About this house rental
'Ocean Beach' resides at 21 Silversides Trail directly across the street from the beach on a cul-de-sac. WHAT A VIEW! We are midway down the South Beach, near the Maritime Market, fire station, boutique shops and almost exactly between The Bald Head Island Club and The Shoals Club.
Our new home got a thorough going-over and is redecorated, repainted, and rebranded in the owners style. Our luxurious new bedding is sure to please everyone. There are two master bedrooms, all four bedrooms have king beds with a twin in the upstairs master. Each bedroom has new 32' flat screen TVs.
Please remember to make reservations with the Bald Head Island Ferry to arrive and depart. Your ferry ticket also provides you with tram service but is not automatically added to tickets. Tram reservations require a distinct booking from the ferry to 21 Silversides Trail. Arrival may not be before 4 PM and Departure must be by 10 AM on the day of Departure.
Guests wishing optional Temporary Guest Memberships at The Bald Head Island Club and or The Shoals Club should contact them immediately upon booking our home. This is done by visiting their respective websites and following instructions for Guest Membership, there is an extra fee for each Club. The host has no responsibility in the Guest Membership quest other than assuring The Club(s) we are hosting a particular guest.
All linens and towels are provided. We have wireless high speed internet service.
The view from the upper deck is just spectacular and allows us to see from the Cape Fear River to Frying Pan Shoals. Dolphins are frequent visitors to 'our' beach and are easily seen from all 3 porches.
In the garage you will find a 4 passenger and a 6 passenger golf cart. You MUST be a licensed driver to operate the golf carts on Bald Head Island. The shaded protected area that is the entry to our home, also serves as a place to escape the sun in one of the hammock. There is a sandy play area under the house for those little ones who have grown tired of our sun drenched beaches and a hot outside shower to get rid of the sand.
The Maritime Market is quite amazing considering they must bring everything to the Island on a barge. The selections are extremely good and the service is excellent.

The family had a wonderful time on Bald Head Island. The house was great and the host was extremely responsive when we had an air conditioner problem. Would rent again

Great location. Really nice house. Hugh was very responsive. Would stay there again.
Too bad we were there the week of a tropical storm as the island shut down for a few days and we had a lot of rain/wind. I strongly suggest either avoiding a trip during hurricane season or have insurance if traveling this time of year.

This was our 25th year visiting BHI and this property made our anniversary even more enjoyable. The view was amazing along with the sunsets. The house was well stocked with essentials and had every appliance or cooking utensil you could imagine. Plenty of rooms and decks if you wanted to sneak away and read a book or take a little snooze. Was nice to have plenty of beach chairs, boogie boards and a beach umbrella (you do not have to worry about bringing any of that). The host was always available if needed. I had the pleasure of meeting the host as we were leaving - Hugh thank you for letting us enjoy your wonderful house on our special 25th anniversary on BHI - the most wonderful place in NC!!!

4.0 / 5.0
Overall good stay and solid house. Great decks and outdoor areas. Location is fine. Good supplies and toys and chairs and carts. House is a little tired on the inside, lots of little homeowner type fixes. Metal brackets holding together rocking chairs, spray painted areas of rust, microwave has to be pried open, etc. Not a big deal but at the price bracket a little surprising.
The upstairs master has a strange opening over the living room which is apparently to be able to see the ocean. But it means that if anyone is trying to sleep up there they will be woken up by any noise downstairs…can’t watch tv as a family or play cards in the living room, etc. I found that to be a fairly big deal. Would strongly recommend at least installing a window there.
We enjoyed our stay overall and would recommend the house.

I just want to say Thank You to Hugh for facilitating our stay at this beautiful house and property. The location is a very short walk to the beach and very convenient to BHI Club, the Market, and the Shoals Club. The appointments in the kitchen were the best we've experienced, and in every way the home exceeded our expectations!

The property was great! The location was perfect! The house was clean and extremely comfortable. It had great entertaining space, great relaxing space, a spacious property for sure! The property owner was easy to communicate with. The house was perfect for 4 couples. Each had their own en- suite. Beds were comfortable! I would rent this property again and again. !

Do not hesitate to book Ocean Beach! It is in the perfect location - just across the dunes from the beach, unobstructed view of the ocean, right down the road from the main shopping area. The house has everything you will need and the furnishings are gorgeous. We spent many relaxing and pleasurable hours on the front decks. We were particularly pleased with the completely outfitted kitchen, including a wide array of spices and condiments. We've stayed in many beach homes that didn't even supply salt and pepper, so not having to transport/buy these necessities was a joy. Owner was immediately responsive and helpful. You will have a great beach vacation at this house! We sure did.

