About this property

BEST LAGOON LOCATION! WALK TO BEACH! FREE POOL!

Just 21 miles from historic Charleston, Kiawah Island is nestled in semi-tropical wilderness, picturesque marshes, and ten miles of wide, unspoiled, golden beaches.

Our NEWLY RENOVATED, lovely cottage on the cul-de-sac in Sparrow Pond is conveniently located in West Beach with only a seven-minute walk to the ocean, five minute walk to the private pool, and Cougar Point's beautiful new clubhouse (includes a great casual restaurant)is only a quick one minute walk and is one of the five golf courses available for you to play on the island. Enjoy a leisurely three mile bike ride to Freshfields marketplace past the beautiful marsh where you will can stroll the many shops and restaurants and enjoy the outdoor movie nights. Our renters often comment that we have the BEST LOCATION on the island!

Do not worry about bringing anything but your clothes and food. We provide beach towels and beach chairs too! Bike rentals are available at discounted rates and can be waiting for you as your arrive and picked up after you depart to cruise the beach or the 30+ miles of biking trails around the island. Be sure to make time for sunsets on the beach or perhaps you would prefer our wrap-around deck which lends PRIVACY and encourages quiet downtime. WARNING! The fountains in the lagoon behind us are mesmerizing and might cause afternoon naps!!!! Rental guests must park in three parking spaces underneath the cottage in the driveway. Please No parking in front of the cottage on the street.

This was such a location for our visit! The property was very clean and orderly. The communication from the owner was superlative. We knew what to expect on arrival, including the fact that we should expect some spices and condiments, etc., to be available in the property should we decide to use them. We were provided suggestions of things to do. Even though we were familiar with the area, they still proved to useful and added to our enjoyment. The beds were comfortable, the linens were fresh, and everything was in working order if not brand new. The property is convenient to everything. Its layout is very conducive to a gathering. The main living space is roomy, well laid out, and comfortable. Thank you so much for a wonderful day with my kids and in-laws! We all have more stories to tell together now.

A fantastic property surrounded by the best there is to offer; pool, beach, and scenic low country habitat. Sandy provides a very detailed and organized list of notes, check in/out process, and things to do in the area. Wonderfully located next to everything, including Cougar Point golf course.

Great for Families

The perfect spot for our family to vacation! A short and easy walk to the pool and beach. The beach wasn’t over crowded at the entry point, so we had lots of space to play. Easy to get to restaurants, grocery stores, and shopping. Sandra was great and very responsive also! Overall, a perfect spot to spend time in Kiawah!
