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 appreciate a meal at home, there is plenty of seating for all and our galley-style kitchen is completely 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 savor 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 impressive and ever changing tapestry - that handsome Creek View. We think of it as an magnificant 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 striking 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 adore 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.

Our top Vacation rental booking tips:

Find your perfect rental:

• Summer time is high season in Bald Head Island. Reserve your Southport vacation in the Fall or Spring to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season.
• The sooner your group can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental properties are booked early. Reserving your vacation home six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your rental property.
• Owners sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
• Booking websites usually offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Southport area visitor guides which include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport area magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Narrow your Search:

• Select a group lead, choose your trip dates, and select a maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. All New In 2024 CreekFront! Dock! Views! 5.5 Bedroom + 2nd crofter\/sauna option has 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often available on booking websites. If not, email or call the property management company before booking the vacation property. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to work out what is optimal for your vacation family.
• Looking for particular amenities? Most websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• Traveling with pets? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Extra fees or charges could be applied to your contract.

Some things to know before you go:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Add a note with the directions to your smartphone, and take a printed backup.
• To ensure that damages aren't linked to your family's visit, record any problem areas during arrival. message the property manager immediately to document your findings. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor. Often, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Keep your rental home locked while you are away! Don't let thieves spoil your trip.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the property to make sure you've collected all of your things. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
• Did you have a excellent vacation? Most rental managers make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property manager was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was out of order and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
