Feeling overworked and need a break from the grind? Named for the classic John Candy family vacation film, Summer Rental is the ideal 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. Finest of all, the beach is less than 100 feet away using the public access across the street.
The cavernous great room features vaulted ceilings and wood 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 everybody to savor meals together. A sun deck is located directly off the great room for effortless indoor/outdoor living, offering a magnificant 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 adore 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-refrigerator plus a full-size refrigerator in the rec room is ideal for convenient poolside drinks, snacks and cookouts. Two picnic tables will comfortably accommodate sizable outdoor gatherings.
No family pets allowed. No smoking/vaping. Please refer to the Rental Agreement while reviewing Rules & Policies for pool opening/closing dates.

Rental home tips:
Sticking to your rental budget:
- Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer vacation rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
- June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Booking your Nags Head vacation rental in Fall or Spring months is an excellent way to save money on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable properties. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season.
- Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner if your group qualifies for a price reduction.
- Property managers typically offer guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for details.
- Look for your local Nags Head visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guide magazines have coupons for local tours, shops, and attractions.
How to choose the best vacation home:
- Begin by selecting a vacation week and a max budget.
- Short Walk to Beach has 8 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
- Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed types is usually available on booking websites. Otherwise, call the property management company before you reserve the home. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to determine what is suitable for your family.
- If your group is bringing pets, you must reserve a pet-friendly vacation rental. Make sure to ask for information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Note that some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
- Are you visiting for a specific attraction or event? Try a map search to browse nearby properties.
- Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.
Considerations for your stay:
- Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the directions to your smartphone.
- Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or washer/dryer. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents lots of difficulties.
- Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let thieves ruin your vacation.
- To make sure damages aren't attributed to your stay, make note of any problem areas during check in. Call the rental manager immediately to document any damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
- Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You will enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are a fantastic resource to find the best local attractions.
- Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often help. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
- Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected all belongings. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
- Record a video to document the condition of the property.
- Did your group have a fantastic vacation? Most rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your property and/or host was wonderful, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was amiss and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
