Anniversary weekend
We absolutely loved this sweet cottage and our stay there to celebrate our anniversary! Well appointed and so clean and comfortable. Great location close to the beach and very quiet neighborhood. We’ve been coming to BHI for 20 years and never get tired of returning for a quiet getaway. Would definitely stay here again. One note to think about visiting in January, none of the restaurants were open so that was a challenge, but the house has a nice kitchen and we didn’t mind cooking food we bought from the market and taking the ferry over to Southport for the day is easy enough to do! Thanks for a great stay!

Absolutely love BHI and had a great trip, and overall the rental was good, but there were some cons with the rental that kept it from getting 5 stars: 1) biggest concern was that the doors wouldn't lock. There's a note about having to lift the door/handle and try that way, which we did, but we figured out the actual construction of the knobs keeps the latch from fully extending...so it was literally impossible to lock. The good news is that BHI feels extremely safe, so it wasn't a huge concern...but would be anywhere else! 2) I had called the rental company prior to the trip and they agreed to an early check in. But when we arrived, the cleaning service had just arrived and we weren't able to get into the house until the standard 4pm time. 3) Outside trash was left from the prior renters. Our stay didn't overlap trash day, which we understood, but it's still kind of off-putting to have overstuffed trash bins with someone else's garbage when you're paying as much as you are. 4) The kitchen has most cooking utensils, but is missing key things like salt. It'd be nice if someone was checking a 'standard inventory' list to make sure the basics were there. 5) It was very cold/windy when we were there and it'd be nice if the golf carts had plastic coverings to help shield the wind like other rentals we've stayed at do. Not a huge issue at all, and the carts worked well, just would've been nice to have. Loved the trip and will absolutely come back to BHI, but will likely look for another place to rent.

Perfect cozy stay
We loved everything about this home. It was perfect for two adults and one child but there was plenty of room for additional people. Kitchen is incredibly well appointed. We spent lots of time on the screened in porch and loved puttering around on the golf carts that is included.
