Finding the best vacation rental experience:

When to book & When to go:

• The sooner your group can reserve a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The best vacation homes are booked early. Booking your vacation rental up to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your rental.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. Reserving a rental home in Fall or Spring is an excellent way to save on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable homes.
• 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 price reduction.
• Booking websites typically offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Ocracoke area travel guides which often include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Ocracoke visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

• Choose your vacation dates and budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration your group requires. Sandy Pause is a charming pet friendly cottage with a fenced yard. has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is normally available on booking pages. Otherwise, email the property management company before you reserve the property. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds. You'll need to establish what bed configuration is best for your vacation family.
• Some properties allow pets, and some don't. Acceptable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask the owner about pets before booking.
• Are you looking for particular amenities? Most websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. .

During your stay:

• Get the host's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property. Put the manager's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• At Check-in, make note of any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Be a good neighbor. Often times, adjacent homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Just before checking out, take a final walk-through to confirm you didn't forget any personal items. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your family have a wonderful vacation? Many rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property manager was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was amiss and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
