Overview
House, 4 Bedrooms, 3.5 Baths, (Sleeps 10)
This is an architecturally modern house with old-world Charleston-style. Three bedrooms have bath en-suite. Guest suites are on second floor to give you privacy from the main living areas--sleep late if you wish! Fourth Bedroom is a spacious and very private loft area on the third floor where 3 can sleep. The spacious Master Suite is on the main floor and has a king-sized bed and its own HVAC system. The upstairs guest floors can sleep up to 8 (2, 2, 3, 1) and has 2.5 baths. This is a great house for a family. There is an office area in a second floor suite, complete with wireless internet and USB ports to charge phones, for those who blend vacation with work.
Master suite is on main floor and has own deck access and spacious bath.
Living area is bright and VERY comfortable and expands onto the deck or screened porch. It has three seating areas for intimate gatherings, plus a round table for games!
Dinner seating for 8 persons in dining room and 6 in the kitchen and 4 on the porch makes this house a FABULOUS place for a family vacation.
Our house is on the lagoon, and surrounded by natural areas, so that you feel the charm of the low-country embracing you. Kids and adults will enjoy riding bikes on the paved 30 miles of bike paths. Get out the chalk and let their imaginations will go wild--play hopscotch and have a side-walk-artist-contest at the house without leaving the comfort of your vacation home!
Our kitchen is well stocked and comfortable, and spices, wraps, paper goods, etc. are supplied. It features a gas stove, so bring your specialty recipes and enjoy one another. Or, have your family-dinner catered by one of the fabulous specialists in the area.
Come take your vacation with us and come back often!

About Elisabeth St. John
Friends took us to lunch at the Ocean Club, and I said: 'Give me a kayak and a bike and pick me up in 5 years.' That is how we fell in love with Kiawah, and we want to share our lovely home with you. Coming from Aruba, Hilton Head and Fripp, we found Kiawah has the ambiance and the beauty we thought was no longer available. Come bike and walk on the beach with us, kayak with me, watch the deer graze in our yard.....alligators cruise the shore of the lagoon, the water-fowl make their graceful landings, golf on the most gorgeous courses, and fall in love with Kiawah with us! Kindest Regards, Elisabeth and Wade St. John
Elisabeth St. John purchased this house in 2016
Why Elisabeth St. John chose Kiawah Island
Kiawah Island .... what's not to love!
We also love the cool NC mountains--check out vrbo listing #330336, our 7 BR lodge-style home, named SkyHigh!
What makes this house unique
We hear the surf and can see the tidal changes in the lagoon--we don't need a tidal clock! The golf course surrounds our property, yet does not intrude, and the wild-life you see when just sitting on the porch is such a gift. Do you know what a Oster-Toadfish is? Neither did I until I saw this unusual creature in the lagoon. And, the Kiawah Nature Center identified it for us!
Guestbook comments from the owner
We loved the fire place! It was so cozy with the lower temperatures outside. The guys played golf and had a great time.The home is very well equipped and very clean. Everything was great.

Another Great Vacation
Once again I would like to thank Wade & Elisabeth for the opportunity to rent this beautiful home for our annual vacation. The location is outstanding and this home has everything you will need for a great experience. As always, it is a pleasure dealing with owners who are responsive and truly want you to enjoy your time away without and worries. I have said it in the past and will continue to say it, In my 20+ years of vacationing on Kiawah dealing with Wade and Elisabeth has been our best experience. Till next year.
House was spacious, well appointed and the owner was gracious. The house can use an additional recyc
A very beautiful seculed property that ca bring one to a peaceful place quickly. An interesting blend of the lagoon and the beach a short walk away
Perfect Weekend Getaway!!
This house exceeded all of our expectations!! It was walking distance to the beach, had games to entertain us, and a perfect set up for everyone to relax! The back porch was our favorite hangout spot to watch the wildlife during the day and at night. I would recommend this house to anyone looking to visit Kiawah!
A fantastic house, island, and beach!
The beauty of summer is in full view and Sweeter-Grass is so welcoming and comfortable. We appreciated the opportunity to stay a few days. Love the new window and shower doors!
Great family vacation
Beautiful island. Beautiful home
First Class in Every Way
This home in Kiawah is breathtaking. Within the first steps taken through the front door, it felt just like a home away from home. All of the valuable tips and instructions sent in advance made the stay all the more enjoyable. Advice on things to do, places to eat, etc., were immeasurably useful. The St. Johns are first-class people, and were helpful, informative and accommodating every step of the way. The house is in a great location, and is beyond compare. Every inch, both inside and out, personifies the epitome of clean living and the ultimate in southern hospitality. It was a tremendous pleasure to stay there.
