About This House:

We purchased this home when our kids were young. We used the 2 bedroom downstairs ourselves and rented the 3 bedroom upper unit. Our kids grew up and had kids of their own. We'd outgrown our comfortable 2 bedroom unit. We then put in a spiral staircase that connects the two units, so it can be used as one 5 bedroom home with two living areas and two kitchens during the peak summer season when huge combined families vacation together. We have a lock out door and insulation for the stairwell that we put in place during the spring and autumn. We've rented our lower unit and the upper unit simultaneously to unrelated events for many years now. We have no problems or complaints about this arrangement from our renters who choose our home. Offering both units for rent simultaneously accepts us to price very competitively.

ABOUT HOLDEN BEACH
Welcome to Holden Beach, North Carolina, where family values and old fashioned fun are still a part of your vacation. Holden Beach has a very modest commercial area on the island. That point is considered by many to be a key reason to keep them coming back year after year. While there are limited commercial establishments on the island, everything one could want is located within a short driving distance.

The causeway leading to the island contains many specialty stores and stores, and the Town of Shallotte just 10 mins. away has multiple chain grocery and department stores that provide all the necessities. Wilmington and Myrtle Beach are only 35-45 mins. away and if you can't find what you're looking for there, it doesn't exist.

There are over 125 superb golf courses within a one-hour drive from Holden Beach. Courses range from very challenging to user-friendly for golfers who don't always hit the ball where they want it to go. The Myrtle Beach area is perhaps the best region in the United States to find a course just right. Seasonal prices vary.

Boating, fishing and hiking the island are very fashionable activities. Shell hunters can find so many that the kids will fill up the car when they return home. The island is a sea turtle habitat and during the hatching season (May to October) those who don't mind staying up late at nighttime can witness one of nature's most interesting pleasures – watching hundreds of modest sea turtles "boil' out of the sand and marching to the ocean.

There is no other North Carolina barrier island like Holden Beach. Low commercial impact, hundreds of handsome rental homes (many with dockage for fishing and enjoyment boating) and a wholesome family-aligned ambiance.
