. We found that the location is ideal, near the beach, the golf course, market, and marina.

N. Edmunds -. 5 STARS

Ferrytale Retreat has all the details covered—and what’s more important than the details? High-end appliances, super-well-appointed kitchen, impeccable décor, a Weber grille, extravagant memory foam beds, two great golf carts (but only blocks from a beach access). Great open spaces and comfortable bedrooms—just a excellent place to cool down and mix a margarita after a day in the sun. Highest recommendation here.

Tricks and tips to get the perfect rental home experience:

When to book & When to go:

• Summer is high season in the Brunswick area area. Reserve your rental in Fall or Spring to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Brunswick area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• The sooner you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental properties are booked early. Booking your vacation home up to 12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental home.
• Some property management companies offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers often offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually costs between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Brunswick area area visitors guide magazines which include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Brunswick area visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Filter your search:

• Select a group lead, select your trip dates, and select a max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your group needs. Spacious Home with Ocean Views from Primary Suite, 4BR, 3BA, SB location has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, call the property owner before reserving the vacation property. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds. You will need to work out what bed configuration is right for your group.
• Are you visiting for a single event? Try a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but some don't. Allowable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask your host about allowable breeds and types before booking.

Have a fantastic stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Save the directions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
• Record any damages to the rental at check in, and immediately contact the host. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be valuable if a dispute is filed.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are often a fantastic source for finding the best local attractions.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Lock your rental home while you're out and about. Keep your property safe!
• On check-out day, complete a final walk-through to confirm you didn't leave anything behind. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the property one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take video and pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Did your family have a excellent time? Many rental websites make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was amiss and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
