The spacious, open floor-plan provides plenty of room for up to 10 guests. The first floor living room opens into the dining area with the deluxe kitchen just beyond. The kitchen is equipped with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and all the equipment you need.

Double doors open from the dining area to the large screened porch and the deck area equipped with a propane grill. The first floor bedroom and bathroom suite is furnished with a queen bed and can be closed off from the rest of the downstairs area.

The master bedroom has a king size bed. It opens onto a private balcony with a tree house view of the maritime forest. The third bedroom is furnished with two twin beds. The fourth bedroom contains a queen and set of bunk beds. Each bedroom is decorated in a beach cottage motif. The bathrooms are finished with granite countertops and custom tile work.

'The Palms' is stocked with books, videos, games and puzzles in case a rain cloud passes by.

Beach chairs, towels, and umbrellas are available as part of the membership. It is of course optional but we highly encourage all renters to take advantage of this impressive club.

Bald Head Island's 14 miles of beaches can be accessed at any of the 42 public beach entrances. We provide everything you need for a day of fun: boogie boards, beach toys, beach chairs and umbrellas, and beach towels.

You can also rent kayaks to explore the Island's creeks, bicycle to the Harbor for an outdoor lunch at MOJO's, take a hike along one of the Island's nature trails, or enjoy a relaxing day at the newly-opened Spa next to the Maritime Market. You'll be just minutes away from all of the amenities by golf cart.

Family get away
Location and house great. Plenty of space for family. Appreciate Dominic’s accessibility and response time. Small issue with golf cart, but think it was prior guests not properly charging. Couldn’t use any of the bikes, but easily rented some. Would stay here again.

Decent House
Photos are dated - upkeep of the house exterior living spaces is not in line with photos. The exterior requires cleaning to be able to utilize the spaces. Interior was nice and as expected. House has the basics but lacks some of the items that are normal to most houses in Bald Head. A refresh would be helpful.

Why they chose this property

We looked for a vacation home along the entire North Carolina coast and fell for Bald Head Island as we are sure you will too.

What makes this property unique

Our home is located conveniently in the center of the island for quick access to the market area or beach by foot or cart. We love to spend days at the beach and return to our cool comfortable forest home.
