About this house rental

Doc House is a one-of-a-kind waterfront retreat, custom built to capture some of the most breathtaking views on Bald Head Island—while offering one of the island’s most convenient locations. From here, you can easily walk to the harbor, marina, Old Baldy Lighthouse, cafés, shops, and more.




Surrounded by protected maritime forest, this home offers both privacy and natural beauty, with towering trees, local wildlife, and peaceful surroundings. Inside, more than 60 windows—many floor-to-ceiling—fill the space with natural light and showcase stunning views of the ocean, marsh, and forest.




Step outside to expansive decks or take your private beach boardwalk to the shore, where you can enjoy incredible sunsets. An outdoor shower makes it easy to rinse off after a day at the beach.




Fresh linens and towels are included in the cleaning fee, and the home is dog-friendly for your four-legged family members. Guests also have the option to purchase a temporary Bald Head Island Club social membership for access to the pool and dining (fees apply).




With its unbeatable views, walkable location, and serene setting, Doc House offers a comfortable island escape.

The property location was absolutely perfect - sunsets, passing sail boats and cargo ships. The beach walks were terrific with very easy access. The kitchen is stocked with everything you might need for cooking or baking and serving. The golf cart seats 4 and was fully charged and ready to go. It was a joy to sit on the patio and watch sunsets.

Home was as described-simple, clean, well furnished and supplied. Plenty of beach towels and beach chairs. View from upper deck was perfect for sunsets and ship watching and the binoculars were a great addition. . We were blessed to see dolphins swim closely by the shoreline a few times. Be prepared to climb stairs to the kitchen with your supplies. Communication was great throughout our stay.

Old Baldy did not disappoint. The location was perfect. Shops, restaurants, historical attractions and other beach locations were only a short drive away via golf cart. The house was clean, inviting and very comfortable. We enjoyed the views from the balcony, especially the sunsets. My husband fished from the beach and my daughters and I collected sea shells and relaxed in the beach chairs provided. The check-in/out process was easy and communication with the property manager was excellent. My family and I will most definitely return to Old Baldy again soon!!

Property is much more run down than the pictures and needs a very deep cleaning. Golf cart ran down battery just going to market. Good location next to harbor.
