Fresh, New and Comfortable

Our family stay at Holly Creek Cottage was perfection! It's central location on the island made it convenient to get to everything from shops to restaurants and to the beach. The house itself is brand new and filled with amenities right down to a Kitchen Aid mixer on the counter. Truly a home away from home. Additionally the furnishings are fresh and super comfortable. For transportation two four person golf carts and bikes are on the property. We loved exploring the island every day and appreciated that our family could be accomodated on the two carts. Truly a memorable week for us! Thank you!

We loved our stay at this house! There are a few things that stand out in particular. It was incredibly clean and did not feel cluttered at all. It was well-stocked with cooking essentials and also had nice bonuses like beach chairs, bikes, and towels in case they were needed. I love the location; it’s close to the marina, the market, and the beach. The owners were easy to communicate with and extremely helpful. The only downside was that there were only two full bathrooms, but we knew that going in. I would recommend this location without any hesitation.

Best spot on the island

Been to Bald Head many times, this is one of the nicest homes I've had the pleasure of staying in. Two thumps up in a circle!

Family Reunion on BHI

We had a wonderful stay at Holly Creek Cottage. The house was as pictured and we had ample room. It was nice to have beach towels and chairs available for our use. The location was perfect and the back screen porch was ideal for nighttime visits with our family. The front porch was lovely for morning coffee and golf cart watching! The only suggestion is a better grill. The sign at the house states not to use the grill within 10 feet of the house; yet, the grill is electric (and does not work well) and has only a 5 foot cord. I would highly recommend Holly Creek Cottage for a small family stay.

Awesome stay

We had an outstanding stay. The property itself is beautifully maintained, thoughtfully designed, and truly feels like a retreat. The location couldn’t be better—convenient to everything you need while still offering plenty of privacy and relaxation. What really stood out was how well-equipped the home was; every detail seemed considered, making it easy to settle in and enjoy the stay from the moment we arrived. The outdoor spaces were just as enjoyable as the interior, perfect for unwinding after a day on the island. The iTrip team was exceptional throughout—responsive, professional, and quick to address any questions or needs. Their communication made the entire experience seamless. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a top-tier Bald Head Island getaway.

Top Notch

Our stay at Holly Creek Cottage was a top notch experience. The cottage was just completed before our arrival. Clearly, the owners spent a great deal of time making sure everything we would need during our stay was available. The place was spacious but had a very cozy feel to it. And, the beds were very comfortable. The location was convenient to the ferry and the beach. We look forward to our next relaxing Bald Head Island vacation at Holly Creek.

Holly Creek Cottage was awesome!

My week-long stay at the newly constructed Holly Creek Cottage was awesome. The kitchen is well equipped for preparing great meals. We enjoyed the adjoining family/dining room. Bedrooms are nicely furnished and comfortable. The screen porch on the back of the house overlooks the BHI golf course. The front porch was a relaxing place for drinks and conversation. Two golf carts and two bicycles made it easy for us to get around the island. I would definitely rent the cottage again for future vacations on BHI.

Absolutely worth it!

My friends and I had an absolutely wonderful time vacationing in the beautifully decorated and nicely furnished home. Whether your party is a group of adults seeking quite charm or a rambunctious family with young children, this home can accommodate everyone. We loved the location on the island and also the fact that there, through the tiny tropical “jungle” mere yards away, was a beautiful golf course! Thank you for this adventure. We will certainly be back again. Absolutely worth it!

It’s great that you enjoyed both the quiet island setting and the nearby golf course just beyond that little tropical jungle. We’d be delighted to welcome you back for another adventure.

Holly Creek Cottage: Your Luxurious Golf-Side Escape on Bald Head Island

Just returned from a magical stay at "Holly Creek Cottage," a brand-new, three+ bedroom haven nestled right alongside the golf course on exclusive Bald Head Island, and I'm already counting the days until I can return! This home perfectly embodies cozy luxury, offering an unparalleled retreat for relaxation and fun. From the moment we arrived, the thoughtful details were evident. Having two golf carts at our disposal made exploring the island's pristine beaches and charming shops an absolute breeze – a necessity on this car-free paradise. The home itself is a masterpiece of design, blending comfort with high-end finishes. The huge kitchen was a chef's dream, truly the heart of the home. Equipped with a KitchenAid stand mixer and a fantastic array of small appliances, it made preparing meals a joy. We loved gathering around the spacious island, sharing stories and delicious food. For quiet mornings with coffee or relaxing evenings with a book, the screened-in porch was our favorite spot, offering serene views and a gentle breeze. Each of the three bedrooms provided plush comfort after days filled with island adventures. Whether you're seeking a golf getaway, a family retreat, or simply a tranquil escape, "Holly Creek Cottage" delivers on every front. It's more than just a rental; it's an experience that leaves you feeling refreshed, pampered, and utterly enchanted. If you're dreaming of an exclusive island getaway with all the comforts of a five-star resort and the charm of a cozy home, "Holly Creek Cottage" is an absolute must-book.
