Holiday rentals with a fire pit in Intracoastal Waterway

We loved our beach stay at Rhonda's place! It was our first time to Holden Beach and it was awesome to stay in a clean, comfortable place. It was an easy to walk to the beach. The neighborhood was safe and friendly. Beach supplies were at the house for our use and the outside shower was super helpful. Rhonda was responsive and kind and we would definitely recommend her place! Also, she provided great coffee for our stay!!

It was our second stay here and we feel right at home there. We love the spacious back porch and large fenced yard for our dogs. It is very walkable to the beach but we were able to get parking by the beach access. The house is well stocked with everything you need and even lots of Tupperware! The owners have been renovating and adding to the appeal since the last time we came five months ago. We can’t wait to come back again.

We loved staying at Brooke’s place for our annual beach trip! It was the perfect spot for me, my wife, and our two little kids (1 and 6 years old). The house has such a great vibe—classic beach house charm with modern updates like nice bathrooms and comfy beds. We spent a ton of time just hanging out on the front porch swing, and our evening walks to the waterway to catch the sunset were a highlight. The walk to the beach was super easy, even with the kids, which made the whole trip that much more relaxing. Whenever we come back to Holden Beach, we’ll definitely be staying here again. Already looking forward to next time!

My family and I had a great time at John's place. we enjoyed the backyard, the home was perfect, and the nearby restaurants were amazing. We also enjoyed going to Holden Beach and spending the day with our grandbabies. Erin left us some great snacks and even came to the home to show us how to work the TV. It ended up being batteries for the remote but nevertheless she made the trip to help. I would definitely recommend John's place and stay there again myself.

Lee's home was exceptional! Lee as a host, could not ask for anyone better. His home was very clean, with a great gathering area in the back yard. Location of the home was in a good spot, kind of center between Oak Island / Southport and Holden / Shalotte area. Lee is very friendly and easy to communicate with and i would definitely rent from him and recommend him to others.

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.

Such a cute house! Comfy bean bag chair, comfy master bed, and such cute decor. Have to drive to the beach, but that was fine with us! Super clean and cozy. Paul was great. Would definitely stay here again!

We loved staying here! Robert’s place was clean, fully stocked, and had everything we needed for a fun beach week. The golf cart and hot tub were a hit with my boys and the fenced in backyard was perfect for our dog. We would definitely stay here again!

Perfect, old-school beach getaway! We loved parking ourselves on the “lifeguard stand built for two” and just watching: the waves, the wildlife, the surfers, the sky…soooo relaxing and just what we needed to unwind for a few days. We loved the laid back vibe of the place and the hosts!

My daughter and I had a girls weekend. This was our first time at Kure Beach. The place is very nice. The walk to the beach was at most 5 minutes. The outdoor sitting area and fire pit was amazing. The host are very responsive. The internet was out and I messaged them and they responded quickly. It was resolved within 15 to 20 minutes. I highly recommend this place.

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.

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

Absolutely wonderful stay! Incredibly clean, comfortable, and cute place that’s perfect for two. Lisa was a great host and hope to be back!

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 had such an amazing time at River Retreat! Felt very safe and comfortable right at home truly. It unfortunately was raining so bad one of the days but that didn’t stop us we still had a great time, make sure you enjoy that sunset on the balcony or catch the sunrise, it’s worth it! :)

Definitely a wonderful place. Would recommend it to anybody that's thinking about booking!

I’ve stayed at this resort before in an RV. Staying in the cabin was just as great. We intend to return. Easy access, friendly staff, and overall great guest in the resort. I highly recommend.

I will definitely book again! This place was a hidden gem! The quiet area, the beautiful views and peaceful atmosphere was the perfect getaway in Columbus county. I enjoyed fishing, the dock, the back porch and I had a wonderful trip! The host was proactive and friendly! She left great advice and instructions. I slept so peacefully!

Very nice and peaceful. Would love to go back sometime.

Location was absolutely incredible. Just a few steps from the beach. Proximity to restaurants and nightlife is amazing as well.

This little cabin is an absolute triple threat. You get the country, stunning river view, and only a short drive to the beach. The cabin was immaculately cleaned and well stocked with toiletries, etc. The air units can be set to keep it nice and cool and the beds were clean and comfortable. No mosquitoes even though the river is literally across the little road. Nice surprise for sure. The noise level was surprisingly very quiet even for the weekend. Check-in can't get any simpler and direct. I used the furniture from the porch to block the stairs and my fur baby could chill on the porch with me too. Host was extremely responsive and polite. We didn't get to use the fire pit this time but I imagine it would be amazing especially when it's cold out. And last but not least, the neighbors.... from Colby in the cut to Becky in the back, I was treated with respect and kindness. And they were those type of neighbors that aren't in your business too. I can't wait to visit again.

Great place to stay! Great for hanging out with friends and family. Very private. The host are great !! Very friendly. I’d say choose this place if you want to be near everything and also have privacy!!

Cozy Cabin was perfect for our family. Very clean and nice place. We used the Get Away house as well that was available during our stay. It was the perfect set up. And the fenced in back yard was very nice. We will return in the future for a future stay.
