I highly recommend this beach house to anyone. It is a beautiful home and well taken care of. I actually got married at Holden Beach on July 22, 2010. My family rented M and M and Joy of Flying for the week, while my groom and his family stayed at a near by home. We had an awesome week! Our wedding ceremony was on the shore. BEAUTIFUL!! We used the boardwalk across from the beach house as an easy access from the ceremony to the reception. Our wedding reception was held in the backyard and it worked out perfectly. If you are considering having a beach wedding, you should!!!

Just wanted you both to know that our family week of "Christmas at the Beach" went beyond our expectations! The weather was assorted (some rain, some cold, some wind, some 60 degrees), the house accommodated us exceptionally well, and our fellowship was relaxed and easy. All the family commented on how well the house was laid out, how clean the house was, how great the lighting was (comments were that beach houses usually do not have great lighting for reading), how well-equipped the kitchen was with dishes/appliances, and the list could go on! You made me look good! Stan and I stayed in the upstairs room in THE JOY OF FLYING...we knew we were in the right place when we saw the airplane fan and the airplane border in the room....our son had the same fan in his room growing up! Stan and our son are pilots so we enjoyed the decor! We did our own cleaning and tried to leave it better than we found it (although it was clean!) All the family indicated we would like to do this again next year...if the house is available. Thanks again for your hospitality....we definitely give M&M and THE JOY OF FLYING a "2 thumbs up"

Our families were here the first summer M & M and Joy of Flying were here. We have been back every year since - sometimes more of us than others (cousins are growing up and lives are busier). We have fond memories of staying here thanks for sharing your lovely place."

Huge tidal pools - lots of fish - big & little and ton's of fun. Be back next year - Thank you for a great spot."

After 25 years at Holden Beach, we appreciated especialy the wonderful appliances and the bright & airy look. Having access to M & M made 2 kitchens, 2 washing machines, etc a special pleasure.

Oh by the way, I'm only 10 years old so thats why my writting and spelling is kind of bad. But anyway, I have really enjoyed my stay here in this lovely house. The only thing I didn't like about my beach trip was that I had to share a room with my 3 year old brother who bothers me so much. Other than that it has been a great trip and I love this house, it's sooo big! Well I'm going to stop writing because I'm running out of space, but trust me thers alot more I wish I could tell you! Love Becky"
