nice house for 6 adults
We loved the location and the house size. Kitchen was well equipped. I will say the floors where filthy. We had to clean them ourselves when we arrived. The screen porch was also full of spider webs and eggs. We asked someone to come and clean the floors and screen porch. They returned and gladly cleaned but after coming back twice the screen porch was still full go spider eggs and webs. The rental company was very nice and sent someone over right away. We appreciated their attention to the problems. All things considered we had a great week. The weather was great, the temperatures were pleasant and we had a lovely time. We will return to BHI.

Sweet Home
We would stay in this house again. Rental company was attentive and helpful (A/C) was so cold we asked for more blankets. Well furnished. One reviewer suggested a larger TV. I concur but it’s not a deal breaker. Everything worked. Oven and stove worked exceedingly well. Wish the golf carts had a little more power but I probably didn’t need to drive any faster as we witnessed 2 accidents and several near misses. Be careful out there.

Thank you for the review, we love Rivendell! We hope to see you back on the island soon!

Beautiful home
This is a wonderful home in a secluded location. It is well appointed and very comfortable. It’s a bit far away from beaches but has 2 golf carts for transportation there. Would definitely stay here again.

Spacious, gracious and welcoming
Great house and quiet location. Lot's of porch (screened and unscreened) to enjoy reading and relaxing. Kitchen is generously sized so multiple people can work without getting in each other's way.
Bikes (and equally important, an air pump) were in the garage as well as beach umbrellas and chairs. Made for a very pleasant week at the beach.

Great Experience
The house is great. Felt super isolated and private. Everything was clean. Kitchen is great and well stocked with cookware. Beds were not the most comfortable, but fine. Plenty of bath and beach towels. I'd recommend a first aid kit, labeling the light switches, and a bigger TV. But great overall!
Travis F - Posted: 8/24/2021
Thank you for the review and comments, we love Rivendell! We will share your feedback with the owners, thank you! A new first aid kit was just recently placed in the pantry, I'm sorry you were not aware it was there. We hope to see you back on the island soon! Thank you!

Excellent home in a quiet and private setting - recommended
Excellent experience. The home was very nice, modern, clean and accurately described on the Intracoastal web site. The location is excellent for those looking for a quiet stay and it is also central to the island, making it convenient to get anywhere. If you take children, beware of the alligator that likes to sunbathe on the golf course sand trap in front of the house. Part of the charm of Bald Head! You will not be disappointed with this house.

Trip to Bald Head
Great week at Bald Head. The only negative was the dishwasher didn't work, but the rental company refunded us some money plus sent cleaning crew to wash dishes. Very professional company.
Glen T - Posted: 8/18/2020
Thank you for the comments!! We are sorry the dishwasher didn't work, but glad we could still make your vacation great!
