Dreamaway Stay
When we arrived the cleaning staff was still finishing their work. The place was cheerful and nice. The few things we had problems with were, the dryer didn’t work. A repair person came out but he said the control panel was shot. He told me I could have the staff at the island was and fry clothes for me. It was helpful but I waited for clothes and especially towels to get cleaned. The dishwasher broke while we were there and that was repaired, the shower in the crofter wasn’t working when we arrived. A plumber fixed it 2 days late, and not this was a huge deal but there was no ironing board. We did enjoy the place once some of the problems were fixed. The workers on the island were kind and did the best they could to make our stay as good as it could be.

Back Again
We like this property and location enough to have come back for the second year in a row. One of the batteries is not charging the golf carts well so we informed the property manager. They have stated they will look into it tomorrow. When we had an issue last visit, they were out to resolve it within the hour.

LOVE! Never wanted to leave!
We have stayed in perhaps half a dozen homes here & this is still my fave. It’s got some kind of feeling in it that says “home.” We felt very comfortable even from the first 5 minutes in the house. Very clean, comfortable beds, big kitchen/dining, kin a cute subivision. Highly recommend!!

Wonderful House
We (family of 5 with teens) really enjoyed the house and the extra room over the garage. It was perfectly located with golf cart access to all places. We also enjoyed using the provided bikes to spin around the roads throughout our area. BHI is a wonderful island and we will definitely return soon!!

We have rented many properties at BHI and this property was one of our favorites. We loved the location to the Shoals Club and the beach. It was very suited for our family of four and the kitchen was stocked nicely. It was well furnished and finished well with decor. We enjoyed our stay!

Cozy cottage, great location!
This our second time staying at Dream Away Cottage. We appreciate the short distance to the beach and to the Shoals Club. We like the decor and we had everything we needed for cooking in a lot. The cottage was very clean except the second bathroom shower is showing some age ( mildew in several areas).

Great stay in the forest
We absolutely loved staying here. The house was gorgeous and clean. We had no issues. I'd never stayed in the forest area before and always stayed closer to beach - but I LOVED staying here. The front porch on the house is awesome. Enjoyed coffee there every morning. We traveled as a family of 5 and my husband and I stayed in the master and my 3 boys stayed in the room with 2 double beds and it was perfect. We didn't use the crofter but we walked into just to check it out and there is a musty odor to it. I didn't bother us because no one slept there during our trip. I would definitely stay at this house again!!!! We had a great time.

The Perfect Long Weekend Getaway!
I have been going to Bald Head my whole life and stayed in many different homes on the Island with my Family. This home was the perfect space for our group! It had nice open living spaces and two screened-in porches. We loved the kitchen and the big dinning table for sharing meals together. It also provided all of the amenities we needed and the property manager was great to work with! We could not have asked for a better spot!
