About this property

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

  • New in our program, this home has many great reviews from past guests.

    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. The oceanfront screened porch is a great place to relax out of the sun and enjoy the cool ocean breezes. Or you can enjoy the same breezes on the sun deck while getting a tan. This family beach is seldom crowded and the strand is less than 100 feet from the sun deck. You will never need to lug around your chairs or sand toys to enjoy them on the beach. Amenities include living, dining, and kitchen areas, plus central H/A, five ceiling fans, a microwave, a washer/dryer, a dishwasher, a cable TV, a stereo, high-speed WiFi, a screened porch, a sundeck, rockers, and a boardwalk to the beach.

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.

September Vacation

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.

Dog’s First Vacation

This was our dog’s first ever vacation and could not have picked a better place! The screened in porch and deck were perfect for dog sunbathing. The house was very inviting and clean. This will now be our spot for our yearly family vacation!

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!

So-so beach house

We loved the location with views of the ocean and the marsh. The house was roomy but was well-worn in some places - stained carpet, lacking some basics in the kitchen, thermostats were way off.

Great stay regardless of Hurricane Debby

Loved the screened in porch, and the dog enjoyed lounging in the porch area. Outdoor shower and sand rinse station on the walk way were used often and appreciated. Can’t anticipate hurricanes, but since we were at the beach we didn’t let Debby sour our vacation week and we were able to view the storm from the screened in porch - very impressive.

Beautiful little cottage

Absolutely loved this cozy little cottage. Perfect for empty nesters or a small family. The covered porch is wonderful and we loved that we could bring our dog. We've been coming to Holden Beach for 30 years and some of the properties, especially the dog friendly ones, don't always feel clean. This house felt immaculate. We loved it.

Cozy cabin

Loved reading about the history when during a hurricane an eon ago tore the upper level off and dropped it Inland, how it was recovered. Hood place for a couple weekend, even though it can sleep 6 persons, however there's one bathroom and a outside shower. The beds were very comfortable and the house served the purpose to trek to the beach, have great foods and spend family together. Enjoyed it.

Going Old Style

Location, location, location!! Lovely ocean views from the large screen porch and large, newer deck. This is one of the original Holden Beach Cottages and the owners have kept it quaint. All the rooms are smaller and it still has the knotty pine paneling. Generous allotment of white towels for the one old-style bathroom. Good linens for the beds. You will not find better access to the beach and water.

Perfect Place on the Beach

We have been return guest of Harleys for a few years now. This cozy beach front home is exactly how the pictures show. If your wanting fancy and sophisticated..... this is NOT your place. If you want clean , rustic original beach cottage charm.....THIS IS it! The new deck and walk way is amazing . Perfect place for us to bring our pooch and can feel at home and has everything you need!! My only negative comment which is same I have posted before is issues with receptacles in Kitchen . Plugs will not stay plugged in and have to unplug things to plug others in. Everything has to be used in that one spot, no additional outlets in kitchen . But we love it and its perfect for us and we will return every year!

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.
