Welcome to your new favorite vacation spot on the handsome marsh of Holden Beach. Crawdaddys newly entered the rental market and the owners have purchased all new couches, beds, a dining room table that seats 10, outdoor furnishings (Carolina Casual & Polywood), and much more. Located on Ocean Blvd, you have the best of both worlds with partial ocean vistas out front and the serenity of the natural marsh in the back.

The beach access is conveniently located just east of the home between 567 OBW and 569 OBW, less than a 5-min. walk. A second full-size refrigerator is located on the ground level for your beach drinks, grille foods or to store your newly caught fish. Also extremely convenient, the Holden Beach General Store and Salt Peddler Resort Wear (including Ice Cream) are an simple 12-min. walk (.06 mile) where you can pick up that milk you just ran out of, a bathing suit, toy, etc.

Appreciate peaceful time on the screened back deck while watching the herons in the marsh or your morning coffee in the rockers on the covered front deck with vistas of, and breezes from, the shining Atlantic Ocean. Your outdoor options continue with the upstairs uncovered back deck where you can sip beverages while the sun sets at the pub-style table or relax in the loungers or porch swing. For the outdoor cooking enthusiast, a brand new Challenger Designs grille cabinet with a Napoleon piped gas (no running out of gas at this home) grille, along with dining for 10, is located under the home and positioned to appreciate all that this prime location has to offer.

The vistas do not stop outside! Inside, you will find an inverted floor plan and tons of windows and natural light throughout. The roomy living room with a game table, kitchen, and dining areas features gorgeous vistas from every angle to soak in the beauty of Holden Beach. The living room Intelligent TV also has cable and a Sony sound bar for your listening enjoyment. With 4 bedrooms (all also with Intelligent TVs & cable) to sleep 10 and 3.5 bathrooms (primary shower is a step in, 30” wide with a grab bar), this home has it all.

The home provides a 3-story residential passenger elevator (new in 2023) to make loading and unloading a breeze! No need to tote groceries and bags up the stairs. The elevator is wide enough (24.5”) for a standard rollator, which is a blessing for many grandparents. Please read and follow all posted rules.

Tips for getting the best rental experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Booking a rental in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is our best tip for saving money on your vacation home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Brunswick area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host if your group qualifies for a special rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer customers an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Brunswick area area travel guides which often include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Choosing the best vacation home in the Brunswick area area:

• Start by choosing the best vacation week and a spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your group requires. Crawdaddy's offers the best of both the marsh and ocean views, perfect for a relaxing vacation. has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is often accessible online. If not, email or call the host before you reserve the vacation property. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches.
• If there's a specific Brunswick area destination you long to visit, browse rentals that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement! Pet fees or costs might be applied to your agreement.

Tips for your stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the directions to your phone.
• To ensure that damages are not attributed to your family's visit, make note of any problem areas during arrival. message the host right away to report any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, A/V setup or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent a lot of problems.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are a fantastic source for finding the best local spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Keep your rental home locked while you're gone! Don't let thieves ruin your vacation.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the property to make sure you've collected all of your things. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did you have a great vacation? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or host was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was out of order and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
