Wonderful property. Clean, comfortable, spacious, well-maintained and everything that you need in the kitchen and throughout the house! Great place for a family and friends to bond and enjoy the beach. We have rented properties up and down the NC beach front over the 23 years we have lived in-state and this was one of the very best that we have enjoyed. Highly recommended!

Our family enjoyed many aspects of this home from the dock, elevator, and location on Holden Beach. The home was well appointed and very comfortable for two families to enjoy. A very short walk to the general store, ice cream, and beach.
