About this house rental

Welcome to Sheltering Oaks, a 3Br/3Ba home in the maritime forest. Our home is just a short walk to the beach (under a quarter mile) and the Maritime Market (about a third of a mile). House is on a quiet cul-de-sac, down a private driveway, and is surrounded by beautiful live oaks and sabal palms. The house features two four person golf carts, a front porch with rocking chairs, a back screened in porch with dining table and rockers, an outdoor shower. The home has an open floor plan with two large bedrooms downstairs (each with attached full bath) and one bedroom upstairs with full bath. Home is equipped with everything you need for your vacation including tvs, dvds, Wii-U, games and puzzles, a record player and plenty of records, boogie boards, beach chairs, bikes, and a Weber grill. Listen to the roar of the ocean from the screened in porch. Upstairs bedroom has a door at top of stairs for added privacy.

A guest membership to the Bald Head Island Club is available, and can be rented for guest use for an additional fee by contacting the Club directly and letting them know that you are a guest at Sheltering Oaks. The Bald Head Island Club offers elegant dining, a beautiful private golf course, newly updated pools, croquet, tennis, and a gym. (Disclaimer: Guest Memberships are limited and not guaranteed.)

With no cars and a quiet island location, Bald Head Island is a unique, relaxing destination. Accessible only by passenger ferry, this island is a true gem. Visit pristine beaches, climb to the top of the historic Old Baldy lighthouse, or ride your bike around the island's tree canopied roads. Stop for a drink overlooking the marina and dine on the waterfront. Once you visit, you'll want to return!

**There is an external security camera on the premises, however it is turned off while guest are staying.

Also please note that there are wild animals on the island. It is not uncommon to see deer, turtles, frogs, toads, coyotes, snakes, and even alligators. Please be respectful of the wildlife and be sure to keep your trash in the designated locked trash receptacles!

We enjoyed a week of island time at this great location! The home is an easy walk to the beach & short cart ride to the market. We loved the decor & bedroom sizes & layouts. Beautiful home nestled under live oaks & palms. Highly recommend & we hope to be back!

I enjoyed being in the shade but so close to the beach and Maritime Way. I would definitely stay here again!

Very clean place with great location and wonderful host. Check in and out was very easy. Not an overall perfect rating because needs some updates. Blinds have broken hardware and some were rusty. One golf cart has lots of mildew. Description said it would have playstation 4 and keurig. Should have checked before bringing K-cups and games..... Overall, though, it was a clean and comfortable place!

The house was great, well maintained. Great location, two minutes from the beach, we could hear the ocean at night. Long ramp and two large bedrooms on the first floor worked perfectly for my senior parents. What a blessing.

This was our second time staying at this house and it was just as special as the first. The seclusion is unlike any other. The two golf carts are great. And it’s in a convenient location on the island, close to the market, wine bar, and jailhouse restaurant. It is close to beach accesses as well. Kris, the host, is incredibly responsive, understanding, and just flat out awesome. Can’t recommend this house enough. We love Bald Head Island, and this house is a large part of the reason why.
