IF YOU WANT TO SPEND YOUR VACATION AT THE BEACH, SHOULDN’T YOU SPEND IT AT THE BEACH?


Blue Moon on Bald Head Island is the ideal beach home to feel at one with nature


The expansive vistas are nearly impossible to beat:
Look to the left and see the legendary Frying Pan Shoals of Cape Fear.

Look to the right and witness striking sunsets and humongous ships sailing in and out of port.

Look straight ahead and watch dolphins frolicking and pelicans diving for dinner.

Look up and be captivated by an unbelievable nighttime sky, frequented by shooting stars and sightings of the Milky Way.
Feel the cool ocean breeze. Smell the salt air. Let the sound of the waves lull you to a calming nighttime's sleep.


The beach access is directly in front of the home, not down a winding boardwalk or road as is often found with other oceanfront homes. This charming stretch of beach is usually only spotted with a few other people and it is common to have it all to yourself.


If you forgot your sunscreen or need a cold drink, it just takes a min. to run back to the home and get whatever you need. There are also plenty of beach chairs, sand toys and body boards stored on the porch for your painless access and enjoyment

Why load up a cart to haul everything to the beach? If you are thirsty, it is just a few steps back to the home. If one member of your group needs a break from the sun, he can relax in the swing on the lower porch. Infant needs a nap, but you don’t want to leave the beach, hang out on the upper deck and see the ocean while still in earshot. Rather than having to work your way around others at the fashionable public accesses, you will often find the impressive stretch of beach in front of the home all but empty.


From the balcony, you can watch the sun rise with your first cup of coffee and watch it set with a cool evening drink. As one guest wrote, 'Your home is handsome... you have to be here to believe the memorable view!'


With vaulted ceilings and a bright cheery interior, the living and dining area is a great place to hang out with the family at the end of the day. The cabinets are supplied with books for both adults and kids, games and plenty of movies. The kitchen has all the equipment to prepare your meals, right down to cookbooks and a spice rack. You can even watch the waves crash on the beach as you make dinner. Prepare breakfast and walk right out to the upper deck to appreciate it along with the striking ocean view.


Downstairs, both the Master bedroom and Queen guest room lead out to a screened-in porch with a swing, rockers, and a picnic table and they offer beautiful vistas of the dunes and beach. The Master bedroom has a King bed, huge closet, sitting area, T.V. and private bathroom. The 3rd bedroom with twin beds is a favorite with the kids and also comes with a closet filled with toys. A 2nd full bathroom is on this floor.


The home is ideally designed for a family, couples or a group of adults just looking to get away from it all. We have great pride of ownership and follow a rigorous maintenance routine to keep Blue Moon in a condition that consistently exceeds our guests' expectations. It is our goal to offer an extraordinary vacation experience. We provide a thorough information packet to help you prepare for and savor your trip and welcome any and all questions about Blue Moon and Bald Head Island.

Tips to get the best rental home experience:

When to visit & When to reserve a rental home:

• Summer is high season in the Southport area. Reserving a rental home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is a good way to save on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable properties. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property management companies offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Often, property management companies supply Southport area travel guides which include special offers, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.
