How to Save $900+ on Your Smoky Mountain & Myrtle Beach Family Vacation
Planning a family vacation to the Smoky Mountains or Myrtle Beach? You're probably already budgeting for accommodations, meals, and gas. But have you factored in the biggest expense of all—attraction tickets?
Most families spend $200-400 per day on theme parks, aquariums, ziplines, and other must-see attractions. For a typical week-long vacation, that's $1,400-2,800 just on tickets. Ouch.
But what if I told you there's a way to get the first ticket free at every single attraction you visit, every single day—just by choosing the right vacation rental?
The Hidden Cost of Family Vacations
Let's be honest: attraction tickets add up fast. A family of four visiting the Smoky Mountains might pay:
- Dollywood: $89/adult, $79/child = $336 for one day
- Ripley's Aquarium of the Smokies: $39.99/adult, $24.99/child = $130
- Anakeesta: $34.99/adult, $24.99/child = $120
- Zipline adventure: $60-100/person = $240-400
- Mini golf, go-karts, museums: Another $100-200
Total: Easily $900-1,200+ for just a few days of activities.
The same goes for Myrtle Beach families:
- Broadway at the Beach attractions: $20-50/person
- Ripley's Aquarium Myrtle Beach: $34.99/adult, $24.99/child
- Water parks: $40-60/person
- Parasailing, jet skis, boat tours: $50-150/person
- Dinner shows and entertainment: $40-80/person
Before you know it, your "affordable" beach vacation just doubled in price.
What If You Could Visit Every Attraction and Get the First Ticket Free—Every Day?
Here's where most vacation rental companies stop: they give you a clean place to stay, maybe some nice amenities, and call it a day.
We do things differently.
When you book with Beach and Mountain Rental, you don't just get a beautiful cabin or beachfront condo. You get the first ticket free at every single attraction you visit, every single day of your stay, through our exclusive partnership with Xplorie.
That's right—no extra cost, no hidden fees, no gimmicks. Visit as many attractions as you want each day and get the first ticket free at every single one. Come back the next day and do it all over again.

Why We Offer This (And Why No One Else Does)
We've been in the vacation rental business for over 25 years. In that time, we've learned one thing: families want more than just a place to sleep. They want an experience. They want memories.
That's why we partnered with Xplorie to offer something no other vacation rental company in our markets can match—daily first-ticket-free access to over 21 Smoky Mountain attractions and over 16 Myrtle Beach attractions.
Most property management companies are too new, too big, or too impersonal to secure partnerships like this. We're a small, family-owned business that's been serving families since 1999. We have the relationships, the reputation, and the commitment to go the extra mile.
And here's the best part: This isn't a limited-time promotion. It's not a bait-and-switch. It's how we do business, every single day.
Real Families, Real Savings
"We saved over $800 and packed in so much fun!"
— The Johnson Family, Ohio
"We couldn't believe it when we realized we could visit multiple attractions each day and get the first ticket free at every single one. We hit Dollywood, the aquarium, Anakeesta, and mini golf all in one day—four free tickets! The next day we did ziplines, go-karts, and a museum. By the end of the week, we'd visited 15 different attractions and saved over $800. Beach and Mountain Rental made our dream vacation actually affordable!"
"Best value we've ever found for a Myrtle Beach vacation."
— The Martinez Family, Georgia
"We've been coming to Myrtle Beach for years, and we always dread the cost of attractions. This year, we stayed with Beach and Mountain Rental and took advantage of the Xplorie benefits every single day. We visited the aquarium, mini golf, a dinner show, and water sports all in one day—four free tickets! We did it again the next day with different attractions. We saved hundreds and had the time of our lives. We'll never book anywhere else."
