Beautiful and efficient home

We really enjoyed our stay at Oyster Rake. We actually liked the location being closer to the entrance so easy in and out access. We had several dinners at the various clubs. The house was very clean and had everything we needed. Very spacious. Would have been amazing to have access to the Night Heron pool , but we made it work with lots and lots of fun bike rides. Thank you ! We had a fun, long Easter weekend !

Beautiful Home But.....

My family and I stayed in this home the week following Easter Sunday. This is a very beautiful home but we did incur some issues that left us a bit disappointed. When we arrived, there had been a family there prior and the kitchen was not not adequately cleaned. The floors were soiled from spills and minor trash. There was an air filter in the kitchen that appeared to have not been changed since last year and was layered with dust. Management did have someone come to address these issues, but we ended up doing some of the cleaning ourselves. We were not able to enjoy the outdoor area due to the pollen (which was in no way their fault). The screened porch, adjoining windows and front porch were riddled with spiderwebs so we were a little uncomfortable with sitting out. We were told by the cleaner that they were only responsible for indoor cleaning, but he attempted to clear some of the webs. I would certainly recommend replacing some of the pots and pans as they were burnt and looked aged. Although, we had these issues as I noted it is a beautiful home and we enjoyed it as it is in a quiet neighborhood and the beach is quite close by car. We just wished they had made a better effort to address these cleaning issues prior to our arrival.

Thank you for your feedback. We certainly understand your disappointment in the areas that were not properly cleaned, and do not strive to have our renters arrive to a home in that state. From our records and as you stated, I see that we entered work orders and had a cleaning team as well as one of our property managers come to immediately address everything that was brought to our attention. Regrettably, apart from cleaning, I do not see that we were made aware of any other issues until well after departure. We have sent your comments to our property management team and housekeeping partners to ensure we are all more diligent in cleaning and inspecting the home before guests' stays. We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed the home and your time on the island otherwise.

Great House!

Our family of 6 really enjoyed the home. It is comfortable, well appointed and a lot of space to gather. Location is great for bike riding to the beach or to Fresh Fields Market. Would definitely consider renting again. Just a reminder that you need to bring your own beach towels!

Perfect base for a weekend with friends

We highly recommend this home. It is midway between The Sanctuary and Freshfields. The kitchen is spacious and open to the dining and living areas and it had everything we needed to cook and grill, including a 6 burner gas stove and Weber grill. We biked to Freshfields, The Sanctuary, and The Ocean Course. We comfortably watched football on the big screen TV and played cards and ate meals at the dining table. The back porches are completely private and comfortable for morning coffee and evening wine. Our only concern we had was that we couldn't tell when the propane was turned off (the knob kept turning).

Terrific home

Very clean and spacious. Bedrooms spread out so everyone had their privacy. Master downstairs and three upstairs. Never rented a home where gas grill was so clean and hooked up to natural gas. Living area open and spacious, as was the kitchen. Was there in February so really did not go to Beach so do not know how long of a walk or bike ride. Nice view of marsh from deck and screen porch. Had Google music to play. Did enjoy that. Great three day visit with family..

Great Kiawah Stay!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: 548 Oyster Rake Drive couldn’t have been much better. The house was recently renovated and it was done very tastefully in beach themes. This was one of the best equipped houses we have stayed in during our 20 years coming to Kiawah. A 5 - 7 min bike ride to the beach and the only downside is crossing a busy road which could be tricky with smaller children. Otherwise a quite location and easy in/out near the entrance to Kiawah so easy trip to Freshfields for shopping or dining. All in all a terrific experience!
