Location: Private Homes, North Forest Beach, Island Areas, Hilton Head Island, South Carolina, USA (10 houses, 250 yds to beach, 5 minute walk to Coligny Plaza,)
Accommodations: House, 5 Bedrooms + Detached Unit, 4.5 Baths (Sleeps 10-14)
Southwind has it all! Two houses for the price of one, a large pool with baby pool area, and handicapped accessibility. It is so well equipped, all you need to bring are your clothes!
A classic North Forest Beach property in a great location, Southwind is fun and convenient for every age group. It is on the bike trail, close to the best beach, and a four-five minute walk to Coligny with its shopping, restaurants, and entertainment. The main house is at ground level with no steps, which we all like, and a rear ramp and handicapped bathroom make it accessible to anyone with special needs. Having two houses on one property offers ideal space for both family togetherness and privacy.
What sets this house apart is not only the bonus two-story guest cottage but also the outstanding attention to comfort evident in every detail. From a spectacular pool, to good reading light in the bedrooms, to every imaginable utensil in the kitchen, the owners have thought of everything. The 8 foot flying fish sculpture catching the sun as you drive up is just a hint of things to come.
The decor is fabulous - the art, rugs, furnishings, and rich saturated golds, blues, and reds of Provence combine to create an atmosphere that is special from the moment you walk in. The owners have used their experience as bed and breakfast owners and long time Hilton Head renters to make this home perfect for any family vacation.
Entry: A large room, furnished with a library bench, and a desk with printer, fax,high speed DSL internet access with wireless connection.
Den: Cozy spot for morning coffee, quiet conversation, or a good book. Queen sleeper sofa.
Carolina Room: Extends the length of the house in back. French doors open to the pool and screened porch. Custom banquette with table that seats up to 14, TV, and fireplace make this a great gathering place for the whole party. Sectional, recliner, swivel rockers, and lots of pillows for your comfort.
Kitchen: Newly remodeled, completely equipped. Owners are gourmet cooks, and it shows. Multiple pots of every size, baking pans, casseroles, knives, serving pieces for a crowd, several fun sets of dishes, fish forks and lobster crackers, and glasses galore. Even a cabinet fully stocked with spices. Small appliances include a pancake griddle, blender, and smoothy machine.
Screened Porch: A fabulous new addition, it connects the main house to the guest house. Nice big table for al fresco dining. Haywood-Wakefield rattan couch and chairs, teak buffet, wicker bar, and luxurious six-person spa.
Pool: One of the biggest and best private pools on the island. Enjoy the waterfall fountain and another stainless steel sculpture titled "Flow". The roped off sundeck, 18" deep, is designed for sunbathing on lounge chairs in the water, but it is also a perfect wading pool. Toddlers are happy there for hours while the next generation can swim laps, play volleyball, or laze on rafts. Lounge chairs, a massage chair, a cocktail height table with four swivel chairs and round table with comfy Brown Jordan bounce chairs ensure plenty of seating.
Bedrooms: Large master with king bed with private bath; second master (king bed) with new, handicapped accessible bathroom featuring roll-in shower; Jimmy Buffet Parrot Room with twin beds and Sailboat Room with twins that share very roomy hall bathroom.
Guest House: Charming covered porch with rockers overlooks the pool and opens to living room with queen sleeper. This level includes a dining area, fully equipped kitchenette, and a full bath. Down the spiral stairs is a huge bedroom (king bed) with walk-in closet, laundry room, and half bath.
Garage: Stocked with toys for your use. 5 adult bikes,4 kids bikes, tricycle, beach chairs, cart, sand toys, rafts, floats, boogie boards, balls, Cornhole (the beanbag game sweeping the midwest), and even a two-person ocean kayak with paddles and life jackets.
Yard: On one side of the house, a shuffleboard court and outd
