Pleasant Trip to Kure Beach
Very nice quiet beach with few people this time of year. The house was perfect for us, a retired couple with a small dog. The host was very accommodating and a good communicator. We loved sitting out on the deck to enjoy the waves. The back stairs had an easy-to-use dog gate.

Our visit to this property was a perfect get away. Dreamer’s Den is exceptional and LaNette is the perfect hostess. The property was just right for four adults and four legged friends. Well stocked with all the essentials. The bedrooms and bathrooms are roomy and nicely decorated. The deck is great for relaxing, ocean views, sunrises, naps, and puppies. We plan to return and highly recommend Dreamer’s Den.

Attention to detail
The Host/Owner did an incredible job of providing everything we needed for our week at the beach. There were extra paper products, clean linens, towels, bath cloths, and many cooking condiments. The place was impeccably clean, and the location was ideal. The host recommended an excellent fresh seafood restaurant. We had an outstanding experience.

Fantastic location and lovely cottage
Dreamer's Den has everything you need to have a wonderful time at the beach. Its location is fantastic, right on the water and minutes from the restaurants and shops in Kure and Carolina beaches. I stayed with my older parents, my husband and our little dog and we all felt so welcome. I love that there are two king bedrooms with comfortable mattresses, so no one had to climb up to a bunk bed or sleep on the couch. The host, LaNette lives right downstairs, so she's available if you need anything. But you won't because she has thought of everything. We would definitely stay here again.

A Dream
Our vacation was absolutely wonderful!! The host was very accommodating and friendly. We have been to Kure many times but first time taking the grandchildren and the Dreamers Den didn't disappoint 🙂⛱️
The most strenuous thing we did was carry chairs to beach, truly relaxing time.

Great beach house!
Really enjoyed Dreamer's Den. Host has everything you need there and more. Direct access to beach via boardwalk. Used propane grill for outdoor cooking and ate on back deck. Outdoor shower for use after ocean swims a nice feature. Very comfortable accommodations, including for our small dog. We would definitely go back.

Perfect Beach Cottage
The house was ready for check-in before we arrived. It went smoothly and easily. The house was immaculate, updated, and nicely decorated! The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. We loved that the deck had plenty of seating, and a wonderful view of the ocean. There was a gate to keep our pups safely on the deck while we were out there. Beach access was easy—the path was right off of our deck and a very short walk to the ocean! Restaurants and the pier were not
far walk to walk to—about 1/2 mile with sidewalks the whole way on the street side. The Hostess was extremely kind and easy to work with. We would love to stay here again the next time we come to the beach!

The location was ideal - just over 1/2 mile from Kure Beach pier. The beach itself was not crowded since the closest public access was a few houses down. The home itself was clean, comfortable and just as described. I definitely recommend!

Great Location and Host
Host stayed in touch with us. House was as advertised. Only negative is whenever the lower level cooks the smell comes into the upper rented area. We were greeted with what we believe to be fish fry. The smell was very strong. We had to open all windows and doors and we purchased a candle to burn in case we needed but we didn’t use. All other meals cooked below were manageable but the fish wasn’t a good first impression.
