This house and property were amazing. There was no need to ask for anything. This was the most well equipped rental home I’ve ever stayed in! Communication with the owners was excellent. We enjoyed our stay so much!! We also liked the resort restaurants and large pool and slides. The golf carts were a nice addition to the property and made it easy to check out the island. We want to return next year!!! Perfect spot!!!

This home was probably my family’s favorite rental thus far since we’ve been visiting BHI the past 3 decades. The one level layout was perfect for my elderly parents and the young adult family members really enjoyed the provided outdoor activities below the house with basketball,corn hole, and ping pong. Outdoor decking area was perfect for relaxing and enjoying the sunsets. Plenty of room inside with lots of privacy. We will definitely come back to this wonderful home again.

The house was excellent with awesome views, and is about 100 feet to the easy beach access. Our stay was beyond remarkable!! We enjoyed everything about the house. It's obvious the owners have put major efforts into their home to make our stay comfortable. Did I mention a fully stocked bar, a screened in porch, a nice dinning table and a great sunset view? We'll be back!

Spacious shared spaces and decks allaround the house. We appreciated the dishes and cookware, linens, toys, games, and beach paraphernalia . The house is comfortable, laid back, sunny. Three golf carts very handy. Responsive host. Beach access exceptionally good, though the dune blocks views of the water.

This was a perfect beach getaway for our family vacation We had a wonderful stay at this recently renovated home right across from the beach. The house was clean, well-maintained, and had everything we needed for a relaxing vacation. The outdoor space and decks were a huge bonus—plenty of seating, a hammock, and fun activities that kept everyone entertained. It was the perfect spot for our family trip before our son heads off to college. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a comfortable and convenient beach getaway!

About the host

Hosted by Kathy Myers

Host profile image

We are from the DC area and discovered BHI several years ago. We love to come here for vacation and are fortunate to have found a home to call our own. BHI is the perfect place to relax and really unplug.

Why they chose this property

We love the location right across from the beach and the view of the sunsets and shipping channel. We love riding our bike to the BHI club and the fact that we are just a 10 - 15 minute cart ride to almost anything on the island.

Premier Host

They consistently provide great experiences for their guests
