BBQ instructions

I hope you are as excited about this BBQ as I am. If you just need to prepare some hotdogs and hamburgers, use the gas grille on the right side. But if you are true Grille master,
Please savor the smoky flavor of the wood pellet grille on the left.
Please be a responsible griller and clean the grille when you’re finished.
We keep a bin of wood pellets in the play room. If the bin is empty you can purchase more pellets at Lowes or Walmart.
I have attached the instructions. Please read thru to familiarize yourself with the grille.

Our top Vacation rental booking tips and tricks:

When to visit New Bern & When to reserve a New Bern rental home:

• Summer time is high season in the New Bern area. Book your New Bern vacation home in Spring or Fall to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a New Bern vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• The sooner you can book, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are booked very early. Booking your vacation home six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your rental property.
• Owners sometimes offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family.
• Property managers typically offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Many rental management companies supply New Bern area visitors guide magazines which often include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find New Bern visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

How to choose the best rental in the New Bern area:

• Select a group leader, choose your trip dates, and choose a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your family needs. Little piece of heaven in your own back yard! has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always accessible online. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property management company before you reserve the property. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to establish what is right for your vacation.
• If there's a certain New Bern destination you crave, look for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater to your needs.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. .
• If your group is vacationing with pets, filter your search for a rental that allows animals. Make sure to ask for information on breed, size, and type requirements. Often, property owners charge additional pet fees.

More tips for your visit:

• Add the owner's contact info to your phone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• To ensure that damages are not linked to your stay, inspect the property for any problem areas upon check in. Call the property manager immediately to relay any damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or thermostat. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents quite a few difficulties.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant visitors bothering your peace and quiet. Apply the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and scenic spots you would've never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually help. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Lock your rental while you're away. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• Double-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings at departure. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean out 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 your group have a excellent vacation? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
