Great house away from the crowds
Dock across the street is great for a casting net. Caught shrimp, Croaker, and crabs. Many birds to watch. 10 minutes from East Beach and the BHI Conservancy. Highly recommend doing the Ibis Sanctuary with the BHI Conservancy.
Great trip to Bald Head Island
We had a WONDERFUL first visit to Bald Head island. Merritt in the Landing was a perfect place for me, my husband and 2 kids. The home was in a great location-we enjoyed access to the beautiful marsh and we were close to the beaches. The home was clean, well maintained and had everything we needed for a quite, relaxing vacation. I would recommend this rental home to anyone and we hope to return again next summer!
amazing long weekend getaway!
Merritt in the Landing was the perfect spot for our last get-away of summer! The property was spotless and well-stocked; it had everything we needed. The golf cart was in perfect working order as were the 2 bikes. The location is wonderful; close to the beach and across the street from the beautiful long dock out onto the marsh. We were so pleasantly surprised that there were NO mosquitoes (we expected them in August). We would certainly rent this property again in the future! The owner was wonderful to work with - all in all this was a perfect VRBO experience:)
pleasant stay
This house served us well for last minute booking. However, nightly rate is quite high compared to other nicer options and locations on the island. We were only staying for 3 nights and most accommodations require 7 night min stays. The biggest disappointment were the bathrooms which were dirty upon our arrival and bath towels smelled very bad. FYI, no beach towels provided. However, kitchen was well stocked and clean. Furniture was adequate but showing signs of wear. Beds had waterproof mattress covers that were loud and uncomfortable. We loved using the golf cart (though quite dated) and very nice to have beach chairs. Again, this home is a nice option for family for short stay, but needs some attention.
Peaceful and Fun Getaway!
This is a beautiful, well appointed, and relaxing house that we would go back to in an instant! It's great for a couple or a family. The house is excellently maintained, the kitchen has everything you need, the bikes are great, the furniture is lovely, and the beds are perfect! The house is on a peaceful road, a few steps from the serene marshes. It was very hard to leave!
Great time in the marsh!
This was our second time on the island. Staying in the marsh was a great experience. It was quite and relaxing. Walking out on the walk way after dark was beautiful to see. The house exceptional as always. Everything that we expected and more. We had a wonderful time and are already looking forward to going back. We have stayed both times in a Merritt house. No disappointments. Everything was clean and there as promised. The bikes were great. Can not say enough about how much we enjoyed our stay! Working with the owner could not have been easier and more enjoyable. When we return we will contact her again!
