About this property

Spacious Home with Ocean Views from Primary Suite, 4BR, 3BA, SB location

Welcome to "FerryTale Retreat!"

Purchased in June 2020 and remodeled during the fall and winter of 2020, this spacious beach getaway is brand new to the rental market and features the comforts of home with views of the ocean. The house is ideally located close to the beach, clubs and shopping. It is completely refurnished and professionally decorated with 4 bedrooms and 3 full baths.

This home is the ideal place for one or two families or a group of friends to enjoy a memorable vacation together. It has gorgeous ocean views from the kitchen, large front deck and upstairs king suite -- perfect for watching the sunset, moonrise and for amazing evening stargazing. The large, vaulted-ceiling living room and recently upgraded nook offer ample seating and entertainment options. Enjoy dinner out on a third private newly renovated back deck.

"FerryTale Retreat" has been professionally decorated in soothing shades of sea blue and grays to help maximize relaxation and bring the beautiful Bald Head Island beach inside.

The house features four bedrooms, three full baths and sleeps up to ten guests. The main bedroom suite has a king bed and flat screen tv, as well as an ensuite bathroom, a sitting area with a sofa and desk and private deck with amazing views.

The second primary bedroom has a queen bed, flat-screen TV, an ensuite bathroom and is tucked away in the quiet back of the house. This room also features deck access.

Another guest room has a queen bed and deck access and the fourth bedroom offers a bunk bed as well as a daybed with trundle. Closets include hangers and there are laundry baskets for your convenience.

The gourmet kitchen is fully equipped with all of the amenities you could desire and features stainless appliances. The kitchen is open to an airy dining room that seats eight and a newly remodeled breakfast nook for extra seating, dining and entertaining space.

The sunlit living room is open to the kitchen and includes a flat-screen Smart TV and a large space for relaxing with family and friends. The house is well-stocked with puzzles and games.

A full-sized washer and dryer are in a large pantry off the kitchen. A high chair and pack & play are located in the pantry along with an iron, ironing board and drying rack.

"FerryTale Retreat" is located right off of South Beach Wynd and is convenient to all the island attractions. There is plenty to do on the island - casual-to-elegant dining, several clothing/gift shops, camps, and education programs, etc. There is a full-service grocery store, ice cream shop and take-out pizza. Fishing, kayaking, surf lessons, scavenger hunts, and sightseeing charters are available.

Once​ you visit, we think you will love "FerryTale Retreat" as much as we do!

Date of Stay - April 2021
5 stars! We loved the house! It was extremely well organized and decorated. You can tell the owners spent lots of time providing everything you could need. We really liked the beach paintings. We found that the location is perfect, near the beach, the golf course, market, and marina.

N. Edmunds -. 5 STARS

Ferrytale Retreat has all the details covered—and what’s more important than the details? High-end appliances, super-well-appointed kitchen, impeccable décor, a Weber grill, luxurious memory foam mattresses, two great golf carts (but only blocks from a beach access). Great open spaces and comfy bedrooms—just a wonderful place to cool down and mix a margarita after a day in the sun. Highest recommendation here.
