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 appreciate 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.

Tips to get the very best rental home experience:

Find your perfect rental home:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Beaufort, NC area. Book your Beaufort, NC vacation in Spring or Fall to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Beaufort, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Winter holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a discount.
• Booking websites often offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Beaufort, NC visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitors guide magazines have deals for nearby tours and attractions.

Finding the perfect rental in New Bern:

• Select your vacation dates and spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your group requires. Little piece of heaven in your own back yard! has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Beaufort, NC rentals search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually accessible on booking websites. Otherwise, contact the property manager before you reserve your home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds. You'll need to determine what bed configuration is suitable for your vacation.
• Are you looking for particular amenities? Most websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Ask for details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Be aware that some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

More tips for your stay:

• Take a copy of the host's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property.
• Upon arrival, document any issues with the property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, intercom or thermostat. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent quite a few difficulties.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often help. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are away, just like you would back home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the rental property to reconfirm you've collected all belongings. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental one final time and look for any damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever you can. If the host is not available, ensure that you take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Property managers rely on great reviews to drive future bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
