Holiday rentals with a fire pit in Holden Beach

We had such a wonderful time at Holden! Dawn was very responsive and extremely helpful when we booked last minute. We are so thankful for our mini getaway! We brought our new boat and the dock was perfect, very high quality. I’m only sad the rest of the summer is already booked!

We had the best time!! We were able to bring our boat and park it at the boat dock. I will say if you have a bigger boat I don’t know if you will be able to park there all weekend, but not a far drive at all to a boat ramp. The place was very clean and had all the things you will need! There is even dog toys and a bed! Betsy was super helpful and nice. We will definitely come and stay many more times.

The pictures does no justice. An amazingly beautiful home. The backyard is a relaxing oasis. James was very tentative in responding to our questions. My family and I will definitely be staying here again in the future.

Five Stars All the Way! We had the most incredible stay at Vaycash on Bald Head Island! From the moment we walked in, it felt less like a rental and more like staying at a dear friend’s beautiful home. Stef has thought of everything—the home is gorgeously decorated, full of charm, and stocked with more amenities than any place we've ever stayed. This was hands-down the most above-and-beyond experience we’ve ever had with an Airbnb. Every detail was thoughtfully done—from the fully equipped kitchen (a dream to cook in!) to the peaceful, tucked-away location in the woods that gave us the perfect mix of relaxation and adventure. The golf cart made exploring the island a breeze, and the kids were thrilled with the bikes and kayaks. Stef’s generosity and attention to detail made this getaway truly special—we didn’t want to leave! We can’t recommend Vaycash highly enough and are already dreaming about our next visit.

The apartment was beautiful, super clean, the bed was very comfortable and the views of the ocean were spectacular. This place was like a little paradise away from home. Donna and Bobby were very responsible for providing a clean, comfortable, and well maintained space, as well as offering excellent communication. We can't wait to go back to this little paradise away from home.

Great place! The location was fabulous. The space was nicely decorated and beautifully maintained.

The place was spotlessly clean and looked exactly like the pictures. The pool and lazy river were perfect for families with kids. When we got tired of the pool, the beach was just a few steps away, making it incredibly convenient.

Great place, beach house energy!! Walkable to the beach, nice dock at the end of the road. Close to great restaurants and still convenient to Holden & Southport (25-30 min drive) we went to both for dinner. Also has great amenities with the beach equipment they have for guest, helped us as we didn’t come fully prepared as we normally do! Johnny (their Pup) was a sweet touch to say hey to when he was out with his people, the hostess, whom are both very friendly!!!! :) I’d recommend this house to anyone to stay at!

Harry was responsive and helpful. The place is walkable to downtown. We had a great stay.

Very quaint beach house, about three blocks from the beach. It is definitely walkable. There were people out walking dogs, jogging, riding golf carts and even roller blading. The house was great. I have some minor back and neck problems, and for us, the beds were not good. If you have similar issues, a couple of inflatable air mattresses might be a good bring along. Other than the mattresses, I have no complaints. The kitchen was pretty well stocked with all the basic cookware and utensils you need. The location was private, quiet, and pretty clean. There was a little residue on the floor- not like it had not been mopped, but like maybe the mop needed to be rinsed and one more pass made. I dropped something, so I wiped the floor with wet paper towel. I wiped up my food I dropped, and a little dirt as well. 😀 Not a big deal for me, considering proximity to the beach and the amount of sand that probably gets dragged in there. Overall, our stay was wonderful. We want to come back!

Me and three others enjoyed our stay here! The condo is exactly as the photos show, it is very clean and roomy for four adults! There is an ocean view balcony and a street view balcony for fresh air. It is close by (walking distance) to surrounding restaurants/bars and the beach. We enjoyed the pool during our stay as well! Susan communicates well and is very responsive! We will be booking again when staying in town in the future!

We love staying at vintage beach houses that are not your usual cookie-cutter type of places that are so common. I love that this house was built by family. You can feel the love, history, and general good vibes in this house. Laura was very helpful and generous with answering all my questions, which I really appreciated! We loved sitting on the back porch (feels like a treehouse!) and watching the birds in the morning and the sunset over the marsh in the evening. It’s a short and straightforward drive to the beach and a very pleasant do-able walk (just over a mile) if you want to get some extra steps in. Laura has everything you need for the beach - chairs, umbrella, boogie boards, wagon. Beds and furniture were very comfy and we felt right at home at Laura’s place! Thank you, Laura, Brian, and Melissa for a wonderful stay!
