***Premier Host on Vrbo** book with confidence!
This listing is to rent the 3 bedroom 2 bath Schooner cottage, and the 2 bedroom, 1 bath Whoop-Ti-Do cottage at the Duneview Resort.

The water in front of the Duneview resort has a shallow sandy bottom extending knee-deep for 200 feet – perfect for little ones to swim and play. There are breathtaking views of both the sunrise and sunset right from your own private beach..

Fantastic Family Vacation

The location couldn't be better! We enjoyed the fireworks on the dunes for on the 4th. Beds were comfortable, we enjoyed the water, sand, sun, and just being together. The owner is quick to respond to any questions and take care of any issue. We definitely recommend this vacation rental.
