About the neighborhood

Welcome to the quiet, laid-back charm of Holden Beach — one of North Carolina’s most peaceful barrier islands. Starfish Drive sits in a canal-front neighborhood with direct access to the Intracoastal Waterway, making it perfect for boating, kayaking, and paddleboarding. You’re just a short walk or bike ride to the wide sandy shoreline, where mornings start with shell hunting and evenings end with glowing coastal sunsets. The island is primarily residential, so it feels relaxed and uncrowded — ideal for families looking to truly unplug. Nearby, you’ll find: - Local seafood restaurants and waterfront dining - Ice cream shops and beach boutiques - Fishing charters and boat rentals - Mini golf and casual family activities For bigger attractions, Myrtle Beach is about an hour away for boardwalk fun, shopping, and nightlife.

Getting around

Holden Beach is easy and low-key: - Car recommended for groceries and exploring nearby towns - Biking is popular and easy around the island - Many beach accesses are within walking distance - If you have a boat — you’ll love the direct canal access The closest major airports are: - Myrtle Beach International Airport (about 1 hour) - Wilmington International Airport (about 1 hour) This is the kind of place where you park the car, grab a bike or a paddle, and let the beach schedule take over. Easy, breezy, and exactly what a coastal getaway should feel like.
