Tips for getting the best Bald Head Island vacation home experience:

Getting the most from your rental home budget:

• Summertime is high season in Bald Head Island. To get the most suitable rental within your budget, we highly recommend reserving in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at restaurants, beaches, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Brunswick area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Property management companies frequently offer their guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally costs between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
• Look for your local Brunswick area visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great articles, travel guide magazines contain coupons for local tours and attractions.

Narrow your rental Search:

• Begin by selecting your potential vacation weeks and a maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Wonderful Cottage on the Lagoon! 2 Carts, Beach Gear, Wifi. Recently updated and pet friendly! has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly available on booking pages. Otherwise, call the property manager before booking the property. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks. You'll need to work out what is optimal for your family.
• Visiting for a single attraction or event? Try a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you'll need to search for a rental that allows animals. Get specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Be aware that some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.

Tips for a great stay:

• We recommend storing the owner's information in your smartphone.
• At Check-in, make note of any issues with the rental property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are an excellent resource to find the best local beaches.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let burglars ruin your family vacation.
• Re-check every room of the property to confirm that you've packed all personal items at departure. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take video of the rental to record its condition.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property managers rely on good reviews to drive new reservations. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will will be grateful for your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
