Quaint Bald Head Island Cottage close to East Beach with access to BHI Club

Welcome to "Not On Call", a charming 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom cottage in Cape Fear Station, near East Beach. Sleeps 4-5. Located just 2 minutes by golf cart to the favored East Beach, and walking distance to the Turtle Conservancy, Mike's Bites, and the Commons Park.

Our cottage was updated in 2020. Remodeled kitchen with quartz countertops, marble backsplash, new stove, and dishware. Bath and beach towels are provided. New interior paint and decor, new rugs and leather chaise. Dining table and master vanity with quartz countertops. We pride ourselves on keeping our home fresh, tidy, and clean. We do have a no pets and no smoking policy.

The first floor has a bright entryway, a garage for the 4-seater golf cart, a bedroom with queen-sized bed, wall mounted television, and full bathroom with walk-in shower.

The second floor contains the living room with a comfortable sofa, arm chair, and leather chaise, updated kitchen with new appliances, dining nook, and closet with full-sized washer/dryer.

The third floor is a family suite with a teak queen bed and side tables, a twin over full bunk bed, large vanity, and a full bathroom with walk-in shower.

Wall mounted television in first floor bedroom, as well as a large flat screen and Blu-Ray DVD player in the living room. Both televisions are smart TVs. There is a large movie library, as well as board games and puzzles.

Beach chairs, and beach towels are provided. We have a few adult-sized bicycles that are kept outside and are available for your use. Please note the bicycles are in "as is" condition - guests are welcome to use them or, if they prefer, they can rent bicycles from one of the on-island shops.

Guests have the option of purchasing a temporary guest membership to Bald Head Island Club, allowing guests to access pools, waterslides, golf, tennis, pickleball, croquet, and multiple restaurants and coffee bar. The pools are heated through the end of October and re-open in April. The Sumners Crescent community has a shared deck with benches for relaxing. There is also a charcoal grill at the cottage.

BHI also offers historical tours, kayak rentals, bicycle rentals, guided fishing trips, turtle conservancy, nature trails, shopping, crabbing, etc. So much to enjoy, whether visiting in the midst of summer or in the off-season.

We are also the owners of “Fish N’ Chips”, a larger 4 BR home just a few doors down - perfect if you are looking for a second home for friends or family.

PLEASE NOTE-
Hurricane Policy: If the local Government orders a mandatory evacuation for Bald Head Island AND you don’t stay at our home, you will receive a full refund for the nights the evacuation order is in place. This does not pertain to voluntary evacuations, a situation where travel insurance is certainly beneficial.

If our home becomes uninhabitable for any reason (fire, wind, flood), and we need to cancel, you will receive a full refund for unused days of your stay.

Because of the current pandemic, and because unexpected situations can arise (health, work, date conflicts, etc), we recommend protecting your investment and vacation by purchasing travel insurance.

Amazing beach trip
The house was lovely. The living space on the second floor was so cozy and inviting. The kitchen had all the utensils we needed. We loved having enough beds for everyone to sleep in the same room on the third floor as we have young kids. We rode bikes to the beach, which was an incredibly short ride, and saw a group of 5 deer grazing in the dunes. Watching the sun dip below the ocean during sunset was an unexpected treat, seeing as we have only ever seen this in Key West. Chrissie was very attentive and responsive. I would highly recommend this home to others.

Beautiful BHI House
We so enjoyed our stay with our family of five and found everything as described and pictured. It is a beautiful house and just the perfect size for our family. The kitchen and bathrooms are all updated and decor bright and well done. Beds were so comfortable too! We loved the location so close to East Beach and our favorite, Mike’s Bites too:) Thank you for a wonderful stay. This house is a great find!!

Most relaxing stay
This property was beautiful, exceptionally clean, and the host left no detail overlooked. It is not large but there is more than enough space for a family or maybe two small families. The golf cart was one of our favorite parts! The neighborhood was quiet and the island felt like a tropical paradise. We wouldn’t have changed a thing!

Perfect Stay
Not On Call is such a perfect place for a family of 4-6 or even an extended family. House is in immaculate shape with everything you could need. We loved staying near South Beach and we could go everywhere we wanted to go on the golf cart or bikes. Our boys (8 and 10) felt very much at home in the house and we did too!

Absolutely loved my visit to Bald Head Island. The home is just as warm and inviting as it looks online. The section is close to the beach less than 5 minutes in the golf cart and close to the shoals club house. Chrissie was fantastic through the whole process, prompt to answer any questions and truly deserves all these 5 star reviews! 10/10 will be back.

Clean and well organized
Clean and well organized home. We were pleased to find a stand alone home and not a duplex (can't tell from photo). Bikes in good working order. Beach chairs and towels provided. Beach access #39 was close by and had a wonderful beach. We went to another house for a party that was on the other side of the island and the bugs were awful there but no issues at this location. Be aware that the Island police were stopping golf carts that were leaving the wedding we attended at the Marina. We didn't get stopped but we saw when we left and heard the same from other wedding goers.

Lovely house
Lovely house. Very clean. Quite comfortable sitting areas. The third floor family suite has comfortable beds and is spacious. The kitchen is functional and well-equipped though small. Would not be great for a family in which multiple people wanted to cook. The first floor bedroom is a little less comfortable as it's a tight space. Just worth being aware that the family suite upstairs has all beds in one room, so if you don't want to sleep in the same room as your kids, they get the nicer space.
