Add to that a large round dining table that easily seats up to 10 with spectacular views of the ocean! The open floor plan with a soaring ceiling makes living in Fish Tale most enjoyable. The living area is open to the kitchen, dining area, and sunroom. Although it is open, the bedrooms are tucked privately off the open living area.

Wonderfully equipped kitchen, great beach chairs, spacious outdoor shower, comfy beds and phenomenal views.

We had plenty of room for the 10 people in our party and with 4 teenage girls, that is a must;) Thanks so much for sharing your lovely home with us! ##### Leigh M. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michele M.

There were ample toys for the babies and young kids to play with, we didn't need to unpack any toys that we bought. I was expecting larger/newer golf carts, but the 2 4-seater carts did the job just fine! The kitchen was awesome, overall stay was fantastic. Just wish we would have booked longer! ##### Laura M.

There was plenty of room for the kids and adults. Big, spacious rooms, open floorplan. Everything works. The best part was the excellent deck for cocktails overlooking the ocean, beach is right there. Well equipped with nice furniture, great beds- no need to bring my own pillows or linens. Plenty of beach toys and chairs, golf carts. The location in middle of south beach is ideal mid-island. No problems at all. highly recommended. ##### richard b.

Our family came to Bald Head for the first time and stayed at Fish Tale. Perfectly located close to everything, Fish Tale has great decks and living spaces. We loved the crabbing, kite flying and reading. The library is great. Excellent tables for puzzles and games. The satellite radio was a nice surprize, and the kitchen had great gadgets. Everything is well-organized and the beds and linens were of superior quality. We will return again. Thank you for sharing your wonderful house with us. ##### Ben B. ### 6/10 Okay #### Steven B. Feb 19, 2019 #### Nice location, AC problem This house has too much clutter, too many baby toys. Air conditioning was a problem in the entire house and a portable unit was not working well for the master bedroom. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen was recently remodeled. The rest of the house was somewhat dated showing signs of wear and tear. Overall we had a great time because we love BHI! ##### Steven B. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kathryn S. Oct 28, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful stay! We had a wonderful stay with three families all with small children. The bunk room was perfect for the kids and the other three bedrooms were great for the adults. The best part was the sun room area with ALL the TOYS! We didn’t have to unpack any of the toys we brought and the kiddos had a blast. Everything was clean and well organized. The only criticism that we have is that having only two 4-person golf carts was difficult when the house slept so many people. Everything else was wonderful and well stocked! Kitchen was above average. The cooking appliances and the kitchen tools were way above expectations. We loved being able to walk to the beach. The toys and crab pots were great to have as well. ##### Kathryn S.

I have stayed at Fish Tale twice and can't wait to go back again. The ocean views are gorgeous and the deck is perfect. The kitchen is easy to use and the shared spaces are very nicely laid out so the children can play without interfering with others' relaxation. The beds and linens are of high quality and the house is very clean and tidy. The decorating is fresh and fun. You can get to the beach in less than a minute on foot, and the alligator and turtle pond is quick golf cart ride away. The kids loved the great toys available both in and under the house. Fish Tale is our favorite house to visit on the island. It is a great house for the rental price and I highly recommend this property to all visitors to BHI. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lyn F. Sep 7, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fantastic Stay!! We absolutely love staying at Fish. Tale. Everything about it was a pleasant surprise! The house was extremely clean, bright and sunny. We had three toddlers with us and certainly did not need to bring one toy! There is a wonderful area for play complete with toys, cars, books and building blocks. The house is located right across from Beach Access 17. It was easy for everyone to come and go. The outdoor shower with plenty of warm water was a major plus. It also serves to keep the house very clean.The kitchen is fabulous and well equipped. We loved spending our days at the beach and pools, and we loved coming home to Great family dinners and evenings at Fish Tale. Thank you for providing this fabulous property. ##### Lyn F.

This was the worst stay yet. For the price you pay, there should be no issues. First issue when we got there was the freezer. It had ice built up below the freezer so the door wouldn't shut. Water was melted all over the floor. Had to call maintenance and freezer couldn't be used. Next was main living room TV. No picture, only sound. Called maintenance. TV is not working and needs to be replaced. So we all as a family could not watch TV together. Everyone ended up in separate rooms to watch TV. Next, we were short towels and floor mats for some reason. Come to find out after 2 days, most of the hand towels, floor mats, kitchen towels were still in the dryer! Cleaniness was poor at best. All of our feet were black if walking around barefoot. Microwave needs replacing. Stove could only get to 350 and worked iintermittently. We ended up having to broil anything we put in there because the oven couldn't get hot enough. Needless to say, almost everything we needed to use or required had an issue. This was a BHI managed property and we will never use them again. ##### Ted C. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rebecca R. Sep 29, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful Stay at a Very Nice Home My family stayed at Fish Tale over Labor Day Weekend. The home was perfect for us! The amenities were great. There was a playroom for my daughter to use, a highchair, as well as multiple crib/pack and play options. The kitchen was fully stocked and easy to navigate. The distance to the beach was very manageable (less than a block) with access to beach chairs, towels and toys. Overall, a wonderful stay at a very nice home. Thank you!! ##### Rebecca R. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### donna v.

We really enjoyed our stay here! The location is great, just steps away from the beach. The house is super cute with lots of personalized touches. Everything you need is there. Kitchen is very well equipped. And everything is labeled which is super helpful. Our dog loved it too! We will be back! ##### Karina G.
