Tips and Tricks to get the very best Ocracoke rental experience:

Getting the most from your spending budget:

• Book your rental property in Fall or Spring to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during Winter holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Property managers usually offer guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Ocracoke area travel guides which include coupons, either offered independently 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 gas stations and shopping centers.

Filter your rental search:

• Start by having your family choose dates and a spending budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration your family needs. Island Rest: Marsh and distant sound views on Jackson Circle has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly available on booking pages. If they are not listed, email or call the property manager before you book your home. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to establish which bed configuration is optimal for your group.
• If there's a specific Ocracoke attraction you are enamored with, search for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Extra fees or costs might be applied to your contract.

Tips to have a great stay:

• Take a copy of the host's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home. Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• During check-in, document any damages to the property and immediately contact the property manager. Record all coorespondence.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. You will increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors can be an excellent resource to find 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 order delicious takeout, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your rental home while you are out and about. Keep your property safe!
• At departure, complete a walk-through to make sure you did not leave anything behind. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a great time? Many rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
