The Rate SeasonRental rates change according to the season, and that's sometimes confusing. To add to the confusion, not all rental agencies on the Crystal Coast use the same season schedule. It's always best to check with each rental company for specific season/rate changes. Most rental agencies on the east end of Bogue Banks and in other areas of Carteret County base rental rates on two seasons: in-season (Memorial Day through Labor Day) and off-season (any other time). On the west end of the island many rental agencies use a four-season schedule: May through mid-June and mid-August through September are mid-seasons; mid-June through mid-August is prime season; September through November and March through April are shoulder seasons; December through February is off-season or winter. Prime season is the most expensive time to rent a vacation accommodation. Vacation rentals can vary from $300 to more than $3,000 a week. You may find rates as much as 20 to 25 percent less in the shoulder season and off-season (after Labor Day and during the winter months) than in-season (Memorial Day through Labor Day). For that reason, many people prefer to vacation during the beautiful weather of the shoulder seasons — April and May and September through November. Decide what you need and call a
rental agency listed in the following pages. Remember, the base
rental rate a company lists is not the complete cost of renting, so
ask questions. Agencies add cleaning fees, which can range from $35
to $100. There are also taxes. In addition to North Carolina's sales
tax, Carteret County's occupancy tax is 5 percent. You also will
have to provide a security deposit (the amount varies with the
rental company), which will be refunded provided nothing is damaged.
