Getting the best Oak Island vacation property experience:

Sticking to your spending budget:

• Summertime is high season in the Carolina Beach area. To find the best vacation home for your budget, we suggest reserving in the Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at local restaurants, tours, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• The earlier your group can book a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are reserved very early. Booking your rental home six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Ask your property manager if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers typically offer guests an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Carolina Beach area magazine when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, travel guides have deals for local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

• Begin by choosing your the best vacation week and a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. MOONSHINE CREEK on the Davis Canal with DOCK - Sleeps 4 - CLEAN - King Bed has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly available on booking websites. Otherwise, call the property manager before you book the property. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to work out what configuration is optimal for your trip.
• If there's a particular Carolina Beach beach you love, look for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. .
• If your family is vacationing with pets, search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Request specifics on breed, size, and type restrictions. Some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

Advice for your stay:

• Add the owner's contact information to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Upon check-in, note any issues with the rental property and immediately contact the property manager. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.

• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are away, just like you would back home.
• Double-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed everything on check-out day. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.

Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will be thankful you shared your experience find their best rental home. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
