(5BR, 4BA,SL12,2K/2TW/2Q/1D, 2 Golf Carts, Sunday Turn in Peak Season, CHECK OUT 11:00AM/CHECK IN 5:30PM) Located beside Bald Head's serene marsh, you'll find this five-bedroom, four-bath getaway down a peaceful, shaded boardwalk amongst loblollies and palms. When you reach the covered front rocking chair porch, take a second to stop and listen to the gentle breezes rustling leaves, punctuated by relaxing bird call.

As you step inside the two-story entry, you are greeted by warm hardwoods and drawn across the living area to the home's back wall of windows displaying the relaxing perspectives of the Island's estuary. These windows side this getaway's serene living space which features a fireplace, constructed-ins and egress to an oversize, water-facing wrap-around back screened porch. On the porch, you can relax on the hammock or in one of the three seating areas or appreciate a bite alfresco at one of the two dining tables-all while watching Nature's show of tides, egrets, and other wildlife. Steps down from here lead to this modest community's private dock-making it simple to fish, crab, kayak or paddleboard. Back inside, this open floor plan's close by dining space, cornered by windows, furnishes seating for nine with spots available for three more at the adjacent breakfast bar and offers another access to the screened porch. The generous kitchen provides a huge prep island, plenty of storage and has the laundry conveniently close by. On the other side of this floor are two bedrooms. The first is a bright corner room with two Twins that uses the full bath, with tub, just outside its door. The sunlit corner Primary King suite charms with its wall of windows overlooking Bald Head Creek and has its own screened porch entree. It also features a sizable, spa-like ensuite with a garden tub, shower and dual vanity and an oversize closet.

Upstairs, a cheery corner suite is outfitted with two Queens and enjoys its own ensuite with a tub/shower. There is also a second bedroom set up with two Doubles and a second Primary King suite with its own enormous full bath ensuite. All three of these upper bedrooms not only grant inspiring marsh tableaus through their windows but also deliver access to this floor's treetop deck-the ideal place to savor coffee while watching the sun rise or savor a peaceful read or peaceful nap.

Rental booking tips:

When to book & When to go:

• The earlier your group can book a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The best vacation rentals are reserved very early. Reserving your vacation property up to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental.
• Summer is high season in Bald Head Island. To get the largest rental home within budget, we recommend booking in the Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at your favorite Wilmington, NC restaurants and activities.
• Owners sometimes offer rate reductions for veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if discounts are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer their guests an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
