Amazing views!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The views from this property are absolutely amazing, you feel perched just over the water. We saw so many dolphins, birds, even an otter! House is nice. Wish it was warmer, patio below is furnished well and would be a great hang out spot! Overall this home has a great layout, nice master with updated shower. Kitchen was well equipped, nice amount of cookware, tools, etc. Some furnishings could use updates due to wear and tear but it was SPOTLESS- kudos to the cleaning team! We really enjoyed our stay and would return!

Nice rental but excessive fees...

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The cottage was fine, clean and definitely worked well for us. However, the $379 per night rental fee actually works out to $572.60 per night after all of their rental fees, service fees, and taxes. Booking fees, miscellaneous booking charge, cleaning fee, service fee. Wow. If you are okay with all of the fees and the real cost, go for it.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We’ve stayed at this rental multiple times! It is the best spot for quiet seclusion and gorgeous views of wildlife, changing tidal scenes, sunsets, etc.!! It’s amazing. :)) (you’ll see many dolphin daily!)The house is beautifully decorated and has all you need in the kitchen and home for the perfect vacation. The deck below is directly on the water and like having an extra room to enjoy! Hammocks, rocking chairs, & other nice furniture. It’s fabulous. We will return & highly recommend. 👍🏻❤️

Stunning views of the river...with gorgeous sunsets and wonderful wildlife!House is decorated so nicely and everything was in order.Only thing I noticed that was a minor negative, was quite a bit of dust behind headboard on floor. Had dropped my phone charger ...and oh my! It made me realize I need to go home and check mine. ;)The beds are high enough that it should be an easy fix for housekeeping, and sure would help those of us with allergies.But we just LOVE this location and it is our favorite after many Kiawah vacations!! Amazing.❤️☀️ 🌊 🦌🐬 🌴

Perfect location for bird watching

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: At the last minute we were told the house we had reserved had a roof leak and would be relocated to another house. I was slightly worried as I had wanted a house on the river so we could bird watch. Not only were we relocated to a house in the same neighborhood, but one on the river. Between bird watching, bike riding and preparing meals together, we throughly enjoyed ourselves. This house had everything we needed and more. The kitchen, though tight quarters, was well stocked with cooking supplies. Decent grater, check. Decent pots and pans, check. Glasses, silverware, cutting boards, check! The lower “sunset” deck was perfect for pre-dinner cocktails with lots of space to spread out. The management team were very responsive and our needs were met with professionalism. Would return again.

Fantastic

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Location was absolutely beautiful, house was wonderful, space below was much better than photographed and expected. The house does shake when people walk given that it is on stilts, which was disconcerting before we knew what was happening (I noticed it mostly while lying in bed at night while others were still up and about in the house), and did not in any way dampen our wonderful experience.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is a beautiful unit so close to the water you could practically fish from the deck off the kitchen!! (But you don’t need to because there’s plenty of space by the seawall to get your line wet.) if fishing isn’t your thing relax in the comfortable chairs inside or out to just watch the dolphins swim by or the beautiful birds!! Well decorated and stocked (could use a blender). 5 minute walk to the beach. Love everything about it!

Kiawah riverfront perfect for fishing, birding, nature, sunsets

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: House was as described and pictured. Fabulous outdoor space underneath cottage with multiple seating areas and nice big table. We spent almost all days just hanging out here. My husband fished 24/7 off the seawall and caught the most fish he's ever caught at Kiawah including trout, red drum, pinfish, croaker, whiting, a 5 foot sand bar shark, and a cow nose ray. We love the Inlet Cove area for convenience to shopping, beach and on/ff island. Views from upstairs were unbeatable, marsh, sunsets, lots of birds, dolphins ....house was comfortable, beds good, kitchen well stocked. Our only suggestion might be a good deep clean ( under furniture, etc...)

With their newly renovated place and prime location as close to the river as one can get we thoroughly enjoyed the privacy and closed in porch of the place. We’ve already rented for next year!

Gorgeous, peaceful & special place

Outstanding property, spotless, well-appointed renovation and incredible location. We spent a lot of time at sunrise & sunset just watching the light, birds, dolphins, and minute by minute changing landscape. Bring your binoculars! A special shout out to ESPM property management company for responding immediately to a few items. Wonderful service and place.

Get up, make your coffee and watch the dolphins, then grab your bikes to go to the beach, ride to the village for lunch and head back to the beach. It is nicely furnished. Has an amazing view of the river, easy access to the whole island. It just doesn’t get much better. And the price is very good.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We love this cottage and its location in Inlet Cove. The views of the Kiawah River and the close proximity to the beach can't be beat. The cottage has been updated and the owners continue to do so. This year the hanging bed in the deck space underneath the cottage was a big hit. We spent many hours watching the sun set from there. I highly recommend this property!

Wonderful home!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We’ve been renting on Kiawah for ten years in Inlet Cove and this has been the best house we’ve stayed in. Updated spotless interior, very well stocked kitchen for our week of cooking, and perfect location on the river. But, our favorite part was the unique outdoor space this house offered with a full deck, swing, two hammocks and multiple lounge chairs. Even in the cool weather, we loved relaxing together there. Rental company was great to work with, seamless entry, and we loved having a rental credit for bikes. Can’t wait to book this house again!
