Our home is a private residence located at 602 Porpoise Circle which is a peaceful neighborhood next to the golf course. Enjoy the cool island breeze from the front porch swing or rocking chairs or relax in the screened porch off the dining area.
The master bedroom is on the main level with a new hard wood floor and a new king bed, high-end bed linens, designer towels, flatscreen tv with cable, private bath and walk-in closet. Also downstairs is a spacious living area, fully equipped kitchen, half bath, and full sized washer/dryer.
Upstairs are two guest rooms. Each room has a queen bed and a flatscreen tv with cable. There is a full bath between the bedrooms at one end and a small den at the other end. The den includes a chair-and-a-half with a twin hide-a-bed.
The front porch is a lovely place to sit and enjoy the island sounds from the porch swing or one of the rocking chairs. The screened porch on the back has a table and chairs and the deck also has a seating area.
Fripp Island is private and gated. The island is three-and-one-half miles long. The beach is pristine white sand and secluded. Fripp is a wildlife and bird sanctuary. Deer roam freely throughout the island.
We are located toward the north end of the island and it is about a 5 minute golf cart ride to the best beach on the island. To access the beach, go south on Porpoise Drive, left onto Remora and right on to Dolphin Road. There is also a dock about two blocks to the north of our home that is a great place to go crabbing.

This home is an excellent place to spend your vacation. It is off the beaten path in a tranquil setting. The golf cart was used as our main source of transportation to the beaches and pools. The house was spacious and comfortable after a day of playing on the island. The bedrooms, as well as the rest of the house, were nicely furnished and include plenty of drawer and closet space so that we didn't have to live out of suitcases for the week. The front porch swing was a nice place to relax. We have stayed in two other homes on Fripp Island in the past. This home is a great value for its size. We'll definitely keep this on the top of our list for the next vacation to Fripp!Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, girls getaway, sightseeing.

Our stay at your beautiful home on Porpoise Circle was wonderful. The home was exactly as it appeared in the photos. It was very clean and well maintained. It was a plus to have the golfcart and the bikes. They were all used everyday. Lines, pillows, towels were very nice. The only thing I needed that was not available was an iron and ironing board. And an electric mixer. Rachelle was very pleasant to work with. We will definitely stay at your home again. Thank you for sharing it with us.Recommended for: Families with young children, age 55+, romantic getaway.
Owner response: We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. Iron, ironing board and mixer will be added ASAP. Thank you for your feedback! We hope to hear from you again!!

Year Purchased: 2011
About the owner: One of our favorite evening activities on Fripp is to take the golf cart to the Beach Club for ice cream and then cruise the island looking for deer and alligators. Our two boys (ages 8 and 10) love the pools and wildlife!

We love Fripp for the nature and quietness.
