Thank you for sharing your beautiful home. We enjoyed a short stay with family but definitely would love to come back. The kitchen is beautiful and very well stocked and organized an made us want to stay in a cook. The beds were comfortable and rooms were spacious. But the best part of allll is the screened porch overlooking the gorgeous marsh for sunsets and moonsets, and birdingi. we even saw some otters. . We rented bikes and wer easily able to ride to beach for walks and down to fresh fields for groceries. Really enjoyed the natural surroundings and all n of the amenities.

Exceeded expectations.

We've vacationed at Seabrook a lot with our goldendoodle Bailey and this is our favorite marsh-adjacent rental. The views--particularly at sunrise and sunset--are spectacular. And, the morning Bailey walk on the path across the street around the pond were amazing. Every morning we saw a bank of white egrets and ospreys still snoozing in the trees just before day break. Just a great place.

Beautiful views, lovely condo, great location

We really enjoyed the property, especially the ability to watch the beautiful sunsets over the marsh and hear the dolphins splashing in it. As first time Seabrook visitors, the location was excellent and allowed us to have direct access to the Lake House for swimming (5 minute walk) and be within a short drive to multiple beach access points and the Island House and Ocean Club (each 10 minute drive). The property has four floors with some half-staircases, so it could be a bit tougher to watch small kids, but overall the stay was excellent and I would highly recommend it to others.

Beautiful Marsh Views

The Shelter Cove villa has a beautiful view of the Marsh. I loved sitting on the screened in porch in the morning hours reading, drinking coffee, and watching the tide as it came in or went out. Over our two week stay we saw the dolphins feeding in the marsh a few times. Once from the neighborhood pier where the dolphins were just a few yards away! We (Husband and I) found the villa spacious and comfortable. Kitchen has many great items for preparing meals. The breakfast/dining area was a good spot for us to work an hour or so a day. It was nice having the washer dryer so that we could pack light as well as wash the bedding/towels a couple of times over the two weeks. Seabrook was quite and peaceful as always. We rode bikes daily to the beach or Freshfields or just around the island. Because Shelter Cove is close to the Seabrook entrance, it was easy to stay mostly on the designated bike path. We would definitely stay at Shelter Cove Villa again!

1st time in Seabrook

Our family typically stays in Kiawah. We have found our new vacation location. Seabrook Island is nothing less than spectacular. The setting is relaxing, it is not commercial and it has everything you need for your get away! This particular unit has wonderful views of the marsh. My husband and boys went crabbing on the dock and I could watch them from the back screened in porch. Note there are a lot of stairs and we knew that renting this property. The layout worked our just fine for our family and it is dog friendly which was nice to bring our golden-doodle. The drawback is this property needs a deep cleaning. It seemed to have a stocked kitchen but we didn’t want to reorganize or even begin to unravel the cupboards jammed full of cooking items. We ended up eating out more than normal but that was our decision due to not want to clean this before using them. With COVID we were very surprised how unclean the property was.

Thank you Patti, we're so glad Seabrook was such a hit! We'd been going to Kiawah for years before someone told us we had to look at Seabrook - Wow - have never left! It has been a very busy summer - and the kitchen gets totally re-organized/dis-organized as everyone has different ideas where things should go. Properties are undergoing deep cleans as the schedules permit! We look forward to having you visit again! Take care, Nancy

Beautiful location, relaxing vacation

We Absolutely loved the location, looking over the marsh and sitting on the screened in porch frequently. The Villa was decorated really cute and had all the necessities we needed to cook some meals and just to relax and spend quality time together as a family. One suggestion would be to have the property managers inspect the Villa for anything that needed replacing or cleaning following the winter season. There were a couple of lights out and on the back screened in porch a couple of the cushions had mold spots on them ; also a lampshade was coming a part due to the wind and weather. But the screened in porch was our favorite place to hang out. PS we really enjoyed the unique and beautiful pottery Items throughout the Villa! P.s.s. It would be an added bonus if the amenity cards were included in the rental fee.

We appreciate your feedback. Unfortunately during pollen season it is very difficult to keep the pollen at bay -- you can clean the furniture daily and it will all be for naught. First person to comment on bedding -- thank you.
