Spacious Cottage on the Golf Course

This was our second time staying at this property and it just keeps getting better! The bathrooms have been re-done and besides being lovely, gave us the shower space we needed for our party of six. The kitchen looks great, has plenty of room and comes stocked with any utensil you could need. We ate all our meals at the comfortable dining room table and had plenty of cozy spaces to chat, nap or read. The new golf cart quickly got us to wherever we wanted to go on the island. My wife's parents, who travel all the time, gushed about how great the place was and we, of course, agree. Fripp is a great place to swim, beach comb, fish, crab, and bike, and this is a great house in which to enjoy all those things while making great memories in the process.

We just got back from five days at this wonderful house on Fripp Island and were thoroughly satisfied with our experience. The layout of the home was open and airy with several places to read, watch television or talk. It was well decorated, clean and very comfortable. We were provided with everything we needed and found the owners to be very pleasant and responsive. The beach was fabulous, with access only a quick golf car ride away. As a matter of fact, the house is conveniently located so that te entire island can be reached easily by golf car or bicycle. The pools and other amenities were first rate and the pace on he island was very laid back. Given the opportunity, we would definitely stay at this property again.

A word of caution about the general Fripp Island experience. There are rules (imposed by the island management) clearly posted about feeding wild animals, driving golf cars, using flashlights on the beach and using amenity cards. Yet I witnessed each rule broken several times during our stay. Being newbies to the island, we tried to obey all these rules but found it constraining and became a little frustrated when so many others seemed to completely disregard them. I would advise researching that aspect of the experience, discuss it openly with the owners to get their perspective and make your own informed decision. I will say that we found it true, for the most part, that every member of a family (over 12 years old) must have their own amenity card to fully take advantage of everything on the island. We were turned away from dining at the Bonito Boathouse because we only had one amenity card.

All that said, our experience was overwhelmingly positive and we would definitely recommend this listing to others.
