Oceanfront Cottage with Great Views!

This oceanfront cottage offers two bedrooms (1K, 1Q) and two bathrooms. You are sure to enjoy your time at Holden Beach in this vibrant home with great views of the Atlantic Ocean! The king bedroom opens directly into the oceanside sunroom. Each bedroom offers it's own private bath. Just a few steps off the porch and you are walking the golden sand beach or jumping into the waves. You are within walking distance to the pier from this home. Home's laundry area is on the ground level. What are you waiting for? This home is waiting just for you!

Holden Beach is a part of a barrier island chain located along the southeastern coast of NC. It is one of the best rated, least crowded, and most beautiful family beaches found. National Geographic Smart Traveler magazine recently ranked Holden Beach among it's top 10 "Best Family Beaches". The town of Shallotte is a 10 minute drive away with restaurants, grocery and department stores. Within an hour drive to Myrtle Beach, SC, you can relax on the beach during the day and drive to Myrtle Beach at night to play!

Boating, fishing, and hiking on the island are all popular activities. Jet ski rentals are available under the Holden Beach bridge. Holden Beach is a shell hunters paradise! And for those who love sea turtles, hatching season runs May to October.

Perfect for Relaxing!
This property was perfect for my friend and I to have our annual ‘girls’ week where we can just relax and enjoy the beach/ocean atmosphere. House was clean…and we received prompt replies for any questions we had.

Fantastic beach front cottage!
Beautiful, beachy place directly on the ocean with a big deck facing the water that affords fantastic views. Had a hurricane approach during my stay and the property manager was extremely helpful in communicating useful information and offering help. Great place! Highly recommend.

30th Anniversary Trip
Perfect oceanfront beach cottage for couples. Great ocean access and house had everything we needed. Enjoyed cooking fresh fish we caught and sunsets on the deck. Also learned about sea biscuits! Susan is a great host!

Wonderful Beach Week
Had a wonderful week on the beach. The house is located on a great part of Holden Beach. House was clean and very comfortable for a small family. One improvement needed is the king mattress.

Great week at the beach
Rental experience was easy. Communication with the host was great. Great location as well. The property needs some TLC. It was not clean with food scraps (peanuts and the like) on the floor and counters. The property had not been vacuumed or swept either.

The kitchen was well equipped except for storage containers WITH lids. A cover on the porch and hooks or usable closet space would be good to hang clothes.

Loved the rental except was not completely informed that there would not be any linens ( no sheets or towels provided) except through order from the owners. Had to make trip to Dollar General & slept on a comforter for a week with the one blanket provided.

Furniture needs to be replaced.
The house itself was ok except no covered area to sit under outside and you really couldn't look straight out from house and see the beach and the waves due to the dunes. Our biggest complaint, though is the beds and the furniture. We tried the king size bed and the queen size and they were both awful! Worst sleep ever on a vacation! The couches and chairs in the living room were equally awful! We had a horribly time due to being sore and tired from trying to sleep. Never so glad to be home from our vacation.

Spacious and eclectic in a wonderful location.
The home is in a perfect location directly on the beach! Everything in the home was as described and clean upon arrival. The beds desperately need replacing. As mentioned by a previous guest, they are very uncomfortable. The decor is fun and eclectic, such a great vibe. The soft surfaces (sofa, chairs, etc) could certainly use updating yet are still comfortable. Communication with the property manager was great. She checked in with us upon arrival and answered questions before our arrival. Spacious, eclectic, fun with a good vibe.

Had a great time but....
We had a great stay at Holden Beach. I love the house is ocean front! There's a few things I didn't enjoy about the house itself. There isn't access to the beach from the front of the house, you have to go through the house to the back porch (ocean side). This makes it hard for items you don't want to carry through the house like beach chairs, coolers, etc. The luggage elevator did not work so we had to carry very heavy items up the stairs. The back porch (ocean side) is not covered which is fine but owner could at least provide an umbrella for the table. We found the back porch (ocean side) lights didn't work at all so it was hard to see. There is water damage on a few of the bedroom walls. There isn't overhead lights in the bedrooms only lamps. That was fine but we found we couldn't turn the lamps off without unplugging them from the wall. Both bathrooms/ showers are very small. The washer and dryer are in the bottom of the house, no access to them from inside the house. This is a cute house but needs some upgrades.

Good stay. House is nice. Would have been nice to have windows that opened to let in the ocean air and the blinds inside the window diminished the view. Made it feel like you weren’t on the ocean at all. Kitchen sparsely supplied, but enough to make do. It was nicely decorated and a walk out the door to the beach which was nice.
