Beautiful sunsets from the deck with a short walk to the beach. Have been coming to Grayton for over 30 years, have stayed a variety of places in town. Still love it!

Amazing!

We love staying in Grayton Beach and this house was perfect. Appointed beautifully and right near the beach path which is great on a hot day lugging all your things. Communication was stellar through the whole process too. Our favorite part was sunsets on the deck…no need to rush anywhere to catch it!

We love Grayton Beach, best home base on 30A!

What a great location next to the dunes and just a short walk to the beach... Dune Watch is super comfortable, clean and the screen porch is a great place to hang out... the dune and ocean views are better than expected. The kitchen (appliances/cooking gear) is below average but we made it work...

Amazing Location

We loved staying at this property. The location was perfect. Very close to the beach, so easy with kids. The property was overall very clean. There was definitely some wear and tear that could use some attention. The living room rug was quite stained. I feel like they shouldn’t have a rug there at all do to the sand/dirt that is tracked in. We would stay here again. We rented a Golfcart for the week to visit the other surrounding areas, like Seaside.

Peaceful

The view is phenomenal and why I chose Dune Watch. Bring binoculars in case there’s wildlife moving through the dunes. The furniture is wonderful for lounging in front of the huge tv and the master bed is one of the most comfortable I’ve ever slept in which was a delightful surprise. Having a gear credit was a fun perk. There’s a Little Free Library at the beach entrance in case you forget your book, and plenty of games and puzzles in the tv console cabinet. The Wanderlust jigsaw is mine and I had a delightful time putting it together on the kitchen counter one morning with a mug of coffee and watching the sunrise over the dunes. Treasured memory.
