Tips for getting the perfect Ocracoke rental home experience:

When to go & When to reserve a rental home:

• To get the most suitable vacation home within your budget, we suggest reserving in Fall or Spring months. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at your favorite Ocracoke restaurants and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Ocracoke 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.
• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property managers offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Property management companies typically offer their guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
• Often, rental management companies supply Ocracoke area visitors guides that include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Ocracoke area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Planning and picking a perfect Ocracoke rental:

• Choose a designated group leader, choose your dates, and choose a max budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your group requires. Fiddler's Rest: Pet friendly cottage has colorful decor. has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email the property owner before reserving your home. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to work out what configuration is optimal for your trip.
• If there's a certain Ocracoke destination you simply love, look for homes that are either close by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. .
• Some properties allow pets, but others don't. Allowable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the property manager about allowable breeds and types before booking.

More tips for your visit:

• Get the property manager's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home. Put the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• To make sure damages are not linked to your visit, record any problem areas during arrival. text the host immediately to report any damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, intercom or washer/dryer. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents lots of problems.
• Respect your neighbors. Often, nearby homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are out, just like you would back home.
• Re-check the vacation property to make sure that you've packed everything on check-out day. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a terrific time? Most rental websites make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property manager was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
