This is the perfect family friendly home away from home. We keep returning here because we love the home layout, the proximity to both the beach and the waterway, and it’s the perfect spot for our family. Holden Beach has been a favorite destination of ours for 25 years and we are so happy to have found the perfect spot to stay when we visit! Communication with the host is always very easy, as well. We will definitely be back!

The house is beautifully maintained and the location is perfect. Short walk to the beach and we loved walking out on the boardwalk to the waterways. We had an issue with the AC being tripped due to some power surges from a thunderstorm and Mike was super responsive and quick with getting it fixed. Perfect family trip to celebrate my daughter’s birthday!

The house was immaculate. We cook most our own meals and the kitchen had quality appliances and was stocked with the utensils needed. It was a five minute walk to the beach but a wagon was provided to out your beach stuff. A bonus was access to a pier out into the marsh and inter coastal waterway. This was our 18th year in a row to stay at Holden Beach and this was one of our favorite houses with a very helpful owner through VRBO.

This property was amazing from the moment we first entered. The house was immaculate. The owner even leaves a welcome station with beginning supplies and even cute koozies with the house name on it. Although the home is a short walk from the beach you don’t even care because you are literally right at the gate to the beautiful neighborhood pier over the intercoastal waterway. We traveled with our children age 20, 16 and 14 and our youngest also brought a friend. The bunk room was perfect for the younger girls and we actually took the downstairs master as our room so the kids could have the upper space to themselves. There are two front decks that were enjoyed by all but the house also has an amazing back screened deck that we loved spending time on. The upper living space had games that the kids played in the evening. The kitchen was well stocked and we visited the local fish market several times making seafood feasts for dinner. The closet below the house was an added bonus with beach stuff (this was a nice touch as many houses we’ve rented didn’t have that). This house is definitely one our entire family would love to come back to.
