A well appointed kitchen for everything you would need to prepare a impressive meal,. A Keurig coffee maker and also a drip coffee maker are available at the coffee bar. A Weber charcoal grille for grilling and a separate 25 LB. Ice maker for countless frozen drinks. A few cooking spices, olive oil, and some coffee left for you in case you forgot yours. And if you don't have what you need just text us and we will be right over.

We include our golf cart, named "Shortie", for you to appreciate while you stay at the Surf Shack so you can cruise all over the island or take a ride to the beach & eateries.

We are club members so you can purchase luxury cards to savor the Resort owned facilities on the island. These facilities include the eateries on Fripp Island, the swimming pools, the golf courses and tennis. The Deerlake neighborhood has its own private neighborhood swimming pool across the street from our home. This pool is available to our guests.

Our home is hidden off of the main road. A little walk through the tropical yard and you will find our blue home, sitting proudly, nearly right on the Lake! Makes one feel like you are on a boat, with all of the windows and the open floor plan.

We adore our family pets and would consider your pet too. We have air purifiers throughout the home to control dust, pet dander, allergens, etc. We do not have carpet but we do have area rugs so Fiddo needs to wash his paws before coming inside, please. And like all other pet considered units, there is a pet fee to pay.

We have Beach towels, beach chairs, beach toys and a beach umbrella.

And there’s something special about an outside shower and showering when you get back from the beach so we added a temperature controlled, enclosed outside shower!

**There is the possibility that you will see an alligator swim by every now and then. It is illegal to harass, feed, or do anything to an alligator but observe and admire. Also, our Lake looks like fun to fish in but you can't really. We do have amazing fishing spots all over the island and we will be happy to share that info with you if you like.

Tricks and tips to get the perfect vacation property experience:

Getting the best rental home value:

• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal SC. To find the best value, try changing your vacation week to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer warm temperatures, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. 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? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Some property managers offer promotional rates for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if rate reductions are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer customers an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Beaufort, SC area travel guide magazines which include special deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Beaufort, SC visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Narrow your Search:

• Select a designated group leader, choose your vacation week, and select a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your group requires. Wildlife viewers dream! Peaceful & so clean, golf cart incl., pool across street has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally accessible on booking websites. If not, email or call the host before you reserve the home. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds. You'll need to establish what bed configuration is best for your group.
• Some properties allow pets, but some do not. Acceptable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the property management company about allowable breeds and types before booking.
• Visiting for a specific event or attraction? Try a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

During your stay:

• Add the host's information to your phone. Understand and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, elevator or appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent a lot of concerns.
• Keep the property locked while you're gone! Don't let burglars spoil your vacation.
• To make certain that damages are not linked to your visit, make a record of any problem areas during check in. Call the rental manager immediately to relay your findings. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You will enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are a fantastic source for finding the best local beaches.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the property to confirm you've collected all belongings. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Leave a review! Property owners rely on great feedback to compel future bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your experience find their best rental home. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
