Rental property booking tips and tricks:

Get the most from your rental budget:

• The sooner you can reserve a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental properties are reserved early.

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Kill Devil Hills area. To get the best value, try shifting your family's Kill Devil Hills trip dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer warmer temperatures, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Kill Devil Hills vacation!

Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
