Ocean Views, Easy Access to Best Beach on Island! - Vacation rental home in Fripp Island, SC

About this Property

• Sleeps 9
• 3 Bedrooms
• 2 Bathrooms
• Private vacation home

Boardwalk to the Beach only 1 home away.

Savor uncrowded beaches, fishing, boating, and bicycle paths all over the island.

Fripp Island is a wildlife sanctuary, with deer grazing in the yards, over 170 species of birds, alligators in the lakes, dolphins playing in the waves, and Loggerhead sea turtles nesting and hatching on the shores.

The main home is 3BR2BA with beds for 8.

There is a 1BR1BA guest home roughly 10 few feet behind the main home that you may rent for an additional fee per week. This has a queen in the bedroom and a twin in the LR/DR/kitchen area..

I try to rent from a Saturday OR to a Saturday during the summer season because that's when I have to make nearly all my income for the year, and that's when most weekly guests wish to arrive/depart. If I "cross the week-end" I'm much more likely to end up with little pockets of days that are very difficult -- or impossible -- to rent. My goal is to avoid short pockets of unrented days and also to allow people looking for a full week to be able to rent from Saturday to Saturday.

I am not offering luxury cards this year and, as far as I know, the only way to get them is through a home owner who is offering them.

Golf cart rented separately.

Our top Vacation rental tips:

Finding your perfect rental:

• The earlier you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental properties are booked very early. Reserving your rental six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and book your rental property.
• Reserve your rental home in the Fall or Spring to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Property management companies usually offer their guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Beaufort, SC visitors guide magazine upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great information, travel guides contain offers and deals for nearby tours and attractions.

Choosing and booking the right Beaufort, SC rental home:

• First, have your group commit to date ranges and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Ocean Views, Easy Access to Best Beach on Island! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Beaufort, SC rentals search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is regularly available on booking websites. If they are not listed, call the host before you book the property. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds. You'll need to establish what bed configuration is suitable for your family.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you must book a pet-friendly vacation rental. Request details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Note that some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Are you looking for unique amenities? Most websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental

Advice for your stay:

• Be sure you get the owner's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home. We recommend storing the manager's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Keep your rental home locked while you're away! Don't let crooks spoil your family vacation.
• Make a record of any damages to the property during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are valuable if a dispute arises.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are a great resource to find the best local attractions.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can often help. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Double-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental one final time and look for damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host is not available, remember to take video and pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property managers rely on good reviews to propel future reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
