The home is on the Jack Nicklaus designed golf course overlooking the 17th fairway.

    It was a wonderful weekend! The home and view is absolutely beautiful! The owner and property manager are so great and accommodating! It is refreshing to stay in a rental home that was equipped with so much. They had everything we needed, which is so much different than most rental properties. We cannot say enough about our experience, we highly recommend this property!!

    We found the island to be a magical experience and the house was wonderful. We had 9 children age 4-13 and 7 adults. Everything was great. There are primarily 5 bedrooms and a great room but just a pull out couch. It would have been great to have kings in all the bedrooms but we loved the house. The host Karla was really helpful

    The house is as advertised inside. It is large, spacious and comfortable. Kitchen was heavily utilized for our large family and we made a lot of meals, which brings me to Daufuskie itself. This island has never recovered from the hurricane over a decade ago. The listing doesn’t mention that the beach is unusable by the house. There are large downed trees all along the beach and a busted sea wall making fishing almost impossible. The pool is literally sitting on the beach as a large concrete monument to the hurricane. There are two boarded up condemned houses on the beach right next to this house. The pictures on the outside of the house are pre hurricane I believe. Also, this house is not on a golf course. The golf course was abandoned some time ago and it just large areas of overgrown bushes and grass. We had a great time and if you like it quiet and private then this is a great place to stay. You won’t be disappointed with the inside of the house for sure.

    Great house with a great ocean-front view, plenty of room for a large family. Easy access to a mostly private beach.
