About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Oceanfront /Spectacular Views/"OCEAN BEACH "

'Ocean Beach' resides at 21 Silversides Trail directly across the street from the beach on a cul-de-sac. WHAT A VIEW! We are midway down the South Beach, near the Maritime Market, fire station, boutique shops and almost exactly between The Bald Head Island Club and The Shoals Club.

Our new home got a thorough going-over and is redecorated, repainted, and rebranded in the owners style. Our luxurious new bedding is sure to please everyone. There are two master bedrooms, all four bedrooms have king beds with a twin in the upstairs master. Each bedroom has new 32' flat screen TVs.

Please remember to make reservations with the Bald Head Island Ferry to arrive and depart. Your ferry ticket also provides you with tram service but is not automatically added to tickets. Tram reservations require a distinct booking from the ferry to 21 Silversides Trail. Arrival may not be before 4 PM and Departure must be by 10 AM on the day of Departure.

Guests wishing optional Temporary Guest Memberships at The Bald Head Island Club and or The Shoals Club should contact them immediately upon booking our home. This is done by visiting their respective websites and following instructions for Guest Membership, there is an extra fee for each Club. The host has no responsibility in the Guest Membership quest other than assuring The Club(s) we are hosting a particular guest.

All linens and towels are provided. We have wireless high speed internet service.

The view from the upper deck is just spectacular and allows us to see from the Cape Fear River to Frying Pan Shoals. Dolphins are frequent visitors to 'our' beach and are easily seen from all 3 porches.

In the garage you will find a 4 passenger and a 6 passenger golf cart. You MUST be a licensed driver to operate the golf carts on Bald Head Island. The shaded protected area that is the entry to our home, also serves as a place to escape the sun in one of the hammock. There is a sandy play area under the house for those little ones who have grown tired of our sun drenched beaches and a hot outside shower to get rid of the sand.

The Maritime Market is quite amazing considering they must bring everything to the Island on a barge. The selections are extremely good and the service is excellent.

Keywords: Million dollar views-Oceanfront home

The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 4 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Tropical Storm Debby Stay

Great location. Really nice house. Hugh was very responsive. Would stay there again. Too bad we were there the week of a tropical storm as the island shut down for a few days and we had a lot of rain/wind. I strongly suggest either avoiding a trip during hurricane season or have insurance if traveling this time of year.

HEAVEN

This was our 25th year visiting BHI and this property made our anniversary even more enjoyable. The view was amazing along with the sunsets. The house was well stocked with essentials and had every appliance or cooking utensil you could imagine. Plenty of rooms and decks if you wanted to sneak away and read a book or take a little snooze. Was nice to have plenty of beach chairs, boogie boards and a beach umbrella (you do not have to worry about bringing any of that). The host was always available if needed. I had the pleasure of meeting the host as we were leaving - Hugh thank you for letting us enjoy your wonderful house on our special 25th anniversary on BHI - the most wonderful place in NC!!!

Nice stay

Overall good stay and solid house. Great decks and outdoor areas. Location is fine. Good supplies and toys and chairs and carts. House is a little tired on the inside, lots of little homeowner type fixes. Metal brackets holding together rocking chairs, spray painted areas of rust, microwave has to be pried open, etc. Not a big deal but at the price bracket a little surprising. The upstairs master has a strange opening over the living room which is apparently to be able to see the ocean. But it means that if anyone is trying to sleep up there they will be woken up by any noise downstairs…can’t watch tv as a family or play cards in the living room, etc. I found that to be a fairly big deal. Would strongly recommend at least installing a window there. We enjoyed our stay overall and would recommend the house.

Our stay @ 21 Silversides Trail

I just want to say Thank You to Hugh for facilitating our stay at this beautiful house and property. The location is a very short walk to the beach and very convenient to BHI Club, the Market, and the Shoals Club. The appointments in the kitchen were the best we've experienced, and in every way the home exceeded our expectations!

Perfect location, wonderful house

Do not hesitate to book Ocean Beach! It is in the perfect location - just across the dunes from the beach, unobstructed view of the ocean, right down the road from the main shopping area. The house has everything you will need and the furnishings are gorgeous. We spent many relaxing and pleasurable hours on the front decks. We were particularly pleased with the completely outfitted kitchen, including a wide array of spices and condiments. We've stayed in many beach homes that didn't even supply salt and pepper, so not having to transport/buy these necessities was a joy. Owner was immediately responsive and helpful. You will have a great beach vacation at this house! We sure did.

Wonderful home!

We really enjoyed our stay! The house is nicely decorated, comfortable and very well-equipped for cooking and relaxing. The upper deck is the perfect place to view the sunset and the screened porch off the main bedroom is the perfect morning coffee spot. We enjoyed the ocean views and the very close beach access. The owners were very informative and responsive before and during our stay. We will definitely stay at Ocean Beach again.

Family beach getaway

We came to BHI for a large family reunion. This was one of a few properties we stayed in. My sister and I and our families stayed here and we cant say enough about how perfect our stay was. Not only is the home the perfect beachfront home for views of the ocean, porch rocking and reading, and late night movies, but it was also stocked with all the essentials - boogie boards, beach chairs, island carts, beach towels, comfortable beds, a washer and dryer and plenty of space. The kitchen is well stocked with everything needed to cook and there were two refrigerators for plenty of room for food and cold beverages. Hugh was very responsive and helpful, and the location is idyllic. We only wish we could have stayed longer - but we will be back!

Fabulous Experience

This was our fourth trip to BHI, and our first time at this house. We have stayed in many vacation homes over the past 30 years throughout NC and VA. This is one of the best we have stayed in. The location is perfect - easy access to the beach and the market. But the house itself is so well stocked. Everything that you can imagine you might need it has. Kitchen - every pot, pan, dish, spice or plate you might need. Bar - every glass, plastic cup, blender, mixer you might need they have in volume. Coffee bar - grinder, filters, sugar all right there. Beach - from beach towels to nice beach chairs to boogie boards - plenty of all. Grills - a gas one that the ignition actually worked on, and a charcoal one - both in good shape. Beds - most comfortable beds we have experienced at a vacation house. The house itself is well designed - decks in the sun, decks in the shade, and a screened in porch. And on top of it all the owner it very communicative and easy to deal with. Not only do we highly recommend this house, we have already booked it again for next year. Can't wait to get back!

Great host, great location and all the stuff!

Hugh is an incredibly responsive and generous host. This house is the most well-equipped beach house we’ve ever rented - beach chairs, boogie boards, sand toys galore plus the most well-equipped kitchen you could ask for. Sunny deck, shaded deck, screened deck or Sandy play area with kids swings and a porch swing, you have every option imaginable for family space or quiet space. Living room and dining room are great for family games, and the second fridge in the garage really helps!

Perfect Seaside Getaway

This is our second time staying at this home and it was another incredibly special time making memories along the beach with our family. I love to cook and I never find a vacation home that can accommodate all my cooking equipment needs but this home has it all! We cooked delicious meals each night, spent our days strolling and playing along the beaches and nights were spent on the balcony stargazing to the sounds of the waves crashing nearby. The hosts have truly thought of every detail to make your stay as comfortable and pleasant as possible. We have stayed at many homes on BHI but none as perfect as this. Thank you for another wonderful visit, Hugh and Rebecca!
