Wonderful Beach Home

Everything you could want for a Holden Beach vacation! This home is beautifully decorated and has absolutely stunning views of the marsh from the kitchen and living room. They have many outdoor living spaces to enjoy and of course the pool. The bedrooms are all comfortable and well appointed. The home was spotless and the owners are very responsive and have a great attention for detail. We will come back for sure!

Beautiful Home!

We had a wonderful stay at Carolina Views! We have stayed at several rental properties on Holden Beach and this was one of the best! The house was beautiful. The outside seating area was very comfortable and well done. We had the pool heated and it was lovely. The attention to detail and the extra amenities that were provided was very much appreciated. We hope to return in the future.

Great house and location across the road from the ocean. Heated pool was a big plus as the temps were cooler than normal. Beautiful views of the marsh and intercoastal waterway from the very large kitchem window. The owner , Elizabeth, was wonderful to work with.

Holden Beach

We enjoyed staying at the Carolina Views home in Holden Beach. The home had breathtaking views of the marsh and was extremely clean and comfortable. The kitchen was fully stocked yet a short distance to a coffee shop and grocery store if need be. We had a minor issue with a fan when I checked in and the homeowner was responsive immediately and resolved our issue. The amount of space for my family of 6 was perfect. The beach was a quick stroll across the street and the private pool was an added perk after staying at the beach all day. I would highly recommend staying at this home for a relaxing vacation with family. Thank you, Elizabeth!

Amazing Marsh Views!!!

The house was clean and well stocked. We appreciated not having to bring our beach set-ups as chairs, a cart, and toys are provided. The outside areas and pool are great for hanging out. Also, plenty of seating everywhere inside and out! The layout is great for friends or a family with kids. The best part are the most amazing views from the 3rd floor! We enjoyed our stay, thanks for having us.

Had a shell of a time!

Loved this property. Elizabeth made sure we had everything we needed for our 2 month old. A high chair and pack and play. The views were amazing. Pictures don’t do it justice. Location was perfect. Just far enough away from the causeway and so close to the beach. 2 beach access but we used the private one mostly. Spent the afternoons at the pool and grilling out back. The rooms were gorgeous and the over all lay out was so cozy. Again the communication with Elizabeth was top notch and I loved every minute of our week vacation!!

We just got home from a wonderful stay at Carolina Views. The home was perfect, from the set up of the rooms,to the outdoor space and the pool! This home has everything you will need. Elizabeth was a great host, she touched base with us before check-in with instructions and a Welcome Guide,to suggestions for restaurants in the area. This was our first trip to the Holden Beach area and hopefully not our last! Thanks so much for sharing your home with us!

Amazing rental!!

We absolutely loved our stay here! We have stayed in a lot of rentals, but this one really checked every box. Loved the location that was a little farther down Holden Beach, just keep in mind that shops/restaurants will not be within walking distance. Being across the street from the beach and right in front of the marsh was exceptional. The home had lots of space but was cozy at the same time. The pool was great and so glad we paid extra to have it heated - well worth it! Lots of games for outside and inside too. We had absolutely no issues and love this home. We will definitely be back!!

Great Views!

The kitchen and carport views were our favorite. We loved walking and biking along the sidewalk. It was nice that there are no hotels or big commercial buildings. The beach area faces south into the ocean. You can walk in one direction to see the sunrise and the other to see the sunset. The kids loved playing in the carport area and sitting at the dining table watching the big screen television.

Second row heaven

We loved our stay! The house was perfect. It was clean, modern and spacious. The pool (which we choose to have heated) was amazing. I for sure recommend having it heated! The walk to the beach was not bad at all (we had a 5 year old, 2 year old and 2 18 month olds) and managed it just fine. The host are awesome and very responsive and accommodating. Did I mention the marsh views??? They were incredible and peaceful!

