    The house was very well equipped and spacious for my group of 8. The additional fridge in the garage was a nice bonus when bringing food and drinks for the entire week. We had some issues with the golf carts as one of them quit on us completely. Our host was responsive when notified of the problem although it ultimately was never properly repaired. I have taken my family to the island for many years and stayed in many different properties. I would certainly consider staying at Bait's Motel again.

    We have been coming to BHI for 6 years and this house by far as been our favorite! We loved the location, privacy, beautiful furnishings, space and I could go on and on! We had an issue with the washer and they went above and beyond to take care of that promptly. Thank you for the best week ever in your beautiful home!

    The property is just about perfect. Center of the island close to all the amenities. The property has all of the items included that you would expect to have in your own home. 3 golf carts come in hand when friends come to visit. The property appeals to all ages. I would highly recommend this property to anyone

    Book your next stay at Bald Head here! Absolutely love it! Nestled in the woods. Easy walk or ride over to the local grocery store/restaurants/shopping. Easy walk or ride to the beach. Quiet neighbors - except for cicadas! :) The house itself is beautifully kept! Enjoy the morning cup of coffee out on the screened in porch or the breakfast nook. Plenty of room for a family to spread out and also come together for a family meal. Golf carts and bikes for every group of the family to go adventure on their own. Cozy yet spacious. Even an inviting office which makes remote work not feel like a break from vacation vibes. Bonus points for the shuffle board table, porch swing and lego artwork.

    We had the best week at Bait's Motel! This house is tremendous. Absolutely beautiful and so much space. Our kids (teens) loved the air hockey table and all of the board games and puzzles that were in the office. We all had plenty of room to spread out and find our own favorite places to hang but loved being able to come together to eat at the big dining room table and also watch movies in the living room. The house were extremely well appointed and we had everything we needed inside as well as outside for adventures to the beach. My husband especially loved the topless golf cart. The location was perfect and communication with the property management was seamless. We'd rent here over and over!

    House was very clean and much nicer and larger than the pictures online. We enjoyed having the 3 golf carts to use. Grill was clean, well stocked kitchen, huge laundry room/mud room, lots of space to spread out! This is a great home for a family of 5 with teens (or older kids/adults).

    Loved the property except for the showers. It was difficult to get warm water in master shower.
