A group of us came in for the Kiawah marathon. The house was lovely, had enough space for everyone to have privacy, and the location was fantastic. We all agreed we would stay again.

This home is spacious, with plenty of room for parents, grandparents and little ones. Easy beach access. A nice little neighborhood that is pedestrian friendly. We also enjoyed the lovely paintings throughout the home, which we assume are original works of the owner. Wonderful!
