Why the Owner Chose Ocean Creek, Fripp Cottages
We live in the beautiful town of Beaufort, only 16 miles from Fripp Island. The beach in this part of the lowcountry is the most beautiful beach on the Atlantic. We wanted a vacation property a short distance from us for our children and grandchildren and friends to enjoy. We did not want Hilton Head as it has grown too big and too crowded. We like that we can walk on the beach and feel like we are on a secluded island in the Caribbean, and yet be only an hour and a half from Savannah or Charleston. We also like the superb golf courses and tennis facilities on the island. The restaurant food is excellent also.
The Unique Benefits at this House
Deer abound through out the island. It is a kid's paradise. The island is secure and your children can have a lot more freedom than in a more crowded vacation location. If you like shopping, dining, exploring ante-bellum homes or just relaxing, Fripp is in the middle of all this. And it is much more reasonable than similar island vacation resorts.
Downtown..... great shopping and a wonderful Waterfront Park and children's playground.
Owner's Map of Ocean Creek, Fripp Cottages
We are Linda and Ken. We moved back to Beaufort in the mid 90s. Linda grew up in Beaufort and has always called it home, even when we were not living here. Our family loves the area and our grandchildren think this is their home, although they and their parents live four hours away. We like the lowcountry atmosphere and the beauty of Beaufort. We love to travel so we get to see vacation properties in other locations. But we always put the SC Lowcountry at the top of our list.
