Tips and Tricks for getting the best vacation rental experience:

Finding the best rental value:

Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules often open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Winter holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
Summer time is high season in Ocracoke. To get the best value, consider shifting your vacation to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer excellent temperatures, , and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable 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 near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
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 if your group qualifies for a reduced rate.
Property managers often offer customers an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
Find a copy of your local Ocracoke area magazine when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local information, visitor guides have coupons for local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Planning, selecting, and booking the perfect Ocracoke rental home:

Select your vacation dates and max budget.
Note the number beds and the configuration your family needs. No Rusch: Your Ocracoke Getaway has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is normally available on booking websites. Otherwise, email the property owner before reserving the rental. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds. You'll need to work out what configuration is suitable for your vacation group.
Some rental properties allow pets, and some do not. Acceptable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the host about pets before booking.
Visiting for a single attraction? Use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. .

Some things to know before you go:

Take a copy of the host's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental.
Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
Protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property while you are gone, just like you would back home.
Make a record of any damages to the property at check in, and immediately contact the host. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be beneficial if damages are attributed to your stay.
Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome visitors bothering your peaceful neighborhood. Use the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and scenic spots you would've not otherwise known!
Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
Re-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings at check-out. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
Record a video to document the condition of the property.
Remember to leave a review! Property managers rely on excellent reviews to propel more reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other families will appreciate that you share your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
