Finding your perfect vacation home:

• Summertime is the most expensive season in Atlantic Beach. Reserve your Beaufort, NC vacation home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August.

Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.

• Upon check-out, take a final walk-through to confirm you haven't forget any personal items. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property a final time and keep an eye out for damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the property manager is not available, take pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
