This home was everything we wanted for our stay on Kiawah! It was clean, had every amenity we needed and more: the kitchen was well-stocked, the bed was very comfortable, and there was everything we needed to make our little dog feel at home too.Overall, our stay gave us everything we were looking for - quiet, peace, relaxation, and comfort. We wouldn't hesitate to book this home again!

A beautiful, spotless, cozy home away from home minutes from the beach. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. All possible home amenities included for cooking, grilling, laundry, biking, and beach. Comfortable beds and plenty of room to spread out. We will return!

This is our second year staying in this home. It is very well appointed and comfortable for our family of 3 couples and 1 dog. Kitchen has virtually everything you need while on vacation and beach “extras” are in abundance-from chairs and towels, to coolers. Looking forward to coming back next year. Thanks for a lovely stay!

Favorite Kiawah Stay

We have been coming to Kiawah for the last 13 years and this has been our favorite home base! It is spacious, clean, resides in a great location (short walk or bike ride to Night Heron Park), has everything you could possibly need and more (beach chairs, grill, kitchen items), and the beds are super comfortable. The lagoon views from both porches were fantastic! The owner took great care to make sure we had all the information we needed to ensure a smooth and comfortable stay.

Perfect stay

Perfect spot for a quick getaway to Kiawah. The multiple levels allowed for plenty of space for my spouse and I, our little, and mother in law. The kitchen was well stocked, and the beach towels, sand toys, boogie boards, chairs and beach cart were a definite plus. S the beach

The house was absolutely perfect for a girls getaway. It was clean and well stocked with everything you could need. We also had a great welcoming committee…small alligator relaxing at the waters edge just behind the house. Would definitely stay here again and highly recommend.

Great layout/stocked

We go to kiawah every summer, but weren’t going to go this year due to another trip. We looked last minute for a Memorial Day weekend spot and this one is great! Split levels give great separation from kids/adults and the garage space made storage for beach trips easy. Will look to stay here again if available.

Great home for a family vacation

My family and I spent a week at this home and had a great experience. The home is very nice and well kept up. The owner provide beach chairs, coolers, beach towels and a wagon for hauling all the beach gear. The kitchen is well stocked with plates, bowls, utensils, etc. and everything is labeled making it easier to find things. Plus, the beach is a very short drive or a 15 minute walk away.
