Our top New Bern vacation rental tips:

Getting the best value:

• Reserve your Pamlico area rental property in Spring or Fall to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host whether your group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Booking websites usually offer guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Often, rental management companies supply Pamlico area area visitor guides which include special offers, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Choosing and booking the best Pamlico area rental home:

• Select a designated group leader, select your trip dates, and select a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Welcoming Trent River Cottage w\/ Fire Pit & Grill! has 1 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally available on booking pages. If they are not listed, call the property manager before booking your rental. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Looking for particular amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find your ideal rental home.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. .
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you'll need to search for a rental that allows animals. Get information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some hosts charge additional pet fees.

Know before you go:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Save the instructions to your phone, and take a printed backup.
• To make sure no damages are linked to your stay, note any problem areas during arrival. Contact the property manager right away to record any damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, television set or washer/dryer. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents a lot of issues.
• Be a good neighbor. Often, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Lock your rental home while you're away. Protect your property!
• Re-check every room of the property to make sure that you've packed all belongings at check-out. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Leave a review! Property owners rely on good ratings to drive future bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will will be grateful for your review and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
