This house was great. Maggie was very communicative and helpful. The restaurant recommendations were fantastic. The pool was very refreshing after a day on the beach.
The location of this house is so convenient. We've stayed on the Folly Field end of HHI for years and this home is a short walk from the beach. It was the perfect spot for six of us.

Only a short walk down the beach path and you are able to enjoy one of the nicest and more natural beaches on Hilton Head Island. Our goal is to provide our guests with a comfortable and very clean environment to enjoy a great island vacation.
We really enjoyed our stay. Neighborhood is very quiet and such a great location. We loved being so close to the beach and having a pool at the house. Home was very clean and plenty of room. Would definitely stay here again!
This property and location were fantastic. Being able to bring our old dog was great! Didn't have to worry about boarding her, and we took her on morning and evening beach walks. Communication with hosts was great.
A week stay with spouse, daughter, SIL, almost 3 year old grandson and two dogs. More spacious inside than pics depict. Easy walk to beach. We did bring our own beach cart/chairs but there were some provided as stated. Pool floats and toys were nice. Communication before stay was always prompt. No need to communicate during stay. It was the perfect place and setup for us.
This house was wonderful! The location is one block from the beach, on an extremely quiet street. The grounds are well kept, with a beautiful pool as well. The property was stocked better than any other VRBO property we have stayed at over the years, with regards to paper goods, toiletries, cooking utensils and spices/condiments. Communication with the owner was first class, and she was always just a call or a text away. We will look to book in the future, and suggest all that look into this property to do the same.

Perfect Stay in HHI
We had an absolutely fabulous time and the house was just perfect for us. We spent a ton of time at the pool and went walking in the neighborhood and beach multiple times a day. The neighborhood was quiet, beautiful and lovely -- I actually prefer it to staying at the big properties! The house was clean, wonderfully appointed and super comfortable with a truly affordable price being so close to the beach! Thank you for letting us stay at your wonderful home!

Thank you!
It's always nice to hear that our guests have enjoyed our house as much as we enjoy it!
Property is exactly as described! Short walk to beach path/beach. Very few people on this section of beach. Quiet neighborhood. The house was the perfect size for 4 adults, 2 kids and 2 dogs! Already booked for next year!

Beach house
Location is wonderful!! Close to the beach/ ocean! Home shows definitely more wear than the pictures show. We had light bulbs out but Maggie had them replaced right away. Don't expect a gas grill. We stayed a month and enjoyed our time.

Sorry about the gas grill, was replaced with a charcoal grill, found that most guest prefer charcoal and keeping up with propane tanks got to be too hard from guest to guest.

Wonderful Vacation Retreat
We stayed at this lovely beach house for our family vacation. It was perfect! The beach is so close and not crowded. The dolphins put on quite a show for us one day about 5 feet away. The neighborhood is nice, quiet and easy to get to. The home is decorated beautifully and all our needs were met above and beyond our expectations. Very clean. The owners have done a lovely job decorating the home and we enjoyed all the artwork.The pool is very nice too.
Shopping, restaurants, grocery stores and activities are easy to access. We are already checking our calendars as to when we might return.
Thank you for making our vacation memories come true.

Great location
Great location, host was accommodating, however, we could only use the poolthe last 2 1/2 days out of a 5 week stay due to the neighbors leaves, twigs etc. same with the deck. My husband had to blow the deck everyday. The pool was cleaned twice a week and for 10 minutes after it was cleaned it was filled with debris again. Staying at any place for 5 weeks should be sprayed for pests more than once. My husband had to kill 3 cockroaches while we were there. We asked for a monetary compensation. Nothing.

Wow! I repeatedly tried to accommodate my guest concerns about the leaves on the deck and in the pool and explained that our "fall" on the island happens to be in March and early April, it came late this year due to a very hard winter for us - snow which has only happened once in 22 years! So not much I could do about leaves, I did increase pool cleaning to twice a week and provided a blower for the leaves on the deck. There are no cockroaches in the house, however most likely the guest killed 3 palmetto bugs which are prevalent to the island which is built on sand. The exterminator comes once a month and did the interior the day before the guests arrived and the exterior additionally during the month. three bugs in 5 weeks doesn't seem like a huge problem especially since this review is the first time I'm hearing about it.
I never felt that compensation was in order since I repeatedly stayed in touch and did everything I could to make them happy.
Unlike a hotel I do not employ a daily pool cleaner and landscaper and I apologize for any inconvenience due to leaves falling from trees during fall and pollen season.

THE OWNERS' ARE WONDERFUL TO RENT FROM!
We have vacationed in Hilton Head for the past 13 years and this was one of our favorite places! The owners were extremely welcoming, very easy to work with (by far the nicest people we have rented from!), and the home was great. It was very clean and beautifully decorated. There is just a short / easy walk to the beach and the pool/patio were very nice. Also,there are many pool and beach items the owners have for you to use. A few small suggestions we would make is; to put a king size bed in the master bedroom, make sure the refrigerator is cleaned out well before the next guests, and have a few more everyday type dishes and bowls. Overall, it was a great beach house for a great price and we would definately reccommend it to others! Thanks for helping us make some great vacation memories!

As owners of a rental property we know that all guests look forward to their family vacation and have high expectations, just as we do when we travel. It's good to know that many of the family's who vacation at our Classic Beach House tell us that they can't wait to return and that is very rewarding.

