Perfect location! The pictures are beautiful but can’t capture the breathtaking view, truly amazing. The host Mary was awesome with communication and had so many great recommendations for our family, clear island expert! The house was perfect and very well taken care of with a well stocked kitchen and everything we needed while we were there. We will be back to create more memories!

This place is an absolute GEM! The marsh view is breathtaking and the host makes you feel right at home. One of the best houses on Bald Head. Great location, as well. The house was spotless and nicely decorated. Comfy beds and cozy furniture. Everything seems brand new. I can see myself coming back to this exact same house quite regularly. Having a host that is not only quick to respond, but also knowledgeable of the island was a huge plus. I just can’t say enough good things about this place. Thanks, Mary!!!

About the host

Hosted by Mary Dillhoff

Host profile image
We are from Ohio and have been visiting Bald Head Island for nearly 20 years and finally able to get our dream home that we can share with you. We love to spend time on Bald Head with our family, going, to the beach, swimming at the Shoals, cooking good meals, spending time on the marsh, hiking and crabbing.

Why they chose this property

Lighthouse Landing has the best marsh views while be close to everything. Throw the kayak in right out the back door. Even walk to the ferry if you haven't booked a tram. Even a view of Old Baldy out the twin bedroom!

What makes this property unique

The best marsh views!
