When to go & When to book:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Wilmington, NC area. Reserving a rental home in Spring or Fall is an excellent way to save money on your rental home.

• Lock your rental while you are out and about. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• When it's time to leave, complete a final walk-through to confirm you didn't forget anything. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a great vacation? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property management company was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was imperfect and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
