Washashore - South Beach Oceanfront Home w/Views, Wraparound Deck, Tons of Natural Light, BHI Club

Under new management, this 5 star 3 bedroom, 3 bath beachfront gem sits on Bald Head Island’s beautiful South Beach. Windows, Windows, Windows! You can enjoy panoramic ocean views from the kitchen, dining area and living room. Or sit on the spacious wrap-around deck to enjoy the ocean breezes or watch the sunset. The central location means your vacation home is just minutes by golf cart to the harbor, the Maritime Market, and the BHI Club.


Washashore is fully equipped for your vacation. A large cooler, beach toys and plenty of beach chairs are all available. There is also plenty of of covered/shaded area on the ground floor with a table for relaxing, storage and staging your day at the beach.


You’ll love the open floor plan in this one story home. Washashore has been completely renovated recently with new furniture, HD flat screen TVs, floors, carpeting and paint. The bedroom arrangement is perfect for one or two families. Each bedroom features it's own bathroom. The 3rd bedroom can easily be used for adults or kids with a king bed and a twin bed with a trundle!


If you've never been to Bald Head Island, you're in for a real treat. You'll love driving the well kept golf carts or bicycling along the beach road or through the lush Maritime Forest. Visit Old Baldy, the oldest lighthouse in North Carolina, and learn about the Island's pirate and Civil War history. Join the Conservancy and take a turtle walk where you might see a loggerhead turtle lay her eggs or watch a nest hatch.

Fall Break
We enjoyed our stay! We rent a home on bald head once or twice a year and just love the feeling of being a world away. The views were beautiful from this home and convenient to two beach access locations. The beds were comfortable and bathrooms clean. We did have an issue with the plumbing in one of the bathrooms and received prompt communication from itrip in efforts to find a resolution. The living room /dining room/ kitchen are open concept which was wonderful for dining and entertaining friends that were visiting BHI as well. We would recommend this home!

Beachfront getaway
Being a beachfront property some of the roads had flooded the week before during a storm that dumped 20 inches of rain on Southport . Greg, from iTripNC, made sure we got to the house since the trams were not working . It is a bright sunny house and the sunsets were lovely . Bedrooms are spacious . Kitchen well equipped. We wish there had been instructions for working the TV but a relaxing ,comfortable spot .

Amazing and exactly as described!
We love this house so much! The entire front and sides are covered with big windows, so it’s a view everywhere you look. Great accommodations, very clean, easy access to anything you need on the island. It’s only a 5 minute golf cart ride to shops. Perfect vacation!

Charming house, great location!
We come to Bald Head every summer, and this year we decided to extend our stay and got lucky finding this cottage at the last minute. The cottage is super sunny, and central to almost everything on the island including the Market, BHI Club, and close to East Beach! The spacious kitchen was well stocked with all of the essentials, and the house has amazing views of the ocean from most of the rooms. Also the property management company was super-responsive. We had an issue with one of the golf carts and they took care of it proactively and kept us in the loop while it was quickly repaired. We’d stay here again.

Best house!
The house was wonderful! Perfect! My husband and I were celebrating our anniversary so it was just the two of us - there was a lot of extra room so I hope to come back with my family! It was close to the beach access and a great spot to watch the sunset. The house had everything you could want and was clean and well kept. The iTrips folks were extremely responsive and accomodating! I would love to stay there again!

Wonderful views!
We loved the wall of windows to the south and east and the decks on those sides as well. Very comfortable lodgings with fully equipped kitchen and wonderful location right on the beach. We saw the full moon rise and the sun set at the same time. Golf carts worked fine. All in all a very comfortable stay.

Perfect single family beach getaway with grandparents
This property is well maintained with comfortable mattresses/furniture and the three bedrooms with full baths make it ideal for a family and a set of grandparents which is how we did it. Beautiful view of the sunset from the deck. We all enjoyed our stay and appreciated the hospitality.

Fantastic panoramic view of South Beach
Excellent location with a fantastic panoramic view of South Beach. The beach is massive and never crowded. Open floor plan all on one level is comfortable and outside shower was a hit. Central location makes for short golf cart trips to the marina, market or East Beach. Cycling on the island is a favorite. Support from iTrip staff was always prompt.

Great home on BHI
We had a great time at this house! The layout must have been changed since previous reviews as all bedrooms had their own entrance and bathroom. Additionally, the kitchen had all that we needed, and the house was very convenient to the beach access!
