Great house for family vacation

Great location close to lighthouse and marina area, enjoyed the marsh view and community dock. The large round dining table and living room sitting area was comfortable for everyone to hang out. Thankfully, everything was in great shape after Hurricane Ian just passing through.

First time in Lighthouse Landing

We've stayed in a lot of places on BHI but this may be our new go to home. This is a strange thing to praise but it's the first time we've never had an issue with a golf cart...or both carts on a trip. That said, we had no issues at all and everyone had a fabulous time.

Family staycation

Enjoyed once again another fun trip to Bald Head Island. The place was great. My only complaint would be the cleanliness. I noticed some cobwebs in the main living areas and there were gnats flying around along with two roaches we killed and one already dead (so 3 total). It didn’t stop us from enjoying our little vacation though and we would come back. (This is our second time Staying at this location. )

Fantastic first trip to Bald Head

Nice house and great location for access to the marsh. BHI Services was great in attending to the issues. The four seat golf cart definitely needs replacing, but we were accommodated with a rental. The kayaks could stand replacing too since they are advertised as a feature. Cleanliness was not up to standard, but we realize that service industries are are critically short staffed right now. We were able to deal with necessary issues and didn't let them hinder our great time at a great location. We really did enjoy the house and it's view of the marsh. The deck is a perfect place to start and end lovely days!

It's OK, but...

The unknown stuff on the pillowcases or bed sheet that caused skin irritation and red spots. Too much detergent residue? Needs maintenance, like window shade cord that won't adjust, shampoo not provided, small things, but for vocational rentals they should be there.

Loved it!

We have been coming to Bald Head for 30 years and have rented many houses, all with ocean views. We decided to rent 11 Lighthouse Landing because of the configuration and because we could bring our dog, but we anticipated " settling" as far as view. We were very wrong. The view is spectacular over the marsh and looking toward the harbor. We all agreed we preferred it to the ocean view. The house itself is lovely, well equipped, and well maintained. Beds are very comfortable. Location is great- close to harbor, club, lighthouse and within easy drive to ocean. We were a multigenerational group- grandparents, young parents and a toddler. The configuration of the house was perfect. The toddler could nap on the third floor while we hung out on the main floor with no worry of waking him. We will certainly rent this house again!

minor problems

There were a few minor difficulties nothing major. First the thermostat was locked, and the house was on the cool side. BHI had to contact the owner to unlock the thermostat. that only took a couple of hours. Then we took a golf cart to the beach which died on the way. It did manage to get a couple of miles from the house. Just a short walk back to retrieve the other one. Sorry to say was not any better. We were given a loaner which also died a couple of miles from the house and had to be left by the side of the rode also. Once we worked thru that everything else was very enjoyable.

11 Lighthouse Landing unsatisfactory

Have stayed in this property previously with no issues Nov. 2019. This visit however noted upstairs bedroom with shower curtain mold and Master shower were moldy on arrival, stale mold smell upstairs, coffee pot filthy with residue, floor dirty with dust/hair, refrigerator dirty on check in, light bulbs out kitchen and bedroom, one golf cart with no functioning headlights, bed linens disheveled in twin bedroom underneath dirty white bedspreads at check in, pillow yellow when pillow case removed, glass pitcher with broken sharp edges in kitchen pantry, totally dissatisfied for this second visit to this property. It does have a great location and view which is why our family rented to be close to wedding chapel. We will NOT rent this property again NOR use this same management team. Mangement was notified of several issues at checkin. Pictures taken of the issues identified. I request our rental fee be refunded.

Family fun

Had a great time and lots of stuff for the kids. Fish, kayaked, crabbed and explored the marsh daily. Three beaches to choose from and always could find ideal conditions. BHI conservancy had lots of excursions but they book up quickly and wish we would have reserved some earlier! I would visit and stay there again!

Frustrating

Arrived at 4:30(check in is anytime after 4)… Housekeeing still there… towels still being washed. Dirty dishes in dishwasher… stated owners didn’t leave on time…so yeah, I got to do the cleaning. Golf cart plug frayed—no lights on the golf cart. Very very dangerous. Check out is supposed to be 10am.. Housekeeping showed up at 9:30 and asked us to Leave so they could start early…. What the heck?? Island is no longer quiet…. There are literal trucks and construction all over. Bald heaD club… impossible to get to pool. Sadly what has been Relax and safe place for many years has become completely overrun, oversold the grocery store is literally picked over and a quagmire .

Great view

Loved this place. Housekeeping was very slow but after the initial slow start, everything was perfect. Best place for our family is this house and location. Right on the marsh, we love to kayak had gorgeous views of the sunset from the deck, used the paddleboard and two golf carts. We rented bikes for the week and it could not been better!! I would highly recommend eating in, the restaurants did not have enough waiters and we’re very slow. Buy the local seafood, so good and the kitchen was plenty stocked with pots and pans, though bring your own wine opener. Beds were also very comfortable!
