Our top Vacation rental booking tips and tricks:

Get the best rental home value:

• Summertime is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. To find the best value, consider shifting your family's Southport trip dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer excellent temperatures, , and greatly reduced traffic.
• The sooner your group can book, the easier your search will be. The best rental homes are reserved early. Reserving your rental home 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation home.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer renters an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitor guide magazines contain money saving offers on nearby shops and restaurants.

How to pick the best vacation rental:

• Start by having your group commit to the best dates and a budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. Cozy Poolside Bungalow - Pool is open! has 3 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally available online. If not, call the property management company before you reserve the rental. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds.
• If there's a specific Southport destination you crave, keep an eye out for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Get information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Usually, property owners charge additional pet fees.

• Add the owner's contact information to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Document any damages to the property at check in, and immediately contact the host. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are very helpful if a dispute is filed.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome visitors disrupting your life at home. Use the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and attractions you would have not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your rental home while you are out and about. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• When it's time to leave, take a walk-through to confirm you did not leave anything behind. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the property one final time and look for damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, remember to take photos of the property to record its condition at check-out.
