About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Please note: There have been instances where VRBO accounts have been hacked and scammers ask for payment via wire transfer. WE WILL NEVER ASK FOR PAYMENT BY WIRE TRANSFER!

Beautiful 2 story waterfront home on St. Helena with million-dollar view. As you sit on the dock, you have a nine mile view across the marsh to the next habital land. You can sit on the floating dock and see sunrise and sunset from the same seat. The home itself has 4 bedrooms and 4 baths. The separate guest house sleeps 2 more with a private shower and kitchen area. The home and guest house sleep 13 comfortably. If you need room for a 14th, it will be a fouton. Our home includes outdoor kitchen, fire pit, pool (not currently heated), stunning sunsets in a quiet area. Bring your boat, kayaks and fishing gear to the deep water dock with minimum 10 ft of water at low tide. Crab traps provided.

Right across from popular local sandbar and "Monkey Island", an isolated island previously used to research Rhesus monkeys. Many visotors have boated or kayaked across and have seen them. Please note: You are not allowed to beach a boat or other vessel or walk on Monkey Island. It is forbidden by law.

Perfect location, 20 minutes to historic Beaufort, 20 minutes to Parris Island for Marine graduation (Bridgett and I offer our sincerest thank you to those who serve and have served, are currently serving or are about to serve our great nation) , 20 minutes to stunning Hunting Island State Park with 4 miles of beaches and a lighthouse that you can climb. We include a yearly park pass with the rental in a centrally located notebook. This will get one car in for free.

Home includes a downstairs king bedroom, upstairs double queen bedroom (2 queen beds), upstairs double twin room (2 twin beds), upstairs king room, upstairs futon. Each room with its own private bathroom (except the futon). Separate guest house with a king bed, private bathroom and kitchen space.

Pictured fish were caught right off the dock.

Interior has been painted and upgraded from listed pictures, new pictures coming soon. We have gotten many questions about the pics showing one queen bed in the upstairs bedroom, rest assured, there are two.

For those of you who bring a boat, the nearest boat ramp is Eddings Point Landing, just 1.6 miles from the house by car. You drive right past it to get to the house.

At this point, we do not have satellite TV. We have TV's in the living area and each bedroom except the upstairs king. We have a large selection of DVD's and a player with each TV. Presently, we don't offer satellite TV but feel free to bring your FireStick or Roku.

We also offer a limited book exchange, so take a book and leave a book.

Lastly, I wanted to mention just in case...the interior of the home has a number of places where you have to step up or down to get to the next room. Our home is not handicap accessible or friendly for this reason. If you or your party is able is able to walk up the steps to the front porch to enter the front door, you will have no problems inside.

Additional note: We now have trash service. Yay! This is something not previously available to us. Pickup is on Wednesdays and Saturdays. The trash bin is a roller that you should move out to the curb on the days before. They do not pick up recycling, so you will still need to take that yourself to the recycling center if you choose to recycle (instructions in your welcome package should you book).

We have gotten a number of inquiries about the coffee makers. We have a standard drip and Keurig in the main house and drip in the guest house.

We trust you will enjoy your stay. If you have any concerns during your stay, do not hesitate to reach out.

During your stay at this vacation home, you'll be close to Coosaw Island. Features include an outdoor pool. Enjoy your stay with amenities like free WiFi and a private pool in the vacation home.

Great place for a family reunion

We stayed here 3 nights for a small family reunion-6 of us. The house was comfortable and clean inside. There are nice spaces to sit and visit outside as well. The atmosphere was quiet and relaxing. The house could use some updating and outside kitchen could use a good scrubbing but nothing that kept us from enjoying our trip. The owner was very responsive to texts and was very easy to work with. I would stay there again.

The Dock That Dreams Are Made Of

Escaped from the grind at this low country treasure of a home. Night one, kids caught 9 sharks off the dock. The views were spectacular. If this house had a theme song it would be Otis Redding’s Sitting on the Dock of the Bay. The home more than comfortably slept 4 adults, 2 teens, and 3 littles.

Beautiful area and home, but needs LOTS of work

Communication with Eric and Brigett were excellent, and there was more than enough room for all of us. However, there are several issues the owners should address: Black mold in the bathroom (under the sink in the upstairs). Guest house: broken handle on toilet, hot water doesn't run in the bathroom sink, and wall is coming apart above the shower head. Outdoor kitchen was filthy. Outdoor fire pit knob is broken, had to prop a table up against the knob to keep it lit. Outdoor chair pads by the pool and around the fire pit are filthy and need to be deep cleaned or replaced. Pool was to be cleaned 2 times per week, but he didn't show up until Thursday afternoon and that was the only time. Large fishing hook on the floor boards on the dock. Thankfully none of our grandchildren stepped on it. Tried to use the sweeper and it didn't pick up anything. The TV in room with 2 single beds has a Blu Ray player didn't work. The pier is not safe, left side in the middle. It dips down and despitately needs.The floor right inside the front door dips down under the rug so can't open the door all the way. The bed in on the main floor has no support in the middle so it dips down with 2 people sleeping int it. I left some items behind at the house and the cleaner was kind enough to get them sent back to me. She was great about keeping me informed.

