How to get the best Ocracoke rental experience:

Get the best rental home value:

• Summer time is high season in the Ocracoke area. Booking a rental in Fall or Spring months is a great way to save money on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable homes.
• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts and property managers offer promotional rates for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your family.
• Property managers usually offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitor guides have discounts for local shops and restaurants.
