About this property

Park Place: On The Commons Park in Cape Fear Station, Walk to East Beach

Uniquely situated for an active vacation on this exclusive North Carolina barrier island, “Park Place” lies steps from The Commons Park, a 3-minute walk from fabulous East Beach, and a 5-minute walk from a swim, or dinner, at the elegant Shoals Club.


The house, ideal for a two-family vacation, is decorated in a timeless coastal style with comfortable bedding and furniture. The reverse floor plan features a 2nd floor screened-in porch to take advantage of the sights of the adjacent park, and the sounds of the nearby ocean.


The open 2nd floor also includes a great room, dining room, fully-equipped kitchen, ½ bath and a bunk room (two twin-over-full bunk beds). Downstairs, there is a master bedroom (king) and two additional bedrooms (queen), all with en suite bathrooms and Smart TVs.


A separate crofter features a bedroom (queen), mini-kitchen, pull-out sofa, Smart TV, and full bath, all situated above a cart garage, which houses (2) 6-seat golf carts (both on maintenance contracts, to ensure reliable and care-free transportation around the island), as well as bicycles, beach chairs and beach toys. Between the house and crofter is a patio with a table as well as charcoal and gas grills.


Additional amenities include membership (available for separate purchase) at the Bald Head Island Club (including golf) and Shoals Club, outdoor shower, hammock, high chair, porta crib, front porch rocking chairs, linens, and a local property manager who can take of any concerns or issues promptly.


This property rents Saturday-Saturday during June, July and August.


If the island is closed to short-term rentals due to a hurricane we will refund in full.

Classic Bald Head House

Just as the title states. Very nice place with the classic bald head feel, nestled in a bunch of palms and natural brush. Front porch is perfect for watching kids play in the green space across the street. Plenty of room and comfortable. 2 6-seat golf carts that are in good condition. Lots of chairs and beach toys for kids and the beach is a 1 minute ride away.

Perfect place to stay

We were very happy with this house. The location is great and the house was very clean and comfortable. The photos don’t do it justice. We were really happy with how well equipped the house and kitchen were and the two six seater golf carts worked great. I would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful Family Vacation

This was a wonderful house to stay in for a week at BHI. The home looks exactly as it shows on VRBO. The kitchen was well stocked for all of our family meals. We had 9 people staying and had plenty of room for everyone! Sharon the owner was very helpful and always answered my questions quickly.

Amazing stay with the family at Park Place!

Just returned from a great week with the family at BHI - Park Place (31st visit to BHI). The ferry to the island was a little challenging due to Covid limitations but once we settled into the house all the stress disappeared. The house was very clean and well appointed (including a coffee grinder). Location was perfect for East beach and Shoals club access. Great week with the family . Looking forward to future visits.

Great house and location

House is very clean and roomy. We had eight people and a baby. Plenty of space for everyone. The outside of the house and the porch furniture needs cleaning. Golf carts could be updated. We had great communication with the property manager. (there was a hurricane during our stay). Overall a great place to stay

Perfect Location and home

Another great trip to BHI! Park Place sits right in front of a quaint park that our boys played frisbee at everyday. The format of the house was perfect. Kitchen and living room up and the bedrooms down. The Crofter was a bonus. The owners obviously worked hard to provide all the necessities. Waffle iron, Tupperware, pans, cookware etc. Thanks for allowing us to stay at your place, we will certainly be back.

Convenient Location to East Beach and Turtle Conservancy

Park Place and Sharon, the owner, were amazing! Park Place is conveniently located right across from the Commons Park and perfect for playing lacrosse, throwing a baseball and even laser tag at night. The house came with two six seater golf carts and they were a must with our large family. Having TVs in most bedrooms and even the porch helped when we had several rainy and cold days. The kitchen was well appointed and even had a waffle maker to the joy of the kids! Sharon was wonderful to work with and even when we had a few snafus she was quick to address them. It was refreshing to work with a homeowner that really cared about her home and tenants. You could see in all of the wonderful details that she took great care in choosing furniture, accessories and even shower dispensers to make our stay relaxing and enjoyable. We hope we can visit BHI again in the future and that Park Place will be available! Would highly recommend!

Fabulous house in a perfect location

We thoroughly enjoyed a week break on Baldy in Jul2020, in this beautiful house. Our group was my family of two elementary school children, plus a couple of friends that joined us for a few days. The house is as shown in the photos on VRBO, so in immaculate condition and perfect for a family break. There is heaps of space, with excellent bedrooms (inc the crofter), fluffy towels and nice bathrooms. The main family/kitchen/dining room upstairs is a great space, and the enclosed veranda (upstairs) and porch (downstairs) give more room to spread out. In addition the house is brilliantly well set up with every kitchen need, games, beach stuff, etc. The house is on the east end of the island, in the trees, and very quiet by the Common. It's a 3 min walk (or 30sec cart ride) to the closest beach access, or then venture a little further to the access points along the south beach. Sharon was awesome with communication before our trip (especially helpful given the COVID impact now) and through our week in the house too. We definitely hope to go back and holiday here next summer.

About the host

Why they chose this property

For years we've been coming to Bald Head with our extended family. We had trouble finding a house that was close to the beach and could comfortably accommodate 2-3 families. After renting on the island for many years we purchased this home and had it furnished and decorated to be exactly what we were looking for.

What makes this property unique

Easy walk to East Beach (best on the island), The Shoals Club and Turtle Conservancy while facing The Commons Park. Screened in porch overlooks the park and is great for morning coffee, cocktails and even watching TV. The 5th bedroom in the crofter over the garage is perfect for grandparents, nanny or those looking for more privacy. Our kitchen is well stocked and the property is meticulously maintained.
