Our party of four adults found the house exceptionally clean and well appointed. We loved the way the house is decorated with nice art work and shelves with all types of seaside pieces that set the tone for a beach stay and made the house feel homey. The kitchen is well equipped and made our cooking easy. Beds were comfortable and there was an abundance of toiletries and plenty of towels and wash cloths along with well stocked shower/ body and hair soaps. The washer and dryer both were quiet and worked well. The location was the best thing for me as it is on the beach side and you can get to the beach in less than a minutes walk. Hearing the waves pound from the screened porch at night was very calming and inside the furniture was very comfortable and more than enough space for all. I hope to be back next year and would definitely stay here again. Contact with our host was fast and easy.

Great little beach house that was exceptionally clean and in a fantastic location. Crystal was an outstanding host who went out of her way to travel to the property and send me a video showing the quality of the beach and access in Buxton. I would highly recommend anyone to stay at the Beach Dreamer.
