About the host

Hosted by Rose Smith

Host profile image
Ever since reading Nicholas Sparks books years ago, I dreamed of owning a beach house in the Outer Banks. There was always something magical about the quiet coastal towns, the slower pace, the salty air, and the feeling of escaping real life for a while.

When we found Carolina Dream on Hatteras Island, it felt exactly like the cozy OBX getaway we had always imagined with peaceful mornings, long beach days, sunset skies, and evenings spent relaxing on the porch after the beach.

We created Carolina Dream to feel warm, welcoming, comfortable & the kind of place where you can truly unplug, recharge, and make memories with the people you love.

Whether you’re here for beach days, fishing, family time, or simply a quiet escape by the ocean, we hope you fall in love with the Outer Banks the same way we did.

Why they chose this property

We chose this neighborhood because it perfectly captures the peaceful, laid-back charm that makes Hatteras Island so special. We loved being able to walk to the beach, local shops, and restaurants while still being tucked away on a quiet street. The Tri-Villages area offers the perfect mix of relaxation, beautiful beaches, small-town coastal charm, and easy access to everything we love about the Outer Banks.

What makes this property unique

Carolina Dream is a cozy, custom-built Hatteras Island beach cottage inspired by the peaceful coastal charm that instantly makes you feel right at home. Tucked away on a quiet street in the heart of the Tri-Villages, guests can walk to the beach, local market, and nearby eateries while still enjoying a relaxing, tucked away feel. With private beach access nearby, screened porch living, soaking tubs, handcrafted details, and warm coastal character throughout, Carolina Dream offers the perfect blend of classic Outer Banks charm and modern comfort.
