The wildlife is abundant and breathtaking. The resort is the home of a Great White Egret rookery, where you will see hundreds of these graceful birds settle in for the night. A nest of American Bald Eagles can be seen now and then, and some lucky visitors can actually catch site of a Loggerhead Turtle coming ashore to lay hundreds of eggs in the soft sand.

    This property was perfect for us! Check-in and check out was so easy and we had great communication with the property manager when we needed additional towels. We highly recommend this property!

    The house was a great size and I loved that each bedroom had its own bathroom. But a lot of the items seemed dated and worn. For example the beach chairs and the cushions on the outdoor furniture. The view was spectacular and we had our own private beach. Daufuskie was beautiful but it was sad to see all of the abandoned homes.

    This is a beautiful property located just a short walk from the beach. The property was perfect for us. We all had our own bedroom with our own bathroom. The screened in porch was just a short walk from the beach. It was perfect!

    My sisters and I met for a sisters trip and this home was perfect for our gathering! It had all the room we needed with places for privacy and a beautiful back porch for coming together, and talking and laughing! It was clean and easy to be in. I appreciated our communications with the property manager, Chrissy, she answered our questions quickly and with just the information we needed. I recommend this home and would definitely come back to it.

    This property was excellent. Not knowing the island, we did not understand the complexity of traveling to and from via water taxi. This lack of preparation made our agenda pretty expensive and stressful. It would have been helpful to know that we needed to bring groceries with us. We enjoyed the restaurant services that were open but it was quite limited. Overall it was a fun adventure. Hopefully this review will help you better educate your next guests.

    House is better than what the pictures show! Spectacular view and distance from the ocean! Wonderful screened in porch- where we enjoyed our Thanksgiving meal! Kitchen items were perfect for cooking dinner, even though I bought some items.

    We have stayed on the island many times. This property was excellent. Walking distance to the beach was the best part and loved the huge rooms. Great for children.
