Welcome to the Sea Horse Cottage!

Step back in time to this lovely creek-side cottage. This cottage was renovated with new bathrooms, showers, kitchen, floors, beaded board, upgraded cabinets, and decorated with Bald Head Island in mind. If you love Harbour Village and the close walking proximity to stores, Jules' Restaurant, Boathouse for brunch, Whil of the Wisp, the beach and ferry, you will love the location of the Sea Horse Cottage. The views are breathtaking from the expansive waterfront porches. Enjoy the screened in porch on the 1st floor or sunbathe and relax overlooking the water views on the 2nd floor. Your kids will love the bunk room that sleeps 2 in the loft. It has the best views in the house from the top bunk, including Old Baldy Lighthouse. Enjoy reading your book or watching an evening thunderstorm from the wrap around 360 degree windows and views. Creek and Marsh front location!

This is a naturalist paradise, enjoy birding, including a variety of wildlife, dolphins in the creek and great water views from the 2nd floor deck. Enjoy quick access to paddle boarding and kayaks on the creek just a short walk from the house.

Highly recommend

This house was perfect for our family of 4. Nicely laid out house, reverse layout like most of the homes on BHI. Beds were comfortable, living spaces and kitchen were more than adequate and functional. We loved the location near the harbor to walk to restaurants and Sand Piper. Highly recommend.
