Our top Vacation rental home tips:

When to go & When to book:

• To get the best rental for your budget, we recommend reserving in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at Morehead City restaurants, tours, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer.
• The sooner you can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental homes are booked very early. Booking your vacation property 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and book your vacation home.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your family.
• Booking websites typically offer guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Morehead City area visitor guides which often include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Morehead City visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Planning, picking, and booking yourrental:

• Start by having your group commit to trip dates and a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your group needs. “Spivey’s Korner” Ocean Views, Easy Steps to quiet sandy Beach - secure WiFi has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Morehead City vacation rental search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, contact the property management company before you reserve the property. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches.
• Looking for special amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find your ideal rental home.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental
• If your group is vacationing with pets, search for a pet-friendly property. Make sure to ask for details on breed, size, and type requirements. Note that some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.

Tips for your stay:

• Take a copy of the property manager's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your .
• At Check-in, note any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all coorespondence.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. You will magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a fantastic source for finding the best local scenic spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Keep your rental home locked while you're away! Don't let crooks ruin your vacation.
• When it's time to leave, take a walk-through to confirm you didn't forget any personal items. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, take photographs of the property to record its condition.
• Did your family have a terrific vacation? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental and/or host was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
