We love this house, location, and everything about it. It has a great layout, lovely furniture, books, and just a general attention to detail. We have stayed at many houses on BHI, but this is our favorite.

Beautiful location

The house itself was exactly as pictured with many wonderful amenities. Only complaints are that the living room couches and the mattress in the crofter are well past their life expectancy.

We are happy to hear you were able to enjoy all the great amenities in this home. We have had this home professionally decorated with high end furniture and never had this complaint. The crofter has all brand new furniture since it was made as an addition a few years ago as well. We will take a look and assess if anything needs to be changed. Thank you

This home is so fun and adorably designed. We've been coming to bald head every year for about 6 years and this was our favorite place by far. Great location and the home was perfect for a big family group. We loved backing up to the golf course. We are hoping to return here every year. Loved it!

Women’s Retreat Weekend

💛💛💛🍯 This house was the absolute best for our women’s retreat weekend. We felt right at home instantly. I had a desk to work at in the lower level and there was lots of room to spread out in the beautiful great room. The quality of the home is the tippy top. So thankful to have gotten to enjoy it for a long weekend.

Gorgeous BHI retreat!

Tupelo Honey was the perfect getaway to take some overseas guests for some relaxation before the Thanksgiving holiday. The house was incredible- nicely decorated and beautifully designed. Everyone agreed that this was the nicest house we'd ever stay in. The kitchen was well appointed and there was plenty of space for 5 adults. We enjoyed afternoons on the deck and porch and especially had fun driving around in the golf carts. We would not hesitate to come back to the house again.

Beautiful home and setting

Decor simply beautiful and fun. Much care and thought went into quality materials and decorating! Location ideal for centralized access to all of the island. A disappointment was too firm bedding on all beds- some of our group really did not sleep well at all. Also seating in living area may need replacing-very low and no longer cushiony.

Peaceful Island Getaway

Tupelo Honey is a well-appointed home with a peaceful view of the golf course. Plenty of room for most families to spread out and have some private space. The kitchen had everything we needed for meal time. There was toilet paper, paper towels, dish detergent and laundry detergent to last for a long weekend. The living room furniture truly does need to be updated, it was very uncomfortable to sit on for more than 45 minutes at a time. We did have to clean off the outdoor furniture upon arrival as that had been overlooked by the cleaning service but it didn't take very long to do. We would stay at Tupelo Honey again; it has a nice central location on the island near everything. Thanks for hosting us!

Beautiful home and location

Loved everything about the home with the exception of cleanliness. The kitchen counters, cabinets and table were sticky with food residue as if they had not been wiped down. Bathroom floors needed to be swept and mopped. There were no cleaning supplies for us to clean the areas that were left unclean. The towels were washed but were not clean, as if they didn’t use enough detergent. They were folded damp and put away which left them smelling like mildew. We know the house is big and it’s a lot to clean in an afternoon but common wiping down of cabinets and counters should be standard. The furniture in the living room needs to be replaced as well, you sit on the cushions and they slide out from underneath. Aside from these things the house has a great vibe and we had a great time.

We are very sorry to hear of this. This is not up to our standards and we would have been more than happy to help with anything during your stay. We have an emergency line as well as our office being open and did not hear from you. We would love to of had the chance to rectify this.

Tupelo Honey was great!

We had a great time at Tupelo Honey. The house had everything we needed. The golf carts were very zippy, which we appreciated a great deal. The only minor downside was that some of the kitchen utensils and cookware were not clean when we arrived. But the property manager was very responsive and immediately sent out a cleaning crew.

What A Fabulous Property!

Our group of 8 ranged from ages 22 - 73 and everyone of us had a fantastic time due to to the quality and layout of the property! We had all we needed to make ourselves at home yet be on vacation. Even with a few rainy days there was room for all of us to be together yet have our own space! The quality of custom construction and superior interior decoration really made us feel special guests!!

A vacay all about Mom

We enjoyed our stay! The home is centrally located to the market, ferry, beach, club, etc. which allowed us to get anywhere we wanted quickly. The layout of the home worked perfectly for our family and we all loved the charm. Our only request for next time is that the porch and outdoor furniture be cleaned for use so the beautiful outdoors can be enjoyed. Thank you and we are looking forward to it again.

Perfect Island Escape

The house was so well appointed and laid out, it was a treat to spend a few days at Tupelo Honey. Its close to everything, the porch is a perfect spot to enjoy a cocktail while the sun sets over the golf course before making dinner in the incredible kitchen. We already can't wait to go back!

Great location - Lots of space

This is a great location on the island. The house is really spacious and had plenty of room for us to spread out. The addition of the guest crofter is also a really great addition. Our only complaint was the cleanliness when we arrived at the house. There was trash in some of the trash cans (inside), grease on the stove, and the kitchen counters and floor had to be re-vacuumed and cleaned. I contacted BHI Services and they were apologetic and responsive.
