Why they chose this property

We love to walk the beach at Fripp Island Resort. We live full time on Lady's Island, Beaufort, SC. Since Fripp Island is so close to us and has a wonderful clean beach, it was an easy choice for us to purchase a Sunsuite. Being a private island, we always feel very special when we drive through the gates. It is a quiet and restful place. There are so many places to view the most magnificent sunsets on Fripp Island. Be sure to check them out! We have had many writers stay at our Sunsuite in winter. It is especially a quiet time in winter. Bring or rent a bicycle. One of our favorite activities.
