How to find the best Emerald Isle vacation rental experience:

• In the Morehead City area, The sooner you can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation homes are reserved very early. Booking your vacation property 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your vacation home.
• Hosts sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites typically offer renters an option to buy trip insurance.

Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
