River Dunes

Oriental, North Carolina




River Dunes is the perfect launching point for unparalleled adventures on the water. Sailing under a gentle breeze on the fabled Neuse River, cruising the destinations along the Intracoastal Waterway, or trolling for trophy billfish - all of these activities and more are only moments away when you call River Dunes home.

Located near Oriental, NC, the heart of River Dunes is the world-class 400 slip inland basin marina, Grace Harbor. Here residents can enjoy fine and casual dining, chandlery, swimming pool, spas, cabanas and seven fireplaces found at the River Dunes Harbor Club. Boaters will appreciate the luxury shower and laundry facilities found at The Landing, as well as the high-speed fueling dock. And for overnight accommodations, there’s no better place to make yourself at home than inside one of the conveniently located harbor side guest cottages.

With a carefully designed, award-winning land plan, River Dunes is dedicated to preserving and protecting the beauty and natural resources of a coastal setting while creating homes and amenities that will enhance the lives of residents and their families for generations to come.

Location, Location:
With 14 miles of pristine natural shoreline on Pamlico Sound that stretches 24 nautical miles across to the celebrated beaches of the Outer Banks and Gulf Stream waters beyond, River Dunes is in a perfect location to explore the coastal beauty of North Carolina. Miles of paddling and hiking trails also wind through a 238-acre conservation preserve and offer nature lovers abundant opportunities to observe the region’s native flora and fauna.

Tie Up to the Dock:
Grace Harbor, a world-class 28 acre 400 slip inland basin marina with state-of-the-art floating dock system serves at the centerpiece of the Harbor Village that includes River Dunes Harbor Club and The Landing.

A Healthy, Happy You:
Overlooking the harbor, a spa/wellness center will offer programs to nourish the mind, body and spirit of guests and residents.

Just Paddling About:
If you want to trade in your outboard motor for a paddle, The Canoe Club and Adventure Lodge will feature a soft launch site for kayaks and canoes and will also host activities from fly-fishing to bird watching or watercolor painting.

A Style All Its Own:
A great deal of thought has gone into the architectural style of the homes and amenities in the community, drawing from the rich heritage of boating and the historic maritime village. Materials and color palettes are classic and authentic to traditional coastal building styles, yet state-of-the-art in comfort, convenience, and services.
