Our top Southport rental home booking tips:

Getting the best value:

• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during Winter holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer time is high season in the Wilmington, NC area. Book your Wilmington, NC vacation in Fall or Spring months to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner if your vacationing group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Often, management companies supply Wilmington, NC area visitor guides which often include special deals, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Make a plan and choose yourrental:

• Choose a group leader, choose your trip dates, and select a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. Shadow Lakes Retreat by PoshStMgmt ~Luxury Rentals~ 10 Min to OKI, Southport has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Wilmington, NC rental home search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often available on booking websites. Otherwise, contact the property manager before you book your rental. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Are you bringing the family pet? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement! Extra fees or applied to your agreement.
• If there's a specific Wilmington, NC attraction you love, keep an eye out for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater to your desires.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental

Additional considerations:

• Take a copy of the property manager's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, elevator or appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents a lot of problems.
• Keep the property locked while you are gone! Don't let crooks ruin your family vacation.
• During arrival, note any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Record all coorespondence.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant vacationers disrupting your quiet neighborhood. Use the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and places you would've not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently help. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• At departure, complete a final walk-through to make sure you didn't forget anything. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out 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.
• Did your group have a terrific vacation? Most rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your property and/or host was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was out of order and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
