Twelve adults, friends and family, stayed for five days over Thanksgiving holiday. Nice location. Comfortable layout and furnishings, with well-equipped kitchen. Two screened-in porches and three decks were a great place to lay out and read. Hosts very responsive to all questions and issues we had during our stay.

Weekend escape
We stayed here with 3 other families. We had 15 people and it worked perfectly! The house is great and the owners very responsive and kind. I loved the location and the wooded walk to the beach. Would definitely stay there again!!

Family Vacation 2024
Our family of 13 stayed at "A Shore Thing" June 15-22 and had a fantastic time on the Island and in the home. The home is very spacious, yet warm and inviting. Our tightknit family loves to cook together and "gather in the kitchen" and this home is perfect for that. The very large and well equipped / stocked kitchen and huge dining table allowed us to unwind and relax after a long day at the beach and BHI Club over homecooked meals. The house location has a short-cut walk to the beach and is a very short golf cart ride away as well. It is our experience that you really only needed to bring your clothes and personal items as the house provides all you'll need to enjoy a week at the beach - including three golf carts in excellent shape, beach items such as chairs, and umbrellas, and all house amenities to make it feel like home. The hosts were easy to communicate with, although we didn't need a thing while staying at the home. We would not think twice about staying at this property again - it was a great experience.

Total Perfection!
Everything was more than what we could hope for- the owners are delightful and the property, location, and amenities were perfect for our needs. We could walk to the beach within minutes to capture the beauty each morning provided. We will be back again- hopefully with our children and grand children.

Family Vacation
We really enjoyed our stay on BHI. The Island is so beautiful. A Shore Thing is a beautiful home and it accommodated our 15 family members easily and comfortably. The beds and the showers were great, however, it was really dusty, there were dust clumps even on the walls. I guess its not easy to clean in between guests but it really needs like a good deep cleaning. My little nephew has a lot of severe allergies and we did our best to clean so his allergies wouldn't be triggered. There were also a few issues but Annemarie and John were very helpful and took care of contacting maintenance/repair. They also, were very prompt in replying to my emails. The only other thing that bunmed us out some was that one of the Golf Carts wasn't charging right and left us stranded 12 min from the house when we were driving around the Island for a family photography shoot and then another time on our last night when we were going to dinner at BHI Club. Both times it was very inconvenient as you can imagine such a large family we needed all 3 Golf Carts and the times it kept breaking down were in the evening so we couldnt even rent one because the rental place closed at 4 pm. The first time Annemarie and John had it towed to a repair shop and they returned it to us saying it was fixed but obviously it wasn't. It was frustrating trying to deal with that and get everyone where we needed to go. But we went to have a relaxing vacation and for the most part it was and we enjoyed our stay.

A Shore Thong is the perfect place!
We just stayed for a week in this wonderful home! We have rented houses in BHI for 12 years now and this is the first house we have rented that we want to continue to go to both because how amazing the house and location are, and how it also accommodates are growing family. We always go to East Beach, and the fact that there is a boarded walkway close by all the way to the beach was fabulous! We didn’t have to trudge through the sand to get to the steps that go over the dunes. It was probably a five or six minute walk. Two members of our family prefer the pool and walked daily to the Shoals club, which was also right there. We love doing activities at the turtle Conservancy, and that again was right there. And we absolutely love Mike’s bites Which has the best Italian ice! We frequent that as well and it is right there. I haven’t even gotten to the amazing house. Six bedrooms 6 1/2 baths everyone had their own bathroom, large living area opening into the kitchen, I have never been anywhere with a more stocked and equipped kitchen than this house ever(including my own!). They had everything including a rice cooker, crockpot, etc. All the appliances and utensils… everything was high-quality! My son and his wife love espresso, and they even had an espresso pot for the stove(exactly what they use at home!). The house is aesthetically beautiful as well. Finally, the owners are so responsive to any question we had. The perfect house!

