About this Property

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 savor 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 handsome 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 (amenities cards required) for beverages, food, pool, exercise center, tennis or pickle ball. Or book your tee time on one of two manicured and spectacular 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 included). 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 comfortably 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 striking walk on well-maintained sidewalks and nature trails.

I look forward to hosting you!
