The perfect family friendly beach house

This house was perfect for our family! We have from 2 years old to 55 and the house fit all of our needs! We rented bikes from Alligator bikes and the beach was a quick 3 minute ride! The house was extremely clean and had everything we needed for a long weekend at the beach.

Great House thats Close to the Beach

The house was perfect! It was less than a 2-3 min bike ride to the beach and very easy to get to. We enjoyed the screened in porch in the mornings & evenings and the kitchen offered a large table that easily accommodated 8 people.

Best Ever

We enjoyed our stay in Kiawah for the 4th year in a row. However, this home was the very best so far! Clean! Cozy! Well loved by the owners! Convenient to beach and to Freshfields. We especially loved our bike rides all over the island. A place for everyone in the house to settle in and relax, read, play games! We hope to rent this place every year!

Great Beach Vacation House

Nice property, well maintained and served us well. We vacationed with our 3 sons, their spouses and all our grandchildren. House fit us very well, particularly the kitchen, dining and living area. It is spacious so that meal prep and serving a large group was smooth. Rooms & beds were comfortable. Walk to the beach was easy and nicely shaded! We had a great week and enjoyed the house - the families all said this house really worked well. We also took some great family pictures on the front steps - very nice setting! We would rent again!

Great getaway for multigenerational family of seven!

This house was excellent for our family of seven. The open floorplan and wide hallways were perfect for my three toddlers to run around. The only stairs in the house are a half flight to one bedroom which meant neither my little ones nor my elderly parents had to traverse stairs until we were ready to leave. Only drawback was the walk to the beach which, while easy for many was a bit much for my parents and my toddlers, but we made it work. We hope to be back next spring!

Great Accommodations

Enjoyed the house. Adequately equipped. Beds slept well. Layout was perfect for 4 couples. Great location to the beach … very short walk. Around corner from walking/biking trail which was extremely nice. The only issue which I addressed with property management company was master and adjoining room toilet had plumbing issues and shower doors did not close properly. This did not hinder our experience but should be addressed accordingly. I would recommend and stay here again.

Perfect Family Beach Vacation

My wife and I stayed with our three sons, their wives and our two young grand children. There was plenty of space in the large open kitchen and living room/dining area. Plus the bonus of the porch and deck area provided a quiet outdoor space. The large kitchen was well equipped for us to cook large family meals. It was a short walk to the beautiful Kiawah beach along a quiet bike path - a little far for the two-year-old but we rented a wagon to carry her which worked well. Sweetgrass Properties who manage this house were extremely responsive to our email questions and when we requested a broom to sweep the deck a man showed up with a broom and offered to use a leaf blower on the deck within 30 minutes - excellent service!

The Perfect House

We have been coming to Kiawah for over twenty years. When our family got too big for a condo, we began to rent houses and this one is by far the nicest ever. It was clean and welcoming, and it was perfectly configured for our family which is composed of two grandparents, four parents, and four children ages 14, 11, 5, and 1. The 11 and 14-year-olds loved having the upper floor to themselves and the baby's Pack-n-Play fit perfectly in the large walk-in closet, with parents and 5-year-old in the adjoining two bedrooms with the shared bath. The other two bedrooms were perfect for the other adults. The dining table was big enough for the whole family, and the screened-in-porch was wonderful for our community jigsaw puzzles. We cook our dinners in, so we really appreciated the well-appointed kitchen. It was nice to be so close to The Nest for breakfasts out, and the walk or bike to the beach was so close. We hope that we can keep renting this lovely home for our early summer weeks for many years.
