About this property

Bald Head Island Family Retreat with private pool, BHI & Shoals!

  • We welcome you to love our renovated beach cottage as much as we do! We are tucked away in the Maritime forest with its beautiful live oak trees but only a 2 minute golf cart ride to fabulous South Beach. The large (private for guests only) community pool is only steps away for those who do want to stay close to the house. We have two - 6 passenger golf carts ready for you to explore the island. Our home sleeps 8 guests comfortably. Our first floor has 2 bedrooms each with king beds and adjoining full baths. The second floor has one bedroom with 2 queen beds and its own full bathroom. Each bedroom has a flatscreen Samsung smart TV. We have bikes & beach chairs for our guests to enjoy. Linens and towels (including beach towels) are included. We also include a starter set of all essentials (laundry, dish soap, paper towels/ toilet paper). Our kitchen is fully accommodated for those nights you want to eat in. A Weber propane grill is available for our guests use * please note propane is purchased directly by guests on island and not provided by owners. We take pride in having a clean, convenient, beautiful home for our guests to enjoy! If you have never experienced Bald Head Island you are going to love it! We are a barrier Island with no bridge which makes it super private and a nature lovers paradise! No cars allowed so you will take a passenger ferry to the island which adds to the excitement! A (guest) temporary membership to the (Lifestyle) BHI Club AND Shoals Club are available to purchase directly with the clubs. Depending on your interests, the clubs offer world class golf, multiple pools, tennis, pickleball and several restaurants for you to enjoy.
    Our commitment is to provide you with a fully equipped home for you to enjoy beautiful Bald Head Island! The island is truly magical and fantastic for families, couples, multigenerational and guys/girls trips!

This house was excellent for our family! We had 6 couples and 1 small child. The amenities were as expected and the house was clean. The house is situated in the middle of the island and we really enjoyed having access to the community pool area which was equally nice. Added bonus- the house had good games and puzzles too which we enjoyed. Would stay here again!

Perfect Location on the Island

The house was in great shape, clean, very comfortable, and had all of the amenities you could want for a stay on BHI. The location was central to everything, and the neighborhood pool was perfect.

Relaxing getaway

From check in to check out, the process was stress-free. The property had everything that we needed during our stay (beach chairs, sand toys, coolers, bug spray, beach towels, etc). The kitchen was well stocked and the home was beautifully decorated. Lots of towels and comfy beds! We had a wonderful, relaxing trip and can’t wait to go back!

Great house on Bald Head!

The house is nice and well kept! It was as advertised and my family would wholeheartedly recommend it! The two large golf carts was a nice bonus and the set of beach equipment was appreciated. Having a pool steps away was also great…

Great location and fun family time.

The house was located close to the maritime market and south beach. The neighborhood pool was great for our Grandson. We did do temporary guest passes to bald head island club but also having that pool within a few steps was great. The house is stocked with puzzles, bikes, games, etc. for fun family time.

Bald Head Island Stay

Cute house. Plants needed trimming off lower steps. Lower steps need replacing, well furnished except there was no can opener. Nice quiet location almost a recluse. Overall, a good choice to stay.

Great Property

Great property for a family. The home is clean, nicely appointed and well kept. It had everything we needed, plus a couple of nice surprises, like the Shibumi beach umbrella. Both golf carts were in great shape. The community pool is just across the street and very nice. Overall, the location is in the center of the island and pretty close to everything. The property manager is super responsive and helpful. We would definitely stay here again.

Excellent location for staying at Bald Head Island

Clean and accommodating location for our week stay at BaldHead. We have been coming here for many years and both my wife and I agree that this is one of the nicest and cleanest places that we have ever stayed in. The amenities were great and perfect for our family of 5. The location was perfect for getting to the beach and grocery store. 2 golf carts were provided and even a shibumi for the beach. The owner was kind and made herself readily available for us if we needed her. It was quiet and the pool was great for our grandchildren. We would highly recommend this as a place to stay and will certainly consider coming back next summer.

Perfect mid island location

Location5Two great running golf carts5House layout5Huge dining table great for meals and games5Cleanliness 3 Dated interior, master bedroom bedding needs updating with type that is washed with each new rental. One towel,washcloth,hand towel per person is not sufficient. I had to do laundry during our three nights for towels etc.Kitchen needs a thorough cleanup of cupboards. Stove needs deep clean.The house was a great floor plan for us but just in need of a good cleaning and freshen up furnishings and home goods. Stained fabric sofa.Porch furniture needs a good wipe down.I have rented many homes at various beaches and this was a disappointment, my DIL saw cockroaches on the first night and was freaked out.I realize it is off season and maybe property manager is out of routine or standards are lightened. We loved almost everything about the house. A good cleaning would go a long way.Why are there so many warn tired pillows in the closet in MBR just piled on floor of closet?

This was our first time on Bald Head Island but hopefully not our last. This house was perfect for our needs. It was clean, well equipped, and beautiful. The two golf carts worked out great and the pool was super convenient. Thank you for a great experience!
