This house was perfect! Very comfortable and clean.Great location. The owners keep everything from the kitchen utensils to the beach toys very well stocked.We had a fantastic stay , just wish it was longer. Will definitely be wanting to rent again. Thank you very much
A gem on the coast. A short walk to the water and great coast views. A quiet neighborhood as well. Host is extremely responsive to any question. The house is well stocked with beach toys and bikes for kids in the garage. Wouldn’t hesitate to rent this place again
This house really satisfied my desire to feel like I was right on the beach. The windows are large and look out over the water. It was rainy and cold outside, but the cozy fireplace provided warmth and enhanced the atmosphere inside. Perfectly set up for young children with toys and beds. My 31/2 year old granddaughter loved the bunk room! The adults enjoyed very comfortable sleeping quarters, too!
We stayed for Christmas for 5 days and it was perfect! We loved going in the hot tub at night and enjoying the stars. The garage is full of kids bikes and beach toys, a wagon, double stroller. The views were incredible. Caught crab on the beach at Lawsons. Not even 5 minute walk to Dillon beach. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking meals. The house has a wonderful energy. The house is just as described. We enjoyed games by the fireplace. We would definitely book again if staying in the area.

We loved our stay at Duncan Dunes! Despite the fog and wind outside, we enjoyed this lovely home so much. Everything was clean, comfortable and in great condition. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.
This home was very comfortable and close to places where we wanted to hike. The view of the ocean was spectacular!

Thank you very much for your gracious review. We are delighted to hear that you found the home comfortable and appreciated its proximity to hiking areas. It is wonderful to know that the ocean view contributed positively to your experience. We would be honored to host you again in the future.
Everything about our stay was excellent! Kitchen is well appointed, bedrooms had very nice linens and mattresses, views are incredible. Our grandchildren were delighted to find toys, games and boogie boards for the beach and even bikes! We will book again
We have stayed at other homes at Dillons and twice now Duncan's Dunes and probably will again mainly because of the easy walk to the beach.

We really enjoyed the place. Used the hot tub for getting warm after a cold walk on the beach. Loved the location and all the beds were super comfortable. The little room with the bunk beds is tiny, but our 17 year old had a great night's sleep there.

We had a family “girls” trip to Dillon Beach for 3 days! There were 7 of us aged 83-1 years old. The house was great for the 7 of us. Plenty of space and a short walk to the beach. I plan to book more trips to this house. Thank you!!

This is by far the best beach house we have rented (we rent various houses in the beach for long weekends 2-3 times a year) family friendly but nice, well laid out and well stocked. Comfortable beds and a short walk to a perfect beach
