We had a wonderful stay! The space itself was charming and had everything we needed. The location was ideal, being very close to the marina and an easy bike ride or golf cart ride to the beach. We will absolutely be back!
We had a great stay! The place was exactly as described—clean, comfortable, and in a perfect location. Check-in was easy, and the host was super responsive and helpful throughout.
Such a cute cozy space for two! We were there for a wedding and the BH Diamond was ideal distance for welcome party at Jules, wedding chapel and BHI golf club. We would go back again without wedding obligations
The house was very clean, charming and very well appointed. It was in a Great location and the host was very accommodating and responsive. We really enjoyed our stay here and highly recommend it.
We really enjoyed our visit. The host thought of everything and it made for a comfortable and pleasant stay.Location was great, steps from the marina.The house was clean, cozy, well-decorated, and felt like home.We would definitely recommend it for a couple and plan on coming back.
This was our 2nd time staying at Bald Head Diamond and we loved it just as much as the first time. Perfect for a two people and the walkability to everything in the marina is awesome. Very clean and comfortable and the upstairs deck has amazing views. We would have liked to have had 2 chairs on the screened porch but that was the only issue we had.
Had a great time on the island, running Badwater Ultra Marathon. The place was perfect. Kitchen had everything to cook in for meals and the location was great! Would stay again fore sure!
The location was ideal and the house was so adorable. The only problem was there wasn’t any place to put clothes away. My partner used the coffee table downstairs to keep his things but overall it was a great place. Hugh was very good to work with and the Shoals Club was the best part!

Quiet, cozy cottage exactly as described. Would stay again.
Totally unique for this Island. To look at it you would swear you were on Cape Cod or Martha's Vineyard. The home was built and designed by the Boston based, Dan Costa the go-to architect when the Island was first being formed into a thriving community. He also has designed 'The Tijuca Tower' sitting across the Harbor and was the architect for The Shoals Club. We love it for its completeness but its compact nature. It is a complete home and hard to believe it is only 500 square feet. You will swear someone measured wrong when you are inside and see its completeness. The stairs to the sleeping level are very, very unique and those who are challenged to walk are dissuaded from being our guests. They are 'boat house steps' and somewhat difficult to first traverse. After your first try its a piece of cake. Check out the pictures. They are alternating steps.
What makes this property unique
Being in The Harbor was a quest that this little jewel, our 'Diamond', gave us. It is just so cozy and intimate we really feel good to just go and sit on the upper balcony and sip a cool drink. From this vantage we can see where the bald eagles nested this past spring, watch kayakers, and stand up paddle boards go by on the Bald Head Creek. It is named 'Bald Head Diamond' because when the earliest homeowners came there was, of course, no electricity. Therefore whenever a load of ice made it to the Island it was judged to be 'diamonds' that everyone gathered to use to keep their afternoon cocktails more perfect. Ice was as valuable as diamonds then during the time of the 'Generator Society' that made what little electricity they could from gasoline driven generators. Hence, 'The Generator Society' and their 'diamonds' have become our 'Bald Head Diamond'. Just as unique and precious to us. But we have electricity, wireless internet, Netflix (our subscription so please don't disable). We're so modern!
