Our Vanderhost Plantation beach house is located one block over to beach path. House overlooks a lagoon on a quiet residential street located beyond the second security gate and is a convenient 8 minute walk to the beach. (google proximity map is incorrect).

As you enter the front door, you're impressed by a feeling of open space and natural light. High ceilings, hardwood floors, bead-board wainscoting and beautiful custom cabinetry painted a pale sun-washed color, create the perfect setting for your beach vacation with family and friends. The large great room on the main floor over-looks an outdoor screened-in-porch and deck with salt-water pool, built in gas grill, wi-fi and stereo with built in speakers throughout the house. As you stand on the back deck overlooking the tranquil lagoon surrounded by palm trees and dense shrubbery you'll understand why we always look forward to our next visit. Heading back inside to the kitchen you'll find yourself surrounded by an abundance of cabinet space, Sub-Zero refrigerator, Wolf range/ovens and a Bosch dishwasher. The island is spacious and serves as a convenient location for meal prep or extra seating. The adjacent dining area seats 10 comfortably and the outdoor covered deck also has an expandable table that seats up to 10 for Al fresco dining. A flat screen TV, stereo, and DVD are situated at the far end of the great room with plenty of overstuffed couches to accommodate family and guests.
The spacious first floor master suite has a restful. 'beachy' feel, with French doors opening to the back deck, high ceilings, flat screen TV, in ceiling stereo speakers and beautifully appointed bath area. Also on the first floor is a full size laundry room and access to the basement and garage area which is equipped with table tennis, air hockey, basketball and foosball tables. Basement has commercial size dehumidifier for year round game playing comfort.

The second floor opens to an upstairs family room with comfortable seating area, flat screen TV, stereo game console, and in-ceiling speakers. There is internet throughout the house and a fax/copy machine. Four bedrooms are located off this area. One BR has two twin beds and the other three have queen beds, large closets for storage. Each bedroom has it’s own private bath-room. At the end of a busy day swimming, golfing, playing tennis, or riding bikes, you'll find that there's no better place to catch up on your sleep!
Garage is equipped with 220 volt electric vehicle recharging outlet.

    Our family swooped in for a wonderful vacation at 23 Bufflehead. The home was all it was advertised to be. We've rented many homes over the years and this one was as good as any. Weather didn't cooperate averaging in the 60's and low 70's for late May and early June but there's lots to do. One heads up, Kiawah resort is getting stingy with booking reservations in the resort if you're not staying in a resort-controlled home. They're making it more difficult to book dinners, spa and tee times. We got past this but it's clearly a change in policy.

    This property is beautifully situated on the lagoon where we watched the heron and the alligators. The house has great common spaces - inside and out, which makes it great for families.

    The house was in a great location and it was very comfortable. It was well stocked with beach chairs and games for the teens to play like ping pong, etc.
