Bald Head Island Club

This place is Awesome, I transported our equipment to the island on the commercial ferry with our Lowboy tractor trailer. All of the staff are very helpful and professional.

First time on the island and our lodging included membership. We first went to Horizons for lunch. It was 100pm and no one was eating so we were seated quickly, very nice young man was the hostess. Waitress came over soon and she was very friendly as well. We were seated close to the Coffee Stand. The blond haired girl that was working there started arguing with coworker , I looked up to see what the commotion was about and she is staring at me with attitude and continued on. I found her to be extremely rude and unprofessional. I ordered pizza and it was delicious. My husband had meatloaf sandwich and he was very disappointed. It is not meatloaf at all. It is a hamburger with bacon. He also had a double bourbon and it was $30. We left Horizons and moved to the pool. After spending the morning in the ocean, the pool was very refreshing. We enjoyed it very much.

We love coming to the club every year to swim, and our son loves the slide.

Vanessa is a great croquet instructor. We had an absolute blast and learned so much,

There’s definitely good and bad about purchasing a guest membership, but overall it was worth it to us mainly to have other restaurant options. The app worked well to reserve the pool, and if you plan a few days in advance, you should get the time slot you want. We didn’t use the pool as much as we thought because it was lovely beach weather. We also used the app to reserve the pickle ball courts; these should be reserved with more advance notice if you don’t want the hottest part of the day! Courts were very nice. Plan ahead for dinner if you want to eat at the Grille. I wasn’t able to get us a reservation there. However we did come early to the Terrace on a Tuesday. The ambiance was great. We loved: lobster roll, fries, fried trout, pear burrata salad, shrimp app, calamari and crème brûlée. Blah: chicken sandwich and ribs. Our waiter was good. Another evening we enjoyed the Palms. Enjoyed: fish and chips, vegetable pot pie, *beer cheese fondue* Blah: French dip sandwich, butter chicken Our waitress was very sweet. Restaurants were very high priced but it was nice to have the options. Also the ambiance was quite nice in both. Be sure to read the guest member guide; you are NOT allowed on the property at all on Saturday (maybe Sunday). We also enjoyed using the small but adequate workout room several days!
