The house was very nice, we loved that it was on the water with such a beautiful view. The only downside was we couldn't swim there.

We picked this location given friends live nearby, but it exceeded expectations. Beautiful view, incredible sunrise, and the kids loved the fireplace.
Hadn't realized the kids bunk room doesn't have a door to close, but luckily noise wasn't a problem.

The house was well taken care of and the view is beautiful, my family had an amazing time and our dog really enjoyed the backyard. The hosts were quick and efficient when we had questions about the house and the house is close to many attractions like Bush Garden. Overall we had an amazing time and would definitely come back.

We loved our stay at Aviator’s Dream! My husband and I enjoyed a weekend with our daughter and her husband as well as our other daughter. The house was so cute and cozy. The backyard was perfect for enjoying the sunny weather. We loved being so close to the water. Our dog enjoyed the water as well! We walked in the Grandview Nature Preserve and also visited Buckroe Beach. Both were great beach walks. Thank you for a lovely stay!

No lighting outside throughout the entire house. Outside needs major upgrades. Very dangerous trying to use your cell phone light to see with only one light by the front door in and wooded area. The outside has no driveway just rocks and gravel. This was not disclosed prior to booking. Also the beds/sofa was extremely hard. Stay away from this property.

We enjoyed our stay at this quaint and stylish little getaway. It is equipped the basic essentials and very clean. It’s nice to have some serenity near the water but be only 15 minutes away from shopping and restaurants.

My family was in hampton to visit family who live there, and one in Navy. We liked the house, beds were comfy, kitchen great, but best part was location on the water.
