I think I may have found a cause/solution. I had the same issue followed by regular ctd which I attributed to save bloating and corruption so installed the save hotkey mod to avoid overwriting saves files. This issue started again on my current playthrough, so I went back to the last save when I could sleep without CTD and started testing to see where it became corrupted. It seems that as soon as the Dawnguard quest starts so do the ctd, I tested this successfully a few times to be sure that it was the quest. I then tried to start the quest by console command on the last save I was able to sleep but the quest didn't start at stage 5 and i was still able to sleep. So I went to the nearest town in order to receive the quest from a guard (as I was previously doing during testing) and ctd again. I repeated but then I checked to see what stage the quest was and even though the quest had started and should be at stage 5 it remained at 0. So I set the quest stage to 5 and I was suddenly able to sleep without ctd. I'm not sure whether the cause is a conflict with a mod or whether my game will remain stable as I haven't continued to play, but I'm fairly certain that I've found the cause.

Thanks for the info. I suspected as much, but I really have no idea what's causing it since it seems to be random. Although it happens more frequently when fast traveling or autosaving.

After I hit lv 20 this has been happening in regular intervals, some are so bad that I actually had to start from a previous save because I couldn't take a step without teleporting to Vault 87. Basically one minute i'm shooting up baddies and the next is coc to vault 87. BTW, don't know if this is related but Fawkes appeared on Point Lookout. He spontaneously appears out of nowhere every once in a while.
