Tricks and tips to get the very best Morehead City rental home experience:

Money saving strategies:

• In the Morehead City area, The earlier you can reserve a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best vacation homes are reserved very early. Reserving your rental up to 12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your vacation rental.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Morehead City area. To get the best rental for your budget, we recommend reserving in Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at Morehead City restaurants, beaches, and activities.
• Some hosts offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies typically offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
• Look for your local Morehead City area magazine when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitor guides contain offers and deals for nearby accommodations, tours and attractions.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Select a group lead, choose your dates, and choose a maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration you need. Relax at this classic beach cottage. has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always available online. If they are not listed, reach out to the property manager before booking your rental. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches. You will need to work out what configuration is right for your group.
• If your family is bringing pets, you must reserve a pet-friendly rental. Make sure to ask for details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some property owners charge additional pet fees.
• If there's a specific Morehead City destination you long to visit, look for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental.
