FO13 Dreamcatcher

This house was great! The location is the best! It is only 2 houses away from beach access and the entire north view is a natural area overlooking the ocean. It is on the northernmost street of a handful of streets that make up a residential area. So, as you come on to the beach, to the south there are other houses and people. But to the north there is nothing but natural dunes and beauty! There is a very small airport in that area to the north of the house and over the week we saw about 5 small jets come and go. Not bothersome at all! Very interesting actually. Bedrooms were good-sized and bathrooms nice. They had one set of towels (2 bath, 2 hand, 1 face) per person which was adequate. They are typical, white hotel towels. The quality could be improved upon but they did the job. Decks were nice and hot tub was awesome! Because of that natural area to the north, you have a real sense of privacy when on the decks. There's also a handy faucet on the lowest level, beside the stairs, to wash the sand off your feet which is nice. There is an outdoor area for cleaning fish, as well, under the house. They did have 4 beach chairs to use. No umbrella, so bring your own. This is my first time in OBX when I've stayed outside of the Nags Head/Kill Devil Hills area and I will not be heading back there again! For an extra 1.25 hours of drive time over incredible and beautiful scenery I can get to the Frisco/Buxton area and have an entirely different experience than I'd had in visits before. So much natural beauty and quiet beaches. This house will be a favorite of mine to rent for as many years as they rent it!!

Loved the location of this house. Frisco Beach is our favorite place to vacation.

Layout of the bathrooms was horrible. One small jack and jill bath served bedrooms that house five guests. The room with king bed has a bath. The fourth bedroom CAN'T access any bathroom without going through one of the other bedrooms. The kitchen had basic supplies but a colander, ice pick, and champagne flutes would have been nice. There was only one dish towel for the kitchen and no hand towel for the half bath upstairs. The hot tub does not hold the number of persons on the listing. The lift did not work the entire week of our stay which was very disappointing. Carrying everything up two flights to the kitchen wasn't fun. A laundry basket would have been nice.

Good views all around, and watching the planes take off/land was a bonus.

We loved the proximity of this home to the beach and the green space to the immediate north of the property. It's rare to have so much green space next a home in the OBX. It provided for such a distinct vibe as compared to most other locations on the island. The house itself was spacious, clean, and well stocked with kitchen appliances and utensils. The living area furniture was upscale and comfortable. The multiple decks and views were fantastic. Wifi was very good in the home. We would definitely recommend this house and plan to return.

Great, quiet location- short walk to beach with scenic views. Nicely done home with plenty of cozy spaces to relax. Enjoyed the hot tub.
