About this property
Kiawah Exclusives | 81 Surfsong Road
81 Surfsong Road is a 5 bedroom, 4.5 bathroom Kiawah Island vacation home with only a short walk down scenic Surfsong Rd to the beach access. This spacious home boasts 3,576 sq ft of beautifully appointed interiors, exceptional outdoor living and a recently added pool and spa with long views down Canvasback Pond.
The large back deck has beautiful views of the water and wildlife of the pond, with a screened porch overlooking the pool, perfect for outside dining. The interior has beautiful and bright open spaces for entertaining, the expansive living room skylights filling the home with natural light. A recent kitchen renovation includes all new appliances and opens into a dining room with seating for 8 + 4 more stools at the kitchen counter so the whole party can dine together.
This private Vanderhorst house rental comfortably accommodates up to 10 guests in 5 bedrooms. All three upstairs bedrooms are en-suite. The master bedroom has a private deck overlooking the water, a spacious shower area and a dressing room. The downstairs king and twin bedrooms share a bath, and both access the front terrace, which is hidden from the road for privacy and is drenched with sun all day long.
The Vanderhorst Plantation is a private paradise nestled between East Beach Village and Ocean Park on Kiawah Island. This tranquil plantation boasts maritime forests, marshlands and lagoons, beautiful stretches of beaches and an abundance of wildlife away from the crowds for a true barrier island getaway.
You’re perfectly placed to enjoy the best of Kiawah Island’s championship golf only minutes away at the pristine Osprey Point Golf Course and Peter Dye’s Ocean Course, or a short drive away from Turtle Point or Cougar Point Golf Course. Vanderhorst Plantation is only 4 miles from the top attractions of East Beach Village including Night Heron Park, Kiawah Nature Center, the Roy Barth Tennis Center, and luxury dining and shopping at The Sanctuary Hotel at Kiawah Island Golf Resort.
