ABOUT HOLDEN BEACH:

Welcome to Holden Beach, North Carolina, where family values and old fashioned fun are still a part of your vacation. Holden Beach has a very small commercial area on the island. That point is considered by many to be a key reason to keep them coming back year after year. While there are limited commercial establishments on the island, everything one could desire is located within a short driving distance.

The causeway leading to the island contains numerous specialty stores and shops, and the Town of Shallotte just 10 minutes away has several chain grocery and department stores that provide all the necessities. Wilmington and Myrtle Beach are only 35-45 minutes away and if you can't find what you're looking for there, it doesn't exist.

There are over 125 superb golf courses within a one-hour drive from Holden Beach. Courses range from very challenging to user-friendly for golfers who don't always hit the ball where they want it to go. The Myrtle Beach area is perhaps the best region in the United States to find a course just right. Seasonal rates vary.

Boating, fishing and hiking the island are very popular activities. Shell hunters can find so many that the kids will fill up the car when they return home. The island is a sea turtle habitat and hi during the hatching season (May to October) those who don't mind staying up late at night can witness one of nature's most interesting pleasures – watching hundreds of small sea turtles boil' out of the sand and marching to the ocean.

There is no other North Carolina barrier island like Holden Beach. If you're looking for low commercial impact and a wholesome family-oriented atmosphere, you have come to the right place.

    “Contentment” is the right name for this beach house. The beach is always wonderful and when you are staying in a place that feels as comfortable as this place, it’s a very special experience.

    A great place to stay for families. Great house layout, beautiful views with big windows, close enough to the beach for the baby monitor to reach, great sandy beach beautiful for family pictures. It keeps bringing us back!

    Contentment on the Beach is a beautiful home that provided the perfect spot for a wonderful family vacation. The home is well stocked with everything you need for the stay. The pool is the perfect addition for a beach vacation to relax away from the waves. We travelled with children and the pool was just what they needed for a place to play after the fun in the sand. The view is AMAZING! We would book here again no question!

    Very nice pool. House is laid out nicely, however it truly needs painted, and power vents in bathrooms. Fairly well stocked except for coffee cups. Ceiling fans need cleaned as well.

    Beautiful home on Holden Beach. “Contentment” was just that! The salt water pool was the cherry on top! This spacious home had more than enough room for our family of 10. Gorgeous views, a relaxing space and comfy beds - a perfect week! We will definitely be back!

    My family and I LOVED this house! It is the perfect location! It is a very short walkway to the beach and the pool was such a fun addition for the kids (and adults). There are three safety gates outside to the pool and beach and that made our minds rest easy with kids. There is a lot of space and room and the house was clean and “homey”. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend this house to anyone. 10/10!!

    This rental was great for our large family, everyone had plenty of space to spread out. The pool was nice for when somebody wanted a break from the sand and salt. The house was clean and comfortable! Beth is a pleasure to deal with and so very nice!!!

    This was our second stay at this home, and it was just as enchanting as we remember. We love the spaciousness of the home, including the wonderful back decks overlooking the beach! We love to relax, read, and dolphin watch here with our family. The kitchen is well stocked and offers a great space for family dinners. This home offers a private pool with plenty of chairs and toys- which were well used by all of us. Impromptu beach walks and shell hunting are inviting as the home is directly the beach. The owners are quick to respond to any questions/concerns we had during our stay. If you want to reset and relax, try a visit!

    The cottage is spacious with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. Only a short walk over the dunes to the ocean. The view from the first and second floor porches is beautiful. The pool with optional heat is a nice feature. Approximately two miles from the Holden Beach bridge so it is convenient to stores and restaurants. Property owners were very communicative and answered all of our questions promptly.

    We rented “Contentment On the Beach” because it was large enough for our family but it turned out to be the best decision I could have ever made. This turned out to be a pretty rough year for our family for a lot of different reasons. This beautiful home has so much charm and has everything you need for a wonderful time on the beach. Our family was able to relax, recharge, forget all our worries, and have a wonderful time. Everything we needed was right there. And the pool was amazing. I felt like this was my heaven on earth and I honestly didn’t want to leave.

    This beautiful home is equipped with every single thing you'll ever need to make your stay spectacular. It has every appliance, every piece of silverware, pans, pots, knives - even kiddie plates/cups/utensils. If you don't feel like cooking on vacation, there are plenty of restaurants within 20 minutes (grocery store is within five minutes) and if that's too much for you just DoorDash! Plenty of seating inside and out, bedrooms are spacious and TV's are everywhere. This home is immaculate and perfectly laid out. What awaits you outside is MORE than a family would ever need on vacation. A lovely sized pool with an outdoor shower for those quick rinses. A shed PACKED with beach chairs, toys for the kids, umbrellas and even a clean off station when you come in from the AMAZING ocean which is right outside your back door. Should you forget to bring a necessity there is a small general store about a half mile away. You have everything you need at Contentment on the Beach.

    We have been vacationing using VRBO for years and by far, Beth has been the most communicative. She answered all of my questions before deciding on Contentment, during and after. The house was beautiful and perfect for our family of six adults and three young ladies. The girls loved going to the beach or swimming in the pool. The adults loved having coffee and wine overlooking the ocean. Even with a little tropical storm (Debby) the time was spent with games or puzzles. We all enjoyed ourselves!

    Contentment on the Beach is an understatement to say the least. My family , daughters, sons in laws and 3 grandchildren just returned from a lovely week in Holden Beach. Coming into this lovely house was like coming home. A beautiful note along with a special seashell ornament was waiting for us on the kitchen counter. I have been to many rentals over the years and I have to say that Beth went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. I hope that all her future tenents will have as wonderful a stay as we had. And l don’t want to forget the salt water pool. It was so much fun having water fights with our grandkids. The memories we made are priceless.
