  • Laura and Alan Words cannot express the thanks we have for the use of your home while in South Carolina. This house could not have been better for the vacation we were seeking. The sailfish being in a closed community, in a remote section of the island was perfect. I loved every minute spent in this house. It was what I would have wanted if I could have some how physically transported my own home to the South Carolina coast for a week. I had time spent with my family away from many distractions and particularly time with my son who finished Marine Corp boot camp at Parris Island. This time spent with him was priceless as it allowed an inactive Marine (no such thing as former Marine) to talk with and pass on wisdom gained to a new Marine. This time spent will forever be etched in our memories and who knows we could see a return to the South Carolina Coast for another vacation like this one. Many Blessings and Thanks The Bradfords

  • We had a wonderful week. The weather was great, not to hot and very little rain. The "Sailfish" was the perfect house for our group. We had our children and their spouses & friend and grandchildren. Sleeping arrangements worked extremely well. The kitchen is very well equipped and right in the center the living/dining space so the cook never missed out on anything. We loved it. Many thanks to Laura and Alan for sharing their beautiful and comfortable home with us.

  • There are so many things we were able to enjoy in the area including the beaches, the food, and the shopping. We were able to take in so many experiences such as dolphin watching, sunset bike riding on the beach, searching for shells during low tide, and numerous other memories we will cherish. We all agree though that the best part of our vacation was all the time we spent together as a family in The Sailfish playing scrabble/billiards/fooseball, having conversations on the porch, and stargazing on the upperdeck. The home was so relaxing, clean comfortable, and very well equipped that we didn't lack for anything. Thank you again for providing such a wonderful setting for a most memorable family vacation.

  • Not only was The Sailfish an immaculate and very agreeable place to stay, but there is a wealth of things to do in the Harbor Island area. Charleston is my favorite city; Savannah and Beaufort are wonderful, too! Hunting Island is just next door and full of opportunities to view nature.

  • Six of us (three brothers/wives) stayed at the Sailfish in July of 2009. We had a wonderful time. All of our expectations were met or exceeded. The house is spotless and well-equipped. My husband is a birder and he was surprised and delighted to find the birding so good right around the house and on the beach. We had hours of fun playing pool, which is not something we normally do. There was a small problem with the golf cart and Laura called several times in order to make sure that it was resolved. I just can't say enough about how impressed we were. We feel that we got a great bargain here and we intend to come back many more times!

  • Mom and I had a few days of Serenity at The Sailfish before the rest of the family arrived. The whole first floor is an open concept and as my father would have said "lots of dancing room". The whole house was impecably clean, neat and had everything that we could have wanted for our stay. All the beds were comfortable, with plenty of pillows and extra blankets, the bathrooms a good size (and a lucious tub in the one of the master suites), plenty of parking. A back stairway to get right to kitchen with your goodies. The back porch was the perfect place to eat (two tables), relax, listen to music (outside speakers) or just listen to the birds (there is a birdfeeder). Not far from the clubhouse or the beach, lovely narrow winding road to and from the main road of Harbor Island. Stop at Publix or Food Lion on the way in (both are 10 miles from house) We were there for my nephew's graduation from Marine Corps Boot Camp and it was a perfect time for the family who came from NY and us from FL to spend together. We made signs, baked brownies and had a wonderful buffet for our new Marine before he and his brother and girlfriend ascended upstairs for games of pool, foosball and darts. I would recommend The Sailfish for any number of getaways, family reunions or other gatherings. The owners were very helpful and resourseful and they have provided a wonderfull Information Book about the house and the local area. Don't forget to read the Guest Book - lots of helpful info from former guests. Sunrises on the back porch with coffee, midnight stars on the upper back porch, and "light shows" out towards the ocean when it storms. We all had a wonderful time and I would love to return..

    For this troika each family immensely enjoyed themselves. The surounding beaches are full of wild life, the Gay Fish Co. has excellent seafood and between the ocean & the pool each child got waterlogged at some point (8 in total). The adult drink of juice was the Mohito. We celebrated my 43rd birthday here and look forward to celebrating more. The walks on the beach in the morning were great, and we enjoyed the great views of Hunting Island.

    Thank you very much for the use of your lovely home. Our families had such an awesome time together! The cousins got to share some wonderful time together making everlasting memories. We thoroughly enjoyed your well-equipped kitchen and the decks. The decks are a perfect place to get into the word! What a blessing this week was! Thanks again, and may God bless all the families that enter your beach home!

    We had a spectaclar experience in your cottage on Harbor Island. In the morning, our early risers would get their cup of coffee or tea and go out on the deck of the main floor. The view combined w/brilliant sun rises and the smell of coffee gave us a relaxed feeling. Sometimes the atmosphere felt similar to what it would be like in some of the countries in Africa. Our family very much enjoyed your regal dish ware. The bikes and the golf cart were very helpful for moving around the island. Sometimes around sunset Emma would ride her bike areound the area and it made quite an impression on her about the beauty of nature. The game room was entertaining and the view from the south made it possible to see beaurty no matter from which angle or place one stood. Thank you so much for allowing us to stay in this cottage and experience the breathtaking beauty of Harbor Island.
