Great location and views

Quaint & cozy with all the necessities and then some for an enjoyable stay. Beautiful view of the ocean and an easy walk to the beach. The owner was lovely and helped point out some local places to see and eat at.

Wind Therapy is an EXCELLENT vacation rental

My family and dogs loved every minute of staying in this wonderful rental house. The house is beautiful and beach access is great! The house had everything we needed with some extra thought put into it. We loved staying here and cannot wait to return!

Beautiful home, beautiful vacation!

We so enjoyed our stay. The house was perfect for our family. Our kids loved the bunk beds. The house was clean and well maintained and you can’t beat the views! We loved this house and plan to stay again.

Just what the doctor ordered !

I was looking for a place to stay for just me and my dog. This place has more than enough space inside, outside, top side or down below for friends or family. Even if it's just me and my dog, we'll be back!

Our Second year to stay 3months

Location is perfect! Wake up to the ocean every morning is great!Several things should be updated but it didn’t really detract from our stay there! Also, dog friendly as well as the beach.

This rental met all of our expectations. We had an issue with the sliding glass door and James was there that day to take care of it. Would recommend!

The best place to be at.

Amazing! Not only does Vacasa make sure it's clean but the owners take much pride in providing it top notch for your experience! The location, amenities and everything else was way more than enough. They had everything I forgot back home! I've never stayed in a place with such great comfort. What made the experience the best was knowing who we rented through and how everyone was so friendly, kind, helpful and down to earth. Huge shout out to the owners of the property!

Perfect setting

I loved the sounds and view of the ocean from my deck. House has everything you need. I love the fact that their is only one neighbor because the other side of house is the public beach parking. Also enjoyed all the beach walks to the intercoastal. Th owners we met, they are 2 amazing people. Super kind and go above and beyond for any needs. We were blessed to meet them.

Oceanfront but needs TLC

The ocean view is amazing from the whole back of the house. The outdoor deck area was nice and safe even for little dogs. Just be mindful of the birds flying overhead because the deck area seems to be a restroom target area when they are in flight. The kitchen was well stocked to allow for cooking in. However, that being said, the house definitely needs some TLC! This house has such potential. A few cans of paint and removing dated artwork would be a quick inexpensive fix. Overall, a great week at Holden Beach.

Amazing views

Amazing views, really beautiful location. We would stay here again if given the chance. The house was clean and comfortable, games provided, etc. Some dishes were not clean. The check in process and communiction with VACASA properties was a little confusing especially picking up the key after hours. Except for these 2 points we would give the place 5 stars.

Nice location but needs some work

Very nice location with great beach access. Beautiful views. House was clean and kitchen fully equipped. We would likely return if some things were addressed, e.g., 1. There are two showers but the one off the bedroom had a faulty spigot and it was impossible to regulate the water temperature, thus we couldn't use it. 2. The screen door needs to be reset so it closes properly. 3. One of the toilets would periodically keep running. Apparently there is a leak and/or other malfunction with the refill mechanism. 4. The beach/outdoor furniture needs placed. They were multiple chairs that were broken and unusable. 5. The storage area for the beach chairs, etc. was a mess. It should have been much better organized. The things were just piled in on top of each other. 6. We never were able to figure our how to turn the on the outdoor lights under the house. It would have been nice to been able to use them. 7. Better instructions should have been provided for the TV. We figured it out but it took awhile.

Deceived sleeps 5 NOT 7!

Fantastic beach access and view. Ummm but let me share the rest! Outdated! Counters cracked and chipped. Oven allows heat to escape inside! Get a new oven! Floors sinking in kitchen and master bedroom. Master bed is horrific - had to purchase a $120.00 3” bed topper to sleep! Master toilet wasn’t secure to the floor! The kitchen sink faucet wobbled and looked like a 4 yo installed it. There is filtered water but the faucet for that was hanging loose as well. Washing machine broke 1 day in. No washer the entire week! Spent 1/2 a day of MY VACATION TIME in Shalotte at the laundry mat 👎 No blinds in main living area windows- thermostat stayed 80 inside from about 12pm - 9pm!!! HOT Left 2 days early because this house is just not comfortable! Take care of your property - renters beware!!! This vacation was horrible! I feel like I was completely mislead and taken advantage of. I get to take ONE vacation a year and thank god for the view and access - that’s the only thing that is wonderful about this property! Zero stars!

It was okay.

This is a charming house that would benefit from a little TLC. It was well stocked with all the necessities one could need for their stay. And all appliances were in good, working order. First impression of the house was that it was clean; however, upon further inspection, the shower head in the owner’s suite was covered in black mold. I ended up running to the dollar store for some spray bleach to remedy the situation. While there, I picked up an inexpensive bathroom rug, as one was not provided. As an older person, I feel neither comfortable nor secure stepping onto a bath towel as this is a potential fall hazard. There were several places in the flooring, particularly in the kitchen area, that felt spongy under foot, as if perhaps the subfloor was rotting? The kitchen counter was in poor repair and would benefit from an update. The beds were not comfortable and we ended up purchasing mattress toppers in an attempt to get a better night sleep. The rooms facing the side of the house would benefit from some blackout curtains as the light from the street lamps are not sufficiently blocked by the blinds. We were not provided keys to the guest storage and were unable to access beach chairs during our stay. Overall, it’s a decent house with a wonderful location & beautiful views. However, without some updates it is unlikely that I would book this house again.

Great cottage!

Anchors Away had everything we needed. We were pleasantly surprised by the great collection of sand toys for the children, beach chairs, Scrabble and other games and puzzles, and good books for all ages. It's a simple cottage, perfect for relaxing at the beach. It was a good place for our two dogs. The gate on the porch was helpful for both children and dogs. We appreciated being near the East end with easy access to the more remote end of the island. There were some cars parked nearby for the day, but it's a big beach and we were not crowded or disturbed at all. We hope to return to Anchors Away!
