Beautiful location, needs better upkeep
We had the pleasure of staying at this house while attending the wedding of a dear friend. As expected, it’s a wonderful location on a beautiful island and was perfect for our weekend stay. You can walk to the beach or country club! The house is lovely and was clean on the surface when we arrived. Everything was in order as expected. However, the longer we were there we couldn’t help but notice the lack of upkeep. The house had cobwebs and spider webs in nearly every corner (inside and outside) - along with many actual spiders. Overall it didn’t take away from the amazing memories we made, but it felt like the home really needed some TLC from its owners. Our best guess is that we were one of the first rental groups of the summer season. I would expect there to be time to do a deep clean before the high rental season begins for the price. Also, one of the golf carts was struggling to keep up with the newer one in the garage despite always being charged. Not a big problem, but it may be in need of maintenance or replacement. We did get to see the alligator behind the house, and it really made our trip!

Wedding weekend fun!
Perfect cottage for a small group. Location is beautiful & centrally located. The house was clean & well-appointed. Aimee was a great host…responsive & easy to work with. We had some scheduling logistics to deal with and Aimee was very accommodating. We highly recommend the property & hope to visit again.

Week at Bald Head
property is well maintained and well decorated. There was a really loud group next door that stayed the whole week with music, etc, but you can't control that. The BHIsland club was a pain to deal with. We thought the old pool was usable as a lap lane and they screamed at us for using it. Said we had to live there. My two daughters are competitive swimming so that was a bummer. Won't use that club will go to Shoals again.

Great Stay
We recently wrapped up our 7th Annual family vacation to BHI, and we really enjoyed staying at Howard's Haven. The location was possibly the best we have had so far. As a parents of (3) little ones, the walkability (or super quick golf cart ride) to multiple beach accesses and the BHI club can't be beat...and sunset view is much better in person than represented in some of the photos. Pleasantly surprised. Our kids loved seeing the gator swim by in the lagoon each afternoon - safely from the deck. The only downsides were the washer/dryer being located in the bottom floor garage, and the living space being open to the upstairs loft bedroom. Made for late nights with little kids/early nights for mom and dad. Perfect sized house for a family of 4-5. The Tews
