Family Vacation

We really enjoyed our stay at the North Forest Beach house. It was very clean, had all the amenities we needed for our stay. We loved relaxing in the morning la in the back room, very cozy. The walk and access to the beach is so easy. We hated to leave. Would stay here again the next time we are in Hilton Head.

Everything You Need

Close proximity to beach. All appliances are new. We were the first to use the outdoor grill and the air fryer! The complimentary wagon was useful for our daily jaunts to the beach. Bring bug spray no getting around that. Inside was clean. Comfortable bed. Enjoyed

Great beach stay

The location of this property is fantastic. Short walk to a quiet part of the beach. We enjoyed sitting in the Carolina room and we were lucky enough to see deer walk through the yard. An older home but it had everything we needed.

A great stay in Hilton Head

This house was perfect for a family of five with a dog. The house is very confortable, very well equipped for cooking, the back yard is just amazing with all those plants and trees, walking to the beach takes 3 minutes, and the neighbourghood is very quiet. We would definitly rent this house again if we come back to Hilton Head for a vacation.

Quiet, Relaxing Vacation

Really enjoyed our stay. House is in an excellent location. Very easy walk to shopping and restaurants. Bike path is very close to the house and from there you can pretty much reach everything on the island by bike. We really enjoyed coffee in the morning in the back sunroom.

Great Location

Great location and access to the beach. Even during the busiest part of the summer, didn’t have to fight for a spot on the beach. The property is tucked away and private. Could use a little updating but overall pretty good experience.

Okay for the Price

Granted that we booked this property only two months out, the result was okay. It's certainly not luxury; more like visiting your grandparents. The musty smell of wall-to-wall carpeting in the living room and bedrooms hits you in the gob right away. (Who decides to install that in what is essentially a beach house?) The mismatched pots and pans only add to the 1970s flavor. (Who needs a sheet pan to make biscuits in the South? Apparently not the owners.)Overall, the location was the catch here. Ten minute walk and you've got your toes in the Atlantic (watch out for the jelly fish). And welcoming the doggies, who did get to (almost) meet the deer and opossum in the back yard (and some kind of big cat the morning we left ). The neighbors were quiet for the tail end of spring break, and it's Hilton Head Island (bring your wallet).Still trying to find the (non-existent) hot tub from the listing...

It was plenty large enough for us and a short walk to the beach.

The kitchen is too small for the number the people the house accommodates. The wall to the dining room should be taken out and make it one large room for both. We enjoyed the sunroom.

Great HHI stay

We were very happy with our rental in North Forest Beach. The property was exactly as described, and was reasonably close to the beach (~7 minute walk), with a beach-access path right across the street. The Carolina room was enjoyable and was where we spent a great deal of time when not at the beach. There's a great outdoor space as well, including a small fireplace. We were also very happy with the management company, which was very responsive to every inquiry along the way from the time we rented through our entire stay.

Nice short walk to semi-private beach. Easy bike ride to Coligny. Very private setting. Enjoyed the fire box and water fountain on patio. Kitchen supplies need improving especially cookware. Landscaper/caretaker very nice and he cleaned up mess from storm the next day.

Quiet retreat

The home is exactly as pictured. The owner has the home completely stocked. It is centrally located with the Coligny Square about 1/2 mile away. The beach is 1 block away. It is an ideal layout for a pet. The entire yard is not fenced however. Overall, a very nice place. I would not hesitate recommending this home.

There were 3 generations..86, 65 and 27 yrs old. The short walk to beach was easy. beach was not overly crowded.The house was clean and comfortable albeit a bit outdated. The Layout was nice. furniture and beds comfortable. carolina room was very pleasant and bright. The yard could use some landscape clean up. its a lovely yard but scruffy. neighborhood was nice and quiet. was wonderful to see the deer coming through yhe yard. lucky enough to see 2 babies and mom almost everyday! we would love to ho back again !!

Clean and close to beach

The home was clean and close to the beach. It had a beach wagon along with chairs and beach toys we could use. It would be beneficial if the outdoor shower had a door so you could actually shower outside and then also a handle to keep the water on. You really need bug spray because the mosquitoes eat you as soon as you walk outside but that is because of all the tress which help keep the house cool. The enclosed porch in the back was nice to sit in and enjoy the many birds, lizards, and deer that came through. It was close enough to the stores that we could ride our bikes for ice cream or food. Thank you for allowing us to use your home for a great family vacation at the beach.

