Coming Fall 2024: Brand New 5.5 Bedroom (plus optional 2nd crofter to add a 6th bedroom + sauna!).


Please note that we spend family time on BHI each summer and may not be able to commit to certain summer weeks being available until we finalize our extended family summer availability schedule, usually by March at which time we will show all available and unavailable weeks.

Our 5.5 bedroom home & crofter is great for two or three families (fits three families of 2+2 very comfortably). The bed configuration is:
Main 4BR House: 1. K, 2. Q, 3. T + T-Trundle, 4. T x 2,
Crofter: Q plus loft w/T x 2
If you are a multi-family group, the crofter (with a Queen plus a loft with two Twins) is great for a family with two kids that wants to both be with the group but also some privacy - it has a full bath, dorm refrigerator, microwave & coffee pot (ladder access loft in crofter, so loft is not for the very little ones).

We have a 2nd Crofter with a separate lock out as an optional add-on for bigger groups. With this add-on it is 6.5 bedrooms, sleeps 14 in beds. Ask for details!

For those who savor a meal at home, there is plenty of seating for all and our galley-style kitchen is entirely appointed with everything you'll need to make a memorable meal, complete with an unforgetable view.

Hop on one of our two new Onward Club Car golf carts, both with high speed motors. (They will go 25+ MPH so please do not exceed the 18MPH BHI speed limit!) We spend time on the beach Every Single Day on BHI, and appreciate the open air golf cart ride there and back immensely BUT we also have the best of both worlds because we come home to the amazing and ever changing tapestry - that impressive Creek View. We think of it as an marvelous live painting that changes every day.

We enjoy watching Egrets, Ibis and Osprey from inside the home or while sitting in the broad screened porch. We watch our kids fish, crab, cast net, kayak and swim right out front daily. And what a treat to watch our 10 year old son dash straight out to the dock every morning for an hour or more barely remembering the existence of TV or video games.

We can walk left on the boardwalk out front and we are at the boat launch in about 2 mins.. Alternately we go the other way on the boardwalk with our first cup of coffee in hand every morning for an spectacular and inspiring 10 min. creek view board-'walk'.

And, with painless access to the floating dock you can bring or rent your boat! Or, enjoy a paddle on the creek by canoe, SUP or kayak, all rentable on island (an absolute favorite activity for our whole family).

Come enjoy our family home on the creek, we think you will appreciate it as much as we do!

Please note that we spend family time on BHI each summer and typically cannot commit to certain weeks being available until we finalize our summer schedule, usually by March at which time we will show all available and unavailable weeks.

How to get the best Bald Head Island vacation rental experience:

Get the most from your rental home budget:

• Summer time is high season in Bald Head Island. To book the best vacation home within budget, we strongly suggest booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at Carolina Beach restaurants, beaches, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• In the Carolina Beach area, The earlier your group can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation homes are reserved very early. Booking your rental property up to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and book your vacation rental.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner if your family qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Property managers typically offer guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Carolina Beach area travel guides that include special deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• First and foremost, have your group agree to the best dates and a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. All New In 2024 CreekFront! Dock! Views! 5.5 Bedroom + 2nd crofter\/sauna option has 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally accessible online. If not, email the host before booking the rental. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to work out what is best for your family.
• Looking for unique amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find your ideal rental.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental.
• Some properties allow pets, and others do not. Acceptable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the owner about allowable pet guidelines before booking.

More considerations for your visit:

• Put the manager's information in your smartphone.
• Upon check-in, make note of any issues with the property and immediately contact the host. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay more pleasurable. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually an excellent resource to find the best local scenic spots.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Lock your vacation home while you're out. Keep your property safe!
• Double-check the property to make sure that you've packed everything on check-out day. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property managers rely on good reviews to propel future reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will be thankful you shared your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
