Tricks and tips to get the very best Wilmington, NC vacation rental experience:

Finding your perfect rental home:

• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are high season in Oak Island. To get the best value, consider changing your trip dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer warm temperatures, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner if your group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitor guides have offers and deals for nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• Select your vacation dates and max budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration your family requires. 3 bed\/2 bath Oak Island Cottage, sleeps 6-7 people comfortably. has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is normally accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, email or call the property owner before you book the vacation home. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If your group is bringing pets, you must book a pet-friendly rental. Get details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Note that some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a specific event? Try a map search to find nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. .

More considerations for your visit:

• Be sure you get the host's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Keep your rental home locked while you're gone! Don't let thieves ruin your holiday.
• Note any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately contact the host. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are useful if a dispute arises.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• When it's time to leave, complete a walk-through to confirm you have not leave anything behind. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Property owners rely on excellent ratings to inspire new reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
