Savor a attractively refreshed landscaping, a modern interior, a plethora of amenities, and plenty of deck space for soaking in that ocean breeze! Your family can spend their days splashing in the community pool, soaking in the bubbly hot tub, playing a friendly match at the community tennis court, or reeling in a catch from the close by fishing lake. When you're ready to hit the sand, the nearest beach access is just a short 3-min. walk (0.1 miles) away.

When you get back from the beach, effortlessly rinse off the sand in the sizable outdoor shower. The 7-acre community fishing lake is just a 1-min. walk away and provides a peaceful spot for a delightful evening walk. If you reel in the big one, you'll appreciate being able to use the fish cleaning station outside before you throw your catch-of-the-day on the charcoal grille for dinner! Be sure to let your four-legged family members run around outside in the fenced-in backyard for an impressive vacation of their own. Step inside to the game room where you can play a round of pool on the pool table. There's also a couch, TV and a wet bar with a mini-refrigerator located on the ground level. For a little additional privacy, relax in the King Master Bedroom with a TV and additional Sitting Area, so there's always room for everybody to spread out and get comfortable!

Head upstairs to the mid-level and you will find three of the home's four bedrooms including a king master bedroom with its own private bathroom, a bedroom with a queen bed, and a final bedroom with 2 twin bunk beds. A full bathroom is located down the hallway and is shared by the queen and bunk bedrooms. All three bedrooms have sliders that allow access to the covered furnished decks, which are the ideal place for reading a book when you want to stay in the shade. Also located on the mid-level covered decks is the bubbly hot tub, where you'll want to relax at the end of each day.

The top-level is where you'll appreciate gathering together in the bright and airy living area with all-new LVP floor, cathedral ceilings, and plenty of comfortable furnishings centered around a enormous flat screen TV for catching up on your favorite show or watching a good movie. On nights you prefer to prepare at home, you'll adore the cavernous kitchen that comes entirely supplied with everything you need including a flat top stove, constructed-in microwave, dishwasher, and side-by-side refrigerator. The adjoining dining area has plenty of seating, but if you need additional space, there are 4 bar chairs located at the kitchen island. If you're in the mood to dine al fresco, step through the sliding doors from the dining area into the screened porch, and appreciate the ocean breeze at the picnic table under the twinkling cafe lights strung above. The spacious top-level sun deck is ideal for working on your tan or gazing out at the sunset on a warm summer evening. If you want to partake in a family-friendly card game, head back inside and up a few steps to the captain's watch with a modest table and spectacular Corolla vistas. Rest painless in the final king master bedroom with a private bathroom. A convenient half bath is located on the landing between the mid and top levels.

Our top Rental home booking tips and tricks:

Get the best rental value:

• The earlier your group can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable properties are reserved early. Booking your rental property up to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation rental.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. To find the best value, shift your family's Currituck vacation week to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer excellent temperatures, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Currituck vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your family.
• Property managers frequently offer customers an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Currituck area magazine upon arrival. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitor guides contain discounts for local accommodations, tours and attractions.

Narrow your rental Search:

• Select vacation dates and spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. 1671 Semper Summer * 3 Min Walk to Beach has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Currituck rental home search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed types is generally accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, call the property owner before you book the rental. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds.
• Some rentals allow pets, and others do not. Allowable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the host about pet restrictions before booking.
• Are you visiting for a single event? Use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Know before you go:

• Add the host's information to your phone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, intercom or washer/dryer. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents lots of difficulties.
• Keep the property locked while you are gone! Don't let burglars spoil your vacation.
• To ensure that damages are not attributed to your stay, record any problem areas when you arrive. message the rental manager immediately to document any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome visitors disrupting your peace and quiet. Use the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and places you would've not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Upon check-out, complete a walk-through to make sure you did not forget any personal items. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the property a final time and scan for any damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can. If the manager is not available, ensure that you take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property managers rely on great feedback to drive more reservations. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will appreciate that you share your feedback find their best vacation home. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
