New to the rental market. We invite you to savor our little bohemian getaway in the Lowcountry! Our home, lovingly known as The Skinny Dipper, features three fashionably appointed bedrooms and two full bathrooms, a freshly modernized and entirely supplied kitchen, a wrap around porch, and a enormous living room ideal for gathering and calming together. Sleeping arrangements are as follows: king bed in the upstairs bedroom; pull out couch in the upstairs loft; Queen and bunk beds in the second bedroom; and Queen in the third bedroom. Our home comfortably sleeps 8-10.  The Dipper also has a huge garage and intelligent TVs, ideal for lazy, rainy days. A six person golf cart is included by Beaufort Carts —by far the preferred means of Fripp transportation—with your stay, complimentary of charge. While we do not currently offer amenities cards, just a few steps away you’ll find a impressive private pool, along with a tree home and jungle gym for the adventurous little ones, all of which are only available to the modest community of Sawgrass Bluff. Amenity cards are not required to access the beach, the grocery store, or the deli. 
Our island community also has a striking boardwalk and a private crab dock from which you can appreciate a show stopping sunset over the marsh or quickly access the main thoroughfare to a white sandy beach.   
FAMILY PETS MUST BE PREAPPROVED.  You will be asked to sign a pet agreement and pay a non returnable $150 pet fee for the first pet and $75 for a 2nd pet. An additional $300 will be charged for guests that show up with a dog without approval. 

 Club cards are not available with this property and cannot be purchased elsewhere. Club cards are not required to access the beach, crabbing dock, Wardle's Landing pier, island parks, stores, the Marina deli or Springtide market.  The community center activities also do not require a card.

Our top Rental property booking tips and tricks:

Money saving strategies:

• Summer time is high season in Fripp Island. Booking your Beaufort, SC vacation rental in Fall or Spring months is our favorite way to save money on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable properties.
• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts offer promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies often offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.
• Look for your local Beaufort, SC visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great information, travel guide magazines have discounts for nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

Narrow your rental Search:

• Choose your vacation dates and spending budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Pet Friendly, Golf Cart included, community pool - 899 Marsh Dunes has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always available on booking websites. If not, email the property owner before booking your home. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Are you looking for special amenities? Most rental websites include search filters with amenity lists. Use these to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and some do not. Acceptable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the host about your furry family members before booking.

Advice for your stay:

• Add the owner's contact info to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Note any issues with the property during check in, and immediately send them to the host. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be beneficial if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, stereo or washer/dryer. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent many problems.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious visitors bothering your peaceful home. Employ the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would have not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Keep the property locked while you're out! Don't let thieves spoil your trip.
• Double-check the property to confirm that you've packed all belongings at check-out. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental a final time and look for any damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a terrific time? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property management company was wonderful, they would love to hear it. If anything was amiss and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
