Before you book "Beautiful 2nd Row Cottage with Pool!!", read through our short collection of issues to consider.

Search Early and Frequently

Beaufort, NC rental properties are reserved several months (and up to a year) in advance. To guarantee the greatest selection of vacation homes, we suggest searching and reserving your Beaufort, NC getaway 6-12 months before your travel dates, whenever you can. Many households decide to start their search over Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years Eve holiday gatherings.

Choose your Town and Vacation Week

Sometimes, the hardest part of planning your trip is choosing where to search, and when. Once the big decisions are tackled, the rest becomes easier.

Pick a Size

Take a head count. How many beds and bedrooms will you need? Keep in mind that a lot of properties list maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in the home's living room. It is important to figure out what is acceptable for the family. Precise descriptions of bedrooms and beds are typically accessible online. Otherwise, communicate with the property manager before you reserve the home.

Stay on a Budget

Does the preferred rental fit your budget during that popular Summer week? Make sure you get cost-sharing commitments from friends and family well before reserving a costly vacation property. Most rental contracts require a single person to be responsible for the full reservation.

Let's Discuss Amenities

What amenities is the group interested in? Do you primarily want a vacation home with a pool, jacuzzi or volleyball court? Are you more interested in a natural landscape or amusements? Does the rental have bicycles and body boards for use throughout your stay? Create a list of priority features to guide filter your search.

Accessibility and Special Issues

Proper access could make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. If wheel chair entry, elevators, pool lifts or other specialized equipment is necessary, factor that into your search. The majority of rental postings include a list of amenities.

Fido Approved

Are you or other members of the family travelling with a four-legged friend? While quite a few vacation rentals allow family pets, guidelines and costs vary per rental. A number of constraints may eliminate a potential rental property. Study your contract very carefully! Extra fees or deposits may be applied to your agreement. Ask questions *well before* you reserve!

Searching the Internet

As soon as the area, dates and people are decided, search multiple resources for the best vacation home selection.

In addition to having distinctive rental properties, local agencies provide fantastic service..

Negotiate

Re-read the description to make certain that the property has everything you need. If it is something is missing, the property management company might know of comparable homes that better suit your desires and budget..

While not true for all properties, many owners and property managers will negotiate rates. If the price isn't negotiable, the number of nights might be. The off-season offers your best chance to negotiate a lower rate.

During your Stay

• Photograph on your arrival. To ensure that no damages are associated with your stay, create a record of any trouble spots of the rental. Get in touch with the rental manager immediately to report your observations. If there is a dispute about liability later, having the documented problems and communication attempts should be incredibly helpful.
• Ask questions. You may need guidance for a fireplace, Television or jacuzzi. Contact your home manager. They are there to assist. A brief phone call eliminates many complications.
• Please be respectful of the community. Permanent residents most likely live within earshot. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a visit significantly more relaxing.
• Ask a local. Local people can frequently point you in the right direction.
• Enjoy your stay! Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the vacation home secured when you are away, just like you would at home.

When its Time to Leave

• Check to make sure you've packed all your things. Sweep all the rooms in the home for left-behind possessions. Inspect bathrooms, the garage, kitchen cupboards, patios, the pool area, and anywhere else your gear might "hide".
• As soon as your things are all out, begin a walk-through of the rental to make sure that no damage occurred in the course of your stay. We suggest walking through with the property manager wherever possible (this isn't always the case).. If the property owner is not available, be sure to take photos of the property to record its condition.
• Did you love your stay? Nearly all rental websites request comments after your stay . Rental owners and rental managers will appreciate your positive reviews.
