About this property

Private Pool, Heat Included, Dogs Welcome, Hot Tub, Oceanside, No 4x4 Needed

Golden Dunes ia a Corolla family beach house - 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, private heated pool w/ocean, and lighthouse views

A beautiful & cozy cottage at the end of the Corolla pavement before tires hit the 4x4 beaches. Well-suited for up to two families or as a stress-free couple’s getaway. Pet-friendly.

Location, location, location… you’ll have ocean, lighthouse & gorgeous sunset views from our decks. Beach access is just a quick walk away… about 5 minutes. We have a private pool (heat included in rate, April, May, September, & October) and a hot tub located on the upper deck to enjoy & relax under the stars. Four wheel drive vehicle is NOT required to access the property.

Our community is called The Villages at Ocean Hill and provides oceanfront and sound-side pools, a fitness center, a PICKLEBALL court, playground, basketball, sand volleyball and tennis courts. We are located east of route 12 north, just before the access ramp onto the 4x4 beaches.

Note: Anyone with a 4WD vehicle can drive up the beach. If you’d like to park/tailgate on the beach for
the day, you can purchase weekly passes at the Corolla Visitor Center or online.






For 2025 our private heated pool is open and available from March 27 to November 3. We set temperature at 85° in April, May, September and October. The ambient temperature affects the overall temperature. Pool heat is included for free.

Great place, dog friendly!

Great property and location. The pool and hot tub were great. Also very dog friendly- has 3 different size crates on the property for your dog- also an outdoor area to secure your dog. Dog Emergency kit and clean up supplies all there. Plenty of bathrooms. Lots of outdoor deck areas- deck to see the sunset was nice! Close to the beach, boardwalk area and the beach to drive on to see horses. I highly recommend.

Contentment in Corolla

Everything was perfect! The house was clean and very comfortable. Lots of extra features to make it seem like home! The neighborhood was great for walking my dog and just a short walk to the beach. We fell in love with Corolla! Our host Vicky was extremely kind, caring and responsive. We are very grateful to have been able to share her home
