The process could t have been easier and it was great to see that the house was exactly as represented in the listing. Very clean home with all the amenities we needed during our stay. Although we didn’t use the crofter, I can see that this would have been great for those with more guests. We love staying in the Maritime Forest and this was the most ideal location, smack in the middle of the island and an easy walk to the grocery store and the new coffee shop. Our kids enjoyed the bikes and we made use of both golf carts. We hope to stormy here again the next time we visit Bald Head.

We had a wonderful stay. The home was perfect for 6 of us-3 teens, 2 moms, and grandma-foe a quick getaway to Bald Head Island. We only had time to stay 2 nights (but we’d love to come back for longer), and appreciate the flexibility. We were able to check in early and use the golf carts, and everything was prepared so well for our arrival. It’s a comfortable home. The only issue we had (it’s a small one) was a bicycle chain that fell off a few times when one of our teens rode behind us while we drove a golf cart. We had a great time watching the UNC/Duke game on TV, with great reception and many channels to select. The furnishings were lovely and the beds were comfy and the kitchen and game closet were well stocked. Thanks for sharing your vacation home with us !

PLENTY of room here!! My husband, four teenagers and I really enjoyed this beautiful, clean, and well cared for home. This was our first time to BHI, and we will absolutely stay here again! With the 2 four person golf carts, it was perfect for the older teens, and my husband and I. We also enjoyed the convenience of a short walk to the Maritime Market for breakfast, wood fired pizza, and drinks/snacks for the kids. While I cannot personally vouch for the bunk style beds, the king, and queen beds were all very comfortable, as was the bedding itself. We enjoyed taking turns on the bikes, and riding around the island. As it was only the beginning of the tourist season, we enjoyed the friendliness and waves from other residents, and especially the staff at The Bean Bar and Horizons restaurant. We spent some time in the Island Passage and Bald Island blues stores and found the clothing selection and staff fantastic! BHI and Fortress of Solitude are our new favorite places! Looking forward to booking more than just a quick weekend! Thank you for sharing your home!

I’ve been visiting BHI for nearly 20, and this house was one of my favorites. The house was very clean, roomy, and private. The location next to the Market was so convenient, as it only took us a second to run up for things needed. The bedding / furniture was comfortable and high quality. I loved everything about the property and I’ll be sure to rent it again. Thanks so much!

The Fortress of Solitude is just that- a quiet place to shut out the noise and busyness of the city and just relax, recharge, and enjoy all that Bald Head has to offer from a central location. We've been to this property before and it suited our needs so well, that we booked it again! Our family of 8 (2 little ones, 2 teens, mom/dad, and grandparents) had a wonderful week of beach visits, strolls around the island, and playing games around the table. The house is clean, comfortable, well-equipped, and we'll be back!

Had a great time at a beautiful property. House was clean, comfortable, and in a good location. One downfall is that the listing stated there would be a pack and play but there wasn’t one. Contacted the property manager and one was delivered the next morning. Overall would highly recommend this property!!

It was nice but did jot get a feeling of real clean Sheets in king had blood and over garage room also had blood on pillows and wall and no sheets Although the housekeeping dept rectified most issues it did not have a clean feeling in master bedroom bathroom Master bath had German roaches coming up from sheets wet drain maintenance came and sprayed Bathroom upstairs the shower did not drain and maintenance did come and fix the staff was wonderful and rectifying the situation but still was difficult on arrival to find all these things other than that I’d have to say it’s a very nice house I would rated probably a 3 1/2

We had a good time

We love Bald Head and the Fortress of Solitude was perfect for our family (ages 6 to 66). A short golf-cart trip to the beach, an even shorter trip to the market, and an extremely clean house made for a wonderful trip. We’ll be back!

Great location! Tastefully decorated. Well stocked. Enjoyed the screend in dining area. Kids loved the bunk room! Would stay here again!

What a wonderful time we have had while vacationing at Fortress of Solitude! It is obvious the owners put a lot of heart and care into their property and genuinely want you to enjoy your stay. We have stayed at this property twice and highly recommend! We will defintiely be back!

We had such a wonderful time at the Fortress of Solitude! Beautiful home and excellent location on the island. The owner was very responsive to any of our needs, despite being in another country. We stayed here with our three kids, ages 5, 3 and almost 1, and it had everything we needed for them. Would highly recommend!

Great place to relax with family in a very nice area of the island....very close to every thing you need.......owner was very responsive.....no problemas at all.....highly recommended

Bald Head Island is already a wonderful place to visit, but this home in particular lives up to its name. While it's on one of the "busier" through-streets on the island, it's still extremely quiet. The house itself is set back into the maritime forest, and there's plenty of seclusion and privacy in the home. The location is also very convenient for getting to the market. Sometimes we would simply walk instead of driving the included golf carts.The home itself is well equipped and comfortable for long stays, including plenty of cooking equipment, bedding, updated bathrooms, etc., as well as activities for families and children that we saw, though we were without our little ones for this trip.The owner and services company they contract with were responsive and very helpful to address our needs as they came up.You really can't go wrong with this property.
