Accommodations: House, 3 Bedrooms + Loft, 2.5 Baths (Sleeps 10)
Just minutes from the Beach, enjoy our wonderful Caribbean style home on beautiful Bald Head Island, North Carolina. Shoals Club or BHI Club included at not additional cost. Adobe style architecture, arched doorways, terracotta tile and marble floors, tons of outdoor living space, and an open floor plan are a few of the distinctive features that make this home so special. Ancient live oaks, a very private yard, and the sound of the ocean from the screened back porch make this a wonderfully peaceful retreat.
This spacious home offers roughly 2400 square feet of living space inside and over 1100 square feet of covered porches (rocking chairs and swing provided on the front porch, and a hammock and rockers are provided on the screened back porch). The home includes 3 bedrooms on the main floor and a large loft that sleeps 4 (great for teenagers). A separate sitting room with warm wooden flooring offers a cozy place to read or talk apart from the main living area. For those who love their TV, this home is equipped with four TVs, 2 DVD players, a VCR, and a nice home stereo with surround sound. Wireless high speed Internet is provided, so bring your laptop.
Nestled in the maritime forest on Bald Head Island, you will find serenity and peace as you lie in the hammock on the screened back porch, listening to the sounds of the forest and the ocean, and observing the frequent deer or occasional fox that visit the back yard, which is surrounded by majestic live oaks and backs up to woods on all sides. Both the master bedroom and the back bedroom open to the screened back porch. As for convenience, the home is a 3 minute golf cart ride or 5 minute walk to the nearest beach and just around the corner from the island grocery store. This home is VERY private, with no neighbors in front of, behind, or to one side of the home.
Your rental will include membership to your choice of the Shoals Club (a pristinely located island beach club with pools, boardwalk, towel service, dining, gym) or the Bald Head Island Club (golf, tennis, crochet, dining, pool, gym). Access to both clubs is available for an additional fee.
Two 4-passenger late model Club Car golf carts are included. A third is available for an additional fee ($100/wk). Gas and charcoal grills are provided in the private back yard. Very well-appointed kitchen with new appliances. New washer an dryer. Pets allowed for an additional $200 fee. Rents Saturday to Saturday.

Year Purchased: 2001
Why the Owner Chose Bald Head Island
My mother moved to Bald Head in the mid 1990's, and I visited often. At times, she and my step father would leave the island and let me stay there. Over the next few years, I knew that I wanted to own a home on Bald Head and worked hard to make that a reality, purchasing a couple of lots and a villa on my way to buying Summer Breeze in 2001. We have made a great deal of upgrades to the home to make it the sweet island getaway that it is today.
The Unique Benefits at this House
Summer Breeze is our escape sanctuary. We go every chance we get. We truly relax there like no other place on earth. Evenings are spent on the front porch enjoying the easy breezes sitting on the porch swing or grilling out back in our private back yard. The hammock on the back porch is great for reading. Nights are so quiet. The only sound you here in the house is the kitchen clock. Since our home is in the forest on an island in the ocean, it gets wonderfully dark at night, and the stars are brilliant, like fireworks in the sky. The place is so peaceful that we sleep like babies. We always hate to leave when it is time to go back home.
