About this house rental
WELCOME TO CATCH 22
This beautiful beach cottage is located in Cape Fear Station, just minutes from East Beach, Shoals Club, The Commons Park and the Bald Head Island Conservancy. The home is nestled among ancient live oak trees, the salt marsh and the ocean environment in the quiet and secluded area of Keepers Landing. The smell of the fresh salt air and the sound of the surf in the distance are a constant reminder of the beauty of your surroundings. Out the front door and across the street our guests can enjoy use of the private marsh walk where you can fish, crab, SUP or launch a canoe or kayak. The beach and the Shoals Club are a short bike ride away or less than 2 minutes away by golf cart.
The home is a reverse floor plan with the living area upstairs and the bedrooms on the first floor. The home provides privacy and comfort as each bedroom has thick plush pillow top mattresses, its own full bathroom and TV. There are 2 bedrooms in the main house each with access to the screened porch. The master has a king bed and the guest room has a queen bed and a set of twin bunks. The crofter, located over the garage, provides extra privacy with a queen bed, TV, full bathroom, sitting area and private deck. The screened porch, the upper deck off the main living area and a large open deck in the privacy of the back of the home are all perfect for total relaxation, grilling, dining al fresco, cocktails and company.
Our cottage is well stocked for you to enjoy a comfortable beach vacation. There is a fully stocked kitchen including dinner plates/etc. service for 12, varying sizes of pots, pans and cookware, serving bowls and platters, glassware (including wine and cocktail) and a starter supply of cleaning essentials. The house is equipped with WiFi, a 55" Samsung SmartTV with streaming devices (Netflix, Hulu, Pandora, etc.), plus TV's in each bedroom all with streaming devices, (we do not have cable TV), a brand new Bintelli 6 person golf cart, outdoor shower, new Weber grill, beach chairs, cooler, boogie boards, corn hole, crab trap/nets and accessories, 2 adult bicycles with baskets, bed linens, bath towels, beach towels, board games, puzzle, books, Pack-n-Play crib, regular coffee maker, blender, crockpot, toaster and ice cream/sorbet maker.
The island has many activities to keep the adventure going. Aside from the beautiful beaches, there are lighthouse tours at "Old Baldy", kids camp opportunities through the BHI Conservancy, the Shoals Club (only available if temporary membership is purchased), Riverside Adventure Company (www.riversideadventure.com) where you can rent bikes and beach equipment. There are also many ongoing family fun activities. Coastal Urge (www.coastalurge.com) provides rentals of surfboards, skim boards, body boards and paddle boards. The Spa located next to the Maritime Market is just another outlet to help calm, soothe, and heal for extra relaxation. Should you need some extra transportation, Cary Cart Company can have another golf cart delivered to the home prior to your arrival.

We would 100% rent this property again in the future. The host was very responsive when we had questions and made sure to follow up throughout the process leading up to our stay. The house is clean and spacious. It is also situated directly across from the community dock that goes out into the marsh. The cart is very nice and even allows you to hook up your phone to the speaker system. The bikes are in great shape also. The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen is well appointed. Bonus points for having a BHI Monopoly game set, even though we didn’t use it as the weather was perfect and we spent all of our time on the beach, at the Shoals Club, or fishing. Also, the ice maker produces tons of ice for use in your coolers going to the beach. This house does all of the little things right and they add up to make the overall experience wonderful.

We loved staying at Catch 22. This is our second time on the island. This location was ideal. It is nestled in the woods to cool off the house and allow you to spend more time outside while still being close to some of our favorite beaches. The size of the house was also great. We had 3 kids (12, 14 and 16) in the bunk room. My husband and I were in the primary suite. My father and his wife were in the crofter. All had plenty of space to relax and separate for quiet. My brother and his family stayed down the road. They would join us for dinner...plenty of room for all 13 of us for meals. Bob and Annette were very responsive. They also gave us a heads up that the island was very short-staffed. So, we were prepared with extra groceries, etc. Highly recommend. Hoping we make it back to Catch 22.
