Tricks and tips to get the optimal vacation property experience:

Get the most from your rental budget:

• Summertime is the most expensive season in Bald Head Island. To get the best value, consider changing your family's Wilmington, NC trip dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer warmer weather, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• In the Wilmington, NC area, The sooner you can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The best rental homes are reserved very early. Booking your vacation home up to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your rental home.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Property management companies typically offer renters an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.
• Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guides contain offers and deals for nearby tours and attractions.

Finding the best vacation home:

• Choose vacation dates and budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your family needs. A Golden Retreat - Timbercreek, Dog Friendly, Pool, Kayaks, Marsh\/BHI Creek, BHI Club Mbrshp, Loft has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually accessible online. If not, call the property management company before reserving the home. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds. You will need to work out what is best for your group.
• If there's a specific Wilmington, NC attraction you love, browse rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but some do not. Allowable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask your host about pet restrictions before booking.

During your stay:

• Add the host's information to your phone. Understand and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• To make certain that damages are not linked to your visit, note any problem areas upon check in. Get in touch with the property manager right away to report any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, intercom or WIFI setup. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent a lot of issues.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant vacationers bothering your home life. Use the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would have not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can typically help. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home while you are out, just like you would back home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected everything. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your group have a excellent vacation? Most rental management companies make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was out of order and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
