We loved this house and the location. The views from the upper porches were amazing! The house was well suited for us (there were 8 of us there). Lots of great board games and puzzles - and having 3 golf carts was really nice.

Quick to respond

We really enjoyed this house and Bald Head Island Services. We had an issue with the refrigerator not working and they supplied us a large cooler with ice and a smaller refrigerator until the could get a replacement. They had a new refrigerator 36 hours later which is very impressive considering we are on an Island. We would have rented this house next year but decided we really needed a home with 2 king beds.
