☆ Pests: Hatteras Island is home to midges, tiny seasonal bugs that are harmless and do not bite, but they can appear in sizable numbers. To keep them out, we recommend keeping doors closed as much as possible and turning off outdoor lights at nighttime, as light attracts them. We regularly treat the area, but they may still be present outdoors. Bug spray is a great idea for appreciating the deck and outdoor areas. Additionally, snakes from the close by marsh can occasionally be spotted. If you see one on the property, please contact us immediately, and we will arrange for animal control to remove it.

Tips to get the best vacation rental experience:

Find your perfect rental:

• June, July, and August are high season in the Hatteras area. To find the best value, consider changing your family's Hatteras trip dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer great weather, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic.
• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during Winter holiday get-togethers. Reserve 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 vacationing group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Many property management companies supply Hatteras area travel guide magazines that include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Hatteras visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Choosing the perfect rental home:

• Choose your vacation dates and maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration your group requires. Pescadora: Waterfront Retreat w Private Dock, by Rather Be Properties has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Hatteras rentals search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always accessible on booking websites. If not, email the property owner before you book the vacation home. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches.
• If there's a specific Hatteras destination you are enamored with, search for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking
• If your group is vacationing with pets, search for a rental that allows animals. Ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Be aware that some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

Have a wonderful stay:

• Put the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• Make a record of any damages to the rental upon arrival, and immediately contact the property manager. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are helpful if a dispute is filed.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You will enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a fantastic source for finding the best local scenic spots.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Keep the property locked while you're away! Don't let thieves spoil your trip.
• Re-check the rental property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings at departure. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property a final time and scan for damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can. If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a wonderful vacation? Most rental websites make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your property and/or property management company was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
