About this property

Park Place: On The Commons Park in Cape Fear Station, Walk to East Beach

Uniquely situated for an active vacation on this exclusive North Carolina barrier island, “Park Place” lies steps from The Commons Park, a 3-minute walk from fabulous East Beach, and a 5-minute walk from a swim, or dinner, at the elegant Shoals Club.


The house, ideal for a two-family vacation, is decorated in a timeless coastal style with comfortable bedding and furniture. The reverse floor plan features a 2nd floor screened-in porch to take advantage of the sights of the adjacent park, and the sounds of the nearby ocean.


The open 2nd floor also includes a great room, dining room, fully-equipped kitchen, ½ bath and a bunk room (two twin-over-full bunk beds). Downstairs, there is a master bedroom (king) and two additional bedrooms (queen), all with en suite bathrooms and Smart TVs.


A separate crofter features a bedroom (queen), mini-kitchen, pull-out sofa, Smart TV, and full bath, all situated above a cart garage, which houses (2) 6-seat golf carts (both on maintenance contracts, to ensure reliable and care-free transportation around the island), as well as bicycles, beach chairs and beach toys. Between the house and crofter is a patio with a table as well as charcoal and gas grills.


Additional amenities include membership (available for separate purchase) at the Bald Head Island Club (including golf) and Shoals Club, outdoor shower, hammock, high chair, porta crib, front porch rocking chairs, linens, and a local property manager who can take of any concerns or issues promptly.


This property rents Saturday-Saturday during June, July and August.


If the island is closed to short-term rentals due to a hurricane we will refund in full.

Thanksgiving at Bald Head Island

The house was beautiful. It was well stocked and organized. Plenty of room for our family. The porches and outdoor living spaces were very nice. It was one of the best locations we have stayed at. So convenient to everything we needed. The host was excellent to communicate with. Great experience!!!

Classic Bald Head House

Just as the title states. Very nice place with the classic bald head feel, nestled in a bunch of palms and natural brush. Front porch is perfect for watching kids play in the green space across the street. Plenty of room and comfortable. 2 6-seat golf carts that are in good condition. Lots of chairs and beach toys for kids and the beach is a 1 minute ride away.

Perfect place to stay

We were very happy with this house. The location is great and the house was very clean and comfortable. The photos don’t do it justice. We were really happy with how well equipped the house and kitchen were and the two six seater golf carts worked great. I would definitely stay here again.

Perfect Location and home

Another great trip to BHI! Park Place sits right in front of a quaint park that our boys played frisbee at everyday. The format of the house was perfect. Kitchen and living room up and the bedrooms down. The Crofter was a bonus. The owners obviously worked hard to provide all the necessities. Waffle iron, Tupperware, pans, cookware etc. Thanks for allowing us to stay at your place, we will certainly be back.

Great Thanksgiving Family Time

Park Place on Bald Head Island was a wonderful property for getting our children and grandchildren together. The grandchildren loved playing in the park across the street and the location was excellent to enjoy all the sights of the island by golf cart. We had a delicious Thanksgiving lunch at the Shoals Club and participated in the island Christmas parade on Friday evening. We would highly recommend Park Place

Great house and location

House is very clean and roomy. We had eight people and a baby. Plenty of space for everyone. The outside of the house and the porch furniture needs cleaning. Golf carts could be updated. We had great communication with the property manager. (there was a hurricane during our stay). Overall a great place to stay

Perfect location for a group of families

Location is great - very walkable to the beach and club. Only issue was some dirty shelves, missing towels and a stuck lock and subsequent suggestion from the property manager that our kids had created the issue. (why would I want to mess with their locks or steal towels from a rental????). Once we got past that, we had an amazing stay.

Another wonderful week on BHI

We have rented houses on BHI years, our needs changing as our family grows. Park Place was perfect for this year’s vacation with our kids and grandkids. We love to cook as a family and the kitchen was the best stocked kitchen of any rental we have had on the island. The high chair, booster seat, kids plates and utensils were unusual , appreciated additions . The mattresses and linens were also the highest quality we have come across in a rental. The park across the street was perfect for our grandsons , especially since it was cool and windy during our stay. Sharon was very easy to work with and quickly answered my many, many questions. We hope to return!

Fantastic Property! Would Rent Here Again!

We rented this property for my family to get together for Thanksgiving. There were 8 total people and the house was perfect. The kitchen was very well stocked and the owner was nice enough to talk with me beforehand so I knew exactly what was going to be available to me before packing for the trip, allowing me to bring a lot less than I thought I would have in order for me to cook Thanksgiving dinner. The owner was extremely responsive and was a dream to work with before and throughout the stay. The house was extremely clean, well stocked, in a great location...all in all we had a wonderful visit and would recommend this property to anyone in the future. Thank you for a wonderful family holiday weekend!!

About the host

Why they chose this property

For years we've been coming to Bald Head with our extended family. We had trouble finding a house that was close to the beach and could comfortably accommodate 2-3 families. After renting on the island for many years we purchased this home and had it furnished and decorated to be exactly what we were looking for.

What makes this property unique

Easy walk to East Beach (best on the island), The Shoals Club and Turtle Conservancy while facing The Commons Park. Screened in porch overlooks the park and is great for morning coffee, cocktails and even watching TV. The 5th bedroom in the crofter over the garage is perfect for grandparents, nanny or those looking for more privacy. Our kitchen is well stocked and the property is meticulously maintained.
