About this property

Bald Head Island Family Retreat with private pool, BHI & Shoals!

We welcome you to love our renovated beach cottage as much as we do! We are tucked away in the Maritime forest with its beautiful live oak trees but only a 2 minute golf cart ride to fabulous South Beach. The large (private for guests only) community pool is only steps away for those who do want to stay close to the house. We have two - 6 passenger golf carts ready for you to explore the island. Our home sleeps 8 guests comfortably. Our first floor has 2 bedrooms each with king beds and adjoining full baths. The second floor has one bedroom with 2 queen beds and its own full bathroom. Each bedroom has a flatscreen Samsung smart TV. We have bikes & beach chairs for our guests to enjoy. Linens and towels (including beach towels) are included. We also include a starter set of all essentials (laundry, dish soap, paper towels/ toilet paper). Our kitchen is fully accommodated for those nights you want to eat in. A Weber propane grill is available for our guests use * please note propane is purchased directly by guests on island and not provided by owners. We take pride in having a clean, convenient, beautiful home for our guests to enjoy! If you have never experienced Bald Head Island you are going to love it! We are a barrier Island with no bridge which makes it super private and a nature lovers paradise! No cars allowed so you will take a passenger ferry to the island which adds to the excitement! A (guest) temporary membership to the (Lifestyle) BHI Club AND Shoals Club are available to purchase directly with the clubs. Depending on your interests, the clubs offer world class golf, multiple pools, tennis, pickleball and several restaurants for you to enjoy.
Our commitment is to provide you with a fully equipped home for you to enjoy beautiful Bald Head Island! The island is truly magical and fantastic for families, couples, multigenerational and guys/girls trips!
**Saturday-Saturday Check Ins only during peak season with a minimum 7 night stay between Memorial and Labor Day holidays**

About the host

Hosted by Shanna Smith

Host profile image
We are a retired military family, living in the Raleigh NC area and have loved Bald Head Island for many years! We finally bought our own cottage and are excited to share it with you! The joy of providing our guests with the same ability to make family memories on BHI is our pleasure!

Why they chose this property

Our neighborhood is quaint, conveniently located to the market and the shops; yet tucked away for those who want to just sit on the back porch and listen to the sounds of nature.

What makes this property unique

Our home is very family friendly and having the option to use the community pool steps from our door is a huge bonus to cool off and play during those lazy days of summer.
