How to book the best Ocracoke vacation rental experience:

Getting the best rental value:

• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are the most expensive season in Ocracoke. Reserve your vacation home in the Spring or Fall to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Ocracoke vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Ocracoke visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, travel guides contain discounts for local tours, shops, and attractions.

Choosing and booking a perfect Ocracoke rental home:

• Select vacation dates and maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. The Net House: Quaint Restored Cottage Once a Net House has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is commonly accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, email or call the property manager before reserving your rental. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and some do not. Allowable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the property manager about pets before booking.
• If there's a specific Ocracoke destination you love, browse rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. .

During your stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the directions to your phone.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Lock your vacation home while you're out and about. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• Note any damages to the rental at check in, and immediately contact the host. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are helpful if a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Re-check every room of the property to confirm that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a fantastic stay? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your rental and/or host was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
