I am happy to share my second home with you. You will have the entire place to yourself. We provide a 4-seat golf cart, body boards, beach chairs and umbrella. Amenity cards are available for purchase to Fripp Island Resort, which give you access to golf (you can see the 16th tee box through the window), swimming pools, eateries on the island, tennis, pickleball and much more. There is also plenty to appreciate without the cards: beach, cycling, watching wildlife, etc!

We are sandwiched between the Ocean Point Golf Course and the Ocean! Walk, drive bicycle or cart around our pretty neighborhood with charming vistas and vibrant wildlife. Take a hike on a close by trail, or hit the beach from one of 30+ beach accesses. Head to the beach club (luxury cards required) for beverages, food, pool, exercise center, tennis or pickle ball. Or book your tee time on one of two manicured and breathtaking golf courses. Catch some fresh seafood for dinner, and don’t forget to take the kids to the activity center and make a stop at Hunting Island State Park (pass supplied). Some facilities are open seasonally on Fripp and Hunting Islands.

We provide a golf cart for cruising the island. There’s plenty of cart parking at the beach access points. You can also get around the island conveniently by car. Car parking is available at the Marina, Ocean Point GC, the Beach Club, Tennis Club, Wardle Point, Ocean Creek GC, and the stores at Springtide Market. Many people choose to rent bicycles for getting around the island, and it’s also a handsome walk on well-maintained sidewalks and nature trails.

I look forward to hosting you!

Fripp Island rental home tips:

Getting the best value:

• Booking your vacation rental in Fall or Spring is our best tip for saving money on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable homes. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Beaufort, SC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers often offer their guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Find a copy of your local Beaufort, SC visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guide magazines contain money saving offers on local tours and attractions.

• Start by having your group commit to the best dates and a spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your group requires. Birdie's Bungalow on Fripp - Across from Golf and Ocean - Cards Avail/Golf Cart has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, email the host before you book the property.

• Is your family looking for particular amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities. Use these filters to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental

• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by locking the rental while you are away, just like you would back home.
• Re-check the rental property to confirm that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
