About this property

Entire place

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

Tennis Courts in front and the ever changing Marsh in back. Golf cart included.

Our Tennis Villa, "Surf Shack III" is located in the heart of Fripp Island, right off of Tarpon Boulevard, behind the Tennis & Pickle ball courts.

Our 2 story villa, with spiral staircase, has been upgraded (2023) with all new furniture, rugs, coastal decor, lamps, chandeliers and ceiling fans. The King bed has a new mattress, new linens and the most comfortable "Casper" pillows.

Be mesmerized by the incredible Salt Marsh that we are proud to call our back yard. Enjoy the expansive views of the beautiful spartina grasses and the ever changing tide waters that fill and empty out, twice a day.

Watch the Osprey, Red tailed Hawk, Kingfisher, and the Great blue heron (just to name a few) searching for their next tasty treat.

Don't be startled when you see antlers pass by the porch. It's just the Deer wandering by looking for a nice spot to take a nap.

We include our newer electric golf cart, that is a little lifted with bigger tires named "Big Red", for you to enjoy with your rental.

The Beach Club Complex is across the street along with the open air "Sandbar", Adult swimming pool, Olympic swimming pool, newly remodeled Fitness Center, food court, Beach Club restaurant, and Ocean View Lounge, not to mention the Majestic Atlantic Ocean and our beautiful white sandy beaches.

We hope you choose to stay with us and enjoy the wonders of vacationing with the Marsh as your backdrop. Our Fripp Island friend and Lowcountry book author, the late Pat Conroy, best describes the salt marsh like this, "At sunset we watch the saltwater tides rising with perfect congruence to the rising moon. No matter the time of day, the creek spreads out in the thrown coinage of sunset, bright as a centerpiece in the transcendental green of the great salt marsh".

If you are looking for additional rentals for vacation or if this property is booked, We also have Surf Shack I, Surf Shack II and Surf Shack IV for rent on the Island. All have been upgraded and decorated with Coastal sophistication for your relaxing & rejuvenating vacation.

Surf Shack I is a 2 bedroom, 2 bath, that sleeps 6. It is located in the private neighborhood of Deer Lake. with the neighborhood swimming pool across the way. It is Vrbo 2963273.

Surf Shack II is a poolside, studio apartment, located in the middle of the island by the Beach Club complex. It is Vrbo listing 1819883 and it sleeps 4 in a King bed and 2 bunks.

Surf Shack IV is a 3 bedroom, 2 bath home that sleeps 13 people in beds and is located in the quiet Fiddlers neighborhood. Included in this rental is a limo golf cart, ping pong table, fire pit, extra refrigerator and a pass to Hunting Island State park! This listing is Vrbo 3534400.

Short Vacation

Very nice accommodations, but could not get the outlets to work in either bathroom. A definite need for a blow dryer or electric shaver! Other than this we enjoyed the stay and I used the outlet downstairs in hallway by a mirror to do my hair!

Great house, remember to bring your own towels and wash clothes.

Are wash cloths not a common thing? I don’t remember seeing anything in the listing to let you know that there are none provided. The towels that are there are stained and dingy looking. Other than that, beautiful house. Will go back! (With towels and wash cloths)

Rocky start

The unit was tastefully decorated and clean. It was well stocked with the necessary kitchen supplies. The view off the back deck was beautiful and peaceful. Unfortunately there were a few flaws we had to deal with, a clogged drain line for AC that caused water to pour on bed that soaked all the way to mattress, upstairs bathroom receptacle didn’t work, and the headlights and taillights on golf cart didn’t work. The owner responded and someone came out the next day to fix the AC but nothing was fixed on golf cart. It wasn’t enough to run our trip, but it did start off pretty rocky.

Peaceful and Private

This was my second time staying here and it is my favorite spot to getaway for quiet reflection. Casual elegance, clean, central, cozy, convenient… all the good C words. 😁 I love the quiet backyard deck overlooking the marshes and wildlife. The perfect place to unplug! The place is stocked with everything you need (I was happy to find a coffee grinder!). Property managers were friendly and accommodating! I highly recommend.

Cute and clean

Great location. The tennis courts and paddle ball courts were not noisy (I was worried about that) but was pleasantly surprised. The decor was nicely done and most importantly, the place was clean. A bit of wear and tear here and there, but cleanliness is so important and this one was clean. Towels and bedding felt great.

1st time at Fripp

We had a great stay! We were not sure what to expect about Fripp Island but we were pleasantly surprised. Our Villa was just as described and the managers were kind and attentive to our needs. We plan to visit Fripp again and we would not hesitate to stay at this Villa again. Thank you!

Absolutely Gorgeous!!

I've stayed at a lot of properties on Fripp, but this villa was absolutely the most gorgeous! I spent a lot of time admiring the beautiful designer furnishings and details! The location was perfectly situated in the middle of the island, across the street from the beach, pool and food court. The convenience of having the golfcart available, without having to worry about a separate reservation for one, was a huge plus! The views of the marsh were breathtaking, the bed super comfortable and the place was spotless! We can't wait to go back and stay here again sometime soon! HIGHLY recommend this beautiful villa!
