Harbor Island, South Carolina
This updated ocean view home comes complete with a golf cart, propane gas grill, beach towels, use of the neighborhood pool and a great ocean view! You will fall in love with the panoramic ocean view seen across acres of beautiful tidal marsh from this updated home.
Tucked into a cul-de-sac in the neighborhood of Nautical Watch, this home is less than a minute's walk to the Nautical Watch pool--available only to Nautical Watch owners and guests, and a quick 3 minute golf cart ride to the Beach and Racquet Club. This home is light, bright, and beachy….offering all of the comforts of home with a spectacular ocean view. 31 Nautical Watch has abundant natural light, with sliding glass doors in the living area, the master bedroom and one guest bedroom, and large windows in the dining area, kitchen, and second guest bedroom.
Entering the home, you can see straight through the living area to the marsh and ocean beyond. A dining area comfortably seating six is to your right, with a pass through to the galley style kitchen with plenty of storage room in the pantry for your groceries.
Kick back in the living area where ample seating includes a comfortable sofa, a pair of ""stress less"" recliners with ottomans, an armchair with ottoman, and a rocking chair. (Please note the fireplace seen in the photos is decorative only, it is not a working fireplace.) There is a flat screen cable television and a DVD player in the living area, but we promise it is going to be hard to take your eyes off the view!
The living area opens onto a large deck stretching across the marsh/ocean view side of the home, with a table and chairs, and an umbrella to keep you comfortable. You can watch the tides ebb and flow through the tidal marsh where herons, egrets, ibis and wood storks often pause to catch their dinners.
Beyond the marsh you can see the Atlantic Ocean and across Johnsons Creek to the maritime forests of neighboring Hunting Island State Park.The large master bedroom features a king sized bed, 26"" flat screen television, and a full, private attached bath boasting a beautifully renovated (2022) walk in shower! A sliding glass door in the master conveniently opens onto the ocean view deck. What a way to start your day!
On the opposite side of the living area is a short hallway accessing the guest bedrooms, second full bath (also renovated as of 2022), and laundry closet with full sized washer and dryer. One guest bedroom has a queen bed, plenty of drawer and closet space, flat screen cable television, and also offers private access to the bath. This bedroom, like the master, opens onto the back ocean view deck by way of sliding glass doors. The second guest bedroom is at the front of the home and is great for children, with flatscreen cable television and both a single daybed and a double bed that could sleep two.
Harbor Island is gated beach community on a small barrier island, 14 miles southeast of charming, historic Beaufort SC. The island is bordered by the Harbor River on the north, Saint Helena Sound and the Atlantic to the east, and Johnsons creek to the south. Harbor is very much a get away from it all location, with nothing commercial inside of our gates. Also at the BRC you will enjoy use of the Olympic sized pool overlooking the marshes of the Harbor River, a small kiddie wading pool, a playground, sand volleyball court, tennis courts and a well-equipped fitness center.
Nearby Beaufort offers plenty of options for off-island enjoyment. Downtown Beaufort offers fun boutique shopping, horse and carriage rides through the historic district filled with beautiful antebellum homes, and a gorgeous waterfront public park stretching along the Beaufort River where you can watch boats passing by or docking in the marina.
Dolphin watch and other day cruise boats leave from the marina and offer great opportunities to see the lovely lowcountry scenery from the water. There are many dining options from fine dining to fast food, and fresh caught local seafood is a favorite both at restaurants and seafood markets.
Depending on the time of year, you may want to try your hand at catching your own shrimp, crab or fish. Hunting Island has a wonderful fishing pier, and fishing off of the beach and in the creeks is permissible. For information about SC fishing regulations and licensing, visitors are advised to visit the website for the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources.
If you are interested in exploring farther afield, historic Savannah, Georgia and Charleston, SC are easy day trips. Savannah is a little over an hour away, Charleston about two hours. And the Hilton Head/Bluffton area, with outlet shops galore, is about an hour away.

We took one last beach trip for 2023. The place was amazing. Our family relaxed on the beach and spent hours on the back deck overlooking the ocean. Great place and wonderful hosts.
This was one of our best beach vacations. Everything was perfect! Clean, well-stocked kitchen, beach toys for the kids, stunning view of the marsh, and a golf cart for easy access to the beach. Excellent communication with the rental management agency. No problems. Would definitely stay here again.
This house was amazing! The back porch views were a highlight for us. It was EXTREMELY clean, well organize, and well stocked. Sea Island Rentals were so easy to work with and helped our check in and check out process go very smoothly. We can't wait to rent this house again.
The house is very clean with very beautiful art decorations. The gadgets, pots, and pans in the kitchen is more than we could ask for. Location is good and the golf cart adds more convenience. Definitely one of the best!
We really enjoyed our stay in the Oceanmarsh Subdivision. The house was exceptionally clean and well appointed. The staff at the property management company were very helpful and friendly and along with the property owner made us feel very welcome! The added bonus of the golf cart just made the stay even more enjoyable. We hope to be able to come back soon!
Home was clean and very nice. Staff on property was amazing.
This house was fantastic. Smelled very clean upon arrival and was perfect for our family of 5. My only complaint is that I was under the impression we could get a few libations from the Club House pool area but it's been closed (for a while now). Even so, would definitely come back to Harbor Island! It is beautiful, not crowded, a great place for families (especially young children- the tides/beaches are great for them) and over all just a really nice place! Also, the golf cart made it all the more fun. We now say we can't go anywhere that does not have one. =) Thanks for sharing your home we hope to be back!
We had a wonderful relaxing vacation despite the weather. It was our first time staying on Harbor Island and we’ll definitely be back. Loved looking out on the marsh and seeing all the various marsh birds. Super place with everything you need for your stay.
We were seeking a comfortable home located in a scenic and relaxing location to celebrate the long-awaited end to 2020 and, most importantly, my wife's birthday. This house surpassed all of our expectations. Not only was it sparkling clean and well equipped, the marsh / ocean views off the back deck were spectacular. The golf cart was also a huge bonus, and the owner even had a small lighted Christmas tree greeting us upon our arrival!
This was a great place to spend time with my family. My children are 8 and 5 and loved seeing all the ‘creatures’ as they called them. Overall a great house.
