About this property

On Holden Beach Island

Our home is 3 BR/2B beach cottage that is a block from the beach. We have private beach access because we own property on the island. There are two accesses. Walk two blocks and you are touching your toes in the sand of Holden Beach. The beach is never crowded, even during holidays. Our home is 4/10th of a mile from all the main restaurants, a basketball court, and public park facilities.

The Town of Holden Beach is now charging a parking fee for all public parking spaces. Stay at our house and you don't need to pay for parking. It is less than half a mile walk to the restaurants, pickleball/tennis courts and ice cream shops.

We updated the kitchen with new countertops, stove, built-in-microwave, and dishwasher. The refrigerator is very spacious. We have a washer and dryer in the kitchen for your use.

The kitchen/living/dining are a large open space that is great for families to be together. There is a large TV with FOCUS cable and internet is provided. The dining area has a table and six chairs. There is also a bar in the kitchen that seats 4 more.

The house has been painted recently inside and out. The space under the house can be used for parking or outdoor activities. There is plenty of parking in front of the house and underneath. There is also a new outdoor shower under the house for our guests to use.

All the bedrooms have new queen size beds. The living room and all bedrooms have Roku TVs, with wireless internet. There are three porches, two on the back on one on the front all with water views. Come sit on the porch and feel the breezes.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

The house was clean and comfortable with a good layout. The beds were comfortable. The property is a short walk to the ocean and close to several restaurants. We enjoyed the three porches. Although we did not cook at all during our stay, the appliances appeared to be relatively new. The only issues that concerned me were the very creaky floor in the upstairs bathroom and the very low toilets In both bathrooms that appeared to be original to the house. The owner was very quick to respond to my questions prior to check-in which I really appreciated. I would definitely rent again

We had a wonderful time here! We have been coming to Holden for years! The place made us feel like we were right at home for sureHad everything you would need to complete your stay. Loved having coffee in the mornings on the front porch. You could make your own with the keurig or take a short walk to the coffe shop down the street! The communication with owners was great and check in and out was a breeze. We definitely look forward to returning soon:) only thing I would mention is if you have lots to take to the beach make sure to bring a cart because the beach entrance is a good walk away. Thank you Adrian and Marsha!

Why they chose this property

We purchased this property because we love Holden Beach. We have been coming here for over 15 years and love it so much!

What makes this property unique

The space underneath the house is awesome. There is a big picnic table and another smaller table down there. It is the perfect space to hang out at night. Even in the summer months there is always a breeze under the house.

We love putting our beach chairs out and sitting and visiting and just enjoying each other and our family.
