How to get the best rental home value:

• In the Wilmington, NC area, The sooner you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are booked very early. Reserving your vacation rental six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your vacation rental.

May, September, and October offer warm weather, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic.
