Tricks and tips for getting the perfect rental experience:

Getting the most from your budget:

• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• To book the best rental within budget, we recommend reserving in Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at restaurants, beaches, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Ocracoke vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Owners sometimes offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites usually offer renters an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Ocracoke area travel guide magazines that include special deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

How to select the best vacation rental in Ocracoke:

• Select a group leader, choose your trip dates, and choose a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Hangin' Loose: Pet friendly, deck, screened porch, ramp has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is regularly accessible online. If not, call the property manager before you book the property. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to establish what is optimal for your vacation group.
• Some properties allow pets, but some don't. Acceptable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the host about pets before booking.
• If there's an individual Ocracoke attraction you are enamored with, look for homes that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Suitable 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.

During your stay:

• Add the owner's contact info to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are away, just like you would back home.
• To make certain that damages are not linked to your visit, inspect for any problem areas when you arrive. Get in touch with the host right away to document any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You will enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are a great resource to find the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the rental to make sure you've collected everything. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a wonderful vacation? Most rental home management companies make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property manager was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
