“Salty Sandpiper” is the perfect spot to unplug, de-stress and plug in to the family! Located in Sanderling, a community known for its quaint, quiet streets, laid back atmosphere, and family-friendly amenities, you will go home feeling like an Outer Banks local in the “island zone”. Located on a tidal pond alongside a nature trail, it is an easy walk to the less-crowded beach. Take in the sunset over the sound, which is also just a quick walk away. No congestion of huge mansions here, everyone is there for the same reason: Beach, family, and outdoor living. “Salty Sandpiper” is located on tree lined streets perfect for biking, walking, or jogging. Enjoy the expansive decks with access from four bedrooms and the living room. Relax in the hot tub as you soak in privacy surrounded by beautiful oaks.

The sound front community amenities offer panoramic views of the sound. The community pool is offered to all guests, and tennis courts are available for a small fee. The community sound front walkway over the water will give you hours of pleasure with the kids crabbing, bird watching, or putting in the kayaks. The Sanderling community is located in North Duck, away from the hustle and bustle of the village, but just a few minutes' drive away for shopping, restaurants, entertainment and a children's playground. Drive north to Corolla for more dining, shopping and family activities, as well as a championship golf course designed by Rees Jones. The best of both worlds are at your fingertips.

The property sits in a pretty, wooded area. The 7-minute walk to the beach was easy. The house was very comfortable.

Peaceful & Friendly
Such a lovely home in a well-maintained community in the "quiet end" of Duck! The house has everything you need, and the owners have done a really nice job of progressively upgrading things throughout the years. The hot tub & bikes were amazing for our spring trip. The neighbors - who are now year-rounders - were super friendly and made great restaurant recommendations. We honestly cannot wait to return and would 100% stay at the Salty Sandpiper again.

Missed the character and personal touches.
While the house had the exact space we needed and a location that couldn’t be beat, something was amiss. The house itself doesn’t have much character and it comes bare bones. The list of what to expect to bring I do not believe fully addressed the needs when walking into the house. To have a few extra towels, more in the way of cleaning supplies (maybe a sponge at least to clean dishes?), some spices in the kitchen (not even salt and pepper) involved an additional trip out to the store. “Condiments” doesn’t always cut it. The house was pristinely clean and was an excellent space for our two families, but when a house like this is taken care of by their owners, as opposed to a realtor, I feel a personal touch to the experience was missing. The first night we experienced a leaking kitchen sick. Called the property management that evening and left a message. Texted the next morning but we had already gone ahead and repaired it ourselves. Someone came to check on it two days later and we were never once made aware anyone would even be entering the home. This could have been handled more efficiently and the property management company should have made us aware of someone entering our home. We were not even at the house at the time. Was more like a hotel than a home.

Nice House
Easy to book and communicate with the property management company. The only issue we had was with the cable tv and the management company offered to send someone out right away. The walk to the beach is a quick 5 min through a very nice neighborhood. My family had a great stay.

Tranquil getaway in OBX
We really enjoyed our stay in this home. The neighborhood is quiet - not much traffic and lots of shady trees. From the top deck, you’re in the tree canopy and it’s a unique experience. The kids loved riding their bikes around the block as well as spending time at the beach. A quick walk takes you to a pier on the sound that is a lovely place to watch the sunset. While not right on the beach, it’s only a five minute walk to get there, and we enjoyed the friendly neighbors and the sweet smelling jasmine flowers near the dunes.

Lovely home in a lovely neighborhood
This house is in a perfect location. The beach and sound are both within walking distance, but the beach--the main attraction--is the easiest to get to. The house is spacious and fits folks comfortably. The only critique I have is that the TV is a bit outdated. It would be good to have a TV that has apps like Netflix and Disney+ so that guests can use their own login for the occasional TV entertainment. The rental company managing the property is professional, knowledgable, and very responsive. I found them delightful to work with.

Great house and beach location!
Loved our stay at the Salty Sandpiper! My sister and I stayed with our partners for a week just to work from somewhere other than home, and it was perfect. Walking distance to the beach and the sound, lots of privacy, and a short drive from anywhere you'd want to go in Duck (and central to both Corolla and the more southern OBX). Hot tub was a huge bonus (we used it nearly every night) and the house had lots of room so we all had our own space. I will say, take the binder's warnings about the midges (small annoying but harmless bugs in the area) seriously! Nothing the property owners can do about them, being near water just brings them out, but definitely listen to the binder's advice on how to deal with them!

Terrific stay
Our family included 6 adults and 4 children and 2 dogs and this house worked out so well! Very spacious, very comfortable, well taken care of. About a 3-5min walk onto the beach, but we have small kiddos and didn't want to be right on the beach. Would recommend this house to friends!
