December 5, 2007 The Hammocks
Bald Head Island, North Carolina
Dear Jill,
As we gear up for a long, cold winter, I'd like to direct your attention south to an amazingly scenic -- and still virtually undiscovered -- island off the coast of North Carolina. If you like the beach, golf, and the great outdoors, take a moment to read all about fractional ownership at The Hammocks.
The Location
  Aerial View of Bald Head Island
Off North Carolina's southernmost cape, Bald Head Island is a beach retreat unlike any other. Miles of unspoiled beaches and acres of maritime forest provide natural playgrounds. Because no bridge connects the island to the mainland, the crowds are kept away. Bald Head Island is all about relaxing and slowing down a bit -- in fact, no cars are allowed on the island, so you'll be sure to smell the roses as you walk, bike, or tool along in your electric cart.

Getting to the island is easy. It's just a short ferry boat ride from Southport, NC. The ferry landing is a 3-hour drive from Raleigh-Durham and Charleston, 4 hours from Charlotte and Winston-Salem, and just 5 hours from Savannah and the Atlanta area. It is also an easy drive from the New Hanover International Airport in Wilmington and the Myrtle Beach International Airport.

The climate on Bald Head Island is semitropical, with the warm Gulf Stream keeping the weather generally mild year-round. Temperatures range from an average high of 54 degrees in January to 89 degrees in July.

The Benefits

When you own a home in The Hammocks, the benefits reach well beyond your front door. You'll receive three valuable membership privileges. The first is the on-site Hammocks Club, which offers a fitness room, sauna, outdoor hot tub, heated pool and billiards room. A friendly owner services coordinator is available to assist you in any number of ways, from booking tee times to making your dinner reservations.

Your second membership is to the nearby Bald Head Island Club, which allows full access to its excellent golf course, croquet greenswards, tennis courts, swimming pool, pro shop, fitness room, dining room, members grille and lounge.

Finally, you'll receive membership privileges in the spectacular oceanfront Shoals Club located at the Cape Fear Point. The inclusion of these club memberships alone makes The Hammocks a remarkable value.
