About this property

Chic Retreat by the Dunes

Forest Retreat Between Lake & Ocean
Escape to a 4-star modern sanctuary nestled in the heart of a fragrant pine forest at the foot of the dune. This south-facing 3-bedroom home invites you to wake up to the rustle of the trees and relax on a 60 m² terrace with uninterrupted woodland views. Inside, a bright open-plan living area, sleek kitchen, and walk-in shower create the perfect balance of comfort and luxury—ideal for up to 6 guests. Whether you're sipping espresso at sunrise or enjoying a quiet glass of Médoc wine in the evening, nature is always within reach.

Beaches, Biking & Bordeaux Wines
Perfectly placed between the ocean and lake, you’re just a 10-minute bike ride to Maubuisson’s lakeside charm or 15 minutes to the wild waves of Carcans Plage. Spend your days paddleboarding, sailing, or lounging on the sand. Cyclists and hikers will love the scenic trails weaving through the forest. And for wine enthusiasts, world-renowned Médoc vineyards and châteaux are just a short drive away, as are bucket-list destinations like the Dune du Pilat, Cap Ferret, and Bordeaux.

Dining & Details That Matter
After a day of adventure, treat yourself to delicious seafood or a cozy bistro meal in Maubuisson (2 km away). The home offers all the amenities you need—from sun loungers and a secure garage to a full kitchen and washer. Please note: pets are not allowed, ensuring an allergen-free, peaceful experience for all.

Excellent spot

The house is very well maintained and located in a lovely and quiet part of the forest, yet still close to the lake. The owners - Céline & Stéphane - gave us a warm welcome and were very responsive to our messages. The house has all the equipment you need to feel at home, is decorated with very high standards and excellent taste. We recommend this location.

Schönes helles Haus im

Das Haus is sehr neu und mit Geschmack eingerichtet. Man merkt, dass die Vermieter es selber auch sehr gerne nutzen. Es hat an nichts gefehlt. Celine und Stephane haben uns herzlich begrüßt und verabschiedet. Einzige kleine Kritik: Für mehr Personen wären eventuell ein weiterer großer Topf und eine große Pfanne gut. Die Umgebung ist ebenfalls sehr ansprechend. Pinienwald, See oder Meer bieten viele Möglichkeiten sich zu erholen. Vielen Dank Celine und Stephane!

Dit vakantiehuis was een echt pareltje! Schoon en gezellig, met een open haard die de avonden zoveel beter maakte. Ik vond het geweldig dat we gemakkelijk naar de oceaan en het meer konden voor wat waterpret. De keuken was goed uitgerust, dus koken was een fluitje van een cent. De bedden waren ook comfortabel! Even ter informatie: we vonden de parkeergelegenheid wat krap, maar we hebben het gered. Al met al een fantastisch verblijf!
