• In the Pamlico area area, The sooner your group can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental homes are reserved early. Reserving your vacation home six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your host or property manager if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Property management companies frequently offer renters an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 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, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.

You can also find Pamlico area visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

• Choose a designated group leader, select your trip dates, and choose a budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Magnolia Manor has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is regularly accessible online. If you don't see them listed, call the property owner before reserving the vacation property. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms.

• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your host before booking, and study your agreement! Pet fees or charges might be applied to your invoice.

Additional considerations:

• Be sure you get the owner's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home. We recommend storing the host's information in your smartphone.
• Record any damages to the rental at check in, and immediately send them to the owner. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be useful if there is a dispute.
• Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected everything. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did you have a terrific stay? Most rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your property and/or property manager was great, they always love to hear your praise. 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 a note as part of your review.
