Emerald Isle rental home booking tips and tricks:

Cost saving strategies:

Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a New Bern vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Some property managers offer discounts for veterans. Check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
