K/Q/Q/2Twins
From Holden Beach Town Hall:
The Beach Strand: (Use CAMA marked public access points unless you are entitled to use designated private walkways to the beach as a rental customer or property owner.) 1. The line of sand dunes with fragile beach vegetation along the south side of Ocean Boulevard provides protection from storms. Please do not walk over the dunes to the ocean. Use the wooden walkways and ramps. Public walkways are marked with a CAMA sign. Others are private. Collect sea shells and other “beach treasures” at your leisure. 2. Only emergency and official Town Staff vehicles are allowed to drive on the beach. 3. There are no lifeguards when swimming. RIP TIDES can kill you. Check with Town Hall (842-6488) to see if RIP TIDES are in present. If you get caught in a rip tide pulling you away from shore, swim parallel to the shoreline until you get out of the current — do not try to swim against the current back to shore. 4. A popular place to “fish, wade, and shell” is at the extreme east end of the island along McCray Street . Be aware there is dangerous underwater debris in that area that should be avoided at periods of high tide — at low tide you can see it. The Town checks the beach daily, if dangerous debris is noticed, call Town Hall (842-6488). 5. Jet Skis should only be operated outside 500 feet from shore. Do not ride skis onto the beach strand. Town Courtesy Patrol personnel ride the beach during the summer to monitor this activity. 6. Alcoholic beverages are not allowed anywhere on the beach strand — or in any public place. 7. Trash receptacles are placed along the beach for your convenience, please do not litter. 8. Pets are not allowed on the beach from May 20 to September 10, except between 5 P.M. and 9 A.M. daily. Pets must be on a leash at all times on the island. 9. No surfboard shall be carried, pushed, wheeled, ridden or otherwise used on the beach strand and/or adjacent ocean waters within 500 feet of any fishing pier located on or adjacent to property within Town limits. 10. It is unlawful to dig into the sand on any part of the beach strand greater than 12 inches deep, without having a responsible person attending the area. Prior to leaving the area, any hole greater than 12 inches deep shall be filled to be level with the surrounding area, leaving the area in the same general condition in which it was found. 11. Beginning April 23, 2011, all unattended beach equipment must be removed from the beach by its owner or permitted user on a daily basis between the hours of 6PM and 7AM. Click here to read the ordinance with specific details. Boating & Fishing: (Boat ramps are located under and near the bridge.) 1. If you fish in the surf, please be courteous to those swimming and relaxing nearby. 2. Effective January 1, 2007, a North Carolina Coastal Recreational Fishing License is required. Licenses are available from any DMF office, WRC license agents (which includes most Wal-Mart stores), online at WRC’s website, www.ncwildlife.org or by calling 888-248-6834. 2. You may not land your powered boat anywhere along the oceanfront. Sail boards and small sail boats may temporarily land along the beach. Be careful of swimmers. 3. Observe NO WAKE zones along the Intracoastal Waterway. Island Wide Ordinances: ( Note posted speed limit signs) 1. No Parking on Ocean Boulevard or McCray Street, except for the northern end of McCray Street east of Dunescape Drive. Observe signs for exact parking prohibitions. The largest public parking lot is under the bridge. Public Restrooms are located there as well. An unloading and pedestrian “drop-off” point is located at the bridgehead west of Cap‘t Pete‘s Apartments. Park all along Brunswick Avenue East and West. Do not block driveways or fire hydrants. 2. Bikes, roller-blades and pedestrians please share the sidewalk. No roller-blades on Ocean Boulevard. 3. FIREWORKS (except for sparklers) are not allowed on the island. They will be confiscated by the Police if found. Please see the holden beach website: https://holdenbeachnc.com/holden-beach-rules-and-regulations/ Take care of the turtles. At night before retiring, turn off all lights that face the ocean, including carports, and, if staying up late, close blinds and draperies in oceanfront rooms between May 1st and October 31st. Visit http://www.hbturtlewatch.org to learn more of this exciting event that you may encounter.
From the owners:
Life is a Beach. The Beach is a Beach. The house is not the beach :-)
Please wash off the sand and dump the shells before entering the home. Plumbing may handle a little bit of sand down a drain, but can quickly clog if abused. Be safe and shake the sand out of clothes and towels before washing. Please don't re-decorate or re-arrange furniture. If the decorum or nature of the furnishings is not compatible with your stay, please contact the owner. We are happy to discuss potential options of how to improve your stay. The owners have brought their dogs to the home during renovation. Pets were never allowed on any furniture nor upstairs. Although this is not a pet-friendly home for renters, and no pets will be brought to the home during peak season, the owner reserves the right to bring their pets to the home during the off season; they are never allowed up stairs or on any furniture at any time, in any way... they're rather lazy loungers. However, if you or someone in your party have had severe allergies to pets, you may want to reconsider SeaDated.

