Easy Walk to Beach, Pool and Dock. Beautiful Sunsets

Year Purchased: 2001

Why the Owner Chose Inlet Cove

We bought our little piece of paradise quite by accident when we visited Kiawah for a friend's wedding. When we saw our cottage, we thought it was almost too good to be true. It had everything we were looking for in a place by the sea. There's an easy walk to the beach and a beautiful pool and the location by the river makes it ideal for us to enjoy canoeing and kayaking. We also catch Atlantic blue crabs there that we love to eat! The house itself has a screened porch, a fireplace and a view of the water. What could be better?

The Unique Benefits at this Cottage

Our cottage is in the middle of what seems like a nature preserve with all kinds of birds, wildlife (deer, bobcats, alligators!) and we reguarly see dolphins coming in to feed in the river. Biking on the beach, tennis, and boating are high on our list. Of course, Kiawah is known for the fantastic golf courses right out our front door. We're only 20-30 minutes away from downtown Charleston, a beautiful historic city with worldclass restaurants. There's a great aquarium there too.

 

Owner's Map of Inlet Cove

After a lifetime in music and education, we've retired and are busy enjoying life. We have time now to enjoy our two daughters and their families with two wonderful grandsons and a perfect grand-dog. We live in Lexington Kentucky, home of great racing horses and the famous Kentucky Wildcat basketball team.

    • We have never rented a place in which more care was taken to insure that the visitor had everything needed to enjoy a vacation. The cottage is so close to the beach and pool/dock that it makes it so easy to enjoy whatever you feel like doing. Also, the wildlife was exciting with dear outside the porch at night. We would definitly rent here again!

    • We really enjoyed our time in Kiawah. The cottage was great! It was clean and well appointed. We loved being within walking distance of the beach and pool. Everything else was a short bike ride. We hope to visit this wonderful island get away again soon.

    • Very lovely, comfortable home, situated beautifully, with easy access to the ocean. Great base from which to explore beautiful Kiawah Island and tour historic Charleston. Dual large bathrooms and baths made it ideal accommodations for two couples. Owners were very friendly and helpful. Wouldn't hestiate to return. Very positive, A+ experience from all perspectives.

    • We felt like we were in the middle of a forest when we stayed at this cottage! The first morning we saw a bobcat out back and some very unusual birds. The cottage was very comfortable--a nice place to make memories!

    • We loved our recent stay at Riverview Cottage. We've been to Kiawah many times, but this was our first time staying in the Inlet Cove community. We loved the home and the Inlet Cove community - home was nicely furnished, short walk to the beach, short bike ride to the pool and shared dock area (which has a really stunning view). It was also very easy to access the various shopping areas. We would definitely stay here again.

    • We vacation on Kiawah often and have just had a second stay in this unit. It is by far the most comfortable place we have rented. It is more a well appointed home than a vacation rental. The porch is so comfortable and private with the sound of the ocean and the birds. We will be back.

    • We loved staying at your house on Kiawah Island! We had a great time kayaking on the river and seeing all of the island wildlife (we even got to see dolphins in the river one day!). It was so relaxing to sit on the back porch enjoying the view of the river and the evening sunsets. And since the house is just five minutes from the beach, we spent a lot of time sunning, biking at low tide, making sandcastles, and swimming. One of our favorite things to do was walk on the beach at night. We have never seen so many stars! Your house is ideally located to the new shopping area right off the island. It was great to have groceries, restaurants, and shops so close! We can’t wait for our next visit to your home in paradise! Mark & Melissa Johnston Silver Spring, MD

    • This home is beautifully furnished and a delight to vacation in-with comfort, cleanliness & a river view off the back deck. It is wonderfully convenient to Nightwalker Park (beach), nice pool, close to Freshfields Market, enjoyable biking, and is in a quiet neighborhood. Kiawah Island is what a vacation island should be. If only resort planners across the nation had seen the same vision with wildlife & vegetation preservation, etc! This home reflects that attention to nature, with deer and other "friendly" wildlife meandering around at any time. We eagerly anticipate our annual summer vacation to this home and Kiawah Island all year long!

    • We have enjoyed staying in "Riverview Cottage" several times. What a treat! The owners have gone the extra mile in renovations and updating. A Kiawah Vacation is an experience like no other. We can highly recommend this cottage.

    • We've vacationed at Riverview cottage several times and it's the perfect get-away spot. You feel right at home as you enter the door. The cottage is very clean and the furnishings are very nice. We've never rented a more comfortable and well stocked vacation home. It's the cottage we request each time we go to Kiawah. There's lots to do on the island and in Charleston, but it is also a nice place to go for just relaxing...walking the beach, crabbing, riding bikes on the surf, watching sunsets from the deck. We can't wait to go back!
