This was a fantastic house, with everything we needed for our family. House decor is beautiful, space is very functional, and had everything we needed for a fantastic beach week. Location is great, Hooper was always amazingly fast in responding to any questions. Highly recommend if considering staying on Bald Head!!
The property owners were the best to work with! They made sure the house was stocked with shampoo conditioner body wash and so much personalized touches. There were plenty of bath towels and beach towels. Bedrooms all had Alexa in them. The owners reached out several times to check in and offer any assistance. They were so understanding when we had an accident the first night and made the situation not so upsetting. They were the best to work with.
This lovely home was the perfect find for our multi-generational family celebration! We enjoyed the porches on both sides of the house and the open-plan indoor gathering spaces, along with the very comfortable bedrooms, a well-equipped kitchen for a family that cooks, and plenty of towels (always a premium at the beach!). Cornhole and hammock were a hit with all ages, and there were many more games and books at the ready. Location was convenient to the ferry, marina, lighthouse and mid-island markets, plus many public beach access points. Having two golf carts offered the flexibility to explore further afield, which we appreciated. For most of the group this was our first visit to Bald Head Island, despite having lived in NC for many years. We'd love to return for another visit and we would certainly book Chic Shellter again. Thanks to our hosts for all of the thoughtful touches that made this such a memorable family weekend!
Hooper was very welcoming and responsive. The house was comfortable and exceptionally well appointed. Great kitchen and bathrooms. Thanksgiving on Bald Head at Chic Shelter was awesome!
