We’re cruising into the weekend with the hard questions first… the green, the red, or the big blue.

Arrive, unwind, boat, repeat.

There’s a charming 800-square-foot coastal getaway on the market at River Dunes—rarely available because they were thoughtfully designed for easy weekends around the water.

Low-maintenance and just a quick cart ride from the marina, Club, pickleball, fishing lake and pool, 4 Back Cove Circle makes summer feel a little simpler again.

Back porch sunsets. Kids heading out to fish. The boat bag that somehow always stays packed by the back door. Dinner waiting at the Club after a day on the water. The kind of place that makes it easy to settle into a slower pace of summer on the coast.

Welcome home.

The end of a good day should feel like this.

A touch of salt on the breeze, sun still lingering over the harbor, and a promise of an evening on the back porch, followed by a stroll to the Club lawn when the Hope Regala kicks off. It’s a good day for a great cause.

Celebrate Mother’s Day at The Harbor Club this Sunday.

Members are invited to a specially crafted brunch in the Harbor Club Dining Room honoring the women who shape our lives — those who raised us, guided us, and the new generation creating traditions of their own.

A beautiful setting overlooking the Harbor, a selection of Chef’s brunch specialties, and time well spent together at The Harbor Club.

The waters around River Dunes are ideal for boating. It’s an easy run to the beaches at Cape Lookout and Shackleford Banks. The ice cream shop in Oriental overlooks the free town dock, so you can pull right up with the family. When you’re craving mahi, offshore is always an option.

The waterfront towns of Beaufort and Morehead City are filled with great restaurants and beautiful boutiques for a girls’ getaway. Ocracoke Island sits just across the Sound for an easy beach escape. Steady breezes make for great sailing on the Neuse River. And the drum fishing right off the shoals—guaranteed excitement.

Whatever direction you choose, you’ll find the coastal adventure you’ve been looking for at River Dunes.