Repeat visit! 5 stars all around. Ocean Beach is a beautifully appointed, exceptionally clean and well stocked home ideally located on BHI’s South Beach. Owners are super thoughtful and just lovely people. You will have a wonderful time here!

We really enjoyed our stay! The house is nicely decorated, comfortable and very well-equipped for cooking and relaxing. The upper deck is the perfect place to view the sunset and the screened porch off the main bedroom is the perfect morning coffee spot. We enjoyed the ocean views and the very close beach access. The owners were very informative and responsive before and during our stay. We will definitely stay at Ocean Beach again.

We came to BHI for a large family reunion. This was one of a few properties we stayed in. My sister and I and our families stayed here and we cant say enough about how perfect our stay was. Not only is the home the perfect beachfront home for views of the ocean, porch rocking and reading, and late night movies, but it was also stocked with all the essentials - boogie boards, beach chairs, island carts, beach towels, comfortable beds, a washer and dryer and plenty of space. The kitchen is well stocked with everything needed to cook and there were two refrigerators for plenty of room for food and cold beverages. Hugh was very responsive and helpful, and the location is idyllic. We only wish we could have stayed longer - but we will be back!

This was our fourth trip to BHI, and our first time at this house. We have stayed in many vacation homes over the past 30 years throughout NC and VA. This is one of the best we have stayed in. The location is perfect - easy access to the beach and the market. But the house itself is so well stocked. Everything that you can imagine you might need it has. Kitchen - every pot, pan, dish, spice or plate you might need. Bar - every glass, plastic cup, blender, mixer you might need they have in volume. Coffee bar - grinder, filters, sugar all right there. Beach - from beach towels to nice beach chairs to boogie boards - plenty of all. Grills - a gas one that the ignition actually worked on, and a charcoal one - both in good shape. Beds - most comfortable beds we have experienced at a vacation house. The house itself is well designed - decks in the sun, decks in the shade, and a screened in porch. And on top of it all the owner it very communicative and easy to deal with. Not only do we highly recommend this house, we have already booked it again for next year. Can't wait to get back!

Hugh is an incredibly responsive and generous host. This house is the most well-equipped beach house we’ve ever rented - beach chairs, boogie boards, sand toys galore plus the most well-equipped kitchen you could ask for. Sunny deck, shaded deck, screened deck or Sandy play area with kids swings and a porch swing, you have every option imaginable for family space or quiet space. Living room and dining room are great for family games, and the second fridge in the garage really helps!

Incredible Beach House on BHI
Had a wonderful time on BHI’s South Beach. This house was impeccable, thoughtfully appointed and fully stocked with everything you need. We cook constantly when on vacation and had everything needed to cook and bake to our heart’s content. We enjoyed exceptional views of the beach, sunrises and sunsets from all decks and porches. The owners were terrific and quickly responsive to all questions. We highly recommend this house!

Perfect Seaside Getaway
This is our second time staying at this home and it was another incredibly special time making memories along the beach with our family. I love to cook and I never find a vacation home that can accommodate all my cooking equipment needs but this home has it all! We cooked delicious meals each night, spent our days strolling and playing along the beaches and nights were spent on the balcony stargazing to the sounds of the waves crashing nearby. The hosts have truly thought of every detail to make your stay as comfortable and pleasant as possible. We have stayed at many homes on BHI but none as perfect as this. Thank you for another wonderful visit, Hugh and Rebecca!

Phenomenal.....we cannot wait to go back!
This was our first time to Bald Head Island and we could not have asked for a better place for our family vacation! The proximity to the calm South Beach and the set up for young children was PERFECT! The house was beautiful and well taken care of! We are already looking at our calendars to figure out when we can return....our host, Hugh, made sure we had everything we need for a perfect vacation! Highly recommend to any family! :)

BHI family getaway
Our six adults and three children fit into this property perfectly. Nicely appointed and equipped, clean, multiple patios with beautiful views with a very short walk to the beach on a quiet cul-de-sac. Kind of pricey but worth it!

Great Week in BHI
We had a wonderful time in this home. It is centrally located to access either end of the island (town and East Beach.) The home has a beach access right in front of it too so you're only a short walk away to South Beach. The view from the top deck is amazing. Kitchen was well stocked with whatever you need should you like to cook.

just what we needed
great location (proximity to market, beach, marina) & great views. views from the middle level are wonderful and the crow's nest on the 3rd floor is an added bonus. the house is well cared for, organized, and with quality accessories in the kitchen, bathrooms, and everywhere in between. it is obvious that the owners take great pride in the ownership of the house. we come to bald head every year and this house ranks at the top of our list; we will absolutely stay here again!

