Wow! The best VRBO we’ve stayed at!!!
My husband, bro & sis-n-law stayed here April 23-30. What a fantastic stay! They stayed in upstairs suite since they could control a/c separate from downstairs. Total privacy for all! We are some pretty serious cooks and the kitchen was really perfect. Lots of everything plus stuff left by others. Golf cart was appreciated letting us do lookie-see trips around the island. We all fell in love with alligators and singing birds outside the deck. I would suggest to future people who love to cook…do your shopping in Savannah. The Publix store in Beaufort (?) was a sore disappointment. On the other hand, everyone LOVED the shrimp from Gay’s Fish Company. Strawberries were beyond delicious from local farmer markets! Would we do a return trip? YES!

Beautiful location
This property is located in a wonderful area on a small pond. We enjoyed seeing the alligators and all of the birds. The neighborhood pool also is a plus. We did have several hiccups during our stay. Initially, there is not a gas grill as listed. It is a charcoal grill. We did not bring charcoal and lighter fluid but the property management company promptly responded and provided those items. The house does not have hot pads or oven mitts--not a big deal, but we recommend that those items be added. Our biggest issue was the cooktop--it worked on our first night, but quit working on Friday morning. We made do on Friday night and have leftovers both on Friday and Saturday, but were disappointed as we all are cooks and had brought fresh seafood, pasta and produce. We contacted the property management company on Friday evening, but did not receive a response to the stove issue until lunchtime on Saturday. It was unable to be repaired while we were there and, while the property management company gave us the code to another property so we could use their kitchen, we were not able to access that property, resulting in eating leftovers for a second night. We did not specifically request a refund, but we were given a $300 refund, which was a nice gesture that we appreciate. Overall, this is a great property and we certainly will consider returning based on the location and assuming that the stove issue is rectified.

Paradise Found
The house was wonderful. Location perfect. The private pool was a great addition to all of the amenities available on Fripp. Kathy, the managing agent was so caring. Answered every question and resolved an issue immediately. After a 4 year absence this stay made us realize how much we missed and love Fripp Island.

Perfect birthday week
Our family had a fantastic time at this beautiful home. The house is perfect, great location, and in beautiful condition. The kitchen is extremely well stocked with dishes, and glassware. We had beautiful views of wildlife every day, and loved having a neighborhood pool, as the resort pools were very crowded. We would definitely love to come back again.

Amazing rental!
Thanks for sharing your amazing home with us. It is located on the back side of Deer Lake Community away from the main street noise. It is in a quiet, secluded location. The house has an open floor plan with comfortable furnishings and an amazing screened in porch overlooking the lake on the east side (great for watching the sun rise while drinking an early morning cup of coffee). the kitchen is well stocked. It has everything one needs to have a wonderful visit on Fripp Island!
