How to book the best Nags Head rental home experience:

Finding your perfect rental:

June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Booking in the Fall or Spring is a good way to save on your vacation rental. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable properties.
Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host if your group qualifies for a special rate.
Property management companies often offer renters an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Nags Head area visitor guides that include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Use filters to narrow your search:

First, have your family commit to dates and a budget.
Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Circa 1953 beach cottage...this is 'old school' beach at it's best! has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Nags Head rental home search.
Precise information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often available online. Otherwise, contact the property manager before you book your rental. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to work out what is optimal for your vacation group.
If there's a certain Nags Head attraction you love, search for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater to your desires.
Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
Some rental properties allow pets, but some do not. Acceptable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the property manager about allowable pet guidelines before booking.

More tips for your stay:

Be sure you get the property manager's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your . We recommend storing the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
Upon check-in, record any damages to the property and immediately alert the host. Record all coorespondence.
Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant visitors disrupting your peace and quiet. Apply the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would've not otherwise known!
Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are gone, just like you would back home.
Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the property to confirm you've collected all belongings. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
Please make sure to walk through the property one final time and scan for damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, remember to take video and pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
Did you have a excellent vacation? Most rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property management company was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was inoperable and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
