We had a wonderful trip! Three families with small children fit perfectly. Plenty of space for indoor and outdoor activities. We can’t wait to come back!
We had a great trip! Communication with the hosts was excellent and the home was perfect for our group. The hosts were very responsive to an issue that came up during our stay.
The home was beautiful, spacious, and had everything we needed. Good views on great porches. Very comfortable beds! Golf carts worked well and garage had lots of fun and useful things. Great host that took care of us well. Excellent stay overall!
We stayed a week here and the house was perfect. Incredibly clean and in an ideal location (close to BHI club, market). House was also well stocked with chairs and beach equipment. Communication from hosts was outstanding. Super responsive and friendly. Highly recommend.
We and our friends are frequent visitors to Bald Head and when I searched for a home that fit our needs, lots of conversation opportunities and a big kitchen were " a must". With this property both of these references were well met.
This is a spectacular home. The home is appointed with comfortable furniture and is spotless! The roomy porches provide such relaxing times sitting outside. Communication with the host is instantaneous and check in was a breeze. We will definitely make this our go to house on Bald Head.
This property is beautiful and very well-equipped. We had everything we needed for a fun, relaxing vacation. There are 2 nice golf carts, plenty of beach chairs & umbrellas. Lots of time was spent on the porches, even advantage of a few naps on the hammock. We will definitely rent this house again!
We had the best time on BHI and this home was perfect in every way! The house is perfectly located- equal distances to the market, marina, beach & BHI club. The house was stocked with everything we could ever need. We had an issue with one of the golf carts and Edie responded immediately and took care of it. We plan to go back to BHI again and would definitely stay in this house!
We had a wonderful stay at Good Idea House! Well maintained with ample kitchen applications and utensils. Loved the large porch for dining and coffee with the fresh breeze. Kids enjoyed the beach gear, game cabinet and ping pong table. Carts and beach chairs were great. Thank you for sharing your home!
I recently spent a week at the Good Idea with my wife, 3 children and spouses and our granddaughter. It was a perfect setup for us and we had a wonderful time. Communication with the owner's reps was fast and easy. The main floor had many options for gathering in small groups or with the whole family. The location on the island seemed remote yet it was minutes from the marina, the club and multiple beaches.I would recommend this house and BHI to anyone looking for a beautiful beach getaway with many options for things to do, places to eat and a friendly island culture.
