Our top Southport rental home tips:

Money saving strategies:

• The sooner you can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The best rental properties are reserved early. Reserving your vacation property up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your rental property.
• Summer months are high season in Carolina Beach. Book your Southport rental in Spring or Fall to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your family.
• Booking websites often offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Often, management companies supply Southport area travel guide magazines which include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

If they are not listed, email or call the property management company before booking the vacation home. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to find a property that allows animals. Get specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Note that some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Are you visiting for a single event? Use a map search to find nearby properties.

• Ensure you protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Upon check-in, document any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Be a good neighbor. Often times, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.

• Double-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed everything at check-out. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.

Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your feedback find their best rental home.
