Golden on Holden is located in the prime island community of Oceanside. It sits on a corner cul-de-sac lot which adds additional privacy and fast access to the adjacent boardwalk that leads to the beach and clubhouse. The community clubhouse includes an oceanfront swimming pool, private beach access, gated parking, gathering room, bathrooms, and shower facilities. Our huge yard is great for calming in the sun, swinging in the hammock, playing corn hole, and grilling out with family and friends. We provide a charcoal grille for your use.

LOCATION:
Located on a modest barrier island, Holden Beach is located by water on all sides with eight miles of wide open beaches. Holden Beach has kept its timeless appeal and slow-paced lifestyle. There are no stoplights, high rises, or storefronts on the island. Holden Beach was highlighted on the cover of Coastal Living’s 2020 summer magazine as the Finest Beach in North Carolina.

If you want to take a break from the kitchen, Holden Beach offers a variety of eateries that satisfy both your taste buds and your budget. Sample some of the marvelous, fresh seafood at one of the waterfront grilles. Be sure to try a scoop of homemade ice cream from one of the local hot spots. There are a handful of favorite places to eat on the island for a casual bite to eat, and multiple more just across the bridge on the mainland. Additionally, a grocery store, pharmacy, and local stores are a short drive away.

Tips to get the best vacation home experience:

Money saving strategies:

• Summer is the most expensive season in coastal NC. Book your Cape Fear area rental property in the Spring or Fall to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• The earlier you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best rental properties are booked early. Reserving your vacation home six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your rental.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts for veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites frequently offer renters an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Many management companies supply Cape Fear area area visitors guides which often include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Choosing the best rental home in Holden Beach:

• Choose your dates and max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Spacious family home with private beachfront pool and clubhouse has 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts is usually available on booking websites. If they are not listed, email or call the property management company before you book the property. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• If there's a particular Cape Fear area beach you simply love, look for rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking.
• If your family is traveling with pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly property. Ask for specifics on breed, size, and type restrictions. Usually, property managers charge pet deposits and fees.

Considerations for your stay:

• Store the owner's information in your smartphone.
• Record any damages to the rental upon arrival, and immediately contact the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be helpful if a dispute is filed.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, intercom or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent many problems.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors can be a great source for finding the best local attractions.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental home while you are out and about. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the rental property to make sure you've collected all belongings. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the property one final time and look for any damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host is not available, take pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave feedback! Property owners rely on great reviews to drive future bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
