Tips and Tricks to get the perfect Charleston area vacation home experience:

Finding the best value:

• June, July, and August are high season in Charleston. Booking in Fall or Spring months is our favorite way to save money on your vacation. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Charleston area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during Winter holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your group qualifies for a special rate.
• Property managers often offer renters an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Charleston area visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitor guide magazines contain offers and deals for nearby tours and attractions.

How to choose and book your prefect Charleston area rental home:

• Begin by choosing vacation dates and a spending budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration your family needs. The Lodge Alley Inn, Studio, Parade Through Cultural Capital Of The South has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed types is generally accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, contact the property owner before you book your rental. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Visiting for a specific attraction or event? If so, use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you'll need to find a rental that allows animals. Request details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Often, property managers charge pet deposits and fees.

Considerations for your stay:

• Add the owner's contact information to your phone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Note any issues with the rental upon arrival, and immediately contact the owner. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be valuable if damages are assessed.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are a terrific resource to find the best local spots.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are out, just like you would at home.
• Just before checking out, take a walk-through to confirm you didn't leave anything behind. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental one final time and look for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, ensure that you take video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a fantastic time? Most rental management companies make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your property and/or property management company was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was inoperable and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
