Come to beautiful, secluded, unspoiled Bald Head Island, North Carolina, a car-free environment that is a safe, peaceful family retreat and a romantic couples getaway. Our home is beautifully decorated and fully equipped for the perfect vacation. We are a short (two minute) walk to a white sandy beach via the neighborhood's private boardwalk system. Our beaches are never crowded! The Milliken House has a wrap-around front porch with rockers, a porch swing and hammock for visiting with friends and family. Our rear patio has an outdoor, private hot/cold water shower, propane grill and outdoor dining for eight.
The first floor of our home offers an open floor plan with living, dining and kitchen areas, pickled wood floors, nine foot ceilings, a half bath and a laundry closet with a full-sized washer and dryer. Our large gourmet kitchen has Corian countertops, a breakfast bar that seats four, maple glass-front cabinets, and a terra-cotta tile floor. The dining room table seats another six people. The living area has a color cable TV with VCR and a stereo with CD player. The dining area features a beautiful, custom-made dining table and seats six. There is a portable phone on the first floor.
The second floor is carpeted with nine foot ceilings, and has two large bedrooms, each with a king sized bed. The master bedroom has a private deck with ocean views, a work area with desk, speakerphone, color cable TV with a DVD player, a large closet, and a private bath with double sinks and a large soaking tub and shower. The guest bedroom has a comfortable wing backed arm chair, a full-sized crib complete with crib linens and a bumper in the alcove, a portable phone and a large closet. A second full bath, with tub and shower, is on the second floor in the hallway next to the guest bedroom.
The third floor, with pickled wood floors and nine foot ceilings, is a large dormer bedroom with ocean views, two built-in twin daybeds under a row of west-facing windows, built-in bunk beds, a closet, and a futon couch that folds out into a double bed. This floor is set up for kids, with a cable TV with VCR and DVD player, a stereo with CD player, and lots of children's books, videos and toys. There's a large open area up here where the kids can spread out and play!
All bed linens are high quality, 100% cotton, and all bed pillows are down-filled (we have allergenic alternatives available). We provide bath and beach towels. We have two golf carts, a four-seater and a six-seater, each with seat belts, for getting around the island. All rentals include a temporary membership in the Bald Head Island Club and the Shoal's Club for your length of stay. |
