Rental home tips and tricks:

How to get the best rental value:

• In the Wrightsville Beach area, The earlier your group can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The best rental homes are booked very early. Reserving your rental home 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your rental property.
• June, July, and August are high season in Oak Island. Reserving a rental home in Fall or Spring months is our best tip for saving money on your vacation.
