NEW lithium GOLF CARTS, Renovated and newly Furnished Welcome to Palm Paradise
SUMMER WEEKS are Sunday to Sunday and only book direct with me, so please send me an INQUIRY, not a booking request if you would like to book a 2025 Summer week!! I am happy to book direct any other times of the year as well.
Nestled in the Maritime Forest of Bald Head Island surrounded by lush Palms and ancient Live Oaks you will find this fully renovated, newly furnished home featuring a bunk room and plenty of space to make memories. Its central location, just minutes on a bike or golf cart to the market, beaches, BHI Club and marina makes it perfect to explore all the island has to offer.
You can hear the waves crashing as you sit on the large front porch that stretches across the front of the home while taking in the view of the Palm trees and relaxing with your loved ones. From both the front door and the screened porch you enter the main living area with plenty of natural light coming from the 2 story living room which flows into the large eat in dining area with a built in bench and a new, fully stocked gourmet kitchen. There is one bedroom and full bathroom downstairs, and 2 more bedrooms with their own full bathrooms upstairs as well as a laundry room.
Additional amenities include: 1 newer four seater golf carts and 1 newer six seater golf cart both which have new(2025) lithium batteries that charge fast and run longer than regular lead acid batteries, 6 beach chairs, 8 bikes, 1 baby seat for bike and 1 third wheel, sand toys, pack n play and a baby chair(wooden without a tray). There is also both a Kurig and regular coffee makers. This home has been professionally decorated and the owner is mother of six children so it is fully stocked for families with toys and games for all ages.
Our home has the option of the Bald Head Island Club house membership which allows you access to GOLF, all of the pools, playgrounds, and all 3 restaurants! This is purchased by you directly through the club for an additional fee. This is the pool.
We purchased this home in 2020 and have completely renovated and newly furnished each space in the home to bring beauty and tranquility to your vacation. All linens are professionally serviced and provided with your stay and there are new luxury hybrid mattresses in each bedroom. We are excited to share our love of Bald Head Island and especially our special place on the island with you!
A personal note from the owners:
Welcome to our little piece of Paradise, Palm Paradise! We live in Apex, North Carolina just outside of Raleigh and we have six children ages 18, 16, 14, 12, 10 and 5, three boys and three girls. We have been coming to Bald Head Island for the past 8 years. We are so grateful that we found Bald Head Island when our children were small. They have had the chance to grow up coming here, there is no other place like Bald Head Island. It is a very special place for us.
When we step onto the Ferry we leave behind the chaos of our daily lives and Bald Head Island is a place we can be fully present. There is something special about having no cars and being fully immersed in nature that allows you to breath and just be. As soon as we arrive our children are off on their own exploring on their bikes and enjoying freedom to be kids in nature. We spend our days at the beaches playing games, surfing and making sand castles, then we head over to the club and spend late afternoons playing in the pool, playground and sunbathing while grabbing some pre dinner snacks. We usually have something in the crockpot or eat dinner at one of the restaurants at the club or marina. We round out our evenings with family games around the dining room table or we all sit on the huge sectional and watch a movie together.
There's always a trip or two to the market and shopping is a regular stop for the girls at the four clothing shops, of which thier favorite is Island Passage. The ice cream stops are a daily bike ride for us all! My kids favorite is the loco pops at the marina while we watch the yachts roll in and out. The kids usually pair off and go on their own for these adventures. We often go watch the sunsets together and the teenagers love these Instagram photos!
There is the weekly Turtle Trot 5k, which is open to everyone and benefits the Conservancy (plus you get a great t-shirt for participating). You can follow all of the turtle nest hatchings and excavations, which is an incredible opportunity for all ages to experience nature firsthand. There are bird outings, kayaking, surfing, paddle boarding, fishing and even night rides to monitor the sea turtle nests with the interns. There are countless activities through the BHI Club as well, from kids' camps, to family games and holiday special events. After all of this activity, don't forget there is a full-service spa to pamper you, too!
Over the years we have created our rhythms of activities we do on the island, as well as quiet time too. We spent time on the porch listening to the waves and watching the sunsets. Our little ones love to climb the ancient oaks surrounding the house. This time with our family is priceless. When we are on the island time goes slower and is more intentional. We are so grateful to have this small part of the island as our own and are excited to share it with you.
This is our vacation home, and we have prepared it to make it yours as well. We have rented many homes on the island, and have learned what we believe a great vacation home should have. We have worked hard to ensure our home has all the luxuries that we would want in an exceptional beach vacation home. As a parent of 6 I would know what it’s like to haul all the stuff this sized family would need for a successful beach vacation and I have tried to minimize this for our guests.
