Wonderful Week With Family

We enjoyed a nice week with our immediate family in Barefeet Retreat. The house was just as described and met all our needs. It’s a great location, close to the bridge and restaurants, but far enough to be quiet on the street and beach.

The house was oceanfront with very short walk to the beach. It was spacious and a perfect house for our family to enjoy all that comes with staying at Holden Beach! It wasn't crowded, lots of shells and great place to relax and fish. We would definitely recommend this home!

Lovely Thanksgiving Home

Appreciated the thoughtful, extra details the host provided for our cold weather visit. Each bedroom was comfy, the common area held our group easily and the kitchen had everything we needed for cooking and grilling. Can’t wait to come back!

Fantastic 4th

Awesome place for family of four. Holden is a gem and the east end is quiet yet a bike ride to a couple restaurants and ice cream. House was super clean and perfect layout. All the tools required for cooking and grilling we supplied. Beds were comfy. Loved this place definitely will stay again if we can book it!

Summer fun

The house was great. It was clean and had all the supplies we needed, the location right on the water was great. We spent the days on the beach and evening on the porch listening to the waves. There are lots of restaurants nearby and if you want a day away from the beach Wilmington is close enough for an afternoon trip. Would definitely stay here again.

BareFeet Retreat Hit The Mark.

Bare Feet Retreat is a wonderful rental house. Plenty of room, well laid out and was nice and clean when we arrived. This is the 3rd time we have stayed there, and we find the care of the house very consistent, which is important for a rental. We booked again for the same week next year.

Life at the beach

Fourth time at this rental. The owner does a great job embellishing their home to make each stay a little different from the previous one. We haven’t found any need that hasn’t been addressed.
