(3BR, 3 BA, 2Q, 2Tw, SLPs 6, 1 Golf Cart, Pet Friendly, Friday Turn in Peak Season, CHECK IN 3:30PM / CHECK OUT 9:30AM) If tranquil tableaus are what you seek, look no farther than Au Beau Marais! This very private, dog friendly Harbour Village charmer, located on a quiet cul-de-sac, abuts Bald Head Creek, and astounds with spectacular marsh perspectives. As you step under the arbor, through the white picket-fenced yard, you'll perceive gentle ocean breezes as you alight to the covered front porch and into the cozy foyer of this reverse floor plan. To the left you'll find a sunny corner suite with two Twins and a full bath (with tub) which also opens onto the hall. Beyond, a light-filled bayed Queen bedroom, with a sliding door, grants access to a waterside covered porch and sun deck. This is the perfect spot for dipping toes or communing with the Island's natural inhabitants. At the end of the hall, the Queen Owner's Suite's two walls of glass doors delight with panoramas of sun sparkling off the water of the Island's magnificent marshes. Grab an Adirondack just outside on the semi-covered deck and while away the hours. This suite also houses a large Master Bath with his and her vanities, a water closet, a shower, and a large walk-in. A laundry completes this level. At the top of the stairs, a roomy kitchen overlooks the sun-drenched vaulted living and dining areas which are surrounded by windows. A baby grand sits in a bright bay just across from the elegant dining space. Nearby, the generous living area, anchored by a slated fireplace, is very inviting but what steals the show are the halcyon Island prospects everywhere you look. Savor these inside or on this level's bowed, semi-covered porch. It's an excellent place to watch the morning sunrise or relax with an afternoon treat and it even renders glimpses all the way to Sunny Point! So ideally situated and enjoying proximity to the marina, shops, and restaurants-as well as providing a four-passenger cart for guest use and including WWP's 24/7 Property Manager Assistance Line-which means you can reach needed help even after hours or on weekends-Au Beau Marais will assure you un Beau Moment (a good time) on your vacation! (The crofter is not part of the rental unit.) An additional $300 nonrefundable pet fee is required for each guest dog.

Jun 23, 2025 #### Excellent Stay This was our second summer staying at Au Beau Marais, and we loved it! The house is wonderful, and you can't beat the location- the view out back is incredible! We will definitely be back again. ##### Anne B. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Todd H. Jul 28, 2024 #### Great location, comfortable house Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Lovely location in a comfortable home. Incredible views from the very private backyard. ##### Todd H. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Jennifer F. Jun 17, 2025 #### Excellent Stay We love this place. Will be hard to beat the views right on the inlet. Would recommend that the backyard be cut before guests arrive esp. those with pets. Also, their is erosion along the backyard that is against the wood seawall. Several deep holes that could cause potential, dangerous issues for those with pets or small children. With that being said, this is our second time staying here and absolutely love it. Sitting out on the upstairs deck and the back ground-level deck is fantastic. Wonderful views from the living room and kitchen on the second level. Can't wait to go back! ##### Jennifer F. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sandy A. Jul 10, 2023 #### Spectacular Marsh View Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: What a lovely home with a spectacular marsh view! Au Beau Marais is beautifully decorated with plenty of natural light. The well-equipped kitchen and marsh-facing decks were enjoyed by our entire family. We would happily stay here again! ##### Sandy A. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brent B. Jul 9, 2024 #### Great vacation home Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed our stay at Au Beau Marais. Very eclectic, French-themed interior design on level 2. Could use some updating in some areas (mainly bathrooms) to keep up with the rest of the house but was perfectly fine for our family. The reverse floor plan offered great views of the marsh and the large back porch on the creek is fantastic. Had some WiFi and kitchen sink drainage issues but WW team responded within 30 minutes on both to fix - very impressed with the service. Notable that this rental only has one golf cart but I believe that is reflected on overall pricing and you can rent a 2nd cart if needed. ##### Brent B. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jennifer F. Jun 16, 2024 #### June 2024 Stay We’ve been visiting BHI for 10 years now and absolutely loved our peaceful stay.
