Tricks and tips to get the perfect Morehead City vacation home experience:

When to visit & When to book:

• Summer is high season in Emerald Isle. To find the best value, shift your group's vacation to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer pleasant weather, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic.
• In the Morehead City area, The sooner your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best properties are reserved very early. Reserving your rental home six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your vacation home.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host whether your group qualifies for a discount.
• Property managers typically offer their guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Find a copy of your local Morehead City area magazine upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitors guide magazines contain deals for nearby tours and attractions.

Narrow your rental Search:

• Choose vacation dates and max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Bogue Sound Cottage with Boat Dock has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally available on booking websites. If they are not listed, call the property owner before you reserve the vacation property. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to establish what is optimal for your group.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction or event? Use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to find a property that allows animals. Get information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Often, property managers charge pet deposits and fees.

Advice for a smooth stay:

• Take a copy of the property manager's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property.
• To make sure damages are not attributed to your family's stay, inspect for any problem areas during arrival. message the rental manager immediately to document your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, elevator or washer/dryer. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent many issues.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your rental home while you're out and about. Keep your property safe!
• Double-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed everything at departure. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your family have a fantastic vacation? Most rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property management company was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was defective and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
