About this property

Ultimate Bald Head cottage. Shoals Club/BHI Club access w/ GOLF. 2 golf carts.

  • This beautiful renovated Nantucket inspired cottage in Surfmans Walk is nestled in the maritime forest, just a short East Beach, the most popular beach on BHI. It is also a short walk (and even shorter golf cart ride) to Shoals Club, The Commons Park, Bald Head Island Conservancy and miles of biking, hiking and walking trails. Your hosts, Catherine and Brian, make sure you have everything you need to have a beautiful beach vacation.

    The two screened porches and tree-canopied patio with fresh salt air and the sounds of soothing surf in the distance offer a perfect backdrop to read, drink a glass of wine, cook out, have your morning coffee and relax with family. The back screened porch has a beautiful swinging bed and directly accesses a boardwalk complete with ancient oaks, Spanish moss and a community gazebo. Outdoor deck is outfitted with gas grill and comfortable seating. Al fresco dining is available in the screened-in porch and the deck.

    This house provides extra privacy as each bedroom has it’s own bathroom and smart TV. There are two bedrooms in the main house. The master bedroom has a king bed. The other bedroom in the main house has 3 twin beds (2 twins and a trundle). There is also a detached tree-house style guest cottage over the garage, which provides extra privacy with a queen-sized bed, smart TV and ensuite full bathroom. The crofter being detached from the house gives the guests added privacy and quiet.

    Cottage is well stocked with all the comforts of a relaxing beach vacation—WiFi, 2 golf carts (6-person and 4-person), heated outdoor shower, 6 beach chairs, 4 cruiser bikes, cooler, bed linens, bath towels, beach towels, beach umbrellas, sand toys, boogie boards, surf board, board games, books, puzzles, portable high chair, pack n’ play crib, Keurig and regular coffee makers, blender, crock pot and fully stocked kitchen. Bike helmets are not provided. Bike pump is in the garage.

    Weekly rentals are Saturday-Saturday in summer. We will entertain shorter stays outside of the high season. Message me to discuss.

    Our house has the option to purchase temporary memberships at Shoals Club (pool/restaurant/beach access/fitness center) AND Bald Head Island Club (golf/tennis/pool/restaurant/croquet/fitness center). Not all homes have access to both clubs. Shoals Club is closest to the house (5 minute walk), oceanfront and offers pools, dining, bars, fitness center and beach access. Bald Head Island club offers golf, tennis, croquet, dining, pools, park and water slide. Both clubs offer beautiful views and excellent food. Photos of the clubs are included in the pictures for our house.

    If playing golf on vacation is important to you, then you need to rent a house that provides the option for a golf membership to BHI Club. This house provides this option.

    Another benefit of our house is having 2 golf carts—4-person and 6-person. 2 carts enable groups to separate for the many different activities the island has to offer.

    Amazing restaurants, a spa, and a fully stocked market are minutes away from this quintessential Bald Head beach cottage.

    In short, our goal is for you to have everything you need to enjoy the perfect vacation. We will take good care of you on your stay.

    Please message me with any questions.
