About this property
Semi-oceanfront home on the 4x4 beaches with gorgeous views!
At Carole's Dream on the beautiful 4x4 beaches of Penny's Hill, experience a beach vacation reminiscent of vintage OBX! Sleep to the sounds of the ocean and enjoy amazing views of the night sky, full of beautiful stars. The whole family, including your four-legged family member, can enjoy this pet-friendly (dogs only) unique get-a-way. Carole's Dream is the ideal semi-oceanfront retreat located on our Northern 4x4 beaches. This home also features a water filtration system.
Ocean views are plentiful, and the beach is only 350 feet from the house. Carova is renowned for wide, clean beaches; regarded as some of the most beautiful on the Outer Banks.

During your stay at this charming cottage, you will likely see the wild horses grazing on the back roads or in your yard.
