Come join us for a week in paradise. Here’s why:
* One of the best rated, least crowded and most beautiful family beaches found anywhere.
* Very Private, with wonderful waterviews, decks and yet very close proximity to the beach (4th row, only approx. 200 yards to private neighborhood beach access.
* Tasteful, spacious and renovated accommodations with much more space than most single family homes of similar price
* Baby proofing throughout including the decks.
* Approximately 40 world class golf courses within a 30 minute radius.
* Pristine & uncrowded wide white-sand beach
* Plenty of great dining choices, shopping and children’s amusements, all within a 2 mile radius.
* Some of the best fishing and boating on the East Coast
Relax and enjoy any of the 4 decks (2 on the front and 2 on the back). Both the front and back side of the property have wonderful waterviews, front covered decks facing the Atlantic Ocean and the back decks facing the IntraCoastal Waterway. Inside you'll find a spacious living area (approximately 1400 sq. ft of living space) with updated and tasteful decorations throughout.
Our property is very private, yet you're VERY close to the beach, approximately 200 yards to direct and private beach access. There are no houses behind. We have a beautifully landscaped backyard (palm trees, large cactus), an outdoor H/C shower (yes, there are indoor showers too...), picnic table, hammock, lots of deck furniture and plenty of parking underneath the house.
Holden Beach is still a well-kept secret, perhaps not for long though. National Geographic Smart Traveler magazine recently ranked Holden Beach among it's top 10 "Best Family Beaches" category. Additionally, AAA Beach Vacation Travel Journal recently ranked H.B. one of their "Top 30 Beaches" overall. H.B. offers a great alternative to the crowds and commercialism of nearby N. Myrtle Beach, which is only approximately 30 miles away.
*Bedding arrangement: 2 queen beds, 1 double bed, and one single bed ("bunk style") - double bed also converts to futon (great kids room or can accommodate several adults). Sleeper sofa in main living area for additional sleeping.

Why the Owner Chose Holden Beach
Pristine wide white sand beach that is uncrowded. No high rises, only cottages on the island (due to 30 ft. height restrictions). Low-key, relaxed family atmosphere that is still relatively undiscovered. Island runs East to West which is somewhat unique for the east Coast...makes for some interesting Atlantic sunsets (over the water in the Winter)
The Unique Benefits at this 1 Side of LARGE DUPLEX
We have privacy with nobody behind us yet are less than a one minute walk from the beach. We think it is much better than 2nd row due because of not being surrounded by houses and not sitting on a busy main thoroughfare. From the front we have a ocean view and from the back we have a clear view of the boats on the Intracoastal waterway. Brunswick Ave is ideal for biking, blading or running because it is quiet and safe, yet just a block from the beach and paralle to the beach road (Ocean Blvd). Our landscaping in the backyard includes 3 large palm trees and a huge prickly pear cactus, giving a nice tropical feel. We have multiple decks on both sides and a great patio area down below ideal for grilling with a nice breeze at street level (hang the hammock down there for a great nap setting!). There is a wonderful outdoor hot/cold shower that is very enticing after a day at the beach.

Thank you so much for a relaxing week in Holden Beach. The house was just a described. My family had never rented a house or condo for a vacation. We did not know what to expect. After a quick run to the store for food, we were soon sitting on the deck sipping some wine. We had a great time on the beach, riding bikes, and kayaking on the intercoastal. We visited some of the other beach communities nearby. If you want a quiet more less crowded beach and community, this rental unit and Holden Beach is the place to go.
