Beautiful and comfortable home. Would stay there again. The only issues were that the front door keypad did not work but they had back up keys. And the tvs were not smart tvs so we could not stream shows.

Best find on Kiawah for a family!

Where do I start? So quiet, great location, plenty of space, clean, fully stocked kitchen and lagoon view settled next to a little forest! You will not find a better bang for your buck for families on Kiawah. We will be back and can’t wait

Great family vacation!

Quick family get away and our first time to Kiawah! House was fantastic. Check-in was easy. House had everything we needed. Kitchen is well stocked. All of the rooms were clean, tidy and comfortable. Plenty of closet space if needed. We rented bikes and rode them to and from the beach each day. Only an 8 min. bike ride to beach access. Enjoyed the many bike trails. We would definitely stay here again. The island is beautiful. Great sunset at the Ryder Cup Bar at The Ocean Club!

Beautiful Kiawah

Lovely, spacious home. Our 6 adults and 4 children had more than enough room. Beautiful, well stocked kitchen, comfy beds, plenty of hot water pressure in showers. Kids enjoyed watching birds and alligator in pond off porch. Nice 10 min bike ride to beach under spanish moss draped live oaks. Host was gracious and quick to respond. We would love to return in future.

Home away from home

Our week at this home was wonderful! The owners were very responsive before and during our trip. There had been several updates/renovations to the home since we had originally booked the property, which was an added bonus. The home is about a 5-10minute bike ride to the beach, so it would be lovely if the property offered bikes (however it was very easy to book some from another company during our stay). Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property and would book again!

Superb Stay

We really enjoyed our stay here. The view of the marsh from the living room was so relaxing. The kitchen was very well stocked and nicely updated. The bathrooms also had been updated - the master bath was beautiful! The rest of the house was somewhat dated but the beds and furniture were comfortable. Outdoor gas grill worked great. We had zero complaints. The house is about 1.3 miles or so to the beach, so I recommend renting bikes. We used Island Bike & Surf (highly recommend) and rented a pull behind cargo trailer for our beach chairs etc. Turned a 30 min walk to a 10 minute ride to the beach. I would stay at this place again in a heartbeat!

Wonderful location with ample space for many people. Some renovations beautifully completed (baths, kitchen), others likely/hopefully pending for some worn/tired parts of home (wallpaper, rugs, deck, deck furniture). Host responsive. Would be helpful to have physical information book in house explaining island/map, beach access, use of appliances/electronics as we deliberately did not bring extensive computers/internet with us.

Home in middle of renovations

This property has potential to be beautiful and it’s located in a pretty part of kiawah’s maritime forest. 10 min bike ride to beach. The owners were responsive. The kitchen and baths have been fully renovated but updates are still underway. The property was clean on the interior, but the decks were unusable, dirty. And outdoor furniture splintering. Interior doors did not lock, bedroom decor is dated, carpets really need to be replaced. Kids bedroom is in odd location of 3rd bedroom and ran hot, no HVAC flow. Sleeps 12, but 2 in sofa bed off kitchen with no privacy. Definitely see potential in this property after the renovation is completed

Family Vacation

A great property for having an adult family vacation. We had no children with us . Beautiful kitchen, great layout. One main floor bedroom/bathroom( perfect for parents), main suite upstairs is well maintained and has a very comfortable mattress, other bedrooms are down the hall. One bedroom had to be accessed thru another bedroom. Overall a great property.

A Beautiful Home —Just right for a family stay!

This home is phenomenal! The description and photos are accurate except that bathrooms were in the process in being remodeled so they’re even nicer than the photos. A wonderful setting—close enough for a bike ride to the beach and very close to Marsh Island Park—such a quaint and picturesque locale. We will most definitely return!

Great Getaway spot for bachelor weekend

This house hosted us during a bachelor weekend with a group of guys, and it was perfect. All amenities were exactly as described, the location was awesome (6 minute drive in both directions to great beaches) and the owners were incredibly responsive when we almost cancelled last minute due to COVID concerns. If you're heading to Kiawah with a group and need a house, this is a great choice.

Fun Family Time

Five adults & 3 children (toddler, pre-teen and teen) and the house was perfect for all of us. This is a spacious home with good flow; we were able to be together and also space apart. I especially loved the dining table which seated right quite comfortably. The hosts were responsive to our requests and a fun time was had by all.
