Finding the best Morehead City rental home experience:

When to visit Pine Knoll Shores & When to reserve a rental home:

• In the Morehead City area, The earlier you can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The best rental homes are reserved early. Booking your vacation rental six - twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and book your vacation rental.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Morehead City area. To book the largest rental home within your budget, we recommend booking in Fall or Spring months. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at your favorite Morehead City restaurants and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Morehead City vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Hosts sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Ask your property manager if discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers frequently offer their guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of 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 local articles, travel guide magazines contain coupons for nearby accommodations, tours and attractions.

Selecting and booking your prefectvacation home:

• Choose a designated group leader, select your trip dates, and choose a spending budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration you need. Retrouvaille = Oceanfront Beauty! Single Family Home on NC Southern Outer Banks. has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts is regularly accessible online. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property manager before reserving the home. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to determine what bed configuration is right for your trip.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you will need a pet-friendly rental. Request specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Often, property owners charge pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a specific attraction? Use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Advice for a terrific stay:

• Add the host's contact information to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or thermostat. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent quite a few issues.
• Keep your rental home locked while you are out! Don't let crooks ruin your holiday.
• To make certain damages are not linked to your stay, inspect for any problem areas during arrival. Make contact with the rental manager immediately to record any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Respect your neighbors. Often times, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the property to make sure you've collected all personal belongings. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the property a final time and scan for any damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the host is not available, remember to take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition.