Relaxing Family Getaway

From the moment that we saw the house, we knew we were going to have a great week. The house was beautiful, spacious and comfortable and Elizabeth was a helpful and very responsive host. From the "Welcome Letter" to the letting us know the minute that the house was available for us to check in to having a coffee maker shipped right to our door first thing in the morning, she really cared about making sure that everything was perfect for us. Highlights for us included the pool, the easy proximity to the beach, the views of the marsh from the back deck, the large dining table for family games, the well stocked kitchen and the comfortable rooms. The kitchen was spacious and had everything we needed, from coffee to pots and pans to condiments and spices, and even containers to store leftovers. The pool was comfortable with nice floats to lay on and at least part of the pool area had sun all day long. We are so happy that we chose "Carolina Views" for our vacation.

Perfect getaway to close out Summer

Our families had a wonderful stay at Carolina Views over Labor Day weekend. The house was beautiful, updated, very clean and provided all the extra comforts and touches making our stay the perfect getaway. The house gets its name honestly because the views are amazing! Some of our favorite moments started and ended with those incredible views. The back opens up to sunsets and marsh views, while the front glistens ocean views and sunrises. Our host Elizabeth was attentive and helpful from the start providing recommendations and suggestions along with checking in to make sure we had everything we needed. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and are already making plans to return again soon! ~ The Thompson Family & The Light Family - Charlotte, NC

Wonderful family vacation at Carolina Views!

Elizabeth and her family have done a wonderful job updating and decorating this fabulous beach house. We had 4 adults and 2 small kids and could have easily been comfortable with a few more people. The beds were very comfortable and I especially loved the bunk room for the kids. My little ones had fun playing with the toys! The views were even better than I expected and the house was very conveniently located with a short, easy walk to the beach. The biggest highlight of the home is the brand new pool… it was perfect and the kids had so much fun swimming every day! Elizabeth was great to work with and always answered my questions right away both before and during the trip. We had a fantastic week at Holden Beach and plan to come back!

Our 38th visit to Holden Beach, NC. Family reunion

The house was light, bright, comfortable and fun!!! The views of deer, birds and fishermen in the marsh was stunning! The availability on games under deck was terrific plus a grille!! Just so happened Food Lion has a sale on rib eye and Holden Fish market had some beautiful scallops!!! Nice surf & turf!! The house was clean and full of windows which was great because it was cool inside but you felt outside! A plus- A POOL IS BEING ADDED! Missed it by one year. For us over 60, we are hoping for an elevator

Beautiful home

My book club enjoyed a wonderful fall weekend in your beautifully decorated home. We are all women of a certain age (70+) and appreciated the calming tasteful beach decor and the availability of every convenience in the kitchen. You are a wonderful host and have anticipated every need that your guests might have, from games, puzzles, toiletries, paper products, and hair dryers to outdoor games and comfortable seating in the breezy area under the house. We were able to use the heated pool, even in October, and the beach is just short walk across the street. The marsh views along the back of the house are incredible. Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us...when I woke up at home this morning, I wished I were still there!

Views for Days!

What can I say but WOW! What a gorgeous home with even more gorgeous views! I loved cooking dinner in the spacious (and exceptionally well equipped) kitchen while watching the sunset over the marsh. The beach itself is just a few steps away with private beach access and miles of expansive beach with fantastic shelling. While this home is a great jumping off point for day trips to neighboring islands, our favorite time was enjoying the ocean right there in Holden. I chose this home for a girls’ weekend and the layout was perfect, especially with each spacious bedroom having en suite bathrooms, making it perfect for friends, couples, or a large family. I’ve stayed in a lot of vacation rentals, and this one stands out for its cleanliness, space, amenities, gracious host, and amazing VIEWS! I don’t do many repeat trips, but I can say with certainty I will be back!

About the host

Hosted by Elizabeth Gerlach

Host profile image
Hi! We're Rob and Elizabeth Gerlach, new owners of Carolina Views. This is our first vacation rental and we are super excited to host you and your family. I (Elizabeth) grew up in the south and spent every summer vacation at a North Carolina beach with my family. I'm thrilled to have our own now and hope we can help you and your family create wonderful vacation memories. If there is anything you need, please reach out!

Why they chose this property

We chose Holden Beach because of its low-key, laid-back, not overly-commercialized community. Everything you need is right on or near the island. The beaches are beautiful and the water is nice! Also, we love all of the views at Holden.

What makes this property unique

Carolina Views is one of the more unique properties … simply because of its lot size and privacy since its surrounded by marshland.
