Dog-friendly house with ocean view, pool access, washer/dryer, & tennis court

New in our program, this home has many great reviews from past guests.

Waking Dream: Spacious 4-bedroom, dog-friendly Avon beach home featuring stunning ocean views, three king bedrooms, expansive decks, and a beach access walkway just steps from the driveway.

Make your Hatteras Island vacation a Waking Dream! Located in a quiet North Avon neighborhood, this welcoming 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath semi-oceanfront home offers beautiful Atlantic views, spacious living areas, and a beach access walkway just steps from the driveway. With plenty of room for family, friends, and your four-legged companions, it's the perfect setting for a relaxing coastal vacation.

The bright and airy upper-level living area features soaring cathedral ceilings, comfortable furnishings, and breathtaking ocean views. Gather for family meals in the spacious, well-equipped kitchen with a convenient breakfast bar, or settle into the living area to relax after a day in the sun. For a little extra entertainment, head up to the tower room, complete with a 42-inch TV and surround sound, perfect for movie nights or a quiet retreat.

With three king bedrooms and a fourth bedroom featuring a queen bed and twin-over-twin bunk, Waking Dream offers comfortable accommodations for families and groups traveling together. Each bedroom includes a TV and ceiling fan, while three bedrooms offer direct access to the decks, making it easy to step outside and enjoy the coastal breeze.

Some of the home's best features are waiting outdoors! Relax on the expansive furnished decks, watch dolphins playing in the surf, or enjoy your morning coffee with the sunrise over the Atlantic. When you're ready for the beach, the nearby walkway makes heading toward the ocean a breeze. After a day in the sand, rinse off in the enclosed outdoor shower or take advantage of the seasonal community pool and tennis courts.

With its incredible ocean views, generous sleeping arrangements, and convenient beach access, Waking Dream has everything you need to make lasting Hatteras Island memories.

Around Avon Village: There's plenty to enjoy beyond the beach! Grab fresh local seafood, browse locally owned shops, or cast a line from the historic Avon Fishing Pier. Outdoor enthusiasts can take advantage of nearby ORV beach access ramps or head to the Haulover Day Use Area for easy sound access, watersports, and beautiful views across the Pamlico Sound.

Community Amenities: The Club Hatteras Community Pool and Playground are located at 41156 NC Hwy 12 Avon, NC 27915. The pool is generally open seasonally. Please note that the operation of community pool dates and times may vary dependent on weather and pool management companies.

Beach Access: The beach access walkway is just steps from the house! Located at 39301 Angelfish Road in Avon, Waking Dream sits approximately 20 feet from the entrance to the nearby neighborhood beach walkway. Follow the walkway toward the ocean and continue over the sandy dunes to reach the beach. Please be aware that the dune crossing includes soft sand and may be challenging for guests with mobility limitations or heavy beach equipment.

No Smoking/Vaping. Dog Friendly - 2 Dogs Maximum Allowed. Dogs allowed for an additional per pet fee.

Parking for 4 cars.

Please Note: As a barrier island, Hatteras is constantly changing. Beach conditions, dunes, and access points may vary due to erosion, restoration projects, weather, and other environmental factors.

Great Getaway

Waking Dream has a lot of space and is perfect for a family or several couples. We loved the open floor plan on the second floor and numerous porch views. Plenty of room to spread out. The ocean is close by, parking is perfect with room to clean off gear at the end of the day.

Clean, Comfortable and Close to the Beach!

Excellent rental property with all the amenities required for a perfect week’s vacation! Beds were comfortable, furnishings were clean and appropriate for a beach house. Beautiful views from the oceanfront deck. Short steps to the beach just over the dune across from the house. I would highly recommend this property! Excellent value for the price!

Wonderful stay

Waking Dream was everything I expected and more. Very close to beach walkway. Amazing views of the ocean from the great room and front deck. Also great soundside view of sunset from screened in area. The kitchen was wonderfully equipped with everything you could need. The house was very clean throughout. We will definitely stay here again.

Great beach location

The house was very nice and just as listed. Great beach access and views. The "locals" neighbors gave us a somewhat hard time, and the mosquitos and flies were awful. Bring LOTS of repellent. There were a number of roach-like bugs in the house as well.

Great Older Place!

Loved the layout of this place. Nice ocean view from the top deck. Comfortably furnished with tasteful artwork throughout. Conveniently located at the end of a cul-de-sac, at a beach access point. Still a pretty good haul to the beach itself, which may be difficult for younger children or elderly folks. Liked the place though and most likely will return!

