Tips and Tricks to get the very best Carolina Beach vacation property experience:

Sticking to a rental budget:

• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are the most expensive season in Bald Head Island. Booking in Fall or Spring is one of our best tips for saving money on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable homes.
• Some hosts and property managers offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group.
• Property management companies usually offer their guests an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
• Many property management companies supply Carolina Beach area travel guide magazines which will include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Selecting the best rental home in Bald Head Island:

• Start by choosing potential vacation weeks and a max budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Salty Dog exudes relaxed beach vibes and delights with awesome ocean vistas. has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly accessible on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, call the property owner before booking your home. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly property. Make sure to ask for details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Note that some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
• If there's an individual Carolina Beach attraction you crave, search for properties that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking.

More considerations for your visit:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Add a note with the instructions to your smartphone, and take a printed backup.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, intercom or thermostat. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents many issues.
• Keep your rental home locked while you're away! Don't let thieves ruin your vacation.
• To make sure that damages aren't attributed to your visit, inspect the rental for any problem areas upon check in. E-mail the host immediately to document any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Respect your neighbors. Often, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually help. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• At departure, complete a walk-through to make sure you have not forget any personal items. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the property a final time and look for any damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, take pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Did your family have a excellent vacation? Many rental management companies make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was amiss and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
