Finding the best rental experience:

When to book & When to go:

• Summertime is high season in Emerald Isle. Book your Morehead City vacation in Spring or Fall to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season.
• In the Morehead City area, The earlier you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best properties are booked very early. Reserving your vacation property up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and book your vacation home.
• Some property management companies offer promotional rates for veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers usually offer renters an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.

• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your group needs. Walk to beach! Emerald Isle beach home with cozy vibe and room for the family. has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally available online. Otherwise, call the property manager before booking your home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Are you looking for particular amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking.
• If your family is bringing pets, search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Be aware that some hosts charge additional pet fees.

Know before you go:

• Get the property manager's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property. We recommend storing the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Document any issues with the property during check in, and immediately contact the owner. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are helpful if damages are assessed.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental when you are out, just like you would back home.
• Re-check the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all personal items at check-out. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property a final time and scan for damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, take photos of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a wonderful vacation? Many rental managers make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your property and/or property management company was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