An Ocean Breeze Puts the Mind at Ease

Sometimes we seek adventure vacations and sometimes we seek rest. It was rest and peace we were seeking, and "Seadated" and its owner, Chad, didn't disappoint. The lovely cottage, with room for a big family, was perfectly cozy for two and spotlessly clean! Best of all, it was only a stone's throw from the ocean, perfect for accessing the beach for sunrise walks, shell seeking, and sunset toasts or just sitting inside staring at the waves and listening to the surf. The amenities and special touches felt like gifts from a friend. The kitchen was lovely to cook in when we weren't going out to eat at some of the yummy restaurants recommended by Chad. The beds were comfy, the kitchen table by the window was a perfect place to eat or work a puzzle. The comfy couch and 2 swivel chairs by the windows were the idea places to read, watch for dolphins, chat, or take a little snooze by the fireplace. I especially enjoyed rolling out of bed, making coffee in the bedroom Keurig, and bundling up on the master deck, overlooking the ocean, waiting for the sun. We talked to Chad several times during our stay, who was ALWAYS helpful, resourceful, kind, and timely! We now refer to him as our new friend. We left refreshed and rejuvenated, and can't wait for next NEXT year for TWO weeks!

Thanksgiving at the Beach

We had a wonderful family Thanksgiving at this house. It had a well stocked kitchen so it was easy to make a great meal. The family room was really fun and comfortable with the couch that reclines and big screen tv. To top it off the host was very responsive and super nice! We would definitely recommend this house and we hope to book it again soon!

Perfect house at Holden!

We loved our stay in this very well-equipped and beautiful home! The view from the den is all beach and ocean. The house is decorated so nicely and the furniture is very comfortable. The deck is large and has plenty of seating for everyone. A huge bonus for us was all the beach chairs they provide, these are pricey to buy or even rent. The owner responded quickly to my questions and is super nice. I highly recommend this home, you’ll love it!!

Perfect Fall Getaway

We had a wonderful weekend getaway at SEADATED. The house was beautiful and efficiently laid out so that we never felt like we were on top of each other. I can’t say enough about the amazing views, comfortable beds and beautiful kitchen space. An added bonus was being within walking distance of restaurants. The living room had an nice tv set up which saved me since I was in a little trouble for scheduling this trip during the World Series! This house absolutely has it all.

Your vacation home was perfect for our group. Spaces were adequate. Direct access to the beach was wonderful. Lots of deck space and chairs. Kitchen is very thoroughly appointed; strong blender, loved the griddle, kitchenaid mixer was a nice surprise and I was most grateful for it.

About the host

Hosted by Chad Ragains

Host profile image
After vacationing at Holden several times per year for the past 15 years, we finally pulled the trigger and bought this little slice of heaven.
We spent many months renovating, and rebuilding much of the home which had been stuck in the 1980s. New/upgraded stainless appliances, quartz countertops, new cabinets, sectional, bedding, furniture, LED lighting, LED smart TVs throughout, and so much more!
We've made this home exactly what we would want if we were the renters... and then kicked it up a few notches. I am sure that you'll love all that it has to offer!

Why they chose this property

They say that the most important things about a property are Location, Location, Location. Well, if an oceanfront home within walking distance to shops, restaurants and fishing isn't enough, then come on out and enjoy... relaxing! Wake up to the waves, peacefully read a book on the upper balcony and enjoy some summer thunderstorms from the unobstructed indoor views!
During the winter months, you'll wake up to ocean sunrises and enjoy dinner as the sun sets over the water.

What makes this property unique

SeaDated is located 45-50 min from either Wilmington or Myrtle Beach. The local small town Shallotte is 15 min out with fast food, Walmart, Hardware, tap room, lots of local shops/businesses, etc. It's only a 5 min drive (just over the bridge) from the nearest grocery store, beach shopping, bait/tackle, sandwich shops, etc. Take a 1/3-1/2 mile stroll down the street (back toward the bridge) to a couple of our favorite island/local owned restaurants, slushy/ice cream, coffee shops/etc. I highly recommend these over driving to a chain restaurant. “Activities” aren’t typical high-profile Florida, California, Myrtle or “boardwalk” style. Here on Holden, you'll recharge while beach-sitting, porch-sipping, bike-cruising, sunrise-walking, shell-seeking, boogie-boarding (surfing if you’re lucky), paddle-boarding... I could go on.
Come on out and find your new favorite vacation spot!
