Tips and Tricks for getting the best vacation home experience:

Get the best rental value:

Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Book your Nags Head rental property in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities.
Owners sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family.
Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer customers an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Nags Head area visitor guide magazines which include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Nags Head area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Make a plan and choose your Nags Head vacation home:

Choose your dates and maximum budget.
Note the number bedrooms and the configuration you need. Terrapin Cottage: Oceanside with a private pool, ocean views, amazing sunrise &a has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, email the property management company before you reserve the property. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms.
Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your host before booking, and study your agreement! Additional pet fees or charges could be applied to your contract.
If there's a particular Nags Head attraction you love, search for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your desires.
Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental

Advice for a great stay:

Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the instructions to your phone.
Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
Keep the property locked while you are away! Don't let burglars spoil your trip.
Document any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are very helpful if a dispute is filed.
Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome vacationers disrupting your life at home. Apply the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and attractions you would've not otherwise known!
Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
Double-check every room of the property to confirm that you've packed all belongings at check-out. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
Walk through the rental one final time and scan for damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever you can. If the host isn't available, ensure that you take video of the rental to record its condition.
Did your family have a fantastic vacation? Many rental managers make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property manager was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