South beach
Great location ….end of a culdesac….boardwalk right there. Has the best high porch sitting area on the street. Just awesome when sun goes down. Master is very private and away from the hustle of the house.

Great House Dream Location
LOVED, LOVED, LOVED the house. Very comfortable home with many luxury touches. Upper deck is the best view of Ocean as well as outdoor shower has HOT and cold running water --- so nice. All bedrooms were very nice so no one felt like they got the short end of the stick. I would definitely rent again. Added bonus owners are super friendly too!

Beautiful week at Ocean Beach!
We had such a wonderful stay at Ocean Beach. The house had absolutely everything you might need, and the location can’t be beat. We spent lots of time on the beautiful deck, slept well in the comfy beds. and enjoyed exploring the island from the perfectly central location. Thanks so much for having us!

Beautiful home, exceptional views!
This is a beautiful home with gorgeous beach views and fabulous porches. I have rented several houses on BHI in the past 10 years, and this one has quickly become our family's favorite. The ocean views are truly rare for BHI, as the house is situated on a gentle curve of the coastline allowing for more expansive beach and water views. Additionally, the upstairs porch is higher than most BHI porches and provides for a truly exceptional vista.
The quality of the furnishings indoors and out, as well as all linens, is excellent. The outside shower is a treat, and the grills were in good working condition. My only wish list item would be to add a traditional glass window to the window-sized opening in the upstairs bedroom to help with the noise from below.
The owner is incredibly professional, pleasant and responsive. I can't say enough good things about our overall experience, and we definitely hope to rent this home in the future.

Picture perfect relaxation
This house has it all — unbelievable beachfront views from multiple decks, super comfy accommodations, and well-stocked everything (there are more towels, chairs, boogyboards and gas grills than you will probably ever need!)
The house is in an ideal location near the market but in a quiet cul de sac. Hugh was super responsive to questions and even let us keep our bags at the place and use the porch post checkout for a few hours since we booked a later ferry.
Highly recommend and looking to come back next year!

Comfort and convenience
We so enjoyed our stay at BHI. The location of this home is perfect; you can see and hear the ocean from the many decks, it's directly across from the beach access, and it's also right at the bottom of Maritime Way - a quick jaunt to the grocery store. The owners have outfitted the home with everything: towels (an abundance in every bathroom), beach towels, chairs and beach gear, and more dishes and utensils than any large group would need. The kitchen has every small electric you could want (even a rice cooker!), along with tons of glasses, several full sets of dishes and a variety of cooking utensils. You seldom find a rental that supports real cooking at the beach. I always bring my own knives, but other than that, the house had it all. The dining room seated our crowd of 8 comfortably, with perfect views of the ocean. The owner, Hugh, was also quick to respond to questions and requests, and was kind and flexible. The house is comfortable and cozy. If you're looking for "fancy", this isn't it. But comfortable and easy, a resounding yes. One word of caution about the upstairs bedroom: it has an open "window" with only a pull-down shade for privacy and sound control. The window is directly over the family room, so if your group has some late-night folks and someone is trying to sleep upstairs, that will be an issue. You also can hear conversations from that bedroom downstairs in the family room. An easy solution would be to install some safety glass in that little window for better privacy and elimination of sound. Aside from that, we were completely delighted with the home and appreciated the obvious attention to carefree, ease of use the owners have put into the home.

Excellent Home on BHI
We have stayed on Bald Head four times, now; and this was our most pleasant stay thus far. The host and owner of the property is excellent all around. He sent weather updates and had fantastic communication as well as being kind and a wealth of helpful information. The home is in an ideal location just steps away from the dune walkover. The home is clean, thoughtfully appointed with comfortable beds, quality linens, nice lighting, quality hand soaps, has a great layout allowing for good flow as well as privacy while making the best use of natural light. The kitchen is fully equipped with anything you’ll need. We visited the Maritime Market and cooked almost all our meals in-house and I was pleasantly surprised to have everything I needed for food prep and to cook. I can’t say enough positive things about both this home and the owner/host. We loved watching sunsets from the balcony as the kids ate ice cream sundaes and storytelling under the starry sky as we listened to the waves. Watching a pod of dolphins off the shoreline was a cherry on the top of the experience for our happy crew! Thank you, Hugh! You have a magical spot nestled on beautiful BHI.

Hurricanes, tornadoes, and fun fun fun!
Hurricanes, tornadoes, and fun fun fun! We absolutely loved use property. Stay there seem to make all the bad stuff in the world go away. He was very helpful to us.
