Beautiful!
This is one of the best houses our group has stayed in over the past 10 years. All of the bedrooms are huge, the Kitchen/dining/living room accommodated everyone with comfortable seating and ample table space. Kitchen is well equipped and stocked with some basic cooking essentials that came in handy. Beautiful, quiet beach! So amazing! I recommend you to rent this house!! Fripp Island is a lovely, peaceful, beautiful place to vacation. A few from our group wanted a bit more of a social experience - so keep in mind that the Island is very remote and it is a drive to get to stores and off island restaurants. We purchased the club cards but regretted it - so expensive for what we used them for. You'll definitely want bikes and/or golf carts--they definitely add to the island experience!

Great Rental
We had a big Marine Corps reunion at MCAS Beaufort. This was an ideal place not only because of location but because several wives attended our reunion. There was 22 people in our group alone and everyone had a bed, the house is spacious the back patio is awesome and the ocean breezes make it even better. Highly recommend for a large group. it is EXACTLY as advertised.

Large house with a large back patio and garage. Friends at another property on the island joined us for some meals, totaling 20 people. No problem. The kitchen has great appliances, pots and pans and the best silverware we’ve ever encountered with a rental. Geminid meteor shower was a bonus. Very nice facility. 5 stars.

We all enjoyed the stay. The ping pong and beach were great for the kids. The amount of bedrooms/baths with king beds was awesome and the deciding factor for why we picked the property. The 7 year in our group found a vape pen and a food wrapper which was concerning - but other than that the house was very clean. Due to the size of our group and the distance from restaurants, we cooked in the house every meal. The kitchen was properly equipped and we found all the items we needed. The dishwasher is not installed correctly - so when we followed the check out directions to load all remaining dirty dishes (which was the first time we used the dishwasher) the very heavy door fell on my sisters foot. There were also some minor maintenance items that need addressed - several of the bathroom cabinet door fronts are not on the drawer, etc. I might have missed all the fees for golf when I booked - but the guys were disappointed in the extra resort fees added for a club card to be able to golf. Overall the trip was a blast and I would recommend to others - but I would stress the resort fees will be added and that a golf cart is really needed for getting around the island.

Great house for large groups
We had a group of 12 playing golf for a few days in the area and the house was perfect. Large home, lots of deck space, great views of ocean. Kitchen was well stocked with regard to utensils, plates, glasses, pots, pans (we did a bunch of cooking) and probably sharpest knives i've encountered at a VRBO home, which was nice. Not a lot of spices so I would recommend buying what you need at the store. Also, Fripp is a great location but do be aware that the closest true grocery store is 30 minutes away. As long as you plan ahead of time to bring what you want/need you are set.
