About this property
Cozy Cottage Vibes! Beachside, Huge Porch, Walk to Restaurants, Dogs Welcome
Tucked away on the oceanside of Carolina Beach Avenue South, Hollis House is the perfect blend of charm, comfort, and convenience. This standalone, second-row beach cottage offers a peaceful setting just a short stroll from the sand—no busy roads to cross and no shared walls with noisy neighbors.
You’ll love spending time on the large front porch, where the sound of crashing waves and the sea breeze set the tone for total relaxation. Sip coffee in the rocking chairs or gather for lunch at the picnic table before heading to the beach or exploring downtown. Located just a few blocks from Carolina Beach Lake Park and the Boardwalk, this home puts you close to all the fun—restaurants, shops, live music, and more.
Inside, the home features a generously sized kitchen with plenty of counter space, comfortable living and dining areas, and a Jack-and-Jill layout connecting the two bedrooms through the full bath. There's also ample off-street parking with space for up to three vehicles—no fighting for spots or paying to park during your stay. With thoughtful touches like fresh linens and towels (included in the cleaning fee), Roku Smart TVs, and a washer/dryer, you’ll have everything you need for a relaxing and easygoing beach vacation.
