Bring your binoculars or scope to watch the birds and other wildlife in the marsh.

Moderate temperatures in spring and fall are especially popular with golfers. Although Tarpon Blvd is the main Island road, which is convenient for getting around, our villa is situated well back from the road so that the sounds you hear are either tennis balls or the birds.

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
We have been coming to Fripp since late 1970's0 and stayed in various locations. Leaving Ky after 35 years, we moved closer to Fripp and are now in upstate SC. We bought unit while building our present house VRBO 4153.
Why the Owner Chose Tennis Villas
We bought this Villa while building a new home on Island.. This is a wonderful central location with pool and beach 3 minute walk away. Tennis courts are just outside the door. The tidal creek is active and alive with wildlife. Set back off the main road of Tarpon means it is quiet yet a very convenient Island location. With an end unit (townhouse), gazing across the creek's marshes is not the same as being in the middle of condominium hustle and bustle. We love the variety of birds feeding in
the creek and marsh or building their nests. We have watched osprey over the years, returning to their familiar habitats.
The Unique Benefits of this Condo
Great size of unit and its layout works well. The creek is right off our deck. Quet!. Sunny1. Easy to have privacy or be social by its location. It has a unique setting on Island without through traffic. Walk to various venues in "Beach Club area" without worrying about parking a car or golf cart to go to pools, beach, food. We have a 4-passenger golf cart, covered with "windows" for the cooler weather, for our guests now. The Island POA will no longer allow non-property owners to bring their own golf carts..

We have stayed at this tennis villa two times. Both times it was clean and inviting. The listing description was accurate. The owner is very helpful and friendly. It is close to the center of everything on the island. We did not take our pets with us, but it is suitable for small pets. I would definitely recommend this villa to family and friends. We will be back as well. We had a great time both times!
Recommended for:Adventure seekers, girls getaway, sightseeing, pet owners, romantic getaway, tourists without a car.
