About this property
Family and Pet Friendly, steps from the beach
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: Although the house has more than one floor, the rental is the first floor only. 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” apartment. 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 the main house and the little apartment on the 3rd floor - because there's no second floor! So there's lots of privacy - we won't hear you, and you won't hear us.

About the area
Sunset Beach
Located in Sunset Beach, this holiday home is near the beach. While the natural beauty of Ocean Isle Beach and Holden Beach can be enjoyed by anyone, those looking for an activity can explore Cherry Grove Pier.
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 nearby.

About the host
Hosted by Rosie and Yitzy

We're Yitzy and Rosie. We've just fulfilled our fantasy of moving to Sunset Beach full-time! Moved here in January of 2021, and are still amazed every day that we get to live in such a beautiful place.
Why they chose this property
We want to be able to rent out the house AND still be here in the summer so we can enjoy the beach. This house allows us to do that, because it has a separate apartment on the roof. So we can have guests downstairs (you!) and still be in our wonderful house.
