How to book the best Oak Island vacation property experience:

• Summer is the most expensive season in coastal NC. To find the best value, consider shifting your family's Wilmington, NC vacation to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer warm weather, , and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer.
• Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.

Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.

• At departure, complete a walk-through to make sure you haven't forget anything. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the host isn't available, remember to take pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a great vacation? Many rental management companies make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or host was great, they always love to hear your praise.
