Photos and Description of the Bald Head Island vacation house rental
3 bedrooms, 3 full en-suite bathrooms, sleeps 8

Welcome to 'Mare Tranquillitatis', our Sea of Tranquility. Formerly known as 'Serenity House', the house has been completely refreshed and updated to provide an upscale yet comfortable vacation environment for you and your family. Enjoy serene tranquility and utmost privacy amidst the live oak and palmetto trees in Bald Head's pristine Maritime Forest, but only a short golf cart ride from the deep-water marina, unspoiled beaches, championship golf, gourmet market and all of this cape island's unique amenities. The home's pastel colors, beaded board wainscoting and hardwood floors are reminiscent of classic seaside cottages, but the new chef's kitchen--featuring stainless appliances, quartz counter tops and sea glass tile--speaks to modern convenience. Guests will enjoy membership privileges at The Shoals Club, an outstanding private beach club located at the tip of Cape Fear. Privileges at The Bald Head Island Club are also available for a nominal additional charge.

The southernmost of North Carolina's cape islands, Bald Head Island is located where the Cape Fear River meets the Atlantic Ocean. A pleasant, 20-minute cruise by passenger ferry transports you from the Deep Point Marina in Southport, NC to the harbor village marina at Bald Head Island. A tram service (paid as part of your passage) will then transport you and your luggage to our home. Once on the island, transportation is by electric golf cart, bike or on foot. Children can explore independently without fear of traffic or congestion. South Beach is within easy walking distance, or you may choose to cart or cycle to The Shoals Club for pampering service and a 270 degree ocean view. Life proceeds at a pleasantly unhurried pace on this island of unspoiled nature and unparalleled oceanside beauty.

Very Comfortable

Review Submitted: January 10, 2012 Date of Stay: December 2011
This rental was wonderful! This is our third visit to Bald Head Island and this was our best rental yet! The home had all the amenities of home and was very cozy, well decorated, clean and well maintained. We were able to walk to the beach everynight and use the bikes everyday to ride around the island. The owner was wonderful and easy to deal with. Thanks for a quick New Years get away! My family is planning our next visit.
Owner's Response: Thank you Michael for the nice review. We are happy to share our place in BHI paradise. We look forward to your next visit.

Great Vacation

Review Submitted: July 12, 2011 Date of Stay: July 2011
We had a wonderful time at this house. I don't think the pictures reflect how large the space is. We enjoyed everything from the shade of the maritime forest, excellent grill out back, beach toys for the children, the bikes and quick access to all of the amenities the island offers. We have been to the Island many times but never on the week of July 4th and we couldn't have been happier that we made the decision to stay here. Thank you to the owner's for making the rental process seamless and we look forward to returning in the future for more "turtle time".

A wonderful getaway on Bald Head Island!

Review Submitted: June 21, 2011 Date of Stay: June 2011
Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sharon Corbett's home. Sharon was patient with all of our questions given that it was our first trip to the island.

The home is conveniently situated to the marina, Bald Head Island Club, and beach access, and just a little further to the market and the wonderful Shoal's Club. The house is clean, very nicely decorated, and feels very new, with one of the best-stocked kitchens and some of the most comfortable sofas and beds I've ever enjoyed in a rental property. The house is particularly good for a family with two sets of grown children, as it has two bedrooms with queen beds in addition to the king, whereas I find many rentals are 1 K, 1 Q, and then 2 twin beds.

We are already planning our next trip to Bald Head Island and would absolutely stay in this house again.
