We had a great time staying at this property! We were able to fish and catch some keepers. Having the golf cart was convenient and easy rides to the pool and beach accesses. The neighbors were nice and friendly. Thank you for helping us make memories with our family!
Our family of 5 kiddos, my husband and myself, and a family member took a trip to Harbor Island and fell in love with this house!! It’s so cute and has a fun beach atmosphere. Clean, orderly, just about anything you’d need is all there! I really enjoyed the stay and honestly the only downside was that the house was set away from the beach so it would have been a long walk to get there. BUT there was a fantastic 6 seater golf cart that was provided and made the trek to the beach much easier. Definitely recommend this house!
This house was great size for 7 adults and a child it could of even fit more comfortably. The decor is wonderful, bright and cheery, and my 3 year old grandson spent a lot of time trying to count the fish decorations. The amenities were everything you could think of! Just had to look! Golf cart was great for getting to the beach and pool, as well as an evening ride. We had a great time! Thank you so much!
Pros: - Nice Golf cart - Kitchen had everything needed for cooking - Layout of 4 bedrooms and bathroom, 4 bath total. - Nice looking home - Issue with tub not draining was fixed within 1 day of reporting - Internet was good to bring our streaming TV box as we use at home. - Washer/dryer so we didn't need to pack as much Cons / Suggestions (keep in mind we'd stay here again and have rented many homes in harbor island) - Would prefer a more comfortable bed, matress is extremely hard (both beds on first floor, kids beds are ok) - Would prefer 1 bed being king sized - Don't know if this is new, but when we stayed in the pink house next door a few years ago they gave us a code to the gate. This stay we had to wait on security to open the gate for every golf cart or car ride. Sometimes they don't answer for minutes or requires a 2nd 2 minute call to answer (up to 4 minute wait time, mostly the gate was opened in about 1 minute). This was annoying throughout the trip, also would be bad sitting there if late and mosquitos on the golf cart.
Lovely house. Great location. Poor communication on the managers part as to amenities such as beach chairs, umbrellas, toys, etc. If I had known they were available in the storage area I wouldn’t have had to pack my own.
Clean and well appointed, beautiful location and very secure. We had a very pleasant stay and more than one of us rated it better than Tybee Island. Thank You for making your place available to us.
This house was really fantastic. The decor was colorful and kitschy, and the house was clean. The views of the sunset from the balcony were amazing. The house has all of the bedding and kitchen items that we needed. There was also a good stock of games, DVDs and books. The golf cart was a great addition, and we took full advantage of the Hunting Island pass! The house is an easy drive by cart to the beach, crabbing spots and the resort amenities.
Everything was just as described. We truly enjoyed every minute of our vacation. This is the first time vacationing in this part of SC and we loved it. The home was fabulous! The balconies that over look the lagoon and bay are wonderful and a great place to read and watch the Shrimp boats in the mornings. We even had a visit from Mr. Alligator in the lagoon our first night. We say many rabbits running around each night. While on the beach one day we enjoyed watching 10-15 dolphins as they made their way around the point. We were able to participate in the Pancake breakfast the first Sunday that we were there it was at the community center. We were down during the 4th of July were able to see enjoy the golf cart parade. Check in and Check out was a breeze. We will definitely put this one as a one to come back to in the future.
The house was wonderful! The lay out was wonderful! The only concerns were our keys wasn’t dropped off til the next day so we lost a day on golf cart and couldn’t get in storgeage for chairs, air pump etc. The master bed rooms mattresses were very hard but a quick trip to Walmart for mattress topper sleep was much better! The pots and pans were rusted and had to buy aluminum pans for dinner again just another quick trip to Walmart. But over all the house was wonderful and looking forward to visiting again
My favorite place is my hollow in West Virginia. This particular home in Harbor Island is a close second! I have been here twice now and its beauty and serenity warms my soul. This last time I shared it with my lifelong friends of 40 years and my daughter and her children. Seriously, there is nothing better than sitting on the upper veranda watching the gorgeous sunsets every evening! I took enough photos to wallpaper a room! The accommodations, colors, decorative items and art give it such a wonderful local flavor it's hard to lock the door and leave. You would not want for anything! Whether heading to Hunting Beach, a hop skip and a jump down the road or visiting the Sound and its beach by golf cart, one can't go wrong. The information Mia provided us gave options for restaurants, shopping, local sight seeing and books of the history and geography of the environs. I'm fascinated by the Gullah people that made this area their home. There are plenty of spaces for walking and bicycling and for children to run free. This year we took an hour drive to visit Savannah. I would be remiss if I didn't thank our hosts Mia and Bob for such an amazing vacation! You made everything easy. If anyone is thinking of traveling to this beautiful part of the country I can't possibly recommend this home any more highly! Get away from the commerciality and crowded beaches of Myrtle Beach and Hilton Head. Come to Harbor Island and Beaufort where history and nature are center stage! Let Mia know and she'll make the wheels turn for a vacation home that is one of a kind!
