How to get the best Morehead City rental home experience:

Sticking to a budget:

• Summer months are the most expensive season along the coast of NC. Book your Morehead City vacation in Fall or Spring to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities.
• In the Morehead City area, The earlier your group can book, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are booked very early. Reserving your vacation property 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental home.
• Property managers sometimes offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if rate reductions are available for your family.
• Booking websites typically offer their guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.

Advice for your stay:

• Add the property manager's information to your phone. Understand and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Record any issues with the property during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are useful if damages are attributed to your stay.

• Respect the neighborhood. Often, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations is the right thing to do.

• Lock your rental property while you are away! Don't let crooks spoil your family vacation.
• Re-check the vacation property to make sure that you've packed everything on check-out day. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental one final time and look for damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever possible. If the host isn't available, remember to take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Property managers rely on good ratings to inspire future bookings. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will appreciate that you share your experience find their best vacation home. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
