Lovely Cottage in Greenslake

Just spent one week on Kiawah Island in this lovely 2 bedroom cottage. Nice lagoon view where I enjoyed my coffee each morning. Kitchen had all necessary equipment for preparing meals. We brought our dog who enjoyed watching nature through the sunroom window and walks on the beach. We golfed at the beautiful Cougar and Turtle point courses, walked to the beach and rented bikes for the great bike trails on the island. Property manager was very responsive. And will definitely be back again!

Cute and cozy cottage.

The cottage is adorable, well stocked w/ multiple coffee makers, blenders, pots/pans and a good knife set. (The dishes/glass wear could use some updating and replenishing). The hardwood floors throughout made cleaning up after sandy paws a breeze. The location is quiet, close to the golf course and a short walk to the beach. Check in was a breeze. We would definitely stay here again.

Quick getaway

The property is as descibed, and layed out well to maximize the available space. Access to the beach is a 10-12 minute walk (we found it much easier to drive 2 minutes to the access across from Cougar Point). Home was well stocked, with great A/C for the 95* weather.

Kiawah Cottage

The cottage was clean and had nice accommodations, we could not figure out how to get the outside grill temperature over 250 degrees. When we booked our stay we thought we would have access to the non-resort pool, however, it was closed for the season. The construction in the area presented some safety challenges for walking and biking. Overall we truly fell in love with Kiawah and enjoyed our stay.

Excellent vacation location on Kiawah Island!

The Greenslake Cottage was a fabulous place for a Kiawah Island getaway for our family of four! Wonderful, peaceful location on the island, with a lagoon in the backyard filled with wildlife. The rockers on the back porch quickly became my favorite spot to have a cup of coffee in the morning. The cottage has lots of space for my husband and I, plus our adult children, to spread out. The kitchen was clean, very functional, and well-stocked with any kitchen amenities you can think of. We ended up cooking together instead of going out most of the nights because it was so much fun! The beds were comfortable, and the bathrooms were very clean. We loved the washer-dryer which was handy to wash our beach sandy clothing before our flight home. Short walk to the ocean beach or community pool. Overall, we loved our time at the cottage and hope to be back soon!

Awesome Kiawah

We have been coming to Kiawah for 22 years now and still love it. We stay in different locations to experience the different aspects of the island. Our stay at the Greenslake cottage was very pleasant and wouldn't hesitate to return. The cottage was clean, comfortable and overall a nice place to stay. I didn't give it 5 stars because of a couple small things. There was an "off" odor from what I presumed was the lagoon the whole 2 weeks we were there. Unfortunately, it was bad enough to where we did't enjoy the back deck and view. I'd like to think this isn't always the case. Also, the community pool was close and clean but is basically in the woods which depending on the time is mostly in the shade throughout the day. Not a deal breaker and maybe some people would prefer it that way. Location to the beach is also close and convenient, just understand that this is the busier end of the beach. All in all, this is the older end of island but is still very nice.
