Tips to get the perfect Ocracoke rental home experience:

Money saving strategies:

• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer time is high season in the Ocracoke area. Book your Ocracoke vacation in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host if your family qualifies for a price reduction.
• Property managers usually offer guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Many rental management companies supply Ocracoke area visitor guides which often include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• First, have your group select trip dates and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Island Cat: This spacious and comfortable island home has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly accessible online. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property manager before you reserve the home. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to work out what configuration is suitable for your vacation group.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and others do not. Allowable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask the property management company about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
• If there's a certain Ocracoke attraction you simply love, look for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Considerations for your stay:

• Be sure you get the host's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your vacation home while you're out. Keep your property safe!
• Record any issues with the property during check in, and immediately contact the property manager. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are helpful if damages are assessed.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often times, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often help. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• When it's time to leave, take a final walk-through to make sure you have not forget anything. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property a final time and scan for damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, remember to take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property managers rely on excellent reviews to stimulate more reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your review find their best vacation rental. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
