Super Colorful Beach Cottage with Outdoor Shower, Free WiFi & Large Deck — Easy Walk to the Beach
This adorable, super-colorful two-bedroom beach cottage is full of personality. Every room is a different color, giving the home a fun, cheerful vibe that instantly feels like vacation. Bright, cozy, and thoughtfully set up, it’s perfect for families looking for an easy, relaxed beach stay.
The location is truly the sweet spot — perfectly situated halfway between the sound and the ocean. The beach access is so close that most guests don’t even bring a wagon — just grab a towel and go. The house has 2 beach chairs and 3 beach towels for your use.
After a day on the sand, rinse off in the enclosed outdoor shower, framed by cedar plank louvers for privacy and a classic coastal feel. Enjoy downtime in the comfortable living room with streaming TV, cook meals together in the well-equipped kitchen with stainless steel appliances, or gather around the dining table for a casual family meal. Step out onto the large deck to relax with a drink, feel the coastal breeze, and enjoy the soft colors of a Holden Beach sunset.
Set on a quiet street, close to the beach, and full of charm, this is the kind of place guests love returning to year after year.

About the neighborhood
Your beach cottage sits in one of Holden Beach’s quiet, family-oriented neighborhoods — far enough down the island that traffic is minimal and kids can confidently walk around the street without an adult right beside them. This part of the island has a close-knit, mostly permanent community of residents who keep a friendly, watchful eye on the neighborhood.
Sunshine Lane is just a short walk to the ocean via a private boarded beach walk, and from the front porch you can glimpse both the sound and the Atlantic on clear days. Because Holden Beach faces south, winter months offer the rare chance to see both sunrise and sunset over the ocean — one of the unique natural features of this part of the North Carolina coast.
For nature lovers, this end of the island is a peaceful stretch of sand that doubles as a great turtle-nesting area during the season — a truly special part of this North Carolina barrier island experience.
It’s a perfect balance: close enough for a quick sandy stroll to the ocean, but quiet enough to feel like your own slice of coastal paradise.

Getting around
Getting Around
A car is handy here since you’re on an island, but once you’re here, Holden Beach is wonderfully walkable and bike-friendly. The island stretches about 8 miles long, with a paved sidewalk and bike lane that runs the full length along Ocean Boulevard — perfect for walking, biking, or even rollerblading without worrying about busy streets.

+1
You’re just a short walk from your private beach access, and many guests choose bikes over wagons for quick trips to the General Store, ice cream shops, or beach bike rides up and down the island. And because you’re toward the quieter end of the island, local traffic stays light, giving a real relaxed “island” feel.
Parking
You can easily park up to four vehicles under the house, and there’s even more space on the gravel driveway if cars are smaller. Plenty of room for friends and family to pull in without crowding.