Not impressed
While the house and location was good, only 2 blocks from the beach, the accommodations were less than expected. The master shower hot water wouldn't work, the beds were not of any quality, and the furniture was far less than comfortable. The house is pet friendly, but the back yard is not so much. The pool is not segregated from the yard to prevent accidents with children or kids.

Response from VrboOwner on 18 Mar, 2020
My apologies toNot Impressed.
Immediately upon receiving your call about no hot water a plumber was sent in. Understanding the water would have to be shut off for more than a day, you claimed to be fine with using another shower for the remainder of your stay.
After a very successful 2015 rental season, this is the first complaint I've received about uncomfortable furnishings and our completely fenced in backyard, most pets love!
Lastly I'm not sure how to segregate our pool from the yard that it's in when the yard is already surrounded by a fence. It has been my experience that most guests who bring children, watch them when playing in a yard with pool.
I apologize again for any inconvenience throughout your stay. I do everything I can to keep my home properly maintained but sometimes things happen unexpectedly.

A Great Vacation House!
We really enjoyed our one week stay at this lovely home. It was our first time visiting Hilton Head Island, we are Florida people, but I think this home might have changed our minds! We have rented many homes over the last six years and there are three important things we look for cleanliness, a great pool/outdoor space, and proximity to the beach. This home had all three. The home was clean and comfortable looking exactly like the photos. The outdoor space was great. We spent our days in the pool while our older dog loved laying in the screened in room on the cement floor with the fan blowing on her. The fenced in yard was also great for a family traveling with a pet. Lastly, it was less than an five minute walk to a wonderful beach. The owners were very easy to deal with, they confirmed deposits with emails and were always quick to respond to any question. We hope to return next summer and encourage anyone looking for a home on Hilton Head to give it a try.

Gratifying to have happy guests that appreciate all our beach house has to offer. We continually strive to present a first class property …it is all part of our effort to contribute to a great Hilton Head Island vacation. We look forward to having our guests back again and again.
This was such a perfect house for a much needed vacation away from it all. The house had the perfect layout and location (just a 3 minute walk to the beach), and it was both nicely decorated and well-equipped. The backyard pool area was so ideal for privacy - the landscaping made it feel like any neighbors were far away, and everything you would want in a pool area was available: pool floats, table with chairs for outside dinners, charcoal grill, lounge chairs, a screened in porch area. The house came with a beach cart, beach chairs, umbrellas and boogie boards, so we used the cart everyday for our morning beach visits, and we had everything we needed. There was a private beach access path that was literally around the corner form the house, and the beach area was not crowded and very family friendly (exactly what we we wanted). Because of the COVID-19 crisis, we stayed home each evening and cooked from home, played in the pool, enjoyed time as a family. This house was ideal and I know we will be back. Maggie, the owner, was very helpful with any questions that I had - thanks again.

Back again!
We love this house. This is the second time that we rented for a 2 week stay. I didn't even bother looking around this time, as why change a good thing?! It is very close to the beach, has a perfect pool for a family of 4 to play pool games or relax on rafts, is welcoming and inviting and includes everything you need. The yard is perfect for our dog, and he even uses the screened in porch while we swim. I can't imagine staying in a tiny condo after staying in this perfect sized home. The location is perfect, too. North and south the beach is crazy crowded. Not so here, due to no plantations or condos. We play Bocce, golf... take up a lot of space because there might only be 10 people on this stretch compared to hundreds by plantations. The bike path is at the end of the street and shopping is about 7 min away. Maggie and Peter are quickly responsive, accommodating, and caring. I love dealing with them and not a management company. Perfect house, perfect location, perfect owners! You can't go wrong here.

More and more guests returning to our beach house and we're happy this family is back again.
We work hard to provide a great property because we know from experience how important a great beach vacation can be. A time to come together as a family and make countless memories. If we can provide a great environment for that to happen all the better.
Great location ! Home was very clean and well stocked. Now- new mattress are needed for every bed and new living furniture is also needed. Wicker sofa and chairs are not comfortable!!
We enjoyed our stay very much! Great location and loved the private beach path. We brought our dogs and they did well! Friendly neighborhood atmosphere.
The title says it all. We have been to HH 4 times since 2012 and have stayed here all 4 times. This was the first time without a dog but I can attest to this being a wonderful home with or without a pet.
There are several updated features since our last visit. I’ll admit, I was a little nervous after reading a few more recent reviews, but I honestly did not find any of their complaints to be valid. The beach chairs were in great shape and the kitchen cabinets are totally fine. I don’t expect the owner to supply my cooking ingredients and the cookware was perfect for our needs. Like most VRBO homes, you should bring/buy laundry and dish detergent and extra toilet paper because there is not daily or mid-week cleaning services. Someone commented on the poisonous snake sign on the beach path. We have never even seen a snake and a poisonous snake can only kill you if you eat it- so don’t. (They meant venomous.) The path is only a block away and is gorgeous. We felt safe going at night, too. The furniture is comfortable and enough for a family. My husband brought his pillow but used the one at the house! The bedding is very comfortable.
We had an AC emergency and Maggie had someone out that day to fix it. She is very responsive.
The location is about 7 miles from Coligny, but such an easy drive. I prefer being away from the crowds and the Folly Field private gate access area is deserted compared to looking up and down the beach. We can play bocce or paddle ball mid-day and not intrude on anyone. Perfect beach location.
I can’t say enough positive things about this home. We weren’t going to HH because the house was booked and then a week opened. I jumped on it. I can’t imagine staying anywhere else.
