Wonderful vacation at Serene Dream!

My family has stayed at Serene Dream multiple times, the home, property, location, and owner engagement never disappoints! Very close access to the beach w/private beach parking. Secluded away on a beautiful lot on the canal. Fishing, kayaking, and swimming in the private pool all on the property makes this home one of the best vacation destinations.

Great house for handicapped travelers which is hard to find. On top of that the pool is great and private, and the house, while in a community/cul de sac, feels so private and isolated. The large back yard is great for the doggies to run. LOVED that each bedroom had its own private bathroom. This is a fantastic property. The teens liked that there were lots of restaurants, shopping, walmart, grocery stores all 1 mile away from the house. Thank you!

October friends getaway

The home is in a beautiful location in a quiet and peaceful neighborhood. The home is extremely well appointed- the kitchen has a great supply of pots, pans, dishes & anything we needed. The owners were responsive and communicated clearly. It was a wonderful relaxing get-away week for our group of 5 friends & my mini Aussie.

Wonderful Getaway

Serene Dream was a perfect location to relax and enjoy the Outer Banks. The house had everything we needed, was in a quiet, relaxing neighborhood with nice canal views, and just minutes from the beach. We couldn’t have asked for a more gracious and informative host, either.

Family Vacation

House, amenities and grounds were all excellent. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. There was always something to do both inside and outside. Had a blast discovering what the OBX are about from the historic end to the beach end. Comforting knowing you had the house to come back to and continue the day with fishing, crabbing or inside game room. The house was stocked with anything and everything you could possibly need. The hosts were very friendly and responsive when needed. All and all a great time. Peaceful and relaxing

Early Thanksgiving

Our family consisted of nine - one 4 year old great-granddaughter; two grandsons and their wives; our daughter and her husband; and ourselves (seniors). Ron, the owner, was exceptional to work with... kind, generous, helpful, answered all questions, and most of all, a very caring man. It had been quite a few years since we'd been to OBX so this visit/stay was special. And the weather for this time of year was perfect! I highly recommend this property for family and friends to gather for any occasion... wonderful location!

"Best. Trip. Ever! A Fun and Fabulous Getaway!"

Initially, we were a bit nervous about not being Oceanside, but we quickly realized it was the perfect mix of ocean and sound waters! This place has everything you could ever dream of—an amazing kitchen, spacious and comfy bedrooms, a fun game room, and an incredible outdoor living space! Everything, from the pool to the hot tub to the living spaces, was sparkling clean. The canal location was a bonus for fishing, crabbing, and kayaking. There’s something for everyone to enjoy! The ocean is just a hop, skip, and jump away! We loved the privacy and seclusion of this spot. A definite 10/10 from the Aldrich family! Ron and Marianne are the sweetest and super responsive! We’ve been coming to OBX for years, and this house is hands down our favorite. We can’t wait to book again!

Wonderful, relaxing vacation at Serene Dream

We had a wonderful vacation at Serene Dream with our family - kids and grandchildren. The grandchildren were ages 9-19. The house was great. It was a lovely home and had something for everyone from the well appointed kitchen, to the game room for the kids, to the pool for all. The parking passes to the private parking for those who wanted to go to the beach were a life saver to keep from having to hunt for and pay for parking. A couple of the older kids rode bikes one day that were there in the garage. We cooked on the grill every day. The kids and adults alike enjoyed the fishing and crabbing from the backyard. You really didn't have to leave the house if you didn't want, but if you did, everything was right there nearby and easy to get to. However, you would never know it by the way the house was tucked away in the cul-de-sac and trees on the water and was so peaceful. The owners were so nice and easy to get along with. We will definitely plan on staying here again.

Beautiful, well kept house. Online listing is very accurate, house is even better in person.

Great house in quite, tree lined, older neighborhood. Listing is very accurate- house is even better in person. Owner takes great care in this property, and it shows. Beautifully decorated. Owner is friendly and extremely quick to answer any questions or concerns you may have and follows up to make sure your needs are met. House layout is very accommodating for people with different needs. The grounds are well kept and beautiful, right on the canal. We even went crabbing from the backyard. If you have a kayak, you could launch it from the backyard. The owner has stocked the house with everything you could possibly need while on vacation. You will only need to bring food. Even left us some goodies upon checking in. We didn’t have any rainy days but if you do - there is an entire game room and a ping pong table and basketball shooting game in the garage. Also various games and puzzles in the closets. Check in is with a key code - so no going to an office and waiting in line. A hurricane had hit the area 2 weeks before our stay. The neighbors trees had come down hitting the pool area fence and in front of the house. The owner was quick to get it repaired so the pool area was open and the yard was free of debris. Next time we’re in OBX - this is where we will stay.

Southern Shore Vacation

I spoke to Ron prior to leaving for our vacation to his property. He never mentioned anything about the air conditioning unit not working properly on the second floor. He called to tell me there was a gift certificate for cookies and we would have to pay a few dollars because they increased their prices. His daughter was at the house and she used one and had to pay. He was upset that the cookie company was charging us. He should have informed us about the air conditioner when he called. As posted in the previous review on September 6,2023, the air conditioning was not functioning on the second floor. We arrived on September 9, and still not working. Ron offered to reimburse us for fans and inflatable mattresses. There were 3 fans at the house when we arrived. His daughter was there the week before we arrived. The nighttime temperatures were cooler than our week. The upstairs nighttime temperature was 83. We carried mattresses downstairs so everyone could sleep where it was comfortable. Our granddaughter slept in the primary closet. Our son slept in the dining room. It is a beautiful home at a great location. We enjoyed the pool and the beach not far from the homeWe had a wonderful time and made the best of the situation. Ron did refund us an additional $100.00 stating it was what he would have reimbursed us for an inflatable mattress. We paid for five bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms and a huge game room. We could not use two bedrooms, one bathroom and the game room.

Quiet Comfort!

My family absolutely loves this place. It is in a quiet neighborhood that is just minutes away from anything you could want to do at the beach. This location offers the quiet comfort that I need to recharge my batteries and is close enough for the rest of the family that wants to be on the go. Ron is the best host and will address any need asap. He will even call to check on you during your stay and tell you to call him if you need anything at all. Doesn't get any better than this in my opinion.

Why they chose this property

My family has been coming to the Outer Banks for almost 25 years. We fell in love with this wonderful beach area the first time we stayed back in 1987. We returned 3 weeks after our first trip to visit again. We built our home because the area it is located is so peaceful and serene. Each day when the sun goes down you hear the birds finishing their chirpings and the crickets coming to life. It is truly a calming place to come and relax away from your hectic everyday life. We wouldn't give it up for anything.

What makes this property unique

You can walk out the back door and go fishing, crabbing and kayaking. If you are unlucky and have a rainy day there is a game room with Air Hockey, Foosball and a large Poker Table. The game room also includes a dry bar with a refrigerator, microwave,
blender and flat screen TV. If the game room is not for you a Movie Library with over 300 films and a new Ping Pong Table are available. There are also over 75 Paperback Books available for you reading pleasure. If you are not done reading when your trip is over please take the book with you. Almost anything you might need is less than a mile away with 2 big Grocery Stores, Seafood Store, 2 Chinese take Outs, Subway, Deli, Pizza, Walmart, an ABC Liquor Store and 6 Banks.
And on those sunny days you can take a quick few minute ride to a our Private Beaches, jump into the pool (open May to October) or play a pickup game of Basketball right out the side door. At night, if feeling a little achy from your fun filled day you can take a nice dip in the Hot Tub on the back deck or go night swimming in the solar heated pool.
