Your entire family will enjoy this spacious, relaxing and inviting traditional home.

The living space boasts vaulted ceilings, warm hardwoods and plenty of natural light from its many windows. Snuggle into the comfy seating and enjoy a cozy conversation or watch a movie on the flat screen over the decorative fireplace. Beyond, the roomy chef's fully-equipped kitchen gleams with its granite counters and stainless appliances. You'll appreciate the plethora of custom cabinets, too. The ample island houses not only plenty of prep space but a breakfast bar seating four. Nearby, the handsome dining area comfortably accommodates eight and delights with serene views of Mother Nature. It also offers access to the generous screened porch-the perfect spot to enjoy a beverage, relax and recharge.

Down a quiet hallway, sequestered through curtains, this level houses two suites. The first is a peaceful Queen with its own full bath ensuite. The other is a large sunshine-filled King Owner's suite with a California closet and spa-like full bath with a big tiled shower.

Cozy forest retreat
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great house tucked in forest on a quiet cul de sac. Have stayed in different BHI homes for almost 20 years and this is definitely at the top . Overall in very good condition and clean . The golfcarts were great and quick with bright LED lights . This was a nice change from years of slow , dimly lit carts . Great location nearby the market which came in handy over the Thanksgiving holiday . Would stay here again :)

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house is cute and in an excellent location with easy access to the grocery store and beach. However there were a few cons. Considering the house sleeps 10 I would have liked to have more seating in the living room. The kitchen is great for making meals. For the price I would have expected decent beach chairs but the ones provided were either moldy or rusty. And the golf carts aren’t in great condition. The larger one has no power steering. Overall it’s a cute house but I wouldn’t rent it again for a large group as we felt like we were on top of each other the whole time. Too many bedrooms and not enough living space.

Our family of 10 loves the setting and space of The Corsair. This is our second stay. Wendy Wilmot also provides bikes so that we did not have to bring our own or rent them once here. Housekeeping did an outstanding job or preparing this home for us. The kitchen is easily the best stocked one we have had in the 20 years we have vacationed on Bald Head. What a perfect week on the island!

Birthday week
Rating Details: The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our stay at Bald Head was wonderful with the exception of two marginal golf carts that gave us constant delays all week. I know how busy WW Rentals can be, and their response was prompt and courteous, but limited resolution on the carts! We should have been provided with at least ONE cart that ran and was not in need of constant attention. We own a golf course, we know what a functional god cart is and we shouldn't have to explain daily that the carts are old and unsafe(stirring on one was random and the other would not hold a charge). We rented a cart for the entire week because the rental company said "all their back up carts were out" and did not offer to provide one. I realize, again, how busy BHI rentals can be, however, customer service should be addressed and just not dismissed.
