About this house rental

HUGE DISCOUNTS for the remaining weeks of the season, starting with MEMORIAL DAY!

Welcome to the 2024 season!
We have learned a lot about health and safety in the last four years. We continue to disinfect between guests and leave plenty of hand sanitizer out. Also the laundry will be fully supplied with detergent so you can use it to your hearts contest.

The Simple Life is a family friendly vacation house, not an office, however the past three years many of our guests worked remotely or “attended school” while at The Simple Life, so we upgraded the WiFi - new password displayed on the bottom of the new router- and added an air printer, located in the TV cabinet in the living room. Just plug it in, and go! If you need more ink and paper, please replenish and leave it for the next guests!
Here is to a safe and Simple Life!

This gorgeous property is for year around enjoyment! The Simple Life is located in the beautiful, wooded Sanderling section of Duck, NC, a 3 minute, short, 180 yard walk to the beach on a level, tree lined street with no road to cross! The free use of the Sanderling community pool and kiddie pool, an easy bike ride away - located directly on the Sound -is included with rental. Nature trails delight everyone. It is also a bikers paradise! Bikes can be rented at several rental agencies in nearby Duck.

This luxurious home offers two king-size Master Bedrooms En-suite (one on each level), a queen size bedroom and a room with two twin beds.

This was our second time staying at The Simple Life. In every way it was a wonderful experience. The property is clean, comfortable, spacious, well equipped, well maintained, and located within just a few minutes' walking distance of the beach. Highly recommended.

We couldn't have been happier with "The Simple Life". The house was spacious and the location was perfect. What a beautiful, quick walk to the beach under shady trees We really preferred Duck over other areas of the OBX - quiet and peaceful but still close to everything we needed. The house was just as pictured and described. We found it clean and spacious. The kitchen was well-equipped for preparing all of our meals. We loved the huge island for preparing and enjoying meals. There was ample seating in the dining room, the living room was large, and we enjoyed all of the porches and balconies. We were happy to find lots of goodies supplied for enjoying the beach - chairs, boogie boards, and even a wagon for hauling all of our stuff. The outdoor shower was hugely useful to wash off the sand from the beach. We enjoyed the pool a few time, too. What a nice extra! We took a wild horse tour, visited the Wright Brothers museum, and visited sights on Roanoke Island. Other than those trips, we just relaxed and enjoyed the beach.

The house was very spacious and has a great location. We had a lot of fun at the beach and on an air boat adventure. My daughter really enjoyed the juicer and made all sorts of drinks.
