Great Family Gataway

This home is comfortably furnished with plenty of seating for adults in the living room and lots of space for kids to play in the room over the garage. The kitchen is well furnished also. Nice dishes for adults, nice unbreakable dishes for the kids. Plenty of drinkware and mugs. Great cookware and utensils. We all enjoyed the heated wading pool. Beautiful deck overlooks the golf course. Very quiet neighborhood. We had a great time!

A Wonderful Stay!

You won't regret booking here! The house was wonderful! Everything we could have possibly needed was at the house. My kids loved the bunk room and the pool/hot tub. The location of the house is perfect too if you are looking for a nice and quiet spot. The property manager was very helpful (lost remote, closest beach parking location, etc.) and all questions were answered quickly. My family and I loved everything about the house!

Excellent Property with Accommodating Rental Company

The property is in a great location right off the 9th tee box of Turtle. The well equipped kitchen made for dinner at the house very simple. We had several boxes delivered to the house prior to our arrival and the boxes were placed inside and on the porch so we were able to access those upon arrival. The property has a great layout where people can gather in the central rooms and then for sleeping arrangements have plenty of down time without being on top of each other. The plunge pool is a huge addition to the location as it made for perfect end after hot days on the course.

Family Vacation

Overall the property setup was great. The cleaning crew did a fair job, the sheets in an upstairs bathroom had what looked like blood stains. I don’t think those sheets were changed before we got there. Also the rug in the living room had not been swept. The bug situation was crazy, living bugs, dead bugs all throughout the house.

Awesome Home!

We had a great trip to Kiawah and so enjoyed this home. It is well appointed with special touches! The owners had a Xmas tree and stockings up for our arrival on 12/26. We loved the location- sitting on 9th hole; we were able to watch golfers tee off! I highly recommend this home- was everything seen in the pictures and more!

Great Family House!

The owners have done a nice job to make sure the house is comfortable and welcoming even greeting us with a beautiful Thanksgiving basket! Thank you! That was such a nice surprise! The kitchen is well stocked and has everything you need. We came here for Thanksgiving and I packed everything but the kitchen sink only to arrive and find out that I didn’t need a thing! We were a family of 4 adults and two young adults. Everyone had their own space and privacy. The house was clean and nicely appointed. The room above the garage was an added bonus for the kids. We had a couple of Foose ball tournaments and it allowed the girls a space to study for exams and do their yoga.. The weather was perfect for us to have morning coffee on the porch and watch the golfers play through. The location of the house (for our family) was great. We did long bike rides around the island and then jumped in the car to meet up with friends on the beach. It’s a great house and highly recommend it. The new pool will make a great addition to the property! Thank you for allowing us to enjoy your home. The Romness Family
