Getting the best Beaufort vacation home experience:

Sticking to your rental home budget:

• Summer is high season in Beaufort. To get the best value, try shifting your family's New Bern vacation week to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer pleasant temperatures, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic.
• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property management companies offer promotional rates for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites usually offer guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, travel guides have offers and deals for local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Choose a designated group leader, select your vacation dates, and choose a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Family affordable & close enough to all the fun stuff! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually accessible online. Otherwise, contact the property manager before reserving the property. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to work out what configuration is right for your family.
• If there's a certain New Bern attraction you are enamored with, search for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. .
• Some rentals allow pets, but some don't. Acceptable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the owner about allowable breeds and types before booking.

• During check-in, note any issues with the property and immediately alert the host. Record all coorespondence.

• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home while you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Re-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all personal items at departure. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a wonderful stay? Many rental management companies make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was defective and they failed to address 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.
