Feeling overworked and need a break from the grind? Named for the classic John Candy family vacation film, Summer Rental is the perfect destination for bringing the whole family together and making memories year after year. This well-equipped home is thoughtfully furnished and decorated with attention to detail, providing guests with that calming, "you're at the beach" feeling you've been looking for. Conveniently located at Milepost 17, Summer Rental provides the tranquility of the all-residential South Nags Head area while still being just a short drive away from grocery stores, shopping and dining. Best of all, the beach is less than 100 feet away using the public access across the street.
The spacious great room boasts vaulted ceilings and hardwood floors throughout, with an open-concept layout encouraging quality time spent together. When you're not eating out, a dining table for 12 and bar seating at the kitchen for six more allow everyone to enjoy meals together. A sun deck is located directly off the great room for effortless indoor/outdoor living, offering a fantastic view of the ocean. The loft space is set up as an office with complimentary high speed internet, which can be used for remote work or school. All TV's throughout the home provide both streaming capabilities and local cable channels.
Ideal for multiple or extended families, Summer Rental includes eight bedrooms, two of which provide ensuite bathrooms. The ground level sitting room and rec room serve as additional living areas, ensuring plenty of common space for hanging out (or spreading out!). Feeling competitive? Gather around the digital gaming table, or challenge friends and family to a game of pool, cornhole or horseshoes. Guests will love having their own private pool, hot tub and cornhole boards in the backyard for around-the-clock fun and relaxation. A wet bar with mini-fridge plus a full-size refrigerator in the rec room is perfect for convenient poolside drinks, snacks and cookouts. Two picnic tables will comfortably accommodate large outdoor gatherings.
No pets allowed. No smoking/vaping. Please refer to the Rental Agreement while reviewing Rules & Policies for pool opening/closing dates.

Nice property. Clean and had a lot of extras. Close to the pier for fishing and great restaurants nearby!

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your stay and found the property clean and well-equipped. Your feedback is greatly appreciated, as it helps us continue improving the guest experience. We hope you'll consider staying with us again in the future!
This was a fantastic property close to Jennette's Pier and the house was in great condition. Clean and roomy - very comfortable. We only rented for a partial week, but will definitely rent again next trip!
Choosing the Summer Rental for our OBX vacation was a win! We had three families with teens and tweens, and the layout and number of bedrooms and bathrooms were ideal for our group. The kitchen is stocked with so many thoughtful items; it was like being at home. For example, there are crock pots, blenders, pots for steaming seafood, numerous dishes, glasses, utensils, knives, coffee makers, and a waffle maker. The upper level is spacious and offers ample seating for eating meals, playing games, and socializing. When we were at the house, we enjoyed using the pool, hot tub, pool table, and yard games. Importantly, it is an easy walk across the street to beach access. We also like that the Summer Rental sits back from the two neighboring houses and that next to and behind it are trees and vegetation, which makes the setting feel more private. Staying at a comfortable and convenient property helped us have a happy and memorable family vacation.
