An Exclusive, Custom home, perfect for a large family at beautiful BHI!

We loved our vacation!! Such a nice house and the hosts were super helpful when the a/c went out, they got it fixed very quickly!!Wonderful week at BHI, we will be back!!!

We had a wonderful stay in July 2025. The house was clean and in a great central location. The house is also at the end of a cul-de-sac which was great for young kids to ride bikes/scooters. The owners responded quickly to a few minor inquiries. Overall we had a great stay!

A lovely beach home located in the maritime forest at Bald Head Island - we had eleven family members in our entourage, ranging in age from 6 to 76. We loved the house and were particularly appreciative of the long dining room table where we could gather for meals. The two golf carts get you everywhere you want to be on the island - from the pool to the beach to kayaking and climbing the Old Baldy lighthouse!The owners/managers are lovely people who have stocked the house splendidly and then added so many thoughtful touches - baskets of beach toys, flip-flops(!) and personal toiletries just in case you forgot to pack something. The kitchen is great, the beds are comfy and there’s a wonderful back porch and front porch for reading, talking or just chilling! The Shibumi was great to have on the beach and there were some beach chairs and boogie boards for guests’ use. The hosts have thought of everything!We had a wonderful vacation at Bald Head Island and we hope we will be back to island Happy in years to come!

It was perfect. Only suggestion is maybe some extra towels and places to hang extra wet towels in bathroom. This is our second year coming. Love the house.

We were on vacation during Hurricane Debbie but we made the best of the rainy weather. We visited the beach as often as possible. We rode the nice golf carts all over the island. We saw the turtle museum and the lighthouse. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen fully stocked . We definitely recommend this house to future vacationers! Bald Head Island is the best!!

What a wonderful stay at Island Happy! The house is absolutely beautiful and we love the location! The owners were so friendly and easy to work with, and the communication exceeded our expectations! The home was very well stocked and they have thought of things that we hadn't even thought about! We've been coming to BHI for 14 years and all of our family has said that this is their favorite house:) thank you for all you did to make our stay beyond wonderful--you guys have thought of everything!!

We really enjoyed our stay! The owners were so easy to work with and were extremely responsive to any questions or concerns that came along. We have been coming to the island for many years and the golf carts at this house were some of the nicest we have ever used. The screen porch on the back was very nice! This house has way more amenities in the kitchen than mentioned in the description. There was plenty of beach chairs/boogie boards and the shibumi was a plus! Lots of comfortable seating in the living room for large groups with the oversized couches and plenty of room at the kitchen table for everyone! I would definitely recommend this home!

Beautiful home tucked in the woods. It had everything we needed and then some. Tammy was very responsive to our questions…making the entire process and vacation enjoyable!

We have stayed in many homes on Bald Head Island but only this home have we returned to multiple years. Great set up for a family. Well appointed and a great location.

We had the best experience staying at “Island Happy.” But let me first talk about the property owner, Tammy. Amazing. She was so helpful about every detail and went above and beyond to address any issues and make sure we had a great stay. She let us know the grill wasn’t working properly and had a repairman coming out during the course of our stay. We were fine with it (we could wait to grill) but she went ahead and emailed us a bit later to say they had just decided to replace the grill. She was the best. As for the house, we had a multi-generational group with 6 kids (two under two), parents, and grandparents. The house was perfect. Beautiful with all of the amenities. A bunk room my older kids loved, 3 king beds for all of the adults, and then a 4th bedroom with double beds. Plenty of kids toys for indoor as well as the beach. Kitchen was fully stocked with all we needed, and the golf carts were big and speedy. Plenty of beach chairs and gear, even a shibumi. We loved the location of the property, which was quite central for all of the beaches and close to the market and marina. Highly recommend the property and highly recommend Tammy.
