Bald Head Island · 30+ years making trips to the island

Your island trip, completely handled.

You booked the house. I handle everything else — carts, groceries, dinners, boat days, all of it — so you step off the ferry and actually get to be on vacation. It's all already taken care of.

Build my trip

You're only charged when you hit send — and refunded for anything I can't pull off. No risk.

How it works

Three steps, then you're done thinking about it.

Tell me about your trip

Start with a few quick details up top — or just forward your rental confirmation and I'll already have most of it.

Build it from the menu

Pick as little or as much as you like. You'll watch your planning fee add up live as you go.

Send, pay & relax

Send it over and pay your planning fee. I confirm within 24 hours, book everything, and send a complete trip document — every confirmation and contact in one place. If I can't deliver something, I swap it or refund that part.

The deal:

My fee covers the planning and coordination — you pay each vendor directly, so there's never any money to settle up with me. And you're never left stranded: your trip document lists every booking and a direct contact for each, so anything day-of goes straight to the source.

Start here

Tell me about your trip.

Forwarding your rental confirmation? You can skip most of this — just leave your name and email. Otherwise, a few details help me start faster.

The BHI menu

Build your trip.

Each item is one thing I coordinate and reserve for you. Tap to add — your planning fee updates as you pick. The vendor costs themselves (the cart, the chef, the groceries) are paid by you directly, usually through a payment link I send you.

SC Shoals Club · BHIC Bald Head Island Club — may need your rental's club access (full or guest membership). Not sure? I'll check, and there are open-to-all picks too.

When you'd rather steer yourself — or you're already off the dock and need me to scramble.

Prefer to plan it yourself?

Every booking, every time, and a direct contact for each — so anything day-of goes straight to the source.

Good to know

Risk-free. You're charged at checkout, and refunded for any specific item I can't arrange. You only pay for what I actually book — never for something I couldn't pull off.
Planning fee only. What you pay me covers my time arranging and coordinating. Every vendor is paid by you, directly.
Paid up front by card — a quick, secure checkout, no app required. It kicks off your planning; vendor costs are paid by you to each provider directly.
Two-week minimum in peak season (April–September). Inside that? Add Rush and I'll make it happen.
You get a complete trip document — every booking, time, confirmation, and a direct contact for each vendor. Day-of questions go straight to them.
If I can't land a specific booking, I'll find you an alternative — and if nothing works, that item's fee is refunded or credited. You only pay for what I actually arrange.
Changes: three adjustments per trip are on me; $25 each after that. Adding a brand-new service is just that menu item at its price.
Cancellations: the planning fee is non-refundable. If your trip falls through, cancel everything yourself with the contacts in your document — or I'll unwind it all for $200.
