Great location, cozy spot

Was as advertised. Owner was very prompt in fixing an issue with the AC. There were some issues with flies and bugs, but this was to be expected for a property in the OBX.

Sweet Vacation!

Sweet Dreams had everything we needed for a fabulous stay! Great location, comfortable accommodations, clean, well maintained and equipped. We definitely plan to come back next year! Added bonus was the supply of linens and towels. However, guests are expected to wash and dry before leaving!

Sweet beach cottage

Sweet Dreams was just the right size for our family of six and our furbabies! The place was clean and nicely decorated. The cottage is located in my favorite area of OBX. Short walk to the beach, pier and some awesome restaurants. We will definitely be back!

Great beach house

Stayed for a week in August last year (2015) and we loved it so much we rented again last week. Cute and clean. Close to beach and restaurants and shopping. And dog friendly so our dogs had a great vacation as well! Would highly recommend and we are already talking about going next summer!

Perfect OBX getaway

The Sweet Dreams house was perfect for our family of two adults and two teenage girls z the house had everything we needed. The best part was location! Walk to the beach, target, and dinner! Driving to either end of the OuterBanks was east from the house.

Sweet Dreams hit the spot.

We were looking for a place at the Outer Banks to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary, which is July 4th. Sweet Dreams house was perfect. It was comfy and just a short walk to the beach and restaurants. Good location and a good price.

Everything we had hoped for

My family and I had a wonderful time here. The location honestly couldn’t be better. Super short walking distance to the beach, short walking distance to Target! Everything else is a short drive away! The house itself is very nice, very clean and all the amenities are there. We couldn’t have asked for more on our first trip to OBX.

Great Stay at Sweet Dreams

We had a wonderful stay at Sweet Dreams. It was a perfect size for the three of us. Beds were comfortable as were the couches in the living room. It was a lovely beach cottage. You couldn’t have picked a more perfect location to buy your house. The walk to the beach was so easy. And after a day at the beach, the outdoor shower was so useful and appreciated. The location was also close to some wonderful restaurants. We did have a problem using TV and accessing internet. At other places we’ve stayed in the past, owners had binders with info about using appliances throughout the house. That would be our only suggestion. We are so grateful that the house was available for our shorter stay.
