I am not offering luxury cards this year and, as far as I know, the only way to get them is through a home owner who is offering them.

I'm trying to rent from a Saturday OR to a Saturday during the summer season because that's when I have to make nearly all my income for the year. If I "cross the week-end" I'm much more likely to end up with little pockets of days that are very difficult -- or impossible -- to rent. My goal is to avoid short pockets of unrented days and also to allow people looking for a full week to be able to rent from Saturday to Saturday.

Tips to get the perfect rental home experience:

Get the most from your rental home budget:

• Summer is high season in Fripp Island. To get the best vacation home for your budget, we suggest reserving in Fall or Spring months. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at local restaurants, tours, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Beaufort, SC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• In the Beaufort, SC area, The sooner you can book a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental properties are reserved early. Booking your rental up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental property.
• Some property management companies offer promotional rates for veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Property management companies often offer renters an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Look for your local Beaufort, SC visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local articles, travel guides contain offers and deals for nearby accommodations, tours and attractions.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Select a group leader, select your vacation dates, and choose a spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. Ocean Views, Mid-Island, Main 3BR2BA + Guest 1BR1BA House s has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed types is generally accessible on booking websites. If not, email the property management company before you book the property. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to establish which bed configuration is right for your trip.
• If there's a particular Beaufort, SC beach you crave, look for rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to book a property that allows animals. Make sure to ask for information on breed, size, and type requirements. Note that some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.

During your stay:

• Add the property manager's information to your phone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Upon check-in, record any issues with the property and immediately alert the property manager. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, stereo or thermostat. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent quite a few problems.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often, nearby 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! Locals can typically help. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all belongings. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take photographs of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a terrific stay? Most rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your property and/or property manager was wonderful, they would love to hear about it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
