Tips and Tricks to get the perfect Ocracoke rental home experience:

Finding your perfect rental:

• Summer months are high season in Ocracoke. To book the most suitable vacation home for your budget, we strongly suggest booking in the Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at popular Ocracoke attractions and restaurants.
• The earlier you can reserve a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The best rental properties are booked very early. Reserving your vacation home 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a discount.
• Booking websites typically offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Ocracoke area visitor guides that include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Ocracoke visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Planning and picking your Ocracoke rental:

• To start, have your family commit to a vacation week and a budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration you need. Brush Stroke: Nicely decorated dog friendly with marsh views. has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, call the host before reserving the vacation property. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to determine what configuration is optimal for your trip.
• If there's an individual Ocracoke destination you love, look for homes that are either close by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking
• Some rentals allow pets, and some don't. Acceptable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask your host about your furry family members before booking.

Know before you go:

• Put the owner's information in your smartphone.
• Upon arrival, make note of any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. You will magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a great resource to find the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can often help. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected all personal items. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental a final time and scan for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the host isn't available, ensure that you take pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Leave feedback! Property managers rely on good ratings to compel new bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationers will will be grateful for your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