Epic Estate

The location of the property was amazing! The backyard with the pool, view of the water, and hang out/bar area was pure perfection for a warm summer day. This trip was planned for memory making with 3 families, hoping to give our children an amazing coastal experience, and we accomplished that and more. The layout of the home was great. Every bedroom had a designated bathroom so there was no need to share! Common spaces were large enough to accommodate our group, but honestly, the outside was so phenomenal, we were rarely in the house. The neighborhood was quiet, just the way we like it. Previous reviews mentioned the dock leaning. That was not the case at all. Maybe the owners fixed it, but there was literally no lean at all. My husband and I are on intercostal docks several times a year, we assessed the dock in low and high tide, and our was very structurally sound. Just sharing in case that comment was a deterrent for someone. The dock was a sanctuary for seeing marine life. The drive to the property was beautiful because you're passing water on both sides or skirting next to a hobby farm. I can't wait to go back to this house!

Property Not As Pictured

This property is on a beautiful lot; however it is important to note it is not in the condition as pictured. A few notes: 1. The bugs inside are very bad. It is not from leaving a door open. The bugs are coming through the windows in the addition on the house and eat you alive at night. 2. The house is dirty. The ceilings and hvac vents are covered in dust. The carpet is full of stains and the floors are rotten/soft upon coming in the front door. Leftover used bar soap was left in the shower. The oven looked like it had never been cleaned. We had to request the pool be cleaned because it was so dirty. The owner did send someone out but said it is only cleaned once a week. 3. The dock is in poor condition. It severely slopes down on the left on one side and the right on another. Im not sure if its safe to walk on and the sides are also falling down. If I had kids, i would not allow them on the dock. 4. It is on a nature preserve and they burn stuff all day. Its hard to enjoy the pool when you smell burning mounds of earth all day. The animals are fun to look at. You also will need an SUV/ truck if it rains because the road turns into a lake in one area. Overall, my family was extremely disappointed in the condition of this property. It is not as pictured and needs to be professionally exterminated and the windows sealed and deep cleaned.

Pleasant Stay with Friends

Our stay was for three nights. We enjoyed wonderful views, lots of wildlife (especially birds), lots of space and different types of space with pleasant decor, a quiet area that’s not touristy, plenty to see and do within a 30 minute drive, generous amounts of cookware and towels, good internet speed. Travel to the house is partly on dirt road that became extremely wet/muddy with standing pools in the rain showers one day and the next day, though passable in a sedan. Indoor cleaning was mostly very good. Outside seating areas were plentiful but the seating could have been cleaner. Communication was adequate. Take your own shampoo and shower soap (there is hand soap, however). I would recommend staying here for the many good features.

Setting is a perfect retreat, home large and comfortable

We were a group of 11 ladies there for a retreat for 2 nights in Feb, the large common space and large bedrooms worked really well for us. The kitchen had everything we needed plus a nice assortment of seasonings plus any kitchen accessories one could want and a huge gas grill outside to work with. There are updates happening in and around the house. The setting is peaceful, almost no through traffic and very quiet neighborhood. The pier, glider out at the end made full moon even more magical! Eric was very clear about the check-in and check-out procedures a day or 2 in advance which I loved. I would definitely stay again!

Exceeded our expectations

Everyone day dreams about the perfect vacation, fun times with family and everything going so smoothly. But does that ever really become the case? This time it did for us. We had an absolute blast at this place during my son's USMC graduation. We fished, we played games, we cooked, we even became friends with a special needs deer that was always in the yard. We will absolutely be back if we are ever in the area again.

Amazing time

We love Saint Helena Island! We found this place to stay and it met everyone’s needs. We have avid fishermen in the group so the deep water dock and nearby boat launch were perfect. Plenty of space for the 4 couples and 2 children. Everyone had their own room and bathroom. The pool was amazing to enjoy with great views!! Outdoor kitchen area was nice for relaxing!! We will definitely choose to stay here again!!

Beautiful views

Our group of 12 people, ages 6 to 70, all really enjoyed our stay. Catching and cooking crabs was a highlight for several, as that is not something we can do at home. The outdoor pool provided a lot of fun since the weather was in the mid-90s each day. The views were amazing, allowing us to actually see both sunrises and sunsets from the dock. We enjoyed spotting dolphins and deer from the property. And everyone really appreciated that each bedroom had its own bathroom. We enjoyed day trips to Beaufort, Charleston, Savannah, and Hunting Island while there. A great vacation for our family!

Nothing Beats Low Country Living

We took a large family group down (8 adults, 4 kids, 1 infant) to St Helena Island for a nice long summer getaway in the SC Low Country. We’ve visited the Beaufort and Sea Islands area several times and it has easily become one of my favorite places ever! Everyone on the trip had a wonderful time and loved the house! The home is beautiful, exactly as described and was large enough to provide ample space for our entire crew. Being on the water with a dock to fish and having a pool for the kids and family was perfect! We did visit the beach at Hunting Island a few days but found staying at the home all day to be just as fun and relaxing. The sunrises and sunsets on the dock were equally as amazing and the wildlife around the house is plentiful to say the least! We caught several shark species, crabs, an eel, stingray, and other fish. We watched hundreds of dolphins from the dock, met the local friendly deer and enjoyed watching the crabs and birds. If you value character and relaxation over commercialization, you can’t go wrong with this one! Thank you for letting us vacation at your home! We’d come back a million times over!
