Property Description
This beautiful renovated Nantucket inspired cottage in Surfmans Walk is nestled in the maritime forest, just a short East Beach, the most popular beach on BHI. It is also a short walk (and even shorter golf cart ride) to Shoals Club, The Commons Park, Bald Head Island Conservancy and miles of biking, hiking and walking trails. Your hosts, Catherine and Brian, make sure you have everything you need to have a beautiful beach vacation.
The two screened porches and tree-canopied patio with fresh salt air and the sounds of soothing surf in the distance offer a perfect backdrop to read, drink a glass of wine, cook out, have your morning coffee and relax with family. The back screened porch has a beautiful swinging bed and directly accesses a boardwalk complete with ancient oaks, Spanish moss and a community gazebo. Outdoor deck is outfitted with gas grill and comfortable seating. Al fresco dining is available in the screened-in porch and the deck.
This house provides extra privacy as each bedroom has it’s own bathroom and smart TV. There are two bedrooms in the main house. The master bedroom has a king bed. The other bedroom in the main house has 3 twin beds (2 twins and a trundle). There is also a detached tree-house style guest cottage over the garage, which provides extra privacy with a queen-sized bed, smart TV and ensuite full bathroom. The crofter being detached from the house gives the guests added privacy and quiet.
Cottage is well stocked with all the comforts of a relaxing beach vacation—WiFi, 2 golf carts (6-person and 4-person), heated outdoor shower, 6 beach chairs, 4 cruiser bikes, cooler, bed linens, bath towels, beach towels, beach umbrellas, sand toys, boogie boards, surf board, board games, books, puzzles, portable high chair, pack n’ play crib, Keurig and regular coffee makers, blender, crock pot and fully stocked kitchen. Bike helmets are not provided. Bike pump is in the garage.
Weekly rentals are Saturday-Saturday in summer. We will entertain shorter stays outside of the high season. Message me to discuss.
Our house has the option to purchase temporary memberships at Shoals Club (pool/restaurant/beach access/fitness center) AND Bald Head Island Club (golf/tennis/pool/restaurant/croquet/fitness center). Not all homes have access to both clubs. Shoals Club is closest to the house (5 minute walk), oceanfront and offers pools, dining, bars, fitness center and beach access. Bald Head Island club offers golf, tennis, croquet, dining, pools, park and water slide. Both clubs offer beautiful views and excellent food. Photos of the clubs are included in the pictures for our house.
If playing golf on vacation is important to you, then you need to rent a house that provides the option for a golf membership to BHI Club. This house provides this option.
Another benefit of our house is having 2 golf carts—4-person and 6-person. 2 carts enable groups to separate for the many different activities the island has to offer.
Amazing restaurants, a spa, and a fully stocked market are minutes away from this quintessential Bald Head beach cottage.
In short, our goal is for you to have everything you need to enjoy the perfect vacation. We will take good care of you on your stay.

The cottage was cute and cozy and clean! The setting in the woods was very charming. We had our coffee each morning on the screen porch and were entertained by the squirrels chasing each other around. Location was excellent. Added bonus, the king bed was so comfortable! Host was awesome and very helpful. 100% recommend.

My husband and I stayed at Gaga’s Gift to unwind after beach week with ALL of the family in another spot the week before. The house, and the Surfman’s Walk community were quiet and peaceful. House was well-stocked and the bed was comfortable. The pictures are accurate. Catherine was great to work with—she got back with me quickly whenever I had any questions. We love the East Beach location and recommend the Shoals Club membership for easy access to the beach and its others amenities.

Excellent stay, very comfortable place (beds, couches, hanging couch on the back porch, etc.) with decorations that are on point. Very clean and having a washer/dryer proved very convenient along with a well equipped kitchen. Catherine & Brian were excellent hosts and made everything seamless. We enjoyed the provided bikes and having 2 golf carts was perfect for our family. We have stayed at many different places on BHI and will certainly come back to this place.

Our family of 4 loved the week at this Bald Head Island property. Friendly host and easy check-in made us feel welcome. Perfect location in our favorite neighborhood of Surfman’s Walk, as well as functional kitchen, comfortable living room, clean bedrooms/bathrooms, and two golf carts. Hope to stay here again next year!

Wonderfully cozy house in a perfect location! It had everything we needed and then some, and the host was so helpful and lovely. Definitely the best rental experience we’ve had on the island.

Our family had a wonderful stay at Gaga’s Gift. The home was clean and very well appointed. We had all the amenities needed. The screened porches were perfect for our morning coffee. We loved the proximity to the beach and Shoals Club. Our host was very responsive and friendly. We are looking forward to our next visit!
