Tricks and tips for getting the perfect vacation property experience:

When to reserve a Wilmington, NC rental & When to go:

• Summer months are the most expensive season in Oak Island. Book your Wilmington, NC rental property in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• The sooner your group can book a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best vacation homes are reserved early. Booking your vacation property six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental property.
• Some hosts offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if rate reductions are available for your family.
• Property managers typically offer renters an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitors guides contain deals for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

How to select the best vacation rental:

• Choose a designated group leader, choose your dates, and choose a max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. MOONSHINE CREEK on the Davis Canal with DOCK - Sleeps 4 - CLEAN - King Bed has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts is generally accessible on booking websites. If not, call the host before you reserve your rental. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds. You will need to work out what configuration is suitable for your vacation.
• If there's an individual Wilmington, NC destination you crave, browse rentals that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. .
• If your family is bringing pets, you must book a pet-friendly rental. Request details on breed, size, and type requirements. Note that some property managers charge additional pet fees.

More tips for your stay:

• Get the property manager's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home. Put the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Document any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately send them to the host. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are beneficial if a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, stereo or coffee maker. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents many issues.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud vacationers disrupting your home life. Practice the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and scenic spots you would have never otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often help. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Keep the property locked while you are away! Don't let crooks ruin your holiday.
• Just before checking out, take a walk-through to make sure you did not forget anything. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a wonderful time? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
