Welcome to Grateful Dunes! It’s a second-row house - right across the street from the beach access. It’s laid out with a central open floor plan, so that you can talk with family in the living room while cooking in the kitchen. On each side of the big central room, there’s a suite of 2 bedrooms, connected by a bathroom, perfect for families or friends. We're always improving the house - we recently added a new fridge and microwave, did some painting, and created a shuffleboard court
INDOOR LIVING:
The kitchen is well-stocked because we live here - with good knives and cutting boards, coffee paraphernalia, and fun stuff like a panini maker, a whirly pop (which will forever spoil you for microwave popcorn), and of course a blender and toaster and lots of good pots and pans. And we've installed a new gas range, and a reverse-osmosis water purification system.
We’ve put a lot of thought into making the house family friendly, including:
- a wall of bookshelves, fully stocked with books for adults and kids
- a stereo system and some records and CDs
- lots of games and cards and puzzles and art supplies
- a low cabinet with plastic plates and cups, so the kids can get their own snacks
- a 5-gallon water cooler, so the kids can get their own drinks,
- a tea party set
- a portable crib and high chair
- cleaning supplies stored on a high shelf, out of reach of little ones
- new washer and dryer
Bring your own sheets and towels - or we can recommend a local linen rental service.
OUTDOOR LIVING:
- right across the street from the beach access!
- a big shady porch deck with lots of comfy seating,
- since we’re on Main Street, there’s great people-watching.
- an outdoor shower,
- a picnic table with benches,
- a Weber grill.
- beach chairs, sand toys, boogie boards, skim boards, noodles, inflatables, umbrellas, and a cart to carry it all in,
- shaded shuffleboard court in the carport!
PLEASE NOTE: This house is a top/bottom duplex; the rental is the lower half. We have just fulfilled a lifetime dream of moving to Sunset Beach, and we’re delighted to have found a house that we can share with guests, while we move upstairs to the “crow's nest” level. So if you need help replacing the water cooler bottle, or want a knitting lesson or recommendations for the best fish market or organic farm market, you only have to text us. But don’t worry, even though we’ll be upstairs, there’s a big empty space between your lodgings and our space on the third floor - because there's no second floor! So there's lots of privacy - we won't hear you, and you won't hear us.
Located in Sunset Beach, this vacation home is near the beach. The area's natural beauty can be seen at Ocean Isle Beach and Holden Beach. Ingram Planetarium and Museum of Coastal Carolina are also worth visiting. Kayaking, fishing, and swimming offer great chances to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with hiking/biking trails nearby.
