Dog-friendly beachfront house with screened porch, AC & W/D

This is a classic beach cottage with knotty pine tongue-and-groove interior siding. It has been equipped to include everything you will need to enjoy a long and fun-filled vacation at the beach.

Cottage was perfect - have stayed there many times. We appreciated being able to bring our cat this time as we had done before - with permission. Loved close walking distance to the beach!

Great smaller-sized beachfront home for a family or two. We loved the old-fashioned charm reminding us on Holden Beach from the 1960's and 1970's. The only two changes we recommend are buying cooking trays small enough to fit in the oven and maybe a new coffee maker. Otherwise, we would definitely book again.

Mini vacation

Charming cottage that offered all the amenities we needed. We especially enjoyed the screened in back porch as well as the easy access to the beach. Being able to enjoy it all with our dog was an added bonus.

We loved the fact we were right on the beach with a private walk way. Also we love the affordability of the home. Lastly we like that Harleys Better Half is close to restaurants and the grocery store.

This home away from home welcomes us with stained wood just like our cabin in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Virginia. Might be our 5th time to stay her and we'll be back next year.

Weekend get away!

I had booked the house for a sisters weekend, but that didn’t work out. Instead my husband, son, daughter in law and myself decided to go. The size of the house for us was perfect. We really enjoyed the screened in back porch. We love our own private access to the beach. I loved reading the history about the house. We will definitely be back!

Perfect beach getaway!

Left a similar review on Vacasa, but in short this is a perfect location for a beach vacation! The view from the screened in porch is amazing and you can spend your days on the porch watching the ocean and then go out to the water at your leisure. The home is also located very close to shops, fish markets, and the other things to see in Holden Beach. Definitely recommend this location for your next vacation!
