Thanks so much for our wonderful stay in Hilton Head. We loved the house and wo did our dog. We really appreciated the restaurant reviews--they added enormously to our stay. The thing that impressed us so much was that the first day we arrived and the coffeemaker went on the fritz, Mary came by that day with a new one! We can't live without coffee, so that made a huge difference. We wil definitely be back. Shelagh Emmott, Toronto, Ontario

Our family met in your beautiful home over Thanksgiving. My husband and I had been to Hilton Head many times, but the other members had not. They were thrilled! My sister kept trying to figure out how to "pack up" your beautiful kitchen to take home. We will be back!

This is the third year we've stayed at one of Chuck's properties, and this one was as wonderful as ever. Great location, great house. We loved riding around on the new bikes too. Thank you Chuck and Mary! We look forward to coming back next year!

This was our second stay in this house and we enjoyed ourselves even more and so did our Standard Poodles! The property is comfortable, attractive and conveniently located.. With nearby world class tennis, restaurants and beaches it's paradise! We're planning our third trip now.

This was our second stay in this lovely home in Sea Pines Plantation. The onwers have kept it in immaculate condition plus it is beautifully decorated. It is fully equiped and stocked for day to day living and it is pet friendly! Our standard poodles quickly 'unpacked their bags' and settled right in. It is super convenient to the ocean, bike trials, tennis, restaurants, shopping, etc. We're already planning our third visit.

Owner response:Thank you for your kind words about our Vacation Home.

We had a great vacation all around. Spacious house was plenty of room for our family of four plus two dogs. Beautiful location within Sea Pines Resort. Loved riding the bikes that were provided all through the resort and on the beach. Thanks for all the great tips including the short cuts to the beach and the great restaurant recommendations. Look forward to staying again in the future!

Owner response:Thank you for your kinds words about our vacation home. Hope to see you again soon. Chuck and Mary

Chuck, Our stay at your house in Sea Pines was outstanding. We enjoyed it so much that it was hard to return home to the cold weather and bare trees. The trip was most memorable due to the use of your lovely home, its convenient location, beautiful surroundings and all its ammenities! Your cleaning staff does an excellent job and the house was spic and span, as advertised! The beaches and surrounding areas encourage you to get out and walk and bike. I think I over did that part, but fortunately HHI also has a great chiropractor that can fix that problem too. Your restaurant review was excellent and we used it quite often in our month stay. The "Sea Shack" was our favorite "local" restaurant. We will be back again! Thanks again for a great month. Doug and Pat

Owner response:We agree - Bikes on the Beach are the Best! Our Policy of providing brand new aluminum bikes with baskets and locks for each has been a popular hit.

We really enjoyed our stay in your lovely home. It had everything we needed and was immaculate. It was just like being home--but in a beautiful location. The proximity to everything in Sea Pines that we needed was great. Our two dogs loved it too!! We'd rent again for sure.

Hi Chuck, Sorry so slow to comment here - daydreaming about Vacation 2008 reminded me I hadn't done this yet! Our September stay at the Columbine house was our best vacation ever, that much better since we could include the family dog. So close to the beaches, lush surroundings, beautifully appointed & clean home to return to each evening made for a relaxing end to our summer. Thanks also for your help with the internet setup - my daughter was able to stay caught up in school while still enjoying the change in venue. Can't decide whether to tell our friends about your properties, or keep it our secret hideaway! Hope to return very soon!

Loved the house and the location. We met neighbors on the sames street and the neighborhood who made our connection better! It was our first vacation with our wonderful dogs and they adjusted very well. The house was comfortable and very enjoyable. Thanks for making our unique vacation even more so!

My husband and I and our 2 dogs absolutely loved your beautiful home. My favorite part was all of the glass walls and windows with the lush tropical plants just outside. The dogs felt "at home" immediately which is important to us. Much better than a small hotel room! Lovely kitchen, comfortable beds, immaculately clean. Loved the decorating. Appreciated the washer/dryer. We will be back! Thanks for sharing your home with us!

We had a great week at this property. It is a wonderful location, easily accesible to the beach, pool, South Beach, shopping, everything that we needed. The house was clean and in very good condition. Thank you for all of your recommendations for restaurants and island tips in general. We will gladly recommend your properties to our friends.

Chuck and Mary, Just to let you know the entire family (including our dog, Lexi) thoroughly enjoyed our stay at your Hilton Head rental. It was our first stay on the island and in a vacation rental home. The comfort and space was a nice change from hotels and the island offers every amenity you could ask for. We will be back!

I stayed in this home with my family and our dogs and it was a great place to stay. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed, the bikes were great to have, and the home was very clean and nicely decorated. The beds were comfortable, the pictures on the website were all accurate and there was a book full of menus, maps, suggestions of where to go for dinner, recreation, beaches and this information was helpful to have. The beach was close enough to ride our bikes to and the neighborhood was quiet and family friendly. The entire family had a great stay and we plan to stay in this home or another owned by Hilton Head Hideaways again.

Incredible does not begin to describe the time we enjoyed on our, first ever, vacation to Hilton Head Island. From the reservations, to check-in to the house itself, everything was flawless and impeccable. The house is beautiful, centrally located, tastefully decorated with amenties aplenty. We especially enjoyed the proximity to the beach, five minutes by bike or car and we were there. The community itself was warm and welcoming and we truly felt at home during this vacation. Even our dog, Bailey enjoyed the adventure. I asked my nine year old daughter to rank this vacation and she said, " 9.9 out of 10!" Thank you for welcoming us to your vacation home, we look forward to our return! John & Patti Graff Oswego, Illinois

We have stayed in this beautiful home for a full month in each of the past two winters. It is well appointed and equipped, immaculate, and in a beautiful neighborhood. We enjoyed short walks for morning papers and many wonderfull bike rides (on the bikes provided!)to Harbor Town, South Beach, and the Sea Pines Beach Club. We are already planning our getaway for next year!

Owner response:Thank you for your kind words about our house and about our Southern Hospitality.
