There is no additional cost to heat the pool, but we can not guarantee the pool water temperatures due to the dependency of the weather and air temperatures. Please keep in mind that the heater only runs when the pool pump is running and typically the pump does not run at night due to time schedule.

If you want us to attempt to heat the pool during this time we can for a cost of $75 per day for your entire stay, but once again, we can not guarantee the pool water temperatures due to the dependency of the weather and air temperatures.

    Excellent place for our family Labor Day weekend with our children and grandchildren. The walk to the beach was long, but the great ocean view and great pool made up for it.

    House was great. Walk to the beach is a challenge. Dishwasher needs to be updated. Dishes came out with food still on them. Other than that it was a very good experience.

    Beautiful location, house had everything we needed. Unfortunately the walkway to the beach had standing water so the mosquitos were bad but to be expected with wet weather. Plenty of rooms and the pool was great!

    The property was exactly as listed and featured incredible views of the ocean from the back decks. The pool was a standout and the kitchen was fully stocked, made cooking for multiple families a breeze! There was some mold on the bathroom ceilings and fans but assumed that came from the hurricane moisture that came through the previous week. If that was cleaned, we’d definitely stay again.

    The house, property and view is beautiful. There was plenty of room to spread out, 8 adults and 4 children. The kitchen had all the cookware, silverware, baking supplies that you might need. Plenty of space in the kitchen area and island. We sat a lot outside as the covered upper deck had a nice ocean breeze and nice seating.The pool is wonderful and plenty of beach chairs and toys. Gas grill and covered lower deck by the pool was great.Only disappointment was the 5 minute hike to the beach that included going down steps that was not easy for beach carts or for seniors. After the gazebo, there was a natural path that led you to sand dunes that you had to climb over to get to the beautiful private beach. Worth the trip but we thought the walk to the beach would be easier. The gated community is beautiful and private. We had a great family get together.

    Excellent property and very responsive property management. Very few issues were addressed promptly and correctly. Would stay at the same property without hesitation, thank you !

    We had a fantastic stay! The house is exactly as pictured. We cooked a lot during our stay and felt the kitchen was very well equipped with everything we needed. We stayed with a group of family, all adults, and thought this was the perfect place for a serene beach week. We loved cocktails in the tall Adirondack chairs on the deck overlooking the ocean. It is a long, hot walk to the beach, but you will have the whole beach to yourself once you get there. We also loved that there was a large umbrella hanging over the pool that allowed for lazy pool time with shade! Management was extremely responsive and helpful throughout our stay. Our one complaint was that the internet was very spotty and unreliable. Several of us had remote work meetings during our stay. We all ended up using our phones as hot spots because you could not get through an hour long meeting without the internet connection failing. Hopefully they will look into upgrading the internet, but if you are planning to work while you are there, be prepared for connection issues.

    Excellent property and excellent communication with the property manager. We enjoyed our stay and the location was one of the best in all our years of renting on the NC coast!

    Three generations of our family stayed at this lovely house on Holden Beach. Size, amenities, and location were all perfect!! The pool was great, and the walk to the beach was an adventure! We took advantage of the pickleball and tennis courts as well as the pool at the recreation center and all were very well maintained. Communication with management was quick and courteous. Although we’ve never booked the same beach house twice, we are planning a return trip to Genuine! It was terrific!
