Newly renovated cottage in Sea Pines. Private setting with a short walk to beach

Escape to this beautifully renovated 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom Night Heron cottage nestled in the heart of Sea Pines. Surrounded by towering pines and lush Lowcountry foliage, this private retreat offers peace, charm, and modern luxury — just a 3–4-minute walk to the beach through a serene wooded path.

Set within Hilton Head’s iconic Night Heron community, this architecturally unique, nine-sided cottage combines the charm of its original design with sleek updates and thoughtful details. Vaulted ceilings and walls of glass bring the outdoors in, while the spacious screened-in porch invites you to relax and take in the sights and sounds of nature.

Inside, you’ll find a completely remodeled interior focused on comfort and quality. The fully equipped kitchen features premium appliances, ceramic tile flooring, an undercounter refrigerator/freezer to maximize space, and a dedicated wine fridge for your favorite bottles. The cozy living area offers free streaming TV, stylish decor, and a warm, welcoming vibe throughout.

The king bedroom features a new Nectar mattress for a restful night's sleep, and the updated bathroom includes a walk-in shower and modern fixtures. This is a space designed for relaxation, recharging, and reconnecting with the natural beauty of Hilton Head Island.

Guests also enjoy access to the Night Heron community pool, complete with recently upgraded shower and changing facilities, just a short stroll from your front door.

Anniversary Trip

Great little beach bungalow for my husband and I. We have stayed in the Night Heron bungalows before and this one did not disappoint. Spacious for 2 people, close to the beach with a secluded feeling. The bungalow had everything we needed for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. We would certainly book again!

Wonderful location

We love Night Heron. Very quiet and beautiful. The condo is very nice and we enjoyed our stay. We have e-bikes so this is a nice location to the gate to ride on the Island since they are not allowed in Sea Pines. Also very close to the beach. Next time, as a personal preference, I would like a dishwasher and larger refrigerator and freezer. The communication was great - we had a great stay.

Great location.

We stayed here for a long weekend (4 nights) over Memorial Day. Location is great…just inside the Sea Pines Gate with an easy bike ride/walk to the beach. Screened deck was a great place to unwind and relax. Listing said there was a dishwasher but there wasn’t. Not a huge deal for us as we ate out most meals.

A great location, just a fourth a mile away from where our main group (15) where staying. Perfect for two people. One missing, amenity.. a freezer, which I "assumed" there would be. After checking amenities, it was not listed, nor was the small refrigerator.....but, thankful it was there. Lesson learned don't "assume". A lovely week!

Disappointed

Great location but this unit is old and fairly nasty. Could use a complete remodeling and new updated furniture and appliances. Really bad bug problems. Lots of roaches and ants stayed with us too! Parking for this unit is a shared parking area with unit next to ours. It’s barely big enough for two medium to large vehicles. Probably will not book this unit again.

We wish you would have let us know about the bug issues - while they are a part of life in Hilton Head, we could have sent the regime over to do an extra pest control treatment.

This property is poorly maintained and was not adequately cleaned. Very outdated

Front porch rail covered with nut shells (stuck to railing) and other detritus and back deck screens and floor very dirty. Rug on back deck looked as though it had never been washed. Kitchen floor sags so table is very uneven. Absolutely no chairs except for those at the kitchen table. Only a sagging couch in living room. This could be a nice property if maintained properly and updated. This unit has not been well cared for. Roof actually has moss growing on it.

We are new owners of this unit and are working hard to make our little cottage an enjoyable place. We wished you would have contacted our manager during your stay about your concern, as we pride ourselves on providing an enjoyable guest experience. The front porch rail is sometimes used by our resident squirrel, "Charlie". We have repainted the front porch rail and since then "Charlie" seems to avoid eating on the rail. The screened porch is cleaned weekly, and we try to keep the screens and outdoor area as tidy as possible. The kitchen table did slightly rock on the floor, because the table was old. We have purchased and installed a new kitchen table and chairs that do not rock on the floor. We have also purchased and installed two new sitting chairs, a cute little side table, and have added a new coffee table. We have also installed some outdoor lights on the screened porch. We appreciate your feedback, and although we feel the 1-star review is harsh, we have made some upgrades to the cottage in response to your concerns. We regret that you did not contact us so we could address your concerns during your stay and deliver the excellent guest experience we strive to achieve.

Right price, right location!

Check in/out process was quite easy, as was finding the property. Notified prop mgrs. of an issue on arrival - broken, rather definitely on its way to being broken coffee table - but never heard back for the week we were there. Short 5-10 min. walk to beach, 1 mile from Sea Pines beach club house (if u want to park there, get a spot EARLY, they don't allow parking for VRBO folks after first 50 spots are taken). House was clean on arrival, aside from some outside construction/electrical debris - no big deal though! Screened-in porch was quite welcome with seating for 4. If you're heavy into cooking your own meals, it's a bit of a challenge... counter space is limited (layout of house is what it is) though the dining table worked well enough ☺️ Outdoor hose/shower was definitely a plus. Parking a wee tight (have a Buick Enclave), but workable. WiFi worked great. All-in-all, would recommend! Thanks for letting us stay!

Helpful to know

This place was great. Relaxing and accommodating. Please know there is NO freezer. Maybe it was mentioned but I may have overlooked it. Both drawers are refrigerator only. If you stop on your way to this place, DON"T buy a 1/2 gallon of ice cream hoping to have it for dessert during your stay. You will have to consume it when you arrive. Also, no mirror that shows anything below the chest. (above the bathroom sink). I went to Walmart and purchased a full-length mirror that I brought home. Wanted to see if everything was "tucked in" before going out for the evening. The App and emails were very helpful. And wish the guard wouldn't have insisted on the $9 cash to enter the first day. Could have returned with the pass in literally 5 minutes.

Excellent remodel and manager responsiveness

Location, location, location. Just a short 5 minute walk to the beach, which is very important since beach parking is scarce. We were the first renters after the gorgeous February 2023 remodel project. The stainless steel under-counter fridge and freezer frees up more counter space above the pull out drawers. Next to the fridge is a slim wine cooler, which also works well for beer or hard seltzer. Excellent counter lighting for cooking. The new king size bed was very comfortable. We liked the contemporary style beach furniture and wall lighting. The best feature is the large screened in porch with teak furniture. Not only is it lovely but it extends the living area through easy access from the tv/kitchen area or the bedroom sliding glass doors. We also value the private view out every window due to the beautiful palmetto landscaping. The BeachBum manager, Jim Brown, was very responsive to our questions and requests. Check-in process is a breeze. Garbage is picked up twice a week: Wednesday & Saturday. You don’t have to move the bins from their outdoor storage space.

Nice little Getaway

My wife and I enjoyed our 7 day stay. We would stay here again. We did have a problem that was addressed by the owner. We first entered the house to find the under counter refrigerator turned off and the door open. This was alarming. After texts back and forth to remedy the issue I was able to fix it. The owner of the property had already arranged to install a new unit and he did so a few days later. I appreciate his willingness to expedite the issue. The house is very well decorated and the layout is cozy. The washing machine cold and hot are switched and a label says as much but I think this could be easily fixed in 5 min by switching the feeds on the back of the machine. Some people don’t want their clothes in hot water. Everything else worked as it should and the unit was clean. The king size bed was quite comfortable. The screened porch was a nice place to hang out. We enjoyed our stay in the house and the closeness to the beach, pool, and restaurants make this a place we would stay in again.
