How to book the best rental experience:

Get the best value:

• Summertime is the most expensive season in coastal NC. To find the best value, change your family's Ocracoke trip dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer warmer temperatures, , and reduced traffic.
• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Owners sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if rate reductions are available for your group before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local articles, visitor guide magazines contain deals for nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

How to pick the best rental:

• Start by selecting a vacation week and a spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your family needs. Waterside: Soundfront condo with spectacular sunsets. has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually available on booking pages. If they are not listed, email the property management company before booking the vacation property. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to establish what configuration is optimal for your group.
• Visiting for a single attraction or event? Try a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking
• Do your family pets travel with you? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional fees or costs applied to your contract.

Advice for your stay:

• Be sure you get the property manager's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property.
• During arrival, record any damages to the property and immediately contact the property manager. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud vacationers disrupting your peaceful neighborhood. Practice the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and places you would have never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents 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 on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• At departure, complete a walk-through to make sure you did not forget any personal items. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, take video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a terrific vacation? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property management company was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