Great Value

Great location. Bike to Coligny plaza. Short 5 minute walk to the beach. Responsive owner. Well supplied kitchen. Read instructions for TV channels and streaming access to avoid frustration. Clean interior. Outside furnishings needed cleaning - covered with leaves and pollen but maybe an unfair criticism given time of year but would be nice if at least cleaned on arrival. Would definitely stay again.

Very good getaway!

We all enjoyed the location and the home. It was very well equipped - more like being at home. There was a nice private yard and we had a dear visiting almost every day! The beach was not far away and so lovely! Almost seemed kind of private. Not very busy and that wonderful HHI even sand was good for walking, biking, suntanning and dolphin watching. Also very nice people. We had a wee cavichon doggy with us and he made friends with many people and several other dogs. Beds were comfotable and clean as were bathrooms. Not sure there were guests the week before us as the air seemed a bit stale but we opened the windows and settled in very nicely. Lots of books there,many sitting areas inside and out, a good bbq and time for puzzles, etc. we are very happy to recommend.

Bugs??!!

The owner Clotilda seems to be a sweet lady but I hate to say I believe the house needs a professional pest control assessment. I woke up every morning with weird bites on my ankles and legs. The bites did not look like mosquito bites. I hate to leave such a review because I did like the location for a family vacation and I don't mean to hurt Clotilda’s business but I did have to spray everything we brought with insecticide, wash with hot water and somethings I threw away. I know this is not a nice review but thats my honest opinion the house needs a professional pest control assessment.

Guest review of 18 Sandpiper North Forest Beach Hilton Head Island SC

We enjoyed our stay very much. The very short walk to the beach and closeness to Coligny was great. The house was spacious and comfortable with the exception of the standup shower. The outside shower was undesirable sharing the same space with the 4 large trash and recycle bins. We loved the fact that this home was pet friendly and had many extra amenities. Parking for two cars were tight. Trees need to be trimmed and maintained one big branch came down and dented the hood of our car in 5 places. With those few exceptions we had a wonderful time enjoying beautiful weather the entire week we were there. Sandy and Lisa

Location was great but house needs a lot of updating to make it more appealing.

The location to beach access was great but house and landscaping need a lot up updating. House was very old and outdated inside with old appliances and decorating needs a major refresh. Yard is extremely overgrown which causes a ton of bugs and mosquitos. Could not enjoy the backyard or the morning room because of the bugs and yard being so overgrown. WiFi was hit or miss all week and TV in large bedroom didn’t work. Overhead lights were out too so room was very dark all the time. Very disappointed with the overall maintenance of yard and style of the house.

Sooooooo glad we chose 18 Sandpiper!

This was our first vacation renting a house instead of a condo and if the chance arises, we would certainly choose this property again. The location was great for us-close enough to walk or bike to Coligny, yet far enough to provide peace and privacy. The neighborhood was so peaceful, but when we did see a neighbor they were very friendly. It was so so nice to have the beach wagon and bikes included and ready to go so we didn't have to find a place to rent them-and there were beach toys galore had we wanted to use them. The home was just that-A HOME! So very comfortable and well kept. The back yard was accurately described as being an oasis, but being the middle of August it was just too hot for us to hang out there very much. We loved seeing a lizard (or salamander), a possum and a couple of raccoons on occasion at night. We appreciated having the well equipped kitchen and laundry room. It was nice knowing I didn't have to remember to pack these items. And of course we were so pleased to find a pet friendly place this close to the beach. Thanks also to Clotilde for being so quick to answer all of our emails leading up to our stay. We had a terrific vacation and staying at 18 Sandpiper was a big part of what made it so great. I hope we get the opportunity to stay here again and I would not hesitate to recommend it to a friend-or anyone.

About the host

A Michigander that flew south after deciding shoveling snow is for the birds!......... But fun to play in...☃️

Why they chose this property

North Forest Beach is still one of the best and most sought after communities even for rentals because it it not a commercial area. It is a quiet forested area with dead-end streets right next to the ocean, but has quick access to town if you are heading out for fun. Expect deer, racoons, possums, birds as part of your forest/beach experience.

What makes this property unique

🏝Our beach is accessible by walking or bike only for residents, there is no public parking allowed. Being in a quiet cul-de-sac and no stairs this ground floor house is convenient for the 45+ crowd and the infirm. There are very few pet friendly homes by the beach that are on the ground level. Don't miss this one!
