Host was easily accessible and very responsive! This home is in a great location, super close beach access with a very short walk! Anything that needed was at the home from beach chairs to a grill!
If you are looking for an adorable, clean, well stocked home to rent look no further! We loved having the canal view and only having a short walk to the beach. I would definitely stay here again!
Perfect for families! The house was clean, within walking distance of the beach, and offered so many items to help you enjoy at the beach! We loved all the beach gear available, and the detail/consideration of the host resulted in a perfect beach weekend!
Amazing visit! Well stocked kitchen and garage was filled with all the fun things! Loved the access to the kayaks. And the screened in porch was perfect. Short walk to the beach. Highly recommend!
We enjoyed a wonderful stay at Anchors Away! The home and amenities were fabulous! We really enjoyed the bikes and kayaks! The home is decorated beautifully and beds are very comfy!

Thanks Amanda. You were awesome guest. Thanks for taking care of the Kayaks and Canoe during you mini Tropical storm. Please come back anytime.
Our stay at Anchor's Away was perfect. It had exactly we were looking for- private dock with easy access to the intracoastal waterway, and short walk to the beach for the non-boating time. The house was very clean, well furnished, spacious, and comfortable. We'd definitely stay here again.
I’ve been in a dozen rentals at beaches and mountains and this was maybe our best. Clean, everything as it was stated. Well equipped with things that were useful. Close to the beach. Immediately felt like our home away from home. Would definitely stay again.
Great house and a great time. Usually most homes dont have a quarter of the kitchen amenities that this home came with which was amazing. We had a great time relaxing in the home and enjoyed sitting on the dock. Home also came with everything you need to enjoy a beach stay; chairs, kayaks, bikes, you name it !!! Will def look to stay here again when we come back to Holden.
Our stay at anchors away was fantastic. The house along with the entire property was very clean and everything was super easy to use! Rebecca was an excellent host and very responsive. I would definitely recommend staying here.

I'm glad you all had a safe and wonderful holiday.
This house was truly perfect for us. We had 4 adults and 2 children and it couldn’t have been more convenient. They had everything we needed and more. We loved having the bikes to ride every evening and all of the beach toys/chairs were so nice. We already booked for next year!
Perfect stay! It rained just about everyday but it didnt bother us. We would just look out at the canal or play games and puzzles. They had everything we needed there and never got bored. Would definitely recommend and hope to stay there the next time we come to holden beach!
Really enjoyed our stay--house was extremely well equipped with bikes, grill, beach equipment, with everything in good working order. House was very nice, everything for arrival and what was needed for departure was very well organized.
I could not say enough good things about this house! The house is beautiful, clean, organized and well stocked. The location was perfect as well. Our son enjoyed the short walk to the beach, fishing off the dock and riding bikes. We will definitely be renting again.
Very easy to book and excellent instructions getting in and checking out. The home is well equipped with anything you could possibly need. Wish we had more time to stay.....
Walking distance to general store and beach.
Will return for sure.

The cottage was very well equipped and beds were comfortable. Location to beach access was easy. Loved the view of the canal. Rebecca was very prompt in answering questions. We would definitely stay here again. Thanks Rebecca.

Thank you. We would loved to have you and your husband stay anytime.
We booked this place for only three nights and wish we could have stayed longer! It was perfect. The house was clean and well stocked. Love being on the canal but also only a 3 min walk to beach. Lots of fishing and kayaking and relaxing!
