4 Br Private Vacation Home Vacation Rental In Bald Head Island, North Carolina

Unwind and relax this summer at Marsh Mellow! This 4-bedroom, 3 1/2 bath house is available for rent for the first time. Located at the end of Leeward Court, this house boasts some of the best views on Bald Head Island.

The main house features three second-floor bedrooms, including a master suite with a king bed, soaking tub and separate shower, and a terrace overlooking the marsh and creek. The guest room with a queen bed shares a bathroom off the hallway with the kids' bedroom, which has two twin beds (or a pullout queen sofa bed if your guests prefer to sleep on that). The second floor also has a separate office, with a great view of Old Baldy. On the first floor, enjoy an open floor plan with two sitting areas, a dining area, seating at the kitchen bar, and sliding glass doors that open onto the deck. The living area is filled with books and a wide assortment of games and puzzles for your family and friends to enjoy. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you will need for your week at Marsh Mellow. The first floor also has a full laundry room and a half bath.

In addition to the main house, the crofter over the garage is newly finished, with a queen bed, shower, separate toilet, small kitchenette, and views that make you feel like you're floating above the creek. If you prefer an outdoor shower, that's available too, located underneath the crofter in the yard. In the garage, you'll find two 4-passenger golf carts, along with beach chairs, sand toys, boogie boards, and three bicycles, allowing you to enjoy outdoor life on the island. You can easily rent additional bicycles or equipment for water sports on the creek at the nearby Riverside Adventure Company.

Speaking of the outdoors, Marsh Mellow has a lovely front porch that is typically shaded and features a bench, two chairs and a hammock (our kids love the hammock). The yard is fenced in, and the large deck off the side of the house is what makes the outdoor area truly special. With separate sitting and dining areas (including a new dining table and chairs not featured in the photos), along with an outdoor grill, it is the perfect spot to enjoy time with family and friends, taking in the beauty all around you. If you sit on Marsh Mellow's deck during the day, you'll see ibis, herons, pelicans and sometimes even dolphins frolic in the marsh. At night enjoy the view of Old Baldy lit up as well as a spectacular view of the nighttime sky.

A few additional notes:
*There is no smoking anywhere in or around the property. Please help us maintain a smoke-free environment.

*Unfortunately, we cannot allow pets. We sometimes travel to Bald Head Island with our three cats, and we do not want any other pets in the house. (For people with cat allergies, we clean the house thoroughly, but be aware that there are sometimes feline visitors at the house when we're there ourselves.)

*High speed internet and Wifi are included. The house has a Sonos One music speaker (kitchen) and three televisions (1st floor living room, 2nd floor kids' bedroom, Crofter), each with a streaming device (Roku or Amazon Fire Stick). Subscriptions to streaming services not included.

*Membership to the Bald Head Island Club is not included in the base rental rate. Guest temporary membership may be available for separate purchase. Contact the Bald Head Island Club directly at (910) 457-7300. Guest memberships are limited this summer, so we can't guarantee that a guest membership will be available for your rental week.

*A guest Shoals membership is not available at Marsh Mellow.

*Reservations for the tram from the ferry book up early each summer. The good news is that we often avoid using the tram, choosing instead to walk to Marsh Mellow, then taking one of the golf carts back to the ferry to pick up our luggage. Feel free to reserve a tram if that's better for you and your guests.

*By booking the property, you accept the terms of the included rental agreement.

If you have any questions about amenities, appliances and supplies in the house, or anything else related to your trip, please contact us before you travel to Bald Head Island. We want to make sure you have a great time and feel at home at Marsh Mellow.
