Beach house was perfect for my family of 4, including a 3 year old and 18 month old. It was clean and came with everything we needed, and the beach equipment rental was a major bonus. Bikes are a must in this area! Highly recommend this property.

We enjoyed our stay at the cottage - the unit itself was clean / well-kept & location was fantastic. Walking distance to pool & beach for the kids, and a quick drive to Freshfields & Kiawah restaurants. Even though Debby cut our trip a bit short, the $250 beach gear credit was a nice perk as well.

It was a great place- clean and comfortable. The only minor downsides was the coffee filters provided don’t fit the coffee maker and it’s a little far of a walk to the marathon start line. We liked how quiet that area was and easy access to walking trails.

The development is in a great location. The proximity to the beach, River and pool was wonderful. We loved riding our bikes everywhere! The house itself is showing its age and wear. It has been somewhat updated, but needs some maintenance. We were a little disappointed at the quality of the cottage when we arrived, but we all had a wonderful time there. It’s a beautiful location!
