“Perfect beach getaway” We had such a wonderful weekend staying at B's dream. The house was decorated beautifully, easy to navigate, pretty & safe neighborhood, easy beach access, updated appliances & tvs, harris teeter close by, close to restaurants/shopping/golf but more private & less crowded than nags head or kitty hawk. The beach was gorgeous. It was truly the best beach weekend we have had in a long time and we would love to come back again in the future. Thank you for a wonderful weekend!

“Our best vacation yet!” The pics of the house on the internet does not do it justice! We were pleasantly surprised when we arrived at what a beautiful home this was. Location to the beach with beach walkway at the end of the driveway was wonderful! Great area for my children to ride bikes with no worries of traffic. Having the use of the pool in the afternoon after a long day at he beach was very relaxing. Location to shops and eateries was within minutes. Overall I would highly recommend 1 For Shore for your next family vacation!

“Go buckeyes!!” Everything was Great! My cousins and I stayed for a week at this beach house. The place was clean. The rooms were convenient. Everyone had their own space, but still had a common room to relax and have fun together. The pool was fabulous and the pool was cleaned every two days. The beach access was right across the street. Could not of had a better time staying at this house. My only complaint was the front door was hard to lock and unlock. We barely locked it because we were afraid of getting locked out. I stayed in an upstairs room, but heard complaints that the downstairs beds were very uncomfortable, might be time to replace those. They still got the job done and everyone had a good time. Kudos to the staff!!! They were very helpful. We showed up 2 hours early in hopes that our place was cleaned so we could watch the Buckeyes. It wasn't, but the manager came out right when we were leaving and told us without a doubt it would be in time. They did not disappoint. Loved this house and the vacation. Thanks for a lovely week!

“All that we expected” Excellent accomodations as described online.Kitchen was the most well equipped we have ever stayed in.Plenty of good pots pans plates glasses cups bowls/everything to accomodate large groups including a super large dining table as well as a bar with stools.Two diswashers guaranteed fast cleanup.Stocked spice Cabinet. Short walk to the beach.The beach closet contained everything needed.Umbrellas several chairs beach toys floats buggie boards,some fishing items,buckets large and small shovles and more.A beach cart was there to transport items.The bedrooms were large and spacious and there were plenty of bathrooms for everyone.Tv's were in each bedroom as well as the game room (w/Pool Table) and the living room on the top level as well as DVD players and WiFi. The pool was a favorite gathering spot as was the hottub for adults and kids. Outside showers were available to rinse the sand off after the beach trip.Shelves full of books and some Dvds were there also. The community pool and Tennis courts were close and in excellent condition. Shopping locations were close by for groceries and other stuff.The only problem we had was the ice dispenser on the frig was broken.The ice maker worked well and we had plenty of ice and no probem opening the door to get it.It just didn't dispense. Maintenance checked it and were working to get it repaired. A child gate was at the stairs to prevent little ones from tumbling.The 4 digit combination lock on the second floor door worked well with no keys to keep up with. The washer/dryer was used extensively and functioned perfectly.We had 13 from seniors to a 6 month old and had empty bunk beds.Handicapped will have a problem with the stairs and the master bedroom and kitchen/dinning area are on the top floor with no elevator.Heavy auto traffic arriving and departing July 4th week.Check with Outer Banks Blue for best arrival time with least stop and go traffic. We understand this is normal most of the year. Our week was enjoyed by all.

“Great family home” We had a great week at Oasis in late June. We loved the private pool, and it also had plenty Of pool and beach toys. The kitchen was fully Stocked with everything we needed. The house Is in a private neighborhood, and it was easy and safe to walk up the street to the beach. We had people ranging in age from 3 weeks To 76 with us, and this house fit all our needs. I would stay here again.

“Our family had a wonderful time at Ivey's Lair” We had eigt adults and eight children from 3 months to eighteen years old. There was never a boring moment and everyone had plenty of room in the house. Whad a week that was in the high 90s, but we loved every minute of it. The 4th of July parade went right by the house, fireworks went off on the beach that were pretty prfessional for the area's private viewing and everyone did as they pleased during the day ( pool, beach, town, pool table, volleyball, or just relaxed) and we all had dinner together or went out. When we go to the house there were a few minor things that had to be taken care of: the gas grill was not there, the outside pool lights were not working, and some inside lights did not work. We called and everything was taken care within two days. The only thing that needs to be address are the two dishwashers. They do not clean the dishes. We wound up doing them by hand. I am not sure if the water is not hot enough for the machines or what. We did not report it, but they now know and I am sure it will be fixed. We can't wait to go back!!!

