WELCOME
I think we can all agree that a beach house should be close to the beach! The oceanfront can be very expensive and the back island is too far to walk. Oceanwoods is the perfect solution and our Oceanwoods Cottage is the ideal location for a great Kiawah Island vacation!
OCEANWOODS
Oceanwoods is a very popular Kiawah Island neighborhood for families who love a cottage near the beach. Secluded, at the end of Eugenia Avenue, it is close enough to walk to Night Heron Park or bike to other island amenities. The main attraction is the close proximity to an uncrowded part of the beach. Our cottage, 468 Oceanwoods, is a very short walk to the beach. You can actually hear the surf from the cottage.
THE COTTAGE
Our cottage has three bedrooms and two full baths. The master and one of the guest bedrooms each have a queen size bed. The other guest bedroom has two twins. The living room also has a pullout queen sofa. So the house can sleep up to a total of eight. The cottage features a fully equipped kitchen, dining/ living room, screened porch and sun deck. We have a charcoal grill just off the deck. It has cable TV, high speed internet with Wi-Fi, BluRay, washer, dryer and dish washer. It is all set up for you when you get there. Linens are provided and your exit cleaning is included with a weekly rental. Our cottage offers everything you could want for a relaxing, restful vacation. And it’s all just a short walk to the beach.
RESORT AMENITIES
On the question of pool access. We are not a 'resort managed' property and Oceanwoods does not have a community pool so there is no pool access for our guests. All other resort amenities such as golf, tennis and nature and kid's programs are available ($). If access to a (crowded, noisy) public pool is a must for you, sorry, we can't help. What we can and do offer is free, unlimited access to the nearby Atlantic Ocean and a relaxing, convenient location from which to base your explorations of the unique island of Kiawah.
OTHER INFORMATION
No smoking inside the cottage.
Well behaved pets with responsible owners are welcome (with a fee).

We've been coming to Kiawah Island for several years and this time we found the perfect place! Fantastic location in a quiet neighborhood, super short walk to beach, and you can hear the ocean from the cottage. The cottage itself was spacious with a nice open layout, very clean, and has all the amenities you need. The owner Paul was professional while also being very friendly and helpful. We loved this cottage and the great location!

We very much enjoyed the week in Kiawah. The cottage is very accessible to the beach. Our pooches had a great time too. the cottage is very comfortable and just the right size for 3 couples and 2 pooches. we cooked 3 of 4 nights in the cottage and found the kitchen worked very well. the owner was very helpful throughout the whole process and answered questions promptly. We will be back. i highly suggest this property to anyone.

We had a great time at Kiawah. Thanks for sharing your cottage, we found it to be exceptionally neat/clean. The cottage was just what we needed and more. It was in a beautifully landscaped area and a very short walk to the beach. The owner was exceptionally friendly and helpful when providing prompt/thorough information in response to our e-mails. I would definitely recommend a stay at this Oceanwoods Cottage. During our stay, we did a lot of walking, both beach and trails. We also spent much time in Charleston and the surrounding area. There is so much to do. I only regret not having time to kayak the island's waterways and take the Haunted Tour of Charleston by boat.
Owner response:Thats what I always say when I get home from Kiawah. We should have stayed longer! I'm really happy you and your family enjoyed your visit. We strive to have the cottage in perfect condition when you arrive. Tom, our property manager and Krystyna and Janina, our cleaning team exceed expectations! Families will find the cottage is the perfect place from which to base their activities or for just relaxing and spending time together.

Paul, we had a great week! Your cottage is lovely -- and exactly as it was described. Absolutely no surprises. The beach access was so nice (especially with a 3-year-old in tow). Kiawah beaches are beautiful, and we had a perfectly relaxing week. Thanks so much for sharing your home away from home with us.

Thank you for renting your wonderful cottage to us! We felt right at home and had such a fun and relaxing time. The walking trail to the beach was so close and so easy to get all four of our small children to each day. The cottage is so family friendly and it was great to be able to let the children run around the cottage and not worry about breaking knick knacks, etc.! The beach was perfect and never over crowded. With 4 children under the age of 5, it was easy for us to relax and manage everyone! Kiawah is such a beautiful island and the proximity to Charleston was really great. We enjoyed the beach every day, took many bike rides on the island and took a couple day trips to the South Carolina Aquarium and Children's Museum. Our family had a wonderful time and it was a great end to our summer. Scoops & the Nature Center were a huge hit with the children and Fresh Fields Village was perfect for shopping!

Once again we had the perfect family vacation in your cottage! The location is perfect for beach-going and bike riding and our family did plenty of both! We saw quite a few deer and several large alligators while biking and each afternoon we watched the dolphins play in the ocean. BEAUTIFUL! We enjoyed a day in Charleston as well as a minor league baseball game( just a short drive from the island). The house was spotless and comfortable and we look forward to returning next summer!
Owner response:Well I enjoy doing all the exact same things when I'm at Kiawah. About the only thing on my list that was not mentioned was surf casting off the beach. Occasionally I actually catch something!

Paul, We had an awesome time on Kiawah. Your place is great! We'd love to come back next year. I think Kiawah would be a great beach to bring my family. I'm going to recommend it. We saw a loggerhead turtle walking up the beach to lay her eggs. It was so cool! Thanks so much for the suggestions. Shelly
Owner response:I'm glad to hear you had a great time at Kiawah. I've seen a few of the baby turtles going down to the water but I've never seen a mother going up to lay the eggs. You were so lucky to see that! Of course you, and your family and friends are welcome back any time.

Paul, I can't thank you enough for sharing your wonderful beach cottage with us. Everything was just as you said. Close to the beach, about a 100 yard walk I would say. Nice comfortable, clean and uncluttered. Nice screened porch, nice deck, nice everything! We loved riding our bikes on the endless bike trails but especially on the beach at low tide! I have never done that before. We had a great time and would recommend it to anyone. Take care, Bill S.
