Coming Fall 2024: Brand New 5.5 Bedroom (plus optional 2nd crofter to add a 6th bedroom + sauna!).


Please note that we spend family time on BHI each summer and may not be able to commit to certain summer weeks being available until we finalize our extended family summer availability schedule, usually by March at which time we will show all available and unavailable weeks.

Our 5.5 bedroom home & crofter is great for two or three families (fits three families of 2+2 very comfortably). The bed configuration is:
Main 4BR House: 1. K, 2. Q, 3. T + T-Trundle, 4. T x 2,
Crofter: Q plus loft w/T x 2
If you are a multi-family group, the crofter (with a Queen plus a loft with two Twins) is great for a family with two kids that wants to both be with the group but also some privacy - it has a full bath, dorm refrigerator, microwave & coffee pot (ladder access loft in crofter, so loft is not for the very little ones).

We have a 2nd Crofter with a separate lock out as an optional add-on for bigger groups. With this add-on it is 6.5 bedrooms, sleeps 14 in beds. Ask for details!

For those who savor a meal at home, there is plenty of seating for all and our galley-style kitchen is completely appointed with everything you'll need to make a memorable meal, complete with an unforgetable view.

Hop on one of our two new Onward Club Car golf carts, both with high speed motors. (They will go 25+ MPH so please do not exceed the 18MPH BHI speed limit!) We spend time on the beach Every Single Day on BHI, and appreciate the open air golf cart ride there and back immensely BUT we also have the best of both worlds because we come home to the impressive and ever changing tapestry - that awe-inspiring Creek View. We think of it as an fantastic live painting that changes every day.

We enjoy watching Egrets, Ibis and Osprey from inside the home or while sitting in the broad screened porch. We watch our kids fish, crab, cast net, kayak and swim right out front daily. And what a treat to watch our 10 year old son dash straight out to the dock every morning for an hour or more barely remembering the existence of TV or video games.

We can walk left on the boardwalk out front and we are at the boat launch in about 2 mins.. Alternately we go the other way on the boardwalk with our first cup of coffee in hand every morning for an spectacular and inspiring 10 min. creek view board-'walk'.

And, with painless access to the floating dock you can bring or rent your boat! Or, enjoy a paddle on the creek by canoe, SUP or kayak, all rentable on island (an absolute favorite activity for our whole family).

Come enjoy our family home on the creek, we think you will adore it as much as we do!

Please note that we spend family time on BHI each summer and typically cannot commit to certain weeks being available until we finalize our summer schedule, usually by March at which time we will show all available and unavailable weeks.

Tips to get the perfect vacation rental experience:

Finding your best deal:

• To get the best value, change your group's trip dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer pleasant temperatures, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wrightsville Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• The sooner you can book a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are booked early. Reserving your rental up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Ask your host or property manager if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites often offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Wrightsville Beach area magazine upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guides contain deals for local accommodations and attractions.

Selecting the best vacation rental in the Wrightsville Beach area:

• Choose a group leader, choose your dates, and select a max budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. All New In 2024 CreekFront! Dock! Views! 5.5 Bedroom + 2nd crofter\/sauna option has 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Wrightsville Beach vacation rental search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is often available online. Otherwise, email the host before reserving your home. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds.
• Is your group looking for unique amenities? Most websites include search filters for amenities.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. .
• Some rental properties allow pets, and some don't. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the host about allowable breeds and types before booking.

Considerations for your stay:

• Add the host's information to your phone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Document any issues with the rental during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be useful if a dispute is filed.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable vacationers disrupting your peaceful home. Employ the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would've not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can often help. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are away, just like you would back home.
• Re-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items at check-out. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental one final time and look for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a excellent vacation? Most rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your property and/or property management company was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was imperfect and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