“Our stay allowed us to create alot of wonderful memories!” Overall, the stay was wonderful! The size of the home was more than accomodating and it was nice to have so many options to sleep! The ease of booking and check in was 5 star! The only down side to this vacation was that the home was not extremely clean and there was an alarm going off in the backyard that was pretty loud. We found a couple of things that may have been left by the cleaning company, but were a bit unsettling. There was a surgeons mask left in one room and insulin needles in another. Also, there was an alarm that went off early one morning in the back yard that was flashing and had a loud beeping noise. We could not turn it off and because it was New Year's day there was no one available to come out and fix the situation. As mentioned before, these are all things that are minor and we had a wonderful vacation creating memories! We would stay in this house again and would recommend this to a friend.

“A well-appointed property” The house was perfect for the two of us, plus the adult couple who visited us for part of our stay. The bedrooms were comfortable, the kitchen was clean and well equipped, the living room had all the modern necessities. We loved the in-ground pool, the hot tub, the bicycles, the basketball goal and the beach cart. If we could make one improvement, it would be a larger deck since this one was cut in half by the screened-in porch. But that's a small shortcoming in what is otherwise a superb beach retreat.

“Very nice property and a good value for the area” We had 18 people at the house and there was plenty of everything: space, seating, recreation. Although, not on the beach, the walk to the beach was short, straight walk to the walkway. The dunes in this area are quite high, and there are quite a few steps to tackle. Nice beach. Would definetly recommend the Tropical Dream. The service from the rental company, Outerbanks Blue was great

“Fantastic home!” Very well-appointed home - nicely decorated and many amenities (kitchen equipment, books, beach toys, chairs, etc.) Perfect floor plan for our group of seven; the layout worked very well for our family of five on the middle floor (in three bedrooms) and the two grandparents upstairs off the main living area. The location was fantastic - very short walk to the beach in one direction and the pool in the other. Also, the Crown Point subdivision is situated close enough to TimBuck II that walking there is also very feasible.

“Great Experience!!!” Our family of 6 stayed at Judge's Chambers over the 4th of July week this year. The house was spacious and had a huge, beautiful pool. The location was great - as close to the beach as you can get without renting a house on it. Extra amenities - such as wireless internet and a gas grill - were much appreciated and utilized! Outer Banks Blue had great customer service. Everything was easy and conducted over the phone and internet. Loved the keyless entry and the linens included. On the one occasion that we had to contact them during our trip, they returned our call promptly and happily answered our question. We would highly recommend both Judge's Chambers and Outer Banks Blue to anyone looking for a great Outer Banks vacation!!

“Overall Impressed” We have rented this property before, fine walk to the beach! private pool is the best! one small suggestion, because it is a pet friendly home, i would suggest to steam clean the carpet prior to each guest, due to some guests having pet allergies.

“We had an excellent vacation in a beautiful home.” Sea Glass is an absolutely beautiful house. Our family of four shared the house with our friends, a family of three and we had tons of space! The house was spotless upon arrival, had everything we needed. The pictures online are extremely accurate. The pool area is really nice, and the gate around the entire area made us feel very comfortable having 3 small children with us. We loved that it is a carpet free house too, so that it was very easy to clean water and sand. The house is one blocks from the beach, and a 3 minute drive into town, on a very nice block. There is no need to bring any pool toys, beach toys, beach chairs or bikes- they are all provided for you. The only "negative" about the house is that the kitchen is located on the top floor (3 flights of stairs) which makes it a little difficult when you are hanging out by the pool and the kids want something to drink or eat. We would have to get the kids out of the pool, outside of the gated area, and then treck up 3 flights of stairs to the kitchen. I would suggest to the owners that they put a small fridge and counter on the main floor just to keep some snacks and drinks for these situations. However, this is my only suggestion on how to make this house any better. It truly is beautiful, and we will definitely be booking it again on our next vacation to Duck.
