Best of all, it's BRAND NEW and VERY AFFORDABLE!! Compare prices and you will see!! Westside of 158 at MILEPOST 5 1/2....Your rate includes routine cleaning - we do NOT charge extra fees!!
Also, unlike many of the properties listed on this rental "by owner" site, this property actually is rented by the owner! Many of the rental companies on the Outer Banks are now using this site to further promote their clients' properties. In other words, you will be going through a "rental company" even though you found the property on VRBO. And with rental companies comes the cost disadvantages. We are the owners and managers of this property and we have no overhead or hidden fees to pass on to you. Just a great deal on a great cottage.

Brand New Affordable 3BR Cottage- "Sun Dreams"
The Unique Benefits at this Cottage
We love to stay at Sun Dreams. It is literally a dream come true for us to own a property on the Outer Banks. We have been vacationing there since we were kids. Now we are grown with our own kids and recently built Sun Dreams. While vacationing on the Outer Banks, I especially enjoy the deck and the beach. My husband enjoys the fishing, both on the pier and offshore. We like to ride our bikes to some of the nearby restaurants. Love Chilipeppers, Rundown Cafe, and Tortugas. Breakfast at Henry's. For coffee it's the Southern Bean, 1/2 mile away. Paradise Fun Park, within walking/biking distance, has recently expanded to not only have putt putt golf and arcade, but also electric go carts (fast)and bumper cars. And on the rainy day that you hopefully won't experience too often, hit up the outlet mall or the movies or the aquarium. Whether you like to do and see alot or just like to relax, there's something for everyone and for every age.

Cottage is just as described in other reviews - clean, centrally located and well stocked.Weather was way less than perfect during our stay (tropical storm and all that!) but deck provided a nice place to read and relax with a glass of wine and watch the rain and wind effects. Recommend Chilipeppers for shrimp, Black Pelican for pizza, Capt Franks for Hot Dogs and best find of all was Kill Devil Grill - great meal! Found it odd there was not a separate container to collect recycling materials - we just dropped our recyclables off in the containers you can find at the public beach accesses on Beach Rd.
Recommended for:Adventure seekers, girls getaway, families with young children.

We rented for a week in July, and it was amazing. The AC works great--sometimes too good, and the deck made for a fantastic place to sit and enjoy early mornings or evenings. The bay wasn't that enjoyable for us, but we liked to go out and watch the sunset there. The close access to the beach made for an easy beach day. This house is located in the middle of everything, which made it easy to get from place to place. The beach umbrella that was in the shed, was very much appreciated, as were the 2 chairs. The house was in great condition and we had no problems. The one thing that was a nuisance were the kitchen chairs being a pain to get in and out. The outside shower was nice as well, as were the board games. Overall, this is an A+ rental & we will be renting again.
Recommended for:Girls getaway, families with young children, families with teenagers.

Our family (2 adults, an 8-year-old, and 2 elderly grandparents) stayed here in June 2010. We had a wonderful time. The home is very clean and well-maintained. The kitchen supplies provided (pots, pans, etc) were fairly comprehensive. The shower house and hose outside were very handy for cleaning off sand. The washer and dryer are both large- capacity, which we appreciated. All three bedrooms were good-sized with adequate storage/closet space. The best feature was definitely the beach supplies provided - bicycles, cart, chairs, umbrella, sand toys, boogie board, kayak - we used them all! The bicycles make the trip to the beach more accessible - about a 5-minute ride - as parking at the beach is hard to come by. You do have to cross a major road, but there is a pedestrian crossing. The neighborhood was very quiet. The grandparents particularly enjoyed sitting on the deck. The home is close to many restaurants and attractions but not within walking distance. Since we enjoyed biking/walking, we thought being a little removed from the beach made the home more quiet and peaceful. We would recommend this place to anyone seeking a clean, quiet, home-like setting.
Owner response:Sun Dreams is within walking distance to Henry's Restaurant, Chilipeppers Restaurant, Daniels Big Eye Seafood, and several others. Hayman Blvd (less than a minute away) provides an abundance of free oceanside parking to a seasonally life-guarded beach. They also have a rinse-off area. There are many beach accesses up and down the beach, but this one, and the one at Stop and Shop Deli, are two of the best as far as parking and amenities.
Recommended for:Families with young children, age 55+, families with teenagers.

We stayed at the cottage in May 2010 with our 2.5 year old daughter and had a great time. The house is spacious, clean and brand new. We specifically enjoyed the great deck that has sun almost the entire day. We loved the proximity to the beach (5 minutes by car) and other Outer Banks attractions. The house comes with plenty of beach toys bicycles and an outdoor grill which is very convenient. The only downside we could think of the lack of a wifi internet connection.
Owner response:Clarification: It is a 5-8 minute walk to the Helga Street beach access and it is an under-a-minute drive to oceanside parking on Hayman Blvd. :)

Thank you for offering such a high quality house at an affordable price. We could not have asked for a cleaner, better stocked, or closer location to EVERYTHING than your house. The attention to detail for kitchen needs, down to beach needs was outstanding. We will gladly recommend your house! Thanks for everything, and helping us have a great vacation.

We had a great time in the OBX! Your cottage is absolutely wonderful! Everything is clean, well-organized, and right at your finger tips! We found everything that we needed and then some....skim board, wake boards, surf board, beach chairs, etc.... Thanks for keeping everything so current!

This was our first trip to the Outer Banks and it was really enjoyable thanks to the accommodations. The beach house was absolutely perfect and in brand new condition. There is nothing negative that can be said about this property. For anyone looking for a centrally located house this one is it. I'm definitely going to look for this one when I visit again. Thanks so much for the use of your house!
