Awesome house and hosts!

We had a great time staying at Morning Light. Harper and Plunkett were very welcoming and always just a phone call away. Will definitely try to get back some day :)

Great stay!

We stayed at Morning Light with my adult sons and their girlfriends. The house is made to have family. The common areas are inviting and make for great dinners and game nights. The rooms provide space and privacy. Location is close to beach and the Mercantile. Highly recommend.

The breathtaking tree house that never ends

When you walk up to this house you will be amazed by the decor and every detail of your stay. The house is huge and surrounded by the maritime forest. We enjoyed the house and the island and we await the opportunity to be able to come again.

Beautiful, serene, immaculate

We loved staying at Morning Light even though the weather didn’t cooperate during our weekend trip. The house is gorgeous, with everything we needed and more. Comfortable beds. Peaceful wooded setting. Incredible architecture, decor, and furnishings. The host was friendly, attentive and helpful throughout! Would highly recommend!!

About the host

Hosted by Harper Peterson

We have been enjoying Bald Head Island since its inception and we have enjoyed watching it grow. Our family has grown up spending summers and holidays enjoying the majestic scenery and all the Bald Head has to offer. We chose to purchase and build in the Maritime Forrest for its privacy and calming affect. We've accumulated ideas and artifacts throughout our travels that have inspired our design for the home and we hope you will enjoy as much as we have.

Why they chose this property

The Maritime Forrest is quietly nestled near the center of the island and offers beautiful privacy while being in close proximity to the beaches and all that Bald Head has to offer. This home and property certainly is a "must see"!
