About this property
The Boathouse at River Dunes, Private Coastal Retreat with Pool & 4 Guest Houses
Welcome to The Boathouse at River Dunes, a private coastal retreat in beautiful Oriental, North Carolina. Designed for relaxing group getaways and unforgettable gatherings, this thoughtfully arranged property offers four separate guest spaces across a charming, landscaped compound.
Guests will enjoy spacious common areas, cozy porches, and multiple kitchens throughout the main house, guest cottage, carriage house, and private suite—ideal for families, wedding weekends, or multi-household retreats.
Relax by the private on-site pool, or take advantage of access to River Dunes' community amenities, which include a second pool, spa, fitness center, tennis and pickleball courts, marina, and scenic walking trails. The marina, general store, and dining options are all within walking distance.
Looking to enhance your stay? Guests often enjoy making dinner reservations at Gretchen’s Bistro, a nearby coastal restaurant known for its seasonal dishes and warm hospitality. For a more exclusive experience, private yacht charters aboard Freedom may be available by request (separate arrangement and fee required).
