Relaxation awaits you at Wind Beneath My Wings, a charmingly updated original Holden Beach oceanfront duplex cottage. Here on the upper level you’ll find 3 bedrooms, two full baths, 4 flatscreen tv’s with expanded cable, DVD player, ceiling fans in every room, and hardwood floors. All this is complimented by hand-rubbed whitewashed tongue and groove walls. The kitchen features an eat-in bar, and opens into a bright and cheery great room, perfect for gathering the family ‘round for an evening of games or watching a favorite movie.
The Oceanside sunporch, furnished with rocking chairs, is THE place to catch the ocean breezes, taste the salt air, and delight in the antics of children playing in the ocean swells. There’s even a picnic table on the sunporch, a favorite place to enjoy lunchtime treats! This extra outdoor living space will greatly enhance your spring and autumn enjoyment of the beach.
Rainy day? No problem.... Curl up on the sunporch with a good book and cozy blanket. Let the sounds of the ocean wash over you. A bit cool? Lower the windows and let the sun's rays warm your heart as you watch the pelicans soar along the ocean shore. And if you want a little quieter experience, check out the seating on the streetside porch. It features unobstructed views of the salt marsh beyond, and of the gorgeous sunsets over the intracoastal waterway.

Why Purchased: We purchased this home when our children were young. We used the 2 bedroom downstairs ourselves and rented the 3 bedroom upper unit. We did not want to be in our renter's way, or make them overly aware of us. So we put in separate boardwalks, separate showers on each boardwalk, separate bench seating on the deck, and we insulated heavily between the floors. Our children grew up and had children of their own. We'd outgrown our cozy 2 bedroom unit. We then put in a spiral staircase that connects the two units, so it can be used as one 5 bedroom home with two living areas and two kitchens during the peak summer season when large combined families vacation together. We have a lock out door and insulation for the stairwell that we put in place during the spring and autumn. We've rented our lower unit and the upper unit simultaneously to unrelated parties for many years now. We have no problems or complaints about this arrangement from our renters who choose our home. Offering both units for rent simultaneously allows us to price very competitively. The CarolinaVacationHomeRentals listing number for the 2 bedroom 1 bath lower unit is 252. The listing number for the whole house (5 bedroom 3 bath, 2 kitchens, 2 living areas) is 250
About Holden Beach
Welcome to Holden Beach, North Carolina, where family values and old fashioned fun are still a part of your vacation. Holden Beach has a very small commercial area on the island. That point is considered by many to be a key reason to keep them coming back year after year. While there are limited commercial establishments on the island, everything one could desire is located within a short driving distance.
The causeway leading to the island contains numerous specialty stores and shops, and the Town of Shallotte just 10 minutes away has several chain grocery and department stores that provide all the necessities. Wilmington and Myrtle Beach are only 35-45 minutes away and if you can’t find what you’re looking for there, it doesn't exist.
There are over 125 superb golf courses within a one-hour drive from Holden Beach. Courses range from very challenging to user-friendly for golfers who don’t always hit the ball where they want it to go. The Myrtle Beach area is perhaps the best region in the United States to find a course just right. Seasonal rates vary.
Boating, fishing and hiking the island are very popular activities. Shell hunters can find so many that the kids will fill up the car when they return home. The island is a sea turtle habitat and during the hatching season (May to October) those who don’t mind staying up late at night can witness one of nature’s most interesting pleasures – watching hundreds of small sea turtles "boil’ out of the sand and marching to the ocean.
There is no other North Carolina barrier island like Holden Beach. If you're looking for low commercial impact, and a wholesome family-oriented atmosphere, you have come to the right place.

Stayed October, 2022
My wife and I have spent a week in October in Wind Beneath my Wings during each of the past three years. Our visits have been "working holidays" where we work quite hard (remotely, obviously), but not as hard as when we are home and where we enjoy the chance to take take frequent walks on the beach and even swim. Holden Beach is a really pleasant and quiet barrier island-- not nearly as crowded as some of the neighboring islands-- a very peaceful atmosphere. I reviewed this place three years ago after our first visit. I here give an updated review in light of upgrades to this rental that were completed earlier this year (2022). The fact that we have chosen this unit three years in a row reflects features that we find particularly appealing about this beachfront rental. First, it has a great windowed/screened-in porch facing the ocean. Not only do we take our meals out there, but my wife sets up her computer out there and works about 8 hours a day there, enjoying the sunlight and proximity to the ocean. By opening or closing the windows it is possible to maintain a comfortable temperature there even in late October. Second, this rental has great internet and the TVs work well and are easy to control. Third, we love the wooden floors in the living room and bedrooms. We also like the kitchen. When we have visited, we have never had been more than 3 people, but the layout of the three bedrooms and the combined kitchen/dining room/family room space is such that I estimate it could accommodate up to 7, comfortably. New features as of 2022 include interior upgrades (one bathroom redone, new kitchen counter, and new kitchen sink) as well a new and much-expanded front deck and stairway and a ground-level heated swimming pool (not large, but a really nice 5 foot deep pool with a deck and fence around it-- we really enjoyed it). The owners (Bill and Beth DuVall) are extremely communicative and responsive, it has been a stress-free pleasure renting from them. Plenty of parking space. The lower unit was not occupied this year when we visited, but it has been occupied in previous years and there was no sense that there were any problems with privacy-- hardly noticed anyone was down there.

Truthfully, I worry that if I (and everyone else) continue to leave 5 star reviews that this place will book up so far in advance by repeat "stayers" like us that eventually it'll be super hard to grab a week of beach time... But it's true, if you're looking for a cozy family ocean front house, this is the one to visit. This was our second stay and we're hoping to book two more weeks next year. The owners are great, the kitchen is big enough and equipped enough with a good layout to actually cook meals if you're so inclined especially considering the fresh fish market a 5 minute drive away.

The hosts of this wonderful house/getaway have thought of everything to make our stay enjoyable, including local recommendations! Questions were answered immediately. Oceanfront location was perfect.
