Why the Owner Chose Sawgrass
We love the relaxed nature-based setting, safe beaches, and particularly the marsh setting and many critters. We provide a pair of binoculars and a spotting scope to assist in wildlife viewing as well as severall books about trees, birds, and other critters.
If you bring a cooler and shop on your way to Fripp, we suggest Publix semi-prepaed foods and plan to kick back. Johnson Creek Tavern and the Foolish Frog are our two favorite off-island restaurants. More info in the white "TIPS" notebook.
The Unique Benefits at this House
Biking to and through Hunting Island is easy for all ages - enjoy the light house, the surf, and the very natural settings. Review the map in our "Tips" book before riding over to ensure an easy trip home, as the trails at Hunting Island are not well marked. You will marvel at the changes to the Island as a result of centuries of storms!
Owner's Map of Sawgrass
We live in the Columbia area of South Carolina and are "almost" retired. We know you will enjoy Fripp and think you will also enjoy our home and its laid-back lifestyle. There are some books for you to enjoy in the laundry area.
