Beautiful location with great pool

The house is very well stocked with all of the kitchen needs and toiletry items. Pool towels were provided which was a plus for us along with bikes and pool/beach items. The house needs a little maintenance and a deep clean. Our host was very responsive to our needs. Atlantic Beach was a great spot for our family.

Beautiful house with everything you need. Very comfortable furniture and beds. Master suite is a dream. Pool is amazing! It would be great if there were blinds/curtains on the front windows in the living area to block the afternoon sun and the street light at night. Also, it is a little difficult to cross the main road to walk to the beach.

Perfect for any Beach Getaway!

If you're looking for a place to stay in Atlantic Beach, look no further. The property is beautiful, easily accessible, and close to anything you'd want to do in town. The house is perfect for any group - family with kids or a group of adults looking to get together - and offers amenities to suit any need. The check in/check out process was very smooth and the owners/property managers were quick to respond to questions. Would definitely stay here again!

We had an awesome time at this beautiful property! The layout was comfy and functional for extended family socializing, the pool and BBQ were awesome, and there were a lot of helpful things at the rental (kitchen, pool, beach, and games) to make trip planning easy. Stacy was quickly responsive to questions and was able to inform me asap that I had left my AirPods in a drawer before we left the area. Thank you for providing a great place to stay!

Very special beach vacation rental

My family and I had the best long weekend at Stacy’s beach house celebrating my mom’s birthday. The house has everything you need from cooking essentials to pool floaties to beach chairs and all accommodations were comfy and clean! Having the option of a private pool or the beach really spoiled us. Stacy was so proactive in her communications and also the most hospitable host. Only regret was not booking our stay longer!

Great Rental Home!

Big Dream Getaway was the perfect beach rental for our group of 12! We were here for a destination wedding in Beaufort and the location was so convenient. Stacy was an amazing host - incredibly responsive and helpful from start to finish. The house is beautifully decorated, and had ample room for our three families. The pool was great, and we enjoyed the large porches for morning coffee chats and evening beverages. Stacy added many thoughtful touches throughout, including greenery in vases that added a fresh, welcoming feel to the home. The kitchen and bathrooms were fully stocked above expectations. Easy walk to the beach and plenty of backpack chairs, bikes, carts, and rolling coolers provided. We will return!

Spring break…

We had an amazing time in Atlantic Beach! The house was very clean and fully stocked. It’s such a pleasant surprise when all of the little things are supplied - hand soap, shampoo, laundry detergent, dishwasher pods, aluminum foil, ziploc bags, spices, etc etc. The house was in a great location, we walked 1/2 mile to the Boba shop everyday! The home had a ton of beach supplies and there were over a dozen bikes in the garage. Kids were in the heated pool everyday after spending time at the beach. It really was a great trip! Thanks Stacy.
