Excellent vacation at Babington House

My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The pool and steps from the beach were highlights for my grandchildren. We loved not being right next to a bunch of houses and really enjoyed the quietness. We would definitely stay again and Bob was very responsive to all of our inquiries. Thanks for an awesome adventure to NC!!

Spacious and relaxing Holden Beach getaway

Our family beach trip included our three adult children, their spouses, and our two granddaughters ages 1 and 2. It was very helpful to have separate bathrooms and adequate spaces (beach, pool, upstairs and downstairs decks, and lower level parking) for alone time when needed. Perks like multiple coffee pots, an ice maker, a very-well stocked kitchen, multiple hoses for spraying off, and a fish-cleaning station were all very convenient.

Our second stay at the perfect place

This well-appointed home has everything including a smashing location on a large lot, a pool and sparsely populated beach. The owners are top notch communicators and help with anything needed. We were in a bind due to storm that dropped two feet of rain and left us houseless for our vacation at our original booking in Bald Head Island. Within hours we were able to pivot and secure Babington and had a perfect rest of our vacation with friends from around the country

We love the lack of crowds on the beach, the pool and just about every aspect of this place. Morning coffee on the porch in a rocker is just paradise. Sad to go home.

Always an amazing stay at Babington

We truly enjoyed our stay. You just can’t beat the privacy you get wit the Babington house. The pool is exceptional!!! Only issue we had was the downstairs master bathroom had an extra moldy shower curtain. I was very disappointed as the price paid for the week I think allowed us clean showers. Overall I’d say 8/10.
