NEW! Adorable home close to beach with gorgeous lagoon and golf course view

Just listed 6/24/19 after a recent purchase and renovation. First time on the rental market. We look forward to welcoming you to our peaceful haven! Wake up and enjoy the beautiful lagoon and Osprey Course view surrounded by lovely, mature palm and oak trees dripping with Spanish moss before starting your day in wonderful Kiawah Island. Enjoy an easy, ~5 minute bike ride to the beach under ancient oak trees down the Allee of the Oaks path of the orignal Vanderhorst Plantation. After a day at Kiawah’s famed beach, golfing or kayaking, sit back and relax to the breeze on the screened porch. There is a good chance you’ll capture a view of the abundant wildlife and striking evening sky before retiring to a night’s rest in this four bedroom home set back from Governors Drive. Situated in a fabulously central location behind the second gate in Vanderhorst Plantation yet offering easy access to everything Kiawah has to offer, including the beach, golfing, the Sanctuary and the Ocean Course.

We spent an amazing 4 weeks at this home. The views were amazing, the house was spacious, and it had everything we needed to relax and enjoy our time. There is a bonus bedroom above the garage that was awesome for the kids to spend some time together. It’s close to a bike path that takes you right to the beach. Highly recommend. Would stay again.

Blissful!

This our 8th family visit to Kiawah Island, and we loved every minute this year. Beautiful house, great location and peaceful backyard view. The hostess, Jill, is so accommodating. The other half of our family stayed at the property across the street. It was fun for everyone, and especially nice that the cousins and grandchildren could easily go back and forth. I especially liked that the beach bike path is right there. Can’t wait for next year! This set up worked for us and we’ll all be back!

Renovation was done well. House is nicely laid out for families with multiple aged guests as there are bedrooms on both sides of the home. Good for two small families. I did not like the location right on a main road and the driveway is laid out in a complicated way. The host was excellent in both communication and responsiveness.

Great Layout, Wonderfully Responsive Owner

This is a well-laid out house in a perfect location. It is within the second gate (which is a plus for me) and a lovely, easy, welcome bike ride to the beach. Also easy ride to the Sanctuary Resort and its amenities. There was ample room for 7 people (ages 19 - 52) and I love that, unlike so many rentals, it wasn't just a sea of queen beds. It would be an easy house to have younger kids in as well - two of the bathrooms are accessible to all. Perhaps most importantly, the owner was responsive before and during our stay - ready to offer guidance and answer questions. It really felt like staying at a friend's house.

Enjoyable Family Getaway

Our our stay at Kiawah in this property was fantastic. The house is well laid out for families and is centrally located on the island. The owners of the property were super responsive to any questions or issues that arose. It is their care of the home and attention to guest satisfaction that makes all the difference. Thank you for a great week!

Fabulous week

We rented this house and it was perfect for our family for Spring Break 2020 Take 2. We had four couples - so everyone had their own space which was very nice. But we could also hang out in the common area to watch the wildlife, play games, or just enjoy each other's company.
