About this Property

  • Private vacation home

Welcome to your new favorite vacation spot on the elegant marsh of Holden Beach. Crawdaddys freshly entered the rental market and the owners have purchased all new couches, beds, a dining room table that seats 10, outdoor furnishings (Carolina Casual & Polywood), and much more. Located on Ocean Blvd, you have the best of both worlds with partial ocean vistas out front and the serenity of the natural marsh in the back.

The beach access is conveniently located just east of the home between 567 OBW and 569 OBW, less than a 5-min. walk. A second full-size refrigerator is located on the ground level for your beach drinks, grille foods or to store your newly caught fish. Also extremely convenient, the Holden Beach General Store and Salt Peddler Resort Wear (including Ice Cream) are an simple 12-min. walk (.06 mile) where you can pick up that milk you just ran out of, a bathing suit, toy, etc.

Appreciate peaceful time on the screened back deck while watching the herons in the marsh or your morning coffee in the rockers on the covered front deck with vistas of, and breezes from, the shining Atlantic Ocean. Your outdoor options continue with the upstairs uncovered back deck where you can sip beverages while the sun sets at the pub-style table or relax in the loungers or porch swing. For the outdoor cooking enthusiast, a brand new Challenger Designs grille cabinet with a Napoleon piped gas (no running out of gas at this home) grille, along with dining for 10, is located under the home and positioned to appreciate all that this prime location has to offer.

The vistas do not stop outside! Inside, you will find an inverted floor plan and tons of windows and natural light throughout. The cavernous living room with a game table, kitchen, and dining areas features beautiful vistas from every angle to soak in the beauty of Holden Beach. The living room Intelligent TV also has cable and a Sony sound bar for your listening enjoyment. With 4 bedrooms (all also with Intelligent TVs & cable) to sleep 10 and 3.5 bathrooms (primary shower is a step in, 30” wide with a grab bar), this home has it all.

The home provides a 3-story residential passenger elevator (new in 2023) to make loading and unloading a breeze! No need to tote groceries and bags up the stairs. The elevator is wide enough (24.5”) for a standard rollator, which is a blessing for many grandparents. Please read and follow all posted rules. There is a enormous outside shower with hot and cold water. Parking onsite for 5 cars. New this year an EV charger was installed for your electric car. The fireplace shown in the photos is not operable.

Embrace the warmth of southern 'Hobbspitality'! Savor a welcome set of starter amenities, including one roll of paper towels, trash bags, laundry and dishwasher pods, dish soap, and a sponge. All bathrooms include one roll of toilet paper, trash bags, shampoo, conditioner, body wash and lotion, makeup wipes, and bar soap. Your beds are made with fresh linens and a lightweight blanket, so you can jump right into making memories rather than making beds! While we provide a lightweight blanket, we urge you to bring additional layers for your comfort.
This owner also provides bath towel sets (one bath towel, one hand towel, and one washcloth) per occupancy (10) for your convenience. Beach and pool towels are not supplied.

Absolutely no family pets nor smoking allowed on this property.

Our top Vacation rental home tips and tricks:

How to get the best value:

  • The earlier your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are reserved early. Booking your vacation home 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation rental.
  • Booking your Southport vacation rental in Fall or Spring is an excellent way to save money on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable homes.
  • Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner if your family qualifies for a price reduction.
  • Booking websites typically offer their guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
  • Look for your local Southport visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guide magazines contain offers and deals for nearby tours and attractions.

Finding the best rental in the Southport area:

  • Choose a designated group leader, select your vacation dates, and select a maximum budget.
  • Determine how many beds and the configuration your family needs. Crawdaddy's offers the best of both the marsh and ocean views, perfect for a relaxing vacation. has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
  • Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly available on booking pages. If they are not listed, contact the property manager before reserving the vacation property. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
  • Some rentals allow pets, and others don't. Allowable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask your host about pets before booking.
  • Visiting for a specific attraction or event? Use a map search to browse nearby properties.
  • Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental.

More considerations:

  • Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Add a note with the directions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
  • Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
  • Lock your rental property while you're away! Don't let crooks ruin your holiday.
  • To make certain no damages are attributed to your visit, note any problem areas upon your arrival. Make contact with the property manager immediately to record any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be very helpful.
  • Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are often a terrific resource to find the best local beaches.
  • Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can frequently help. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
  • Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all personal belongings. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
  • Go through the rental a final time and look for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, take video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
  • Did your family have a wonderful time? Most rental home management companies make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your property and/or property management company was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was imperfect and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.

Victory Beach Vacations

Visitors who are on the hunt for the postcard-perfect vacation rental in the heart of the Carolina Beach or Kure Beach area will find an enticing selection and plenty of friendly customer service when they rent through Victory Beach Vacations. Based in Carolina Beach in the coastal Cape Fear region, Victory Beach Vacations has more than 100 vacation rentals in all shapes and sizes to ensure that every vacationing family can find their dream home away from home on the beach.   When you book your Cape Fear getaway with Victory Beach Vacations, the fun doesn’t end when you leave the beach, it continues with an array of privately-owned properties outfitted with all of the amenities needed for a fabulous beach vacation.   Jenna Lanier, General Manager, explains that her family first opened the rental and property management business in 2002. At the forefront of Victory Beach operations is Lanier’s mother, Caroline Meeks. Meeks is both the Broker in Charge and co-owner with husband, Buck Meeks, who manages the Field Services team with Lanier’s husband, Scott.   For nearly 20 years, the Victory Beach team has worked tirelessly to establish a network of top-of-the-line rental properties for Cape Fear visitors to enjoy. “As far as our properties go,” explains Lanier, “they are all updated, well-furnished and appointed. “We have always performed post-cleaning inspections and since the pandemic, have put freshly laundered duvets over all of the comforters between rentals.”   Lanier emphasizes how important the guests experience is “we strive to give our guests a relaxing, stress free, memorable vacation.” This emphasis on customer service has led to Victory Beach Vacations having a 4.8 Google rating with over 300 reviews by happy owners and guests.In addition to Victory Beach’s superior sanitation practices, the company offers properties for every type of visitor. Choose from luxury oceanfront houses and condos to more reasonbly priced 2nd row properties with oceanviews. Many properties include pools and hot tubs as well, perfect for outdoor entertaining, and many are dog friendly.   Lanier also notes that all properties are within walking or driving distance to Pleasure Island’s main attractions – Carolina Beach and Kure Beach. The former, as described by Lanier, is the more commercialized of the two destinations and features a boardwalk, outdoor dining options and a plethora of weekly activities including fireworks, live music, amusement park pop-ups, and movies under the stars. Kure Beach offers a more residential feel with its fishing pier, intimate restaurants and family favorite, North Carolina Aquarium at Fort Fisher.More water fun awaits, too. “There is a harbor and a canal that feed into the intercoastal. We have several properties on the harbor so guests can bring their boat, kayak, [or jet ski] and travel between islands,” says Lanier.   A stay with Victory Beach Vacations is an annual pilgrimage for most. “A large percentage of guests are previous guests. Some even reserve the same property for the next year as they’re checking out,” Lanier says. “It’s almost like it’s their personal vacation home.”   Even before guests arrive at their vacation destination, the Victory Beach Vacations’ website greets them with a live beach cam and exquisite aerial footage of both Carolina and Kure Beaches.