Delightful
Lovely, spacious home with great amenities & attention to detail. Our family of originally 5, now grown to14, has enjoyed BHI vacations for 32 years. This house & all interactions with owners definitely 5 STARS! Great location another bonus. Love love love this house & John & Annmarie. Would definitely rent again. Absolutely everything we needed from ample hot water for so many people to great A/C to state of the art kitchen appliances & gadgets. Beach chairs & toys & bikes too. Spotlessly clean. Kids bunk room was so fun for our “littles” with parents’ bedroom close by. Two masters, 1up/1 down was great. Oh & almost forgot !THE PORCHES!

Annual BHI Trip
The property is tucked away in the woods at Cape Fear Station, and there is a beautiful path (great for family pictures) within 0.10 miles of the house that takes you to the beach and Shoals Club. The owners are very responsive, and were understanding with the few issues we had. Small, but the range hood has temperamental lighting, and we fixed a golf cart that just got lifted and the front drive shaft needed tightening (not the fault of the owners). They were extremely grateful and accommodating. Plus, having a third golf cart is a great touch and super helpful when more than two families are using the house.
We stay at BHI annually and this house, like all the others, has roaches at night, especially on the first floor. The owners indicated it was recently sprayed, but some made it back to the mainland with our luggage.
The owners do a great job of outlining in detail those items at the house for our use to include appliances, spices, etc. I would recommend you bring extra paper towels, Lysol wipes and spices you enjoy on a daily basis as many are picked over. Also, we purchased plastic cups and paper plates for the kids to use so to not have to use any glassware. The refrigerator and ice maker are awesome and very spacious. The kitchen is great to cook in with the griddle and six burners, and gas is a huge plus! The beach towels were great. Luggage racks would be a great touch to keep items off the floor.
We were disappointed that the floors were not mopped very well, in which we spoke with the owners directly.

Beautiful property that is well appointed. Gourmet kitchen was terrific. Bedrooms were all beautiful. The crofter above the garage was terrific. Tons of outdoor seating on decks. Spacious and convenient to the beach! Great communication with the owners. 11 of us used the property and it worked out well.

A Shore Thing
We arrived a bit early and the cleaning crew was still there we introduced ourselves and left our belongings on the porch. Golf carts were charged and we took off exploring. Returned at 4:15 cleaning crew was still there. At 5:30 I took the crew to ferry terminal as there was no transportation arrangements for them. No big deal. Upon return we noticed beds had sheets folded under the pillows, we had to make beds, showers had black sludge and bathrooms need to be cleaned, we swept the house on the main floor. Garbage was over flowing and trash had to be picked up outside. By Monday we couldn’t figure out the thermostat and would default to 75. Gas grill would not light we reached out to owners and they were made aware of all our concerns and already knew of some of the problems. All in all the place is in need of cosmetic repairs, a good cleaning and updates there was plenty of bathrooms and beds. For our family of 14 it was a good week at the beach.

We are natives of Massachusetts. We enjoy the beach, wildlife and outdoor activities; fishing, kayaking, and hiking. We love spending family time on the Island and creating lasting memories. We are happy to share our home with other families. It has been such a rewarding experience to receive emails, phone calls and thank you notes from families who have enjoyed themselves at 'A Shore Thing.'
この宿泊施設のオーナーになった理由
In 2011 we were fortunate to discover Bald Head Island. We were looking for a vacation home on the Outer Banks for over a year and could not find what we were looking for. Purely by good fortune we came across a link to Bald Head Island, NC. We did some research, contacted a Realtor, purchased a lot and flew down to see the Island, in that order. We had never even been to NC before. We fell in love with this beautiful Island, it was EXACTLY what we had been searching for! Our original plan was to wait four years and then build our dream home. However, we couldn't wait! We were passionate about the Island, it's wildlife, the life style, and the conservation/preservation of this enchanting barrier Island. We got to work immediately; hand picked our Builder, Architect and Designer to help us make our dream home a reality. We could not be any happier with our decision! We know now that it was fate that we found BHI and not an accident.
この宿泊施設の特徴
We especially appreciate the casual, relaxed lifestyle of the Island, friendly vacationers/ residents, the varied environments of this spectacular Island and the wildlife. This past summer we were fortunate to see a loggerhead turtle's nest boil....amazing!
