Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Michael Brady

Mike and Becky have always loved vacationing at the beaches of North Carolina. They would spend at least a week each year plus a few weekends renting various homes with their families. After dreaming about a beach place of their own for many years, they found just what they were looking for at 123 By the Sea in Holden Beach.
Why they chose this property
Carefree By the Sea offers both beach and Intracoastal Waterway access! There's a short, 3 or 4 minute walk to a private neighborhood walkway over the dunes to the beautiful beach. And just out the front door is the private neighborhood pier out to the Waterway. There is an observation platform with benches at the midpoint and benches and a floating dock at the end.
What makes this property unique
Two separate covered front porches look out over the marsh to the Intracoastal Waterway. A screened porch in the back is perfect for relaxing in late afternoons while the sun sets.
