Tips and Tricks to get the optimal Pamlico area vacation rental experience:

How to get the best rental home value:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in New Bern. Booking your Pamlico area vacation rental in the Fall or Spring is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable properties. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Pamlico area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property management companies offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Ask your host or property manager if rate reductions are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers usually offer guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guide magazines have offers and deals for local tours and attractions.

How to pick the perfect vacation home in New Bern:

• First and foremost, have your family agree to trip dates and a spending budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Welcoming Trent River Cottage w\/ Fire Pit & Grill! has 1 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts is regularly accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, call the property manager before reserving the rental. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction or event? Use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking.
• Remember to include your furry companions! Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your agreement! Additional pet fees or applied to your agreement.

Have a wonderful stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Add a note with the directions to your smartphone, and take a printed copy.
• Document any damages to the property during check in, and immediately contact the owner. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be beneficial if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant visitors bothering your peaceful neighborhood. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and places you would have never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Keep your rental home locked while you are away! Don't let crooks spoil your holiday.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the property to confirm you've collected everything. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, take photographs of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a excellent time? Many rental websites make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was amiss and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
