WELCOME TO SECOND WIND
A breezy, authentic escape on Bald Head Island. Just 650 feet from South Beach, our home offers expansive ocean vistas, privacy, and the ideal layout for two families or a group of friends to relax and recharge.
THE LIVING SPACE & KITCHEN
Inside, you’ll find a bright and roomy reverse floor plan with the main living, upsized kitchen, and dining areas upstairs to maximize the ocean vistas. Grand windows on three sides flood the space with natural light, while a entirely equipped kitchen with granite countertops offers everything you need to prepare and gather. Whether you're appreciating beverages at the bar, reading in the great room, or playing board games at the dining table, there's plenty of room to connect with your people.
PORCHES & VIEWS
The screened porch, with comfortable, upholstered chairs, and adjoining sun deck offer the ideal places to sip morning coffee, listen to the surf, or watch ships glide by on the ocean and Cape Fear River. In the evening, the west-facing porch becomes your front-row seat to island sunsets—best adored from a rocking chair with a cold drink in hand.
BEDROOMS
-- TWO KING MASTER SUITES: Each with a pillow-top bed, private bath, intelligent TV, and access to a covered ocean-facing porch.
-- TWO TWIN BEDROOMS: Sharing a full bath, ideal for kids or teens.
PRIVACY & LOCATION
Our lot on a peaceful cul-de-sac provides lush greenery and wildlife sightings—from deer to ospreys. You are just a short block from the sand and a fast trip to the Bald Head Island Club.
PROVIDED FOR YOUR STAY
-- TRANSPORTATION: Two golf carts (one 6-seater and one 4-seater) plus a trailer for beach gear.
-- BEACH GEAR: 8 beach chairs, umbrellas, and a stash of sand toys.
-- BICYCLES: Access to at least two adult bicycles (subject to condition).
-- TECH: High-speed Mesh Wi-Fi, big screen TV, and a Bluetooth speaker system throughout the top floor and porches.
IMPORTANT CLUB & LOGISTICS INFO
Access to the BHI Club and Shoals Club is available for separate purchase directly through the clubs. Please confirm club availability BEFORE booking if access is essential to your stay. BHI Club: 910-457-7300 x. 6 | Shoals Club: 910-454-4888.
Check ferry/tram availability at baldheadislandferry.com before booking. Our address is 13 Water Thrush Ct. If it’s a late booking and space is tight, please contact me to discuss options!
NOTE: We provide all home linens, but please bring your own beach towels, as our cleaning service does not provide them.
We’d adore to host you for your next island tradition!
