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.

About the host

Hosted by Vicki Callahan

Host profile image
Our dream to own a home on OBX became a reality in 2020 when we purchased Golden Dunes, formerly Windancer. We used a property management company for the 2021 season, but decided to self manage beginning with the 2022 season, as I have recently retired and have the time and desire to put into self managing. I live near Annapolis, Maryland with my husband, daughter and 3 golden retrievers. I plan to begin breeding my goldens in 2023, another long time dream of mine. You may have guessed, the name Golden Dunes it a bit of a play on words. I look forward to sharing our home with you and hope that you and your dogs find Corolla to be as magical as we do.

Why they chose this property

Golden Dunes is a cozy home suited well for small families who do not need 5+ bedrooms but you still have all the amenities to have a fabulous time. The hot tub and pool are great to have a relax after a day of siteseeing or hanging on the beach.

What makes this property unique

Golden Dunes offers morning sunrise and evening sunset views from the home or a short walk away for you to enjoy. The home is set up to be very welcoming to those who want to travel with their dogs, as well. Providing gates, crates and an outdoor kennel help you and your dog enjoy your vacation.
