Further details for this holiday house rental in Fripp Island, USA

Spend your days at the pool, beach, or just relaxing and exploring the island on your golf cart watching the deer and other wildlife . Park your car when you arrive and travel this small island on your own golf cart. Watch the deer from your porch in the morning while sipping coffee. Ride you golf cart to the end of the island in the evening for unforgettable sunsets. Quiet peaceful area! Wonderful nature abounds. You will soon see why Fripp Island and area, has been chosen to film so many movies, such as Forrest Gump, Prince of Tides, and Jungle Book. Fripp Island is also the chosen home of author Pat Conroy, famous for writing one of my favorite books, Beach Music. July through October is nesting time for the turtles on the beach. If you come during this time be sure to follow directions on visiting the sites.

Wonderful ttime!

Review Submitted: February 7, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2008
We had a great time on Fripp and enjoyed the house tremendously. The house was very nicely furnished, had everything we needed and the beds, as advertised, were very comfortable! Sitting on the screened porch in the mornings and evenings were delightful...lots of wildlife to watch. Was nice to have the golf cart and beach bikes to explore the island. Debbie explained the amenity card program and we are glad we decided not to worrry about getting them. The kids had a great time and loved walking the beach.Friends that had cards went to the restaurant one night and said the food and service was not worth the cost of cards and did not go again. We were there for the beach and neighborhood pool so we didn't care about playing golf at $100 a round and enjoyed cooking at home or going just off island to eat (the cards cost $50 each so we could basically eat for free by keeping the $200, 4 cards,in our own pocket). Thanks Debbie for a wonderful week..loved all the deer in your yard ....your home was exactly as advertised and we will be regular vacationers. We would definately recommend Debbie's house to anyone wanting a restful, tasteful, comfortable vacation.

Oh, deer!

Review Submitted: October 22, 2008 Date of Stay: October 2008
A nice getaway in the low country of South Carolina. Wildlife friendly Fripp Island is not far from Beaufort and Port Royal, two small towns with an enviable abundance of well-kept period homes and interesting restaurants, with some amusing shops and art dealers thrown in for good measure (the Rhett art gallery in Beaufort and McPhearson's Serious Barbeque in Port Royal were very nice indeed!) This house and the community on Fripp was everything as advertised and I would give it 5 stars if it weren't for an absence of the smaller amenities such as dish towels and extra trash bags: toilet paper and facial tissues were also at premium. We had a small problem with the air conditioning, and needed to replace the aging coffee maker. The owner felt so bad she offered an additional week for free at our convenience in the off-season. Overall, a pleasant stay. One cautionary note, however. If you plan on playing golf on what looked like two very nice courses on the island, one of them a Davis Love signature course, you will need an amenities card to do so. You can purchase one before you come down I'm now led to understand (had we only known!). We had to play off-island, which was a bit of a drive, and the courses we visited were only so-so. A slightly irritating inconvenience, but oh, well. Our thanks to Debbie the owner and Dee at her rental agency!

Nice looking, but watch out for the bugs!!

DeeO Simpsonville, SC
Review Submitted: September 11, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
Our week was far from ideal. We were initially greeted with a house with broken airconditioning and 6 dead roaches thru-out the house. The roach problem worsened until they were actually climbing on us. At that point, we packed up and left after only 3 nights (the first night, we were moved as the house temperature was 83 degrees). We have tried to negiotate with the owner for a PARTIAL refund. She will only offer additional time in the home.
Would you like to return to a house like that? And, don't even ask what was on the wall in the bathroom!
Do yourself a favor and find another place to stay on Fripp Island!
Owner's Response: I guess one bad review in 4 years is not bad, although I still hate to have unhappy vacationers. It was a shame that the air conditioning chose to stop working on a Sat evening. I was on the phone immediately and put them up in a very nice 3 bedroom condo for the night and had the air conditioner repairman out to the house first thing Sun morning to put freon in the unit. I have an account for pest control and he had sprayed just a few days before and my guests told me there were a "few dead" palmetto bugs on the floor. The area is very wooded and there has been a lot of rain which has brought a few palmettos in the house. They, the renters, were back in the house Sunday morning and on the phone seemed very pleased and thanked me for moving them and being so prompt in the matter. Unfortunately by Thursday afternoon there was a threat of a tropical storm and they decided to leave Friday late afternoon. They were origionally going to leave Sat at 10 am which was their checkout time. They had wanted to do a couple of the basin tours (boat) but the tours were cancelled due the impending storm. Since they had to leave 1/2 day early they insisted on 1/2 of their money back. I had offered them a weeks free stay at any time that was available but they wanted their money back to go someplace other than Fripp, since they had now been there. It's unfortunate when you run into renters like this but it is a consolation that I have had 4 years of wonderful renters with wonderful comments on my home and Fripp.

Beautiful view, lovely home.

All the way from Louisiana Shreveport, La. USA
Review Submitted: April 16, 2008 Date of Stay: March 2008
We came back to visit after 12 years to show our oldest daughter where she was born and we had such a great time!!! The house is lovely and the creek view is beautiful! It was fun sitting outside in the screened in porch each morning drinking coffee and each evening watching the deer and raccoon scurry around. The golf cart was a wonderful plus it is the best way to get around!!! Off the Island we recommend Steamers to eat on ladys island.And if you like subs... SUBSTATION!!! we wish we had one down south!!! The lady and sons was great and we got to meet Paula Deen and her sons in Savannah!!
I loved the house it had everything you could need and more.... the Beaufort history book was great as was all the books laying here and there should you want to read.
Lots of movies and games &Loads of cook books as well... Loved the Huge tub!!!! Again the view was great you really cant believe how close you are to the creek and a very short golf cart ride to the beach!!! ( BIG PLUS-Deposit was sent back to me within 2 weeks ..very prompt)Thank you for everything, we will be back!!!
