House was perfect!

We have a 5 year old and 1.5 year old and we had such a good time. The house was great; very well stocked with everything we needed. The porches are endless and we loved it. I wish the house had a battery blower to clean off the porches but no deal breaker. We had a blast and would definitely go back!

Great stay for Thanksgiving!

We had a great stay at the Tree House over Thanksgiving break! Location was great on a quiet part of the island and we loved the private entrance to a secluded part of East Beach! Most times we had the beach all to ourselves! Host was very responsive, we discovered the sink leaking upon arrival and she had someone over to repair the next morning. Also the porch spaces are amazing and beautiful views around the property. Will definitely be back!

Great Home in the Forest

This home has it all! It has an amazing view overlooking the marsh. It is only a few steps away to its own private beach. It is very secluded. The bedrooms are spread out, so everyone had their own space. The living area was large enough for our whole family.

Excellent stay

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Tree House. The owners were very kind and accommodating. The porches are amazing with gorgeous marsh views from every one. The home itself is bright and open with more than enough space for our family of four. The location on Middle Island can't be beat with private access to an uncrowded section of our favorite beachfront on the island. Would stay again!

30 year celebration

Although the bedrooms and kitchen are a bit small, the decks and property location more than make up for it. The view of the marsh from the front deck is incredibly relaxing. We were married here 30 years ago this October and all of our children and grandchildren joined us. The house worked out great!

Really great accommodation. Easy access to the beach! Plenty of space. Full kitchen. 👍😎

What a great house. Love the layout, especially the decks and balconies. We took in a sea turtle nest excavation and were lucky enough to watch approximately 25 hatchlings begin their lives. Awesome. Love this place.

The place was perfect for our family. Many wonderful porches! Very well appointed. My daughter and her boyfriend loved having the downstairs to themselves. The beach entry led us to basically an empty beach. The entire experience was great!

Middle Island Hideaway in the Tree House

This was our fourth trip to Bald Head Island. We have stayed in a different house each time. The Tree House was absolutely charming. In particular, the deck spaces afforded privacy with beautiful surroundings. The private beech access so close to the house was a real plus. Bald Head is a unique and wonderful place!

Great family getaway in Baldhead, among the trees

We had a wonderful trip. Myrita was so helpful with getting us oriented, and everything in the house was clean, comfortable, and easy to use. We loved zipping around in the golf carts and on the bikes. East Beach is so lovely, and just a short walk from the house. We got memberships at BHI and did a birding tour with the conservancy, and the kids had surfing lessons. We love BH and would definitely stay at the Treehouse again!

Perfect Location

My family and I had an amazing yet relaxing stay at Myrita’s place. The house is gorgeous; the location is perfect, and the beach is simply awesome. The outdoor shower off the master bedroom is excellent! And we had everything we needed for our stay, which is so convenient considering that you have to take a short passenger ferry ride to the island from the mainland. I’d recommend this house for anyone with teens/preteens.

Magic!

Our stay at Treehouse was as magical as the island. The owners were EXTREMELY responsive! Our cart accidentally got a flat and they had us a new cart in no time at all! The house fit 8 of us 4 adults and 4 teens well and the views were spectacular! Location was great, we visited east beach, mikes bites and conservatory within minutes! We can’t wait to come back again next year!!

Another wonderful visit

This was our third time staying at the Treehouse and it is always wonderful. The decks are great, it is always so peaceful on Middle Island and our kids love the nearby dock. We appreciated the recent upgrades, especially to the loft bed. All of the beds are comfortable, the house is always clean, and we always have everything we need for the week in the kitchen. The host was very responsive when we needed help figuring out how to work the TVs. We’ll definitely be staying at the Treehouse again in the future!

Magical!

The Treehouse and Middle Island Plantation is an absolutely magical place! We had a major storm which caused a power surge in the house while we were there. The owners were amazing at getting power, etc. restored as soon as they could. Their response and communication was fantastic. We definitely plan to return to this beautiful home next summer!
