Marker 57 - 5 Bedroom 4.5 Bath House, Holden Beach, Walk to Beach, On Intracoastal Waterway, Pool, Dock, Sleeps12

****New to the Rental Market****

****Please Note: There is a floating dock, but be aware that the waves can be huge and the water depth can get less than two feet deep at low tide. The float moves generously with the waves. Some boats will handle the waves okay with proper spring lines and fenders. Others should consider it too risky.****

Holden Beach home “Marker 57” is located on the Intercoastal Waterway with its own dock, pool, and a short approximate 5-min. breathtaking walk along the marsh to the beach and General Store. Being on the actual ICW is a lot different from a canal home, which is more typical. Marker 57 offers wide sweeping vistas of water, marsh, and nature, instead of feeling so surrounded by other homes. It offers a front row seat to watch the yachts traveling by and other boaters having fun.

The dock has a gazebo with plenty of seating, a sink, electricity, and lighting. Thoughtful owners have supplied kayaks, as this is a great place to use them! The owners also say that the fishing has proven to be superb. Due to the East/West orientation of the waterway here, Marker 57 gets both sunrise and sunset vistas that can be spectacular! Dolphins can often be seen cruising by on a regular basis.

The 50-acre marsh next to the home is a great natural asset for Marker 57. There is a amazing tidal creek that curves right in front of the home and right beside the home. It provides a lot of bait for fishing and offers a fun, 1-mile round-trip around an island and into the waterway for kayaks.

The pool adds tons of fun to Marker 57. It is a nice 13x26 size and overlooks the marsh. The pool can be heated (for an additional fee) if you choose. The owner has placed regulation marks on the pool deck and supplied a Corn Hole game set for you to savor. The pool area also has its own hot and cold outdoor shower.

A Grandiose Central Hang-Out has been created on the ground level in the garage. If it is really hot or rainy, but you still want to be outside, this is the place to be! It’s striking how nice this area can be when all three bay doors are open to the view of the marsh and creek! Open the front and back doors as well and let the breeze come through. In addition to room for two cars, there is a huge sitting area with TV and a Ping-Pong area. There is a second laundry room with refrigerator and freezer, microwave, and air fryer, as well as a full bathroom with sizable utility sink and bathtub. This area is called “Grand Central” due to its location between the dock and pool, people coming and going to the beach, and people in and out of the home. This is a great part of Marker 57.

Marker 57 has 5 bedrooms including, the bunk room. All 5 bedrooms have enormous TVs, gorgeous vistas, and direct access to the outside porches. 2 bedrooms have private full baths. 2 bedrooms have a shared full bath. There is a half bath in the hall near the bunk room. Plus, the full bath on the ground level. There is a tankless gas water heater that is designed to provide countless hot water for all 5 showers at the same time.

Tips for getting the best Holden Beach vacation home experience:

When to visit Holden Beach & When to book:

• The earlier your group can reserve a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The best properties are reserved early. Booking your vacation home six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation rental.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Holden Beach. To find the most suitable rental home for your budget, we highly recommend booking in the Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at Wrightsville Beach restaurants, tours, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wrightsville Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Property managers sometimes offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Ask your property manager if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer customers an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.
• Find a copy of your local Wrightsville Beach visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitors guide magazines have money saving offers on nearby tours and attractions.

Planning and picking a perfectrental home:

• Select dates and spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. 5BR/4.5 BA House,Holden Beach,Walk to Beach,On ICW, Pool, Dock, Sleeps12 has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Wrightsville Beach rental home search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is usually accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, email or call the host before you reserve your rental. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches.
• Some rentals allow pets, and others do not. Allowable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the property management company about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
• Visiting for a single attraction? If so, use a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. .

More considerations:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Add a note with the instructions to your phone, and take a printed backup.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, intercom or thermostat. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents quite a few difficulties.
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental while you are out, just like you would at home.
• To make certain damages aren't attributed to your family's visit, inspect the property for any problem areas during arrival. Contact the property manager immediately to document your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are an excellent source for finding the best local beaches and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Re-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings on check-out day. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did you have a excellent stay? Many rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property management company was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was out of order and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
