Tips and Tricks to get the best Oak Island rental home experience:

Finding your perfect vacation home:

• Summer months are high season in the Southport area. Book your Southport vacation in Spring or Fall to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• The sooner you can reserve a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are reserved early. Reserving your rental property six - twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation rental.
• Some hosts and property managers offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites typically offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.
• Look for your local Southport visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitor guide magazines contain money saving offers on nearby tours, shops, and attractions.
