Doc House is a one-of-a-kind waterfront retreat, custom built to capture some of the most breathtaking views on Bald Head Island—while offering one of the island’s most convenient locations. From here, you can easily walk to the harbor, marina, Old Baldy Lighthouse, cafés, shops, and more.
Surrounded by protected maritime forest, this home offers both privacy and natural beauty, with towering trees, local wildlife, and peaceful surroundings. Inside, more than 60 windows—many floor-to-ceiling—fill the space with natural light and showcase stunning views of the ocean, marsh, and forest.

Fresh linens and towels are included in the cleaning fee, and the home is dog-friendly for your four-legged family members. Guests also have the option to purchase a temporary Bald Head Island Club social membership for access to the pool and dining (fees apply).

About the area
Bald Head Island, North Carolina, is a serene and exclusive retreat known for its pristine beaches, lush maritime forests, and leisurely pace of life. Accessible only by ferry from the nearby town of Southport, this car-free island offers a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, where golf carts and bicycles are the primary modes of transportation.
Upon arrival, visitors are greeted by the sight of the historic Bald Head Island Lighthouse, affectionately known as "Old Baldy." As the oldest standing lighthouse in North Carolina, it provides a glimpse into the island's past and offers panoramic views of the surrounding area for those willing to climb to the top.
The island's beaches are a major draw, with 14 miles of sandy shores that invite sunbathing, swimming, and beachcombing. The South Beach area is particularly popular for its gentle waves and wide expanse of sand, making it ideal for families. For a more secluded experience, East Beach offers a quieter setting where the Atlantic Ocean meets the Cape Fear River.
Nature enthusiasts will appreciate the Bald Head Island Conservancy, a key player in the preservation of the island's diverse ecosystems. The conservancy offers guided tours, educational programs, and the chance to see local wildlife, including sea turtles that nest on the beaches during the summer months.
The island's maritime forest is another natural treasure, with a network of trails that wind through a canopy of live oaks, sabal palms, and dogwoods. Hikers and bird watchers will find these paths a peaceful haven for observing the island's flora and fauna.
Golfers can enjoy the Bald Head Island Club's championship golf course, which is renowned for its beauty and challenging play. The course meanders through dunes, marshes, and woodlands, providing a memorable golfing experience.
For dining and shopping, visitors can explore the quaint Harbour Village, where a selection of restaurants offer fresh seafood and local cuisine. The village's shops provide a range of goods from artisan crafts to beach essentials.
Accommodations on Bald Head Island range from cozy cottages to luxurious vacation homes, many of which offer stunning views of the ocean or maritime forest.
