Summary:

Spectacular Lake-Front Fripp Island Home! Resort Access Supplied! Golf Cart Supplied!



The Space:

Escape to a serene lakeside getaway on the north end of Fripp Island, where this cavernous 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home offers both seclusion and convenience. Located amidst the beauty of Blue Heron Lake, yet within painless reach of Fripp Island Resort amenities, including the Ocean Point Golf Links, pools, and dining options, this property provides the ideal balance of relaxation and entertainment. Some notable features of this home are the huge fenced-in backyard and its pet-friendliness!



Step inside to discover an inviting open floor plan on the main level, seamlessly blending the living room, kitchen, and dining area into the ideal space for gatherings and entertainment. Vaulted ceilings in the living room accentuate the feeling of spaciousness, while a 55" TV with streaming services ensures entertainment options are always at hand. The well-equipped kitchen features an island with ample breakfast seating, a wet bar, and plentiful cabinet storage, all with photogenic lake vistas streaming through sizable windows.



On the main level, two comfortable bedrooms await, including a master suite with a king-sized bed, an ensuite bath, and deck access. As well as a guest room featuring a queen-sized bed and a twin daybed. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms offer flexible sleeping arrangements, with one room boasting a queen-sized bed and the other featuring two full-sized beds and a bunk bed.



The outdoor spaces are ideal for appreciating the wonders of Fripp Island's flora and fauna, with a enormous front yard and fenced backyard providing plenty of room to roam. This home is pet-friendly (with a pet fee). The backyard getaway includes a roomy deck, a screened porch with an outdoor TV, a dining table, and ample seating, as well as a fire pit for cozy evenings under the stars. Whether you're calming indoors or exploring the island's offerings, this lakeside getaway promises an memorable hideaway for you and your adored ones.



*Note with gators in the water, it isn't safe to swim, boat, or fish in Blue Heron Lake. There are plenty of other places on the island to do those activities.



A 4-seat golf cart is included with your rental (excluding monthly units). Many guests park their cars upon arrival and use the golf cart as their primary form of transportation. It is a great way to leisurely take in the natural breathtaking beauty of the island and an amazing way to visit our unique amenities.



Guest Cards Included:

Also supplied in your rental are up to 14 guest cards! These cards are required for access to all resort amenities, including eateries and bars, pools (open year-round), golf, pickleball, tennis, exercise center, and more. Please visit our Hours of Operation page on the Resort site for current hours of operation, as some hours adjust seasonally.



Your unit is outfitted with a starter set of essentials like toilet paper and paper towels. Springtide Market & Deli (located at the front of the island near the guard gate) stocks all essentials needed for a longer stay as well as groceries, grab-and-go, liquor, beach accessories, and much more!



Getting to know Fripp Island:

Located 20 miles from Beaufort, South Carolina, Fripp Island is a gated, private island, comprised of about six and a half square miles. The vistas from Fripp Island are unlike others in the Sea Islands, as Fripp is the most seaward of them all.



Take advantage of the many amenities that Fripp Island has to offer. Fripp Island features a multitude of food and drink options for your enjoyment. With 2 championship golf courses, 5 pool complexes, 12 pickleball courts, 6 tennis courts, and three-and-a-half miles of uninterrupted beach, Fripp Island is an unspoiled treasure. The island also has a full-service deep-water marina, bicycle, paddleboard, kayak, boat, and golf cart units available.



Fripp Island is a designated wildlife sanctuary and is home to many whitetail deer and other wildlife. You will be sure to see them as you enter the island gates.

About the Area

Located near the beach, this vacation home is in Blue Heron Lake, a neighborhood in Fripp Island. Penn Center and York W. Bailey Museum are cultural highlights, and some of the area's activities can be experienced at Ocean Point Golf Course and Ocean Creek Golf Club.
