HB137 Peace & Quiet

More than enough space for our family (5 adults, 2 kids). Well stocked and comfortable. Easy walk to large open beach. Planning on a return trip next summer!

Thank you for the five‑star review. I’m glad the home had plenty of space for your family, was well stocked and comfortable, and that the walk to the open beach was easy. We look forward to welcoming you back to Holden Beach Retreats next summer!

Location was beach accessible, the house is tastefully decorated, beautiful shower in the Master bedroom and a huge walk in closet in the Master bedroom. Plenty of space in the living area for relaxing. The neighborhood is quiet.

A delightful family beach house!

The house was clean and was a short walk from the beach.

Home was a great size for a large family. We even have a little one and space to place his mattress or cribs inside the master. Lots of bath towels made showering nice with lots of girls too! Only item that would of been nice is there are no TV's in any rooms just the living room. Would of love to have TV's in all 3 rooms.

We loved the quiet, nearly deserted beach. The unit is large and had plenty of room for our nine guests. Very well equipped kitchen. Beds were all made and there were plenty of towels.

We had a wonderful stay Pawsitive Island Escape! It was beautifully decorated, very clean and had everything we needed for our stay.

1/2 mile from beach access. Great use of space. Comfy beds. Well done interior. And they even had great amenities for our pups! You SHOULD stay here!

Patty H. -

The house was in a great location on the island. Quiet, minimal traffic. The bedrooms were all good size and private. Would definitely stay here again.

This is a brand new house with great amenities. It’s walking distance to the beach and restaurants. We have zero complaints.

This gorgeous and spacious ocean front beach home was perfect for our family! We had 3 couples and 5 children in our party and there was more than enough room for all of us! The beds were very comfortable. We had a little issue with the refrigerator but I contacted vacasa and they sent someone immediately to fix the issue. The location was amazing! The neighborhood is super quiet and it felt like we had a private beach to ourselves because it was so spread out. We will definitely book this home again! The only points I would make for families with kids are that the stairs are a little steep. There is no grill or air fryer at this location, we brought ours from home since the air fryer is life with our kids. Other than that, it's perfect!

We had a really nice stay at Pawsitive Island Escape. The home has a very calming, cool, yet modern beach atmosphere. The front porch is welcoming with two very comfortable rocking chairs. There's a large room with living area, dining area, and kitchen as we entered the house. The kitchen had all the amenities we needed with a coffee maker, toaster, blender, and even an espresso machine. We enjoyed sitting at the island for breakfast and having coffee and snack time. The king and queen bedrooms were spacious, and the twin beds room was smaller but cozy. The hall bath was also a good size with a tub/shower combination. The primary bathroom was fun with a walk-in shower, double vanities, and a niche for the toilet. We have plenty of room to store our clothes and luggage out of sight in the primary walk-in closet. When we travel with our dogs, we try to find a home with an enclosed yard. This home didn't disappoint! Although a tad small, there was plenty of room for the dogs to run around, playn and do their business. The enclosed back porch was a good place to watch our dogs as they tried to catch the neighborhood squirrel that ran along the fence line every evening! We were very pleased with our stay and would love to come again sometime.

This was the perfect house for a weekend with our adult children. Everything was bright and clean and the kitchen was well-stocked with utensils and pots and pans. Although there was a lot of construction going on in the area, we were not bothered by noise at any time of the day or night. The walk to the beach is not long - about 10-12 minutes - but you do have to cross a very busy road, so we chose to drive and pay the parking fee when we had all our beach stuff with us.

The Pawsitive Island Escape cottage was beautifully appointed. The Scandinavian flair was just perfect for Oak Island. The amenities were superb and we felt at home from the moment we opened the door. The high end appliances and kitchen dinnerware and glassware were just beautiful. Our family spent more time than anticipated in the cottage. We highly recommend staying here and we are so looking forward to when we can visit again. The M Family

Beautiful inside and out. Quick walk to the beach!

Great place!

Each access awesome!! Several bathrooms and linens supplied. The area was gated and quiet which was a plus. Plenty of parking too.

Our family had a wonderful stay at this home. It’s as-described, but with more and larger closets than I anticipated! The kitchen is well stocked with anything you might need, and even a fancy espresso machine. This home is new construction, so new that I think the grass in the back yard has not been planted yet. Regardless, it was great. There is even a grill that isn’t advertised (though we didn’t use it, so I can’t guarantee it works). It’s a short walk to the beach (though across the main road, which is harder to cross on foot), or a minute’s drive. This summer Oak Island started charging for parking, so be prepared for that. Or, drop off the kids and gear and drive the car back home.

Jeremy H. -

We enjoyed our week long stay here. The house was so clean and new. Had everything we needed during our stay. It was in a great location. Pretty much in the middle of everything oak island has to offer. Beach, grocery stores, restaurants, ice cream shops, donut shop.

Karen T. -

This house is so beautiful and was spotlessly clean. We had a wonderful time. The beach at this spot was perfect too. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home.

There were so many things that made this home special. Really a perfect family retreat

We rent the 2 houses side by side for our extended family vacation which works out perfectly for us. What makes this house special in comparison to the other side is Vacasa's special attention to having the beds made and complimentary items that help with getting in the first night.

It’s behind the gate on the West end of the beach. Very private beach. It’s ocean dent, but does have a long walk on a wooden platform. Ice maker is nice for drinks and coolers. You can’t find a better deal for a 6 BR and 5 bath house. Kitchen stocked good too. There are no beach toys or chairs, so bring your own. This is our 2nd time here and will return.
