Just left on 8/8/09. Absolute best place for a family of five. Great location, uncongested part of the beach. Great proximity to shopping and resturants.Will see you in July 2010. Thanks for a great experience. The Daisey Family Louisville,KY
We loved our first visit to Hilton Head! The beach was close and an easy walk. Not crowded at all! Definately recommend renting bikes for the week, just don't forget to take a path map with you. Lights for the bike also a good idea for at night. The pool was splendid. We had a wonderful time and the house was very warm and inviting.

Why the Owner Chose Private Homes
We have been coming to the island for 25 years and North Forest Beach has retained most of its beach house character...we love the private, uncrowded beach and houses instead of condos here.
We are in all the hustle and bustle of Coligny in less than 7 minute stroll so we are the perfect blend of peace and quiet and convenience.
The Unique Benefits at this Home
No density of condos on NFB
Beautiful, peaceful sunrises
Uncrowded beach
Walk or bike to anywhere
Privacy of fully fenced in backyard
Owner's Map of Private Homes
Jim and I grew up in New York, travelled and lived all over the world, and still think we have found paradise on this island! Our 3 grown kids are starting the next generation of islanders too...as we convene here for all family gatherings, so they consider the island heaven too...
We hope you will enjoy our special place as much as we do
Anne and Jim
