Enjoy a relaxing and fun stay at "Lands End", our elegant and upscale oceanfront "southern villa!" Whether you are looking for a romantic getaway for your honeymoon or anniversary, a respite from a busy professional life, or a monthly rental for your relaxing retirement, our "adults only" one-bedroom villa is a perfect choice!
About Our Location:
You will soon see why we named our villa "Lands End" when you look at the aerial photo of our complex! Located in the prestigious Ocean Point area of Fripp Island, our villa is part of The Village of New Haven which juts into the Atlantic Ocean and is wrapped on two sides by the ocean. In fact, our unique location provides one of the only places on the east coast where you can view both sunrises and sunsets during winter months!
Our complex makes the most of its dramatic natural site with a large "ocean viewing deck" and upland beach, as well as numerous walkways and seating areas which feature stunning ocean views.
In addition to our fabulous natural surroundings, we are located next door to the Ocean Point Pool and just across the street from the Ocean Point Golf Course (George Cobb design) and Ocean Point Grill. Just a short drive from our villa are five additional swimming pools, Ocean Creek Golf Course (Davis Love design), six tennis courts, and a small fitness center. Three-mile long Fripp Island has many natural bike and walking paths with expansive views of surrounding tidal marsh, lagoons, and best of all, the Atlantic Ocean!
About The Owners:
Our names are Plummer and Jeri Mifflin. We love to travel and discovered and fell in love with Fripp Island over ten years ago. Though we have travelled throughout the world (including Alaska, Europe, Mexico, the Carribean, and the Greek Islands), we knew instantly that Fripp was a special "paradise" and purchased our villa on our first visit. Plum is an independent contractor in East Lansing, Michigan, and Jeri enjoys being an elementary school principal in Okemos. We love going to Fripp on our vacations and enjoy sharing our home with you!
About "Lands End" - Our Southern Vacation Villa:
Our oceanfront villa offers stunning views of the Atlantic, as well as incredible luxury and beauty. Recently renovated, our villa is equipped as a "home" and not just a vacation rental! Our furnishings, original artwork, and ideal location will definitely help you feel pampered and special throughout your stay. Please note that due to recent renovations, our villa is now "adults only" and we no longer rent to families with children.
Though the Beaufort area boasts many excellent gourmet restaurants, our fully-equipped kitchen, views of the ocean from almost every window and front patio, beautiful "sunken garden" and outdoor grilling area definitely invite you to "cook in" and relax "at home."
Our living room slider door is just steps from the water and New Haven's brand new "ocean viewing deck" and upland beach area. Our villa is on the main level and overlooks the ocean where you can enjoy watching shrimp boats and dolphins. Sunsets and sunrises are plentiful as you relax in comfortable rocking chairs, sipping your morning coffee or evening cocktail.
The interior of our villa is fabulously decorated in "southern/island style" and very comfortable. All living and dining furniture are new in 2007. The bedroom has a queen bed and luxurious quality bedding. Our fully-equipped kitchen is designed for "gourmet cooks." Our villa is an "end unit" with lots of windows and natural light, sufficient storage for your personal items, and a convenient washer/dryer.
New this year--in addition to interior renovations, we now offer high speed internet access in our villa for guests who need or want to remain "connected" while on vacation.
An additional treat for guests: Use of our personal golf cart (known as "Sweet Pea") is included for weekly renters. Shorter and longer-term renters may also make arrangements for this option to be included for an additional fee! This special transportation gives you a relaxing and scenic way to explore our special island paradise.
In respect for the comfort of our guests, we are "No Smoking" and "No Pets."
"Some Extra Options You Can Consider"...
As our guests, you will always enjoy the quiet beauty and peacefulness of Fripp, including the beach, two on-island golf courses, walking and biking paths, and many off-island attractions. Our rental rate includes all linens and departure clean. South Carolina tax (11%) and optional Fripp Club amenity cards are extra.
The purchase of amenity cards entitles you to "guest membership" in the private Fripp Club, including use of all club facilities (e.g. restaurants, fitness center, pools, and tennis courts). Amenity cards must be reserved at least one week prior to your visit. Cost for amenity cards from Memorial through Labor Day is $50 per person per week. Cost during the "off season" is $35 per person per week/$25 for weekends. Cards for children 12 and under are free.
In summary...upscale decor, original artwork, and beautiful furnishings, combined with staying at one of the South's undiscovered and premiere vacation destinations, will make your vacation in our "Southern Villa" one to remember forever! |
