Rental home booking tips:

Getting the best value:

• June, July, and August are high season in the Charleston area area. Booking your vacation rental in Fall or Spring months is our favorite way to save money on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable homes.
• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager if your group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Property management companies frequently offer renters an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs 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 disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Charleston area area visitor guides which will include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Charleston area area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Begin by selecting trip dates and a budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration you need. Charming Fort Sumter Cottage has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually available online. If they are not listed, reach out to the host before reserving the rental. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches.
• Visiting for a single attraction or event? Use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental
• If your group is bringing pets, filter your search for a property that allows animals. Ask for information on breed, size, and type restrictions. Often, hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

Advice for a fantastic stay:

• Take a copy of the property manager's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property. We recommend storing the host's information in your smartphone.
• At Check-in, note any damages to the property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, stereo or kitchen appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent many difficulties.
• Respect your neighbors. Often times, adjacent homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can typically help. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home while you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Re-check the rental property to make sure that you've packed all belongings on check-out day. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your group have a fantastic time? Many rental management companies make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your rental and/or host was wonderful, they would love to hear it. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
