Staying at this property was an actual dream. We were really torn on whether we should stay at a condo near Coligny beach, but I’m so glad we didn’t. Deer Island is stunning, the views are gorgeous, the house is incredibly clean and comfortable. The beds were great, strong air conditioning, and the Chinese soaking tub was awesome!! The host was very kind and flexible, and we are so excited to come back next year. If you’re stuck on location, don’t be, Coligny beach is a quick drive or scenic bike ride away. And the deer were so cute!!

This property was a wonderful location. The beach is lovely and quiet, the children also enjoyed the playground and a visit to stables. The house itself needs updating (bathrooms and kitchen) as many have said. However, it was clean and comfortable. One exception being the outdoor furniture, which is rusted and snapped - a hazard - beware if you sit outside and it hasn’t been replaced. A definite highlight was feeding the deer right outside the house steps!

This location is perfect for any getaway you need. It looks looks like a tree house and feels like one when you are inside. We were greeted by 5-7 deer and they were constantly around when we were coming or going. The neighborhood was very quiet. I never heard any loud music or parties. There are lots of beaches, restaurants, tours, and other things to do nearby so you wont have to look far for a day trip. The prices at nearby stores were more than reasonable. We ended up biking most of the island during our stay and the island is set up with bicycle paths which make it much safer. We look forward to staying here again.

Perfect Girls Getaway House

We absolutely loved this house!! So simple and sweet. Had many kitchen essentials & plenty of linens. The bikes were a huge hit in our party! We loved riding around the island. They provide spike ball and other sports equipment which we would have loved to use if it wasn’t raining :( Overall such a great experience with the property manager and this adorable treehouse. Highly recommend!!

Fun Fun Fun!

This is the third time we have stayed in one of Meredith Allain’s rentals on Deer Island and it did not disappoint. Check in was a breeze and the unit was clean and well stocked. Bicycles were included and that allowed us to take right off for our favorite haunts in Sea Pines as soon as we unpacked! The location was semi private and quiet and an easy walk into Harbor Town with it’s hustle and bustle. The best of both worlds. Meredith is very responsive. Any questions are quickly answered, any problems - we did have a small raccoon issue at one unit- resolved promptly. We hope to rent from Meredith for many years to come.
