We loved our stay at Hollis house! The home was the perfect size for a family of 5 and very affordable considering the location. We enjoyed the big front porch and have a washer and dryer on site was very convenient. Beach access is about 3 blocks down the street so bring a wagon if you have small ones with lots of beach toys! The beaches are beautiful and even in the middle of July we’re never crowded. The home is about a 15 minute walk away from the boardwalk & arcade, also very convenient. We will absolutely be coming back next year! The only this I have is the house might need a good deep cleaning. Some sand in the pull out couches and left over pet hair from previous renters I found when I was sweeping up after our family. Definitely things that happen at a pet friendly Beach residence.

- Kayla

Thank you for your feedback about your stay at Hollis House, Kayla! It is great to hear that the home was the perfect size for your family and that you enjoyed the big front porch and location. I wish you had let us know during your stay about the cleanliness issues, as we would have been happy to send the cleaners back. I am sorry about that! We look forward to welcoming you back next year! Thank you again for choosing us for your beach getaway.

Hollis house was a great stay! Clean, great proximity to Carolina beach and boardwalk. The house had everything we needed. Front porch was huge and a great place to hang out on a rainy morning!

This was an amazing beach house to vacation in with kids. The front porch is a great place to gather and share fun times. All appliances worked as expected (kitchen as well as washer and dryer). Plenty of water hoses to rinse off from after beach trips. Rinsing off the salt from chairs and letting them dry after beach trips saves beach chairs from rusting quickly. The chairs are rusting out but still have some more use left in them. A broom and dust pan was available to sweep out sand in the house daily. Kitchen is stocked with anything you would need, including a pizza cuter and pizza pan. House was abundantly stocked with hand soap, bath towels and hand towels. Close proximity of neighboring vacationers so, blinds were very helpful. Constant communication with the itrip family business was comforting. They kept asking if I was enjoying my trip and if I needed anything. Communication was superb! We took care of their property as they took care of us. Yard work was done, house was very clean upon arrival and we did daily up keep to keep things tidy and the floors swept. Front porch can get sandy and the rug as well. Less tracking sand into the house with the many little feet we had here just by cleaning of the porch 1 time during the week. An occasional sweep or spray down makes the porch look and feel fresh. Overall, the Hollis House is an amazing summer time beach house to stay in. The itrip family make their guest feel like royalty! Thank you itrip for your hospitality, as it was comforting for a mom vacationing with 3 kids knowing I had someone to call, should something happen or go wrong with the home.

We three essential workers traveled to Hollis House for a much needed break during Covid times. This house gave us a much needed mid week break to decompress over such stressful days. The porch is SO NICE!____Pros:____ 5-7 minute walk from the beach on a quiet road__ Good AC__ Comfortable Beds__ Well stocked kitchen with pans, toaster, microwave utensils (would've been nice to have basics like sugar and pepper but they weren't promised so that's ok)__ Plenty of room to park. The city is charging for parking so leaving our cars and walking or biking was a great option__ Great communication from rental people__ less than a mile to Britt's Donuts and Crush

This little gem is not fancy but very clean and the kitchen is stocked for cooking. A few bigger pans would have been nice for family meals.

I will definitely look to stay here again.

We immensely enjoyed the Hollis house! It was very comforting. We had everything we needed. Even doggie bags to clean up after the dog!! The neighbors are quiet and neighborly. The dishwasher was broken so they graciously provided paper plates, cups and utensils for us!! Never ran out of towels etc. The front porch is the place to be, we had breakfast, lunch and dinner on the picnic table. This home is good for any group. Blue, our dog, loved watching the people and doggies walking by from the front porch.

This was my second trip to Hollis House and I’m returning again in May 2021. Steps to the beach, always spotless and most importantly pet-friendly. My little slice of heaven! I am a big walker and almost everything is accessible by foot or bike. The boardwalk is a half mile away and the lake park across the main road is beautiful with a 6/10 mile paved path. Don’t miss the market there on Saturdays.

If you're looking for a standard beach house in a great location, this is your spot. Public access a 5 minute walk away and a few fun restaurants and bars nearby. You could definitely park your car and enjoy a week here without using it. Our only negative was finding a few dirty dishes put away in the cabinet when we arrived - otherwise, all good.

- Matthew

Matthew, thank you for your review of Hollis House! We are happy you thought the location was great, having the beach and restaurants nearby. We apologize for the dirty dishes when you arrived.

Hollis House was perfect for us! Just what I expected out of a clean, accommodating, pet friendly “home-a way from home” ☺️ Greg and Elisa were so quick to respond & just lovely to converse with! We were close to other family but in the perfect location period! My grandmother had a little problem walking to the beach! Yay!! The dogs had the back yard to play and we were so close to the beach for some walks there! Hollis house was equipped with everything you need to get started for your trip which made things so much smoother. We were even granted early check-in without asking for it! Definitely try and book here again!

For years our family has stayed in the condos next to the Hollis House. This year, we decided to try the Hollis House, and found it to be a superb option. We took 5 people with us, our family of four with children aged 6 and 9. The house is located only about 2/3 of a mile from the boardwalk, placing it within walking distance of many restaurants and attractions in Carolina Beach. The house was very spacious for our group, and the front porch is amazing. We hosted a group of 17 (the rest of our family stayed next door) for a seafood boil one evening and never felt cramped. In regard to the house, it was very clean, well stocked with serviceable dishes and utensils in the kitchen, everything you could ask for for a little beach getaway. There is even a washer and dryer in the storage room under the house that will allow you to pack a little lighter, offers a great place to securely store your beach gear. The next time we return to Carolina Beach, the Hollis House will be the first place we look to stay!

My wife and two dogs had a very comfortable stay at the Hollis house. The cottage was well stocked and very clean. We really enjoyed the local restaurants and even though it wasn’t warm beach weather we had a great time walking the dogs on the beach. Macrae park which is only a 10 minute drive from The house was also a very nice place to walk with or without the dogs

We have thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Hollis House. The house is very comfortable and met all our needs. We enjoyed being able to cook and grill when we wanted. The front porch is so nice. We often sat out there talking, eating and listening to the ocean. The house is close to restaurants and shops. Would definitely stay here again.

We stayed at the Hollis House for 7 nights and we will be back. It was so convenient to everything and a short walk to the beach access. We enjoyed the house very much along with our kids and dogs. I'm so glad I found this house and will be using it for years to come!

We had a great time in "Holli's House". The setup was perfect, very close to the beach, a great porch to hang out on for breakfast or after a day on the beach. Overall the house is nice and clean with everything working well. The whole area is very nice to visit and provides many attractions in addition to the beach. We loved the nearby state park and nearby beaches where dogs are allowed (on a leash).

We absolutely love the Hollis House! We have been coming here for a few years now and sometimes twice a year. We love the location, just steps from he beach and steps from dining! A short bike ride takes you to the heart of Carolina beach. We love the beach decor and the comforts of home. We truly appreciate that it's pet friendly because we love to take our fur babies everywhere we can. We will keep coming back every year! Thanks so much for sharing your home with us!! Can't wait for the next trip! The Salters
