Tricks and tips to get the perfect vacation property experience:

Getting the most from your rental budget:

• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer is high season in the Ocracoke area. To get the best value, consider changing your group's vacation dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer warm temperatures, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers usually offer renters an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Ocracoke visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great information, travel guide magazines contain coupons for nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Make a plan and choose your prefectrental home:

• Choose a group leader, choose your trip dates, and select a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Sounds Perfect: Located on Pamlico Sound with kayak access has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is often accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, call the host before you book the vacation property. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to establish what configuration is optimal for your vacation group.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you must book a pet-friendly property. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Be aware that some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a particular Ocracoke attraction you long to visit, browse properties that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. .

During your stay:

• Take a copy of the owner's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property. Put the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental while you are out and about. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• To make certain damages aren't linked to your stay, make a record of any problem areas upon your arrival. Make contact with the host immediately to record your findings. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Respect your neighbors. Often times, nearby homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected everything. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on great reviews to stimulate future reservations. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your review and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