Waking Dream visit 2021

The house was clean and had a well equipped kitchen with mostly everything you would want or need. The description of the location to the beach is slightly deceptive - beach access is very close but the actual walk to the beach is longer than anticipated. We still had a wonderful, relaxing week and would definitely recommend this house to others.

Dated home, great location

The house is well situated (great beach access) and nicely laid out but needs updating and deep cleaning. Carpets and furniture upholstery appear soiled, window glass needs cleaning, and cushions on screened in porch were in shreds. Also, be careful of nails sticking out of deck boards.

Beautiful view, close to the beach, great house layout

My husband's parents and our family (2 parents, 3 kids) stayed in Waking Dream the week of August 11-18. The house is beautiful, nicely decorated and roomy, with a great kitchen/living room layout for socializing and enjoying a lovely view of the ocean in air-conditioned comfort :) The beds were quite comfortable and we had plenty of space in the bedrooms. The kids loved the loft bed! The location was perfect. We were about 20 feet from the beach access walkway, so we could go on and off the beach without a second thought. The street itself was pretty and quiet. We were close to plenty of shops, food places and the Food Lion in town, and there was even a gluten-free muffin place a few blocks down the road! We truly enjoyed our stay in Waking Dream!

Nice vacation spot!

Waking Dream is a wonderful vacation spot! It's right off the beach. You do need to traverse significant dunes, but that's true for all houses in Avon. The view from the great room is beautiful and unencumbered! Avon is away from the main drags, but in these times that's a major plus. The beach is spacious and not crowded. Plus, the night sky is spectacular. You still have DQ, Food Lion, and Duck Donuts. What more could you want? A few critiques: the cleaning prior to our arrival could have been a bit more thorough. Also, the management company could have been a bit more generous with starter amenities. Be prepared to bring or buy soap and shampoo if you stay more than a few days.

Not a pleasant stay

We booked for November, knowing it would be chilly. When we arrived at 7pm, the temp in the house was 50 degrees. We killed two cockroaches and had various dead bugs throughout the house. For the price, this should have been better. It felt like we were camping. It appeared as though they dropped off towels but haven't cleaned the home thoroughly in a long time. The dishwasher was broken. Would not stay here again!

Close Beach Access; Cozy

The close beach access is nice. Remember though, this is Avon and you still have to contend with a dune to get out to the beach. But, 4x4 access is close by, which was is nice. The house has some updates, the new deck and counter tops are nice. There is some water damage in parts of the ceiling, but hey, it's a beach house. It could use a deep clean under the beds, furniture, etc. But it was clean enough when we arrived. Having the TV up in the loft instead of the main living area is a great idea. It keeps the sound at bay when the kids are in bed. Bring a gate if you have Littles and the loft can be a great play area, as well. Could use some better pans and cooking utensils. The neighborhood was quiet. We had a great time and would stay again.

Beware: Mice live here. Waking Dream could be a Waking Nightmare.

Pros: Great location on quiet barrier island of OBX. Cool house layout with lots of rooms/baths. Great view of the water from patio and upper living room. Patio furniture made it a great place to chill day or night. Living room and kitchen were wide open and monster ceilings with ton of windows. Cons: Couple mouse sighting (Vacasa didn't seem to care when I pointed it out and asked them to investigate). One of the side bathrooms smelled like raw sewage. Some of the blinds broken around the house. One cockroach sighting. Ground level just needs general cleanup and landscaping to make it look a bit nicer. Overall: If didnt run into mice would likely consider coming back here. For what you paying, not worth it. With Vacasa not caring about my concerns, I wouldn't do this again. Too many other nice houses in OBX to come back to this one with these pest issues.

Not what we expected

We wanted to like this home. The inside layout worked perfectly. The sheets and blankets, bathrooms and kitchen were clean. Be sure to bring all of your toiletries… toilet paper, hand soap as well as paper towels and so on. Pack like you’re camping. There were stained carpets and furniture, a broken ceiling fan, and a rusty dryer. I took photos if anyone asks me for them. The light switches were gross. The outside was dirty and overgrown which ruined the whole vibe. The grill was filthy and we chose not to use it. The hike to the beach (even though close) was rough especially if you are lugging beach stuff. We weren't prepared for that. It’s an uphill climb in very loose sand. The beach itself was an awesome location. Overall, we would still use Vacasa because we’ve used them before but would not return to this particular property.
