Perfect home for our trip

We were there for a wedding at the Club. House was a perfect location. We got to play and enjoy the golf course. The house had everything we needed and was lovely with a beachy feel. Really enjoyed our stay.

Tarpon Pond Review

Comfortable and Welcoming House

The house is in a lovely location with a great open view of the golf course. It is well equipped and feels like a home and not just a place to stay. Out of the four places we have stayed in on Seabrook this is our favorite!

This house had it all!! Perfect for our family of 5 (3 adults and 2 teens plus our dog) everyone had their own space when needed. Kitchen was well stocked with everything you’d need to make lunches and dinners…and the gas grill under the house was a huge bonus. Boogie boards and chairs available to use really kept the teens happy too! Furnishing were beautiful—can’t wait to book this house for next summer! Property management team was extremely helpful and responsive! Book this place on Seabrook, you won’t be disappointed.

Seabrook

We love Seabrook. It is our go-to beach vacation. We had a great time. We love Tarpon Pond and stay there always if we can. It's always quiet, not crowded, and a true vacation. The house was clean and had plenty of room.

Great cottage stay

Love this cottage, right on the golf course. Owners have taken great advantage of all of the outdoor spaces, with seating on both decks and a full entertainment area under the house. Kitchen is well equipped and the furniture is comfy. It seems like the owners have spent time at the cottage because you have everything you need. Only thing to add would be bath mats. Great stay!

Home was clean and very nice. The couch in the sun room was very comfortable. Beds were comfortable, two of the beds are adjustable, one being the king bed, which was great for nursing my infant. We had issues with the internet, the password had been changed , but we did end up getting the proper password. Appliances were nice and new. Master shower was lovely and modern. There are no mixing bowls in the kitchen, but it had everything else we needed. There was no bikes or Xbox when we stayed there , wasn’t a huge deal, but we were expecting them based on the listing. Enjoyed the dart board and sitting area under the home.Beach was not too far away, we loved walking the beach during sunset. We went to the ocean front pool one day and it was hot and crowded with very little shade and seating. The only restaurant on Seabrook we went to was the pool bar , menu was very limited, but the food we got was good. Overall it was a nice short stay and would book this rental again.

Christmas on Seabrook Island

Overall, a nice place to stay with family for the holiday weekend. Appreciated that the property was dog friendly as it enabled us to bring along our pup; however, it was clear that previous renters who brought pets didn't treat the property as they would their own home and failed to clean up after their pets, which left permanent marks throughout the home. The kitchen amenities (pots, pans, utensils) were not as clean as we had anticipated, which made our plans for cooking in challenging. Aside from the pet stains on carpets (and some dirt marks easily visible on the white sofas) and cleanliness of the kitchen amenities, it was a great sized property with lots of common areas for gathering, relaxing, and enjoying family and the location was convenient for relaxing on the island. The hosts were easy to get in touch with and the check-in instructions were clear.

Island Getaway

The home was very comfortable for our group of lady friends all over 50 most from SC driving in and me catching up as well as all working since a few of us are busy professionals. So we also had to use the wifi, printer and be able to work comfortably with a nice view of the golf course and its wildlife. We went to the beach a short drive every day but 1 and I walked in the neighborhood. It was comfortable sleeping all of the 5 friends who joined me 2 couldn't stay over night, because their schedules wouldn't allow, but could comfortably done so. Parking was adequate. We could have used the bikes just didn't get around to it. The kitchen was well stocked for what we needed and wanted to do. A couple things were fixed quickly and easily while we were there. Everyone was pleasant to talk with. Thank you all.

Home at the Beach!

Great light, amazing view of the golf course, spacious, and a perfect, tucked-back location. The bathrooms were fantastic, and so is the kitchen! Really top notch. The bedrooms were a good size, and comfortable too which doesn’t always happen on vacation. The only thing that really fell short was the carpet. It is really stained and kind of gross-looking. The place is very clean, which we appreciate, but please replace the floor…especially with pets being allowed. A better floor would go a long way and match the quality of the home. Everything else was spectacular and we will definitely be back!

A great stay on Seabrook!

We had a fantastic time at Tarpon Pond Cottage during the Thanksgiving holiday! Literally everything that we could have needed was there, not to mention everything was in perfect and clean condition. The game/kids area upstairs was an amazing little spot for the kids to play and seeing the deer outside each evening on the golf course was so fun for them, as well! The kitchen and bathrooms are updated and the cottage is cozy and clean. We loved the check-in process and communication was great if we needed anything. We give this place 5-stars and will definitely stay here again when we go back to Seabrook!

Review 509 Tarpon Pond

The location is amazing, the house is spacious and has great views. The problems - There were stains on the carpet, couches, and bedding, dust on the doors, windows, and fans, and the outdoor space under the house was covered in green mold/pollen/dirt that I spent multiple days spraying the concrete, tables, and chairs etc down with water to clean off the pollen and green/brown coating that had built up. The house stilts, literally everything. The rockers and adirondacks hadn't been wiped down in ages, went through a thing of wipes to get them useable. Other than these things, the house is perfect for a beach vacation stay. Would stay again.
