Marina
Our award-winning, 28 acre inland basin marina on the Intracoastal Waterway has over 400 slips for power boats and sailboats alike. Right up the coast from Oriental, North Carolina, the River Dunes marina offers year-round boating, floating docks, and outstanding onshore amenities. The protected entrance channel opens into Broad Creek, a natural deep-water creek just off the ICW and Neuse River.

Kayaks & Paddle Boards
Available for Harbor Club members and overnight guests, River Dunes has a selection of kayaks and paddle boards to spend time on the water without a boat. They make the perfect morning or afternoon activity for your family and friends when you stay at River Dunes. Stay in the calming waters of Grace Harbor or venture out to the ICW for more open waters and views of nearby shorelines.

Swimming Pool & Hot Tubs
The swimming pool and hot tubs overlooking Grace Harbor are open to members and overnight guests. Spend time in the water or lounging on a chair while watching the boats sail in and out of the channel that leads out to the Intracoastal Waterway. Enjoy a poolside cocktail, beverage, or snack from the cabana bar during select hours. The cabanas along the side of the pool offer the perfect amount of shade to get out of the heat. If you’d rather, grab a reclining chair across the way to soak up the sun.
