Grandview Nature Preserve is open to the public free and forms the northeast corner of the city of Hampton.

Cozy spot with a beautiful view
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.

Terrible
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.

Cozy family gathering
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!

Good trip
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.
