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 savor 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 appreciate 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 impressive fishing spots all over the island and we will be happy to share that info with you if you like.

When to book & When to go:

• Booking in the Spring or Fall is our best tip for saving money on your vacation rental. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable properties. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months.

• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner if your family qualifies for a price reduction.
• Property managers typically offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
