Booking the best vacation property experience:

Get the most from your budget:

• Summer months are high season in the Ocracoke area. Booking your vacation rental in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is our favorite way to save money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months.
• The sooner your group can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation homes are booked early. Booking your rental up to 12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your vacation home.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your family.
• Property management companies often offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Ocracoke visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, travel guides have deals for nearby accommodations and attractions.

Filter your rental search:

• Select a group lead, select your vacation dates, and choose a maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Morning Star: Sound front home perfect for kayaking has 3 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Ocracoke rental home search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed types is often available on booking pages. If not, contact the property management company before you book your home. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to determine what configuration is suitable for your vacation.
• If there's a certain Ocracoke beach you crave, browse homes that are either nearby, or those that cater to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you'll need to search for a property that allows animals. Request details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.

Additional considerations:

• Add the property manager's contact information to your smartphone. Understand and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• To make sure that damages aren't attributed to your family's visit, record any problem areas during check in. text the host immediately to report any issues. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often times, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental property while you are out! Don't let crooks ruin your holiday.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the property to confirm you've collected all personal items. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a terrific vacation? Many rental home management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or host was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was amiss and they failed to fix 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.
