Location: Bald Head Island, Southern Coast, Coastal, North Carolina, USA (less than an hour's drive from Wilmington, NC.) View Map
Accommodations: House, 3 Bedrooms + Sleeping Porch, 3 Baths (Sleeps 7-8)
It's never too far from your house to Point "B"! Here's a great opportunity to stay on beautiful Bald Head Island at an especially affordable price. We offer a 3 bedroom, 3 bath property complete with all the amenities to make your vacation a dream come true. We repainted and refreshed everything in 2008.
The main house has two bedrooms on the first floor, each with a queen bed, with two connecting bathrooms. A few steps away on an elevated walkway you reach the very private third bedroom with a double bed (and single roll-away), a coffee-maker, and its own full bath and deck overlooking the lagoon and golf course. There is also a large screened porch just off the master bedroom, where many have happily slept on cots or sleeping bags. Our house is equally suitable for three couples who'll each have a "master suite", or for large families with children. There's one crib tucked away for your use.
There's a partially paved courtyard enclosed by a picket fence where you can grill outside. Flowering jasmine, pittosporum and rosemary add fragrance to the air. Upstairs there's a deck off the great room, just the place for morning coffee or evening drinks, and from there you're likely to spot herons, ibis, osprey and other birds coming to enjoy the lagoon.
You're just minutes away from the Harbor and the beaches by golf cart, bicycle or foot. Just as close-by, you can reach creek access for canoeing, kayaking and fishing. The Village is three minutes away where you'll have free Wi-Fi access at the Community Center.
The Village center is also the site of Town Hall, the Chapel, the PO and Old Baldy, our beloved old lighthouse. The Maritime Market (seven minutes away) is a well-stocked grocery emporium and deli, with really good breakfasts, sandwiches, and snacks. It's tucked into the maritime forest close to other retail shops and the new spa. Several good restaurants are located in the Harbor area.
Prospective renters should be aware that there is no club membership associated with our house, and the savings are passed on to our guests. Our rates are the best on the island. If golfing, the club pool and club dining are important to you, it would be best to look for another house. But if you want to come and enjoy the beaches, marshes, creeks and the best of island life, you're going to enjoy the experience of staying at Point B.
Bicycles, boats and beach chairs (along with umbrellas, boogie boards, and shovels) are waiting for your family. After a wonderful day of island activities you'll return to your peaceful retreat on the lagoon. The dining table can seat six to eight, with more seats at the bar. You'll find a video and CD library, lots of puzzles, games and books and, at bedtime, high quality linens and bedding. And the stargazing and quiet sounds of nature at night are amazing!

Point "B" - Affordable Family Fun on Bald Head Island
Year Purchased: 1997
Why the Owner Chose Bald Head Island
Bald Head Island is a uniquely beautiful spot where we can enjoy the beaches as well as the maritime forest, creeks, marshes and all the wonderful wildlife that make it their home as well.
The Unique Benefits at this House
In addition to all the usual amenities our home offers 3 bikes, 2 kayaks and one old canoe. We also have satellite TV, a good music system, and lots of videos and games. The house is nestled by a beautiful lagoon that hosts all kinds of birds. The view from the upstairs deck is amazing, and from the screened porch below you can spend an enchanted evening just listening to the chorus of frogs, peepers, crickets and who-knows-what!
Great beach for families with small children. Very gentle waves, tidal pools, lots of white sand.
East beach usually has the wildest waves and the fewest people. Absolutely beautiful.
