This is a lovely place to stay for a relaxing trip. My family enjoyed our stay, and we were thrilled that we could bring our beloved dog along. We left with plenty of good memories and a hefty shark tooth collection!

We loved the place and we were communicated with before and throughout our stay. The house was very spacious for the 4 of us and my kids loved it. The location may not be on the water, but is within walking distance to the beach access and the amenities to clean off were great. The beds were comfortable, rooms large, TVs were great, kitchen had everything we needed and we enjoyed the 4 different porches!

The hosts were excellent - responsive and proactive in offering suggestions, etc. The home was cozy and just right for 3-4 people. The single beds in each room are cots that slept comfortably. The two bathrooms upstairs share a shower (which was an amazing shower, I might add!). We had a great experience here.

Excellent property with excellent location. Always room for little improvements but it is a great property with a good price point. Host had excellent communication and this VRBO by far has the least amount of request at check in and out. Nothing much more than you would do at your own home. Will definitely be checking for availability if we return to Holden beach.

Honeymoon Heaven!

We loved staying at this beach bungalow for a few nights. We grilled in the backyard, found lots of shark teeth with the beach a walk away, and we adored the decor and coziness of our rental. We would love to come again and bring our dog!

We could feel the care put into this home- from the clean space to the brand new appliances. The location was perfect! We loved being able to simply grab a chair and simply stroll to the beach, especially at night under the glow of the full moon! Peaceful uncrowded and truly magical!

Thank you Jessica! That pesky weeds is all over the island, super annoying! We are continuing to work towards eradicating them and are on a fearless mission.. along with many other home owners on the island!

Great place for a small family and dog. Home is clean and well stocked with everything you need for the week. The fenced in back yard makes it easy for a quick bathroom break and the location is great for longer walks. Beach access is close, not hard to find. Loved being able to see the ocean from the upper level.

Cottage fully furnished. Very updated and clean. Convenient and close to beach access. Quiet street to walk. Great shower. One of the best features and surprises was the fenced backyard. Our Boykin Spaniel, Siena, really enjoyed it. Enjoyed watching the wildlife in the back natural area from the deck. Rabbits, and Raccoons, and Deer, Oh My!!

Loved “ that’s what sea said”

The host was very responsive when we had any questions. The house was well kept and including a lot of amenities. Love that there was no houses behind us and had deer grazing in the shrubs behind the property. It was also a very quick walk to the beach which we loved. We will definitely return to this property in the future.

Great location

I absolutely loved my stay at this property. First of all, it's a very nice house and decorated super cute. It was a very short walk to the beach every day. I also walked every morning through the neighborhood and that was so nice. I brought my dog with me and while we were not able to utilize the backyard for her potty due to the sand spurs, we were able to walk out front and down the street for that. I would definitely return to this property in the future. I really enjoyed my stay.

Thank you so much Missy for choosing our home!! We absolutely loved having you and your fur baby! You were a wonderful guest and we are so glad you were able to enjoy the serene walks not only on the beach but at outside our home. Apologies for the sand spurs, but that nasty weed is everywhere on the island so eradicating them has been an exhausting effort, but we are determined (just like hundreds of other owners) to put an end to those annoying weeds!! Thank you again for choosing our home and please come back again, we would love to host you!!

This is a charming and extremely comfortable place! The decor and thoughtful touches make it a superior choice. We had two dogs with us and the set-up couldn’t have been better. Very convenient and safe for our fur babies. The home is well cared for—clean, beautiful, very comfortable. We used all four decks and enjoyed each one. It’s a short walk to the beach and the green space behind the fenced in back yard was especially nice.We will be back!!
