Description Description
Torn down to the frame and completely rebuilt, this Holden Beach charmer is ready to be your home away from home! Located right along the water, the sand and surf are mere steps from the house, giving you unparalleled beach access. Even better is the fact that scenic parks, charters, a water park, golf courses, and numerous local restaurants to sample are only a short drive away. Back at your oceanfront retreat, step through the door to be greeted by a completely remodeled house with new appliances, an updated kitchen and bathrooms, and a new mini-split system to ensure everyone remains cool while here. Unwind comfortably in the living area watching something on TV or gaze outside at the sparkling water nearby. The well-equipped kitchen is sure to please the group chef and has everything needed to make small snacks, entire meals, and everything else in between. Indulge together at the table before heading out to the deck to lounge comfortably as the crisp North Carolina air brushes against your face and the sun sets. After exciting days of exploration and frolicking in the sand, know all of the bedrooms will provide a serene night's rest. Additional conveniences include a washer/dryer, free WiFi, and three of the bedrooms having their own TVs for private viewing.

We really liked this house. It has a nice layout that easily accomodated our party of 5. It is an easy walk to the beach and a great view from the poarch. I would recommend taking a mattress topper for the bed and do not rely on the fenced area for your dog.

Cozy
The property was perfect. Cozy, comfortable. The view from the deck was breath taking. I wanted to be able to feel the breeze from the ocean, hear the waves and smell the salt air. We have been looking for a place to rent yearly. This is it. I think we have found our spot.

Beautiful location and easy access to beach
House was clean, small but perfect, we were outside most of the time. beds are old and need some love, but it didn't dampen our stay. host was very responsive and easy to work with. We will stay again.

Great location and perfect Simple home for small family
Loved the location, the amount of rooms, and the underneath space. The view is incredible. Quiet end of the Main Street so not too much traffic. Only complaints are: some dog hair leftover on the floor from previously renters, and two Of the rooms had very very loud squeaky creaky beds. Otherwise incredible cleanliness and location!

Thank you for your feedback, Thomas! We’re so glad to hear that you loved the location, the incredible view, and the spacious layout of the home. Being in a quieter area sounds like it made for a peaceful and relaxing stay. We sincerely apologize for the leftover dog hair and the creaky beds in two of the rooms. We’ll address the cleaning oversight with our housekeeping team to ensure it doesn’t happen again, and we’ll look into the beds to see how we can make them more comfortable for future guests. Overall, we’re happy to hear you enjoyed the cleanliness and location, and we hope to have the chance to welcome you back for another wonderful stay!

Wonderful Holden Experience
My family has been going to Holden Beach since the 50's and we were delighted by this home for our small group. The home was very clean when we arrived and had a gorgeous view of the ocean on east part of the island.

Amazing location.
The Austin Cottage is a perfect getaway destination! Lovely porch, dog-friendly yard, and steps away to the beach. The location is quiet and relaxing. I will definitely revisit this home.

We rented this house years ago when my oldest son was a baby. 20+ years later and its like taking a step back in time. Everything is almost the same. Simple family life.(Just ignore the WIFI and TV and Dishwasher and microwave) Screened in porch is my favorite with the rocking chairs. Our 4th time being in this house and hopefully we will be able to come again. We love Austin Cottage
